Use an insulin hypodermic to inject a few drops of SAE 90 gear oil through
the rubber seal and into the ball assembly.  This will fix dry sealed ball
bearings.  If your car has 100,000 miles or more, you bearings are in need
of oil replenishment.

Do the newer cars have anything in the filler neck to discourage syphoning
gas? Seems to me some years ago they did, but not sure about now. Thanks.

I called the FORD dealer today as well as LORDCO and UAP NAPA looking
for the following parts for my 96 ASPIRE (auto):
the front axle wheel hub retainer nut
driveshaft bearing retainer circlip 3z498

This fuse blew while driving down the freeway.
Replacing only blows another one.
Anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks

For the Passat; perfect followup for the ricer-basher...
And along the lines of the double-meaning, "Drivers Wanted"  which always
made me chuckle..
"Lowest Ego Emissions" {of any German car.}

My friends 96' Taurus' automatic transmission bit the dust at 105K
miles. The estimate is about $2K to repair it. I realize the mileage is
high but is it possible to get Ford to pick up any of the tab,
considering the failure history of this tranmission?

I am in the UK, I had the refridgerant replaced 2 years ago and been ok
since. I again had it replaced last week, it was ok driving away, today the
compressor clutch is not coming on at all. What is the likely cause? Seals?

can anyone instruct on how to enter key code.
I have the radio and the code but do not know how to enter the code
or send a link (that works) to online manual or something.
all I have on the screen is CODE----

Have a 99 V6 / automatic Contour with 85000 miles on and plan on

Any ideas?

Last week I posted that my 96 Ford Aspire's right side halfshaft
differential seal was leaking tranny oil. I replaced it with success
and was driving for two days with no problem.
WELL, this even, when I was attempting to park my car, I stopped, then
