I didn't want to continue to make new threads for each problem, and i have about 3 or 4 that I'd rather just list here and maybe get some answers for all of them, perhaps the estimated cost of fixing them also.

1.) Windshield wipers in front and back only work on the highest setting, they also wont return to the right spot after turning them off.

Do i need a new windshield wiper motor?

2.) Staticy feedback when the cd receiver is on or in standby mode, its more prominent when I've got a cd playing in it rather than just the radio... and i swear when its in standby i can almost faintly hear the frequency of the engine behind me out of 1 or two of the rear speakers... weird.

Maybe if i just reinstall the whole stereo will this fix the problem?

3.) sometimes the car will sputter and die seconds after being turned on, or start sputtering until it catches if I've just got it into drive or reverse when im getting ready to go somewhere.

Starter? Injectors? Carb? I dont know. :(

4.) Yesterday while going down the highway the gas pedal stuck all the way in after i passed someone, so i promptly shut the car off and coasted to the side of the road with my hazard lights on... Its only happened this time but it was kinda scary.

???


Any feedback on these would be much appreciated. I really wanna get it back to 100% again, little problems like this bug me quite a bit.

Thanks!:salute:
 












1. Yes you need a new wiper motor in front. The rear only has one speed.
2.Check the grounds on your radio. May also be feedback from the fuel pump.Very common with these vehicles.
3.Try cleaning your maf and iac will do wonders.
4. Check your throtttle cable and springs at the throttle body.

Try doing a search on these topics there is a ton of info on this site and many have experianced the same problems.

Good luck.
