So I got the regulator replaced. The problem was not a stripped gear, as I imagined, but part of the metal frame, near the center gear area, broke completely in half. Very weird.
For the record, t ... |

Anyone have these that they want to sell, in good condition? I can't find them anywhere, in brown. I do see a few in black on Ebay.
This is a two-piece part, although the one I need is the larger ... |

My window is stuck down. I can hear the motor running, but the glass doesn't move.
I removed the door card (and in the process butchered the interior latch surround...anyone know where I can get a ... |

Fifty50Plus wins the prize! I knew it wasn't the overboost switch, since that is already disconnected and the wire grounded. The buzzing to which I referred was from the back, the fuel pumps. I jumper ... |

I jumpered the relay (that relay box is NOT positioned for convenient access!) and both pumps appear to be running. In fact, it then started, and I moved it to my driveway.

Quick question about fuel pump behavior in this car: If I put the key in and turn it on (but not all the way to crank it) I hear the fuel pump (or something) hum briefly...maybe a second...and then s ... |

So basically, I was almost home, when I pulled up to a stop sign and the car died, dash warning lights on etc. I thought maybe I somehow just stalled it. Started it back up again, drove a little furth ... |

That's probably what I'll go with. Good to hear it's a relatively painless job. On the 928, it's supposedly a PITA and I'm not looking forward to it, but I kinda have to now....but that's another stor ... |

I figured those KYBs were too good to be true. I hate changing shocks, so I definitely don't want something where I'm going to have to do the job again any time soon...
If price is a concern, there ... |
