Changed the oil today, did a complete inspection under the car. As I suspected, 2 oil lines,,,steel at the oil filter area, turning into rubber, then back to steel as it enters the radiator. Oil is seeping out at the transistion where rubber meets steel.
I have called all local autopart stores in ...

Re: Transmission Questions
Can I have first dibs on your headliner!
Re: Oil lines
The oil spots left on my driveway are about 2" diameter and at a rate of every morning. These spots are located just off center, towards the driver side alittle, under the radiator. I have tried looking for this tiny leak from looking above. I assumed those steel fittings at the oil filter area ...
Re: Oil lines
I replaced those transmission lines last month, partly because the tow truck driver towed the car back to my house, ripping off the trans lines while backing the car in the driveway. Partly my fault, it was a huge snow bank at the skirt of the driveway and I should of shoveled it before that guy ...
Oil lines
Have been using Q horspower synth oil for awhile now, decided to change to Mobile 1 synthetic last oil change. Lower oil pressure, and now I have small oil spots on my driveway.
I think the leak is coming from the oil lines from the oil filter to the radiator. Where can I get these at?

Compatibility of interiors
I don't expect much of a answer on this one, but thought I would ask anyways. Anyone out there know if this seat combination from a 2000 ssei will fit into a 94 ssei? My driver seat has seen better days, and for this price of this package, you can't beat it!

Re: steering wheel bearing
I'm located in South Bend Indiana, home of Notre Dame football! I'm alittle ashamed to be called a fan after the past seasons we have had!
I was hoping that the bearing wasn't pressed in, was thinking that the spring alone kept that bearing in place. I didn't really fool with it all that much to ...

Re: steering wheel bearing
Yah, I was inside the column last weekend to replace the cylinder switch and ignition switch. The process of putting the columing back together, the inner race of that bearing came apart, and I couldn't get the bearing to go back together. I will press that bearing out and go on the hunt. Thanks for ...

steering wheel bearing
Any one know where I can buy a bearing that goes inside the steering wheel column. The steering wheel has a ton of play in every direction, and is starting to scare me when I push against the wheel to help get my momentum to get out of the car. The bearing sits right behind the turn signal canceling ...

Re: Running in circles. Warm power loss. Dies sometimes.
Wow, what a book you have written. Have you checked the grounds? Joking! I had a similar problem not that long ago with my car. It would idle great, but when it warmed up, all went to hell fast. Absolutely no power, had the car WOT, and barely had enough power to creep the car back into my heated ...

Re: Engine self reving, sounds like a siren
My brother was trying to convince me of replacing that bushing and rebuilding the SC ourselves. Just to much screwing around, and it's way easier to just buy one that has already been rebuilt.

Engine self reving, sounds like a siren
The engine mechanically runs fine. It doesn't miss and no excessive vibration. When the throttle is opened quickly from idle to any rpm above 3000, something overrides the throttle input and the engine changes speed from anything above 3000 rpm to about 1500. It changes rpm about 2 times a second ...

I have a 94 ssei, from what I hear it's a hybrid car with different styles of computers. I ordered from Moates the cable needed for this car. Moates also included a CD containing Tuner Pro RT. I also downloaded EFI v4. Currently neither program is working for me, maybe due to usb driver issues.

Re: Oil Pressure= 0PSI
I re-installed per the way you guys said, and now the car has beautiful 40 psi of oil. Thanks all,,
During the first 10 mins of idle, I heard some clunking noise from the SC, which is a new noise. I went to rev up the engine, and noticed the boost gauge not able to achieve anything higher than 0psi ...

Hello all,
I had to tear into my 94 SC bonneville's engine due to a failed broken hub on a harmonic balancer which in turned ruined the crankshaft key. I had the timing chain cover off to obtain full access to the crankshaft key. I replaced the timing chain and gears for the hell of it. After ...
