No, it's near the bottom of the pump. I put in some 'guaranteed' leak sealer fluid recommended by the guys at Autozone and the mechanic said that stuff ended up accellerating the leak.

I said I like to do my own wrenching, not that I'm very experienced at it. It's a hassle just to get the garage for part of a day, and out of the question for overnight. I have access to plenty of around-the-house type tools, but the only auto specific things I have are a spark plug socket, wheel ramps, and a tool for popping off window levers. I looked at the description of a brake job and repacking wheel bearings in my Haynes manual and it's not something I could attempt until I have my own garage and secondary transportation.


That's been the question. The dash molding has two spots on either side of the wheel, the left one being a togle for the hazards. The right switch looks identical except it says "locked" and has an amber light on it. The hazard switch is described in the owner's manual, the right one wasn't mentioned at all. I bought it from a used dealer selling on consignment for a friend, who was the son of the original owner. According to him, all it was ever used for was hauling a trailer up north- the body looked pristine except for a few nicks. It didn't sound like they would have added anything aftermarket.

Maybe I'm not clear on the concept. I've been trying to save up for basic repairs and haven't risked playing around with the 4X4 abilities yet. Are you saying the default would be open and the switch locks on the LSD? I know I've squealed the tires powering through turns and in the rain, I thought this would only happen with a LSD.


Thanx. ( is that a spray can? =:-0 )
