A good way to check your struts is to lean your whole body onto the car itself and push it up and down. Listen for squeeks and see how your car responds to the bounce you're giving it. Changing the strut on that car is not that hard if you're mechanically inclined. You just got to take out your carpet panels in the trunk and remove 3 bolts on top next to the gas tank. And there's a couple of bolts under the car that needs to be taken out. The rear struts are so much easier to do than the front. But you need a spring compressor to take out the springs to change the struts.
There is a product called Engine Restorer 8 cylinder that i often use. It works very very well. It slows down the consumption of oil. I'll let you read the labels on the can for the wonders it can do for an old engine. Look for it at any auto store.
If you open your hood, you'll see tubes attached to your water sprayers. Over the years, they get clogged or sometimes ripped and unplugged. Check them while someone sits in the car to spray the windshield. You should be able to see water flowing thru them. If u don't, something is clogged along the way. If you need to adjust them, go directly to the sprayer and there is a tiny tiny flat head screwdriver that can be fit in there and turned to adjust the power of the sprayer.
Check your ac hoses for leaks again from a second mechanic shop for a second opinion. Make sure you're using the right type freon and also have the mechanic check for pressure in your hoses. The bad smell is coming from your ac filter canister behind the glove compartment. It needs to be changed.
Thanks, I did check to see if there was a filter, they said the 92 is the only car without a filter but I could jerry rig a filter by unscrewing the kick plate on the passenger side, and under that I could do it, what do you think?
