| heavy gas-soaked carb floats causing overrich condition? | 09 Aug 2005 14:51 GMT | 5 |

Have a recurring trans pan leak at the rear. Fixed it 5 years ago when filter was changed with a new pan gasket, no sealer, and its leaking again now. I guess it is leaking in that spot because the pan is a bit warped. Not a big problem since it is time to maintain it anyway now, ...

Would bad wheel bearings possibly cause pulsing while braking? At 40 mph with light braking I get a sharp wobble in the steering wheel. At 30 mph and below I get a cyclic pulsing while braking, like a warped rotor.
