Re: 1992 245 Windshield Wiper Problems

So I took out the stalk, cleaned the connections and ground, and now I get a little but out of the high speed. not much, usually it gives up after about half a wipe (its really slow), but its something. I looked a bit at the inside of the motor and everything seemed fine. I checked and made sure tha...

Re: 1992 245 Windshield Wiper Problems

Thanks, great resource! Ok, I'm a gigantic noob when it comes to electrical problems and can't access my car at the moment, so let me know if what I'm thinking makes any sense. http://cleanflametrap.com/wipers/wipers_high.jpg It looks like the connection 53b makes inside the motor here (this connect...

1992 245 Windshield Wiper Problems

I have a couple of problems with my windshield wipers I've been trying to figure out. The first one is that the high speed doesn't want to work at all. When I select the high speed setting, the windshield wipers freeze in place. The second issue is that the tailgate washer is totally unresponsive. I...

Re: 1992 240 RPMs dont drop after letting off gas

I just sprayed the mechanisms around the throttle spool with some WD-40 and (with the car off) pushed the pedal down to the floor and up several times. The throttle is more responsive than ever, turns out these guys get a bit sticky after 20+ years. I did check on the linkage and the cable, it seems...

Re: 1992 240 RPMs dont drop after letting off gas

Upon further examination, the RPMs do drop, but it takes a substantial amount of time. It is especially slower at lower speeds.

1992 240 RPMs dont drop after letting off gas

I was in an accident about a week ago, and after three days of work and a sale at the local pick and pull, the car is looking like nothing ever happened, and there are only a few symptoms left. One such symptom is the throttle. When I use the gas pedal, the RPMs rise normally, but when I take my foo...

Re: 1992 240 Clock not even right 2 times a day

So I finally went on down to the pick and pull, got a new clock and installed it, still no good. I'm not sure if the new clock is bad too, or if there is something else out o place. Any thoughts?

Re: 1992 240 Wagon Low speed stalling

A few months ago I bought a 1992 240 wagon from a seller who had just driven it down from Portland, and when I first got the car, it had this problem. It came around every few weeks just as you said, and I suspected a leak in the vacuum hose, which was confirmed. I replaced the hose, and after a cou...

Ok. I had an old rubber mat handy and I just stuck a little piece of that in there, works great.
