    Odd popping sound off front end, plus another issue

    more noticeable at low speed, like maneuvering in a parking lot. particularly when brakes are being used. I can’t tell if it’s bearings in a joint or my brakes. 4 days ago had a fun experience on the highway coming home from work. Surging and loss of power on the freeway. Each time the surge...

    Hey y'all.

    So I have a question. I've been noticing what I am hoping is steam coming out from under my passenger side on cold mornings, and I watched it one morning coming from the corners of what looks alot like the part in this link...

    Hey y'all.

    Update: EGR and IAC valves are both clear, interestingly they are kind of a charcoal color inside but no clumps of anything that I could see. Just got my code reader in, so I'm gonna do some light reading, and see then pick my Baby's brain. Now attempting to locate my O2 sensors and save up to...

    Hey y'all.

    Not harsh at all, blunt in an effort save trouble later on perhaps, but not harsh. Both IAC and EGR I can easily get to, but how to clean them? I think I missed that in my digging around on here...

    Hey y'all.

    I was actually planning to buy a set of 6, after i took care of the brakes. right now the brakes and mileage/surging/shuddering are my bigger fish to fry, trickling down to whatever else may be plaguing my Baby. From everything i've read here and heard from guys i know, granted without having...

    Hey y'all.

    Honestly I can't say when her last tune up was. I'm working on getting a new EGR valve for her, her current one looks rather old. I'm also saving up to get a set of Bosch Iridium platinum spark plugs for her. I found the post explaining how to fix the windows, so that's a project in itself...

    Hey y'all.

    New to the site, found some nice info here to help me narrow down the known issues with my Baby. Perhaps over time I can learn more and get to the point I can fix her up myself. My Baby's known issues are listed in my signature.

    Strange vibration at lower speeds

    I'm getting similar vibes from my 1994 4x4 XLT auto, except it starts when I hit 55 usually, sometimes persists when I reduce to city speeds. When I rev up it stops, for a few minutes. On top of that her fuel gauge quit working. Sadly I am not a mechanicky owner, so any tips, pointers, anything...
