Hey everybody,
Just bought a dk green 94'ATX with 107,000 miles for a great price. But it has a couple of probs that need to be worked out.
#1. SMOKES. This is the major problem. It is definately motor oil, and is coming from the bottom half of the engine. Replaced the O/C switch and that didn't help. I'm afraid it's a rear main seal. Is there any way to confirm this or rule it out. Any other suggestions?
#2. Vibrations. The car shakes a bit above 50mph. It is not so much in the steering wheel, but you can really see it in the dash. There was some left rear inner tire wear, but I think that they rotated it from the front before it was sold.
Was thinking lower ball joints, but it will probably need an alignment too, although it drives and stops straight.
#3. Driving lights/fog lights. I'm getting nothing from the driving lights. The switch seems a little stiff, and the right light mount is busted, but I'm not really sure where to start looking for the problem. I doubt that both bulbs would go, so I think that it may be the switch or a wiring problem.
Any help would be much appreciated. I love the car and it would be really great if I could get this stuff worked out.
Thanks!!!
