Either I've been mighty fortunate not to have gone through the stuff others have, or I've put miles on faster than stuff can wear out. :p
It's time for a tune up- all the regular stuff:
Timing belt, pulleys
PCV system- as there are broken hoses
Change radiator fluid
Spark plugs
Bevel gear oil/diff oil
Check brakes/replace as needed/change fluid
And all the other filters and fluids, etc.
The only things I think I'm going to have to change not as of regular maintainable items is, I think I have a coil going bad- which will be the first one I've replaced since I've owned the car, and the plastic catch that holds the regulator to the passenger side window (I accidentally hit the window switch during our ice storm and broke it).
The one thing I noticed while I had to make a trip to Raleigh last week was, the power steering fluid reservoir had a split in it- I noticed it when I was checking the oil at a gas station. This will be the third one!!! [cussing] Who makes a metal one!?!?! [sly] Am I going to have to come up with it? It has got to cross reference with something else...possibly? Reposition and use a round metal one?
