Where can I get a hold of a new belt för the drivers side (left hand driver). Dark grey -91 LS 400 .

hi, i didn't take it out, as i couldn't see how it could come out. some have punched holes in it, which seems counterproductive? i just got the tank out of the car, sprayed brake cleaner in there and 'whisked' w/ a small paint brush, turn upside down, etc... seemed to work. be careful not to punch it. Thank you for answering! I think you are right. What kind of symptoms did you have ?

First I must tell you that I am an electronic technician that have worked with electronics (faultfinding/repair on component level) for more than 30 years and I live in Sweden. By the information I found on internet I understand that there is some DC/DC or DC/AC converters mounted to obtain high voltage for the light-tubes on the instrument panel. I know from my own experiences that those aluminium smd capacitors does not last for very long! I shouldn`t have any problem of exchanging them. BUT the only problem I have is that the needle for the speedometer went of today (only lit ¼) and I wonder if this is really related to bad capacitor or if I have to exchange the tube that lights up the needle. It is sometimes “flickering” like it is about to lit but it does not lit up fully. I have not found any information about this “lamp” or how it is done to exchange it. Another issue is that some of the bulbs for the buttons and display (radio and AC) is broken and I would want to know the voltage and amps for the bulbs ( 12-14V 20-80 mA ?) so that it will be “back to normal” again.

I am planning to clean the filter in the tank above the powersteering pump. Is it really possible to get the filter out without damaging the tank?
