texxclark Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Well I had been having some real bad groanin from my power steering pump. Went in and both the pump and high pressure hoses were bad. When we were in there we replaced the serpentine belt, and found that thetiming belt was dry rotted as well. Since we were almost at 100K we went ahead and did that too. After a full tune up my gas mileage has gotten much better. Apparently the car had all of the original plugs, wires, etc. Full cleaning of throttle body. lots of money, but im hoping that this lasts me a couple years now with no major expenses. tex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
