    Bleeding brakes

    Got it!! First off. Thanks to everyone again. I really did t want to spend the money on a new caliper since this one wasn't in bad shape. My buddy who sold me the car told me he stripped it the first time while taking it off. He managed to get it off, and instead of switching it out with a...

    System Too Lean (Bank 1 & 2)

    Help! Won't start!!

    I just rechecked the ignition switch wire on the relay located on the firewall. Without turning the key I am getting 4.48v. Then when I hit the switch I get 4.51...? Is it my ignition switch?

    Which other little wire? The starter solenoid on the firewall has wires going to the two big post and only one little wire going to the little post. The other little post has no wire. Or the little wire running down to the solenoid on the actual starter itself under the car?
