Re: Strut bump stop installation

You betcha I did.
The issue is that from the shoulder of the strut shaft to the top of the big rubber cushion on top of the assembled strut mount is far less (by more than an inch and a half) than the thickness of the shoulder in the bump stop. When fully extended, the strut shaft does not protrude ...

Strut bump stop installation

Been chasing the front end clunk. Replaced the front struts, the front control arms and bushings, the ball joints, and now the strut mounts, bearings and bellows(I was stupid not to do that with the struts - don't be like me.) Noise was gone for a day but has now returned at just a little less ...

Re: 960: which ignition module is which?

Here's the answer to my question: the module closest to the firewall controls the even cylinders; the module toward the front controls the odd. This may vary, as there is enough cable to swap connectors on the modules. If this is the case, the cables will be under some stress as they really aren't ...

Re: 960: which ignition module is which?

All connectors to the coil packs and their wires have been replaced. Swapping the amplifiers (and the amplifiers only) moved the misfiring cylinder and the resulting code.

Re: 960: which ignition module is which?

Yes. Misfire code was p0305 (cyl 5) prior to swap. Following, it became p0302 (cyl 2). No other changes made.

960: which ignition module is which?

I have a 1996 960.

Realizing that there are two ignition modules and one controls the even numbered cylinders while other controls the odd, which ignition module (power stage) is which?

Switching the two modules moved my uncooperative and elusive misfire from an odd cylinder to an even cylinder ...

Re: How do I install 960 air guide?

I have a 1996 960. On mine the front of the air guide is attached to the inside of the lower lip with the spring clips. The rear of the air guide has three slots. These mate up to three rotatable plastic spacers that are attached to the rear radiator support with short screws. To install the air ...

Re: 1996 960 Fuel Smell

I also encountered the leaky end cap and resulting fuel smell. While I awaited arrival of the replacement rail, I applied J-B Weld to the end cap and smoothed it with a putty knife. Smell gone, and the "repair" looked very natural.

1996 960 Alternator light "on" on cold mornings

Since the weather cooled this year, my charging system light began illuminating for a few minutes following cold startups. Except for this there are no symptoms.of an alternator problem. Battery isn't low, and the light goes out.

I've replaced the alternator and the belt and had no warning light ...
