Hey everyone, I've got some time off work so it's been the perfect time for me to knock out some repair and maintenance items.
So far I have done:
- Plugs and wires
- Parking brake shoes and adjustment
- Oil change
Next up on the list is:
- Driver side door lock sometimes doesn't work or gets stuck in locked pos? It's a 97 sport, anyone else have this issue and a fix? Currently working on pulling the door apart without breaking any clips.
- Typical blend door or actuator not working Previous owner cut the little hole so I can manually adjust between hot/cold. I'll be ensuring actuator is working and if it is then I can order a new blend door. (Was thinking of doing the quick cut method I saw on forums last spring.)
Any suggestions or tips on the 2 remaining repairs?
Any other maintenance items? In the fall I changed tran,rear dif ball joints, tie rods, stabilizer bushings/links. etc
Thanks and hope everyone is doing alright during these trying times.
