Hey, Scannerdanner,saw this and #1 and #2 Prizm PO171, which I now have
plus a PO301 and PO420. It goes to the tech shop tomorrow and I fear the
cost of 4 injectors @$95 each, this site, partsgeek.com (from Amazon ) has
re-mfg's for $29 each, and 5 good reviews from people who' ve bought them.
Would you try them ?. They also have that Denso (new ) 02 sensor for

Your constant verbal guidance is appreciated. I was just telling my wife
what a great technician/instructor you are. If I could go back in time I
would have definitely continued in the automotive field.
Thank you sir.
One last: Do you do any OBD1 testing? I have a 1992 Ford Taurus with
376,000. My baby.
I miss working on cars, I was really big into it and worked at Honda and
went to Honda School in Weston,FL. now I'm completely burned out on cars
and only like working on them if it's for myself because I don't have bs
deadlines, I don't have warranty times being cut back because they like to
penalize techs for experience when they find a faster way of doing things
and "still being the right way to fix it" I don't shortcut but they always
cut labor times when they find out we do it faster.
I think he jumped too fast to the conclusion that the binding was in the
rack. Twice, I have had steering shafts go bad. They have U-joints in
them and when they go bad, the wheel binds as you turn it. You need to
check that before possibly pulling a perfectly good rack. They are
generally not hard to remove and once off, it is easy to tell if a joint is
bad. My bad ones were on a 2003 Town Car and a 1995 Dakota.
If wobbling is IN THE DIERCTION of the vehicle (IN LINE) it means the
wheels are out of balance. If the wobbling is ACROSS the vehicle, it's
coming from the engine flywheel, or another heavy mass INSIDE the engine
compartment (clutch components, etc). This is a general rule.
@hom2fu yes, and don't use the type fork he used in the video if you are
reusing the outer tie rod ends. The fork will damage the grease seals. Just
give the knuckle a good rap with a BFH and it will fall out.
Hey I got a question, I have an 01 alero 3.4 when I drive at higher speeds
like 40+ the steering wheel wobbles for 3 seconds then stops for 10 seconds
then it woobles again, what could it be?
