    Power Antenna stopped working

    Probably one of the switches inside the antenna itself. If you have verified the signals are proper out of the relay, it's either the wire to the antenna or the antenna itself which is far more likely. A search should pull up the wiring diagram.

    Brake Lights

    Here's the diagram that shows C104 harmonica connector and the wire that comes off the brake switch into the hazard assembly in the column and then back out to power the brake lights independently of the third brake light wire.

    Brake Lights

    You need to get to the right side of the steering column up top, undo the drivers side black lower panel, two screws and a 10mm nut down at the floor. Remove the drivers A/C vent a couple of screws and a hose. Look up and find the white wire on the top of the harmonica steering column...

    Exhaust hangers

    Carquest 8200 has a nice piece of rubber if that's what you need, if you can source one. Hangers are normally used behind the mufflers on dual systems, crossflow type hang on the muffler.

    Air condition pulley diameter/part number

    I did a rough measurement of a 1987 pulley and it was 5" groove to groove. Jaws weren't wide enough on the calipers to get an accurate measurement. Flat cable cut as close as possible to mate the ends on top of the grooves measured with a good rule then used pi.

    Oil filter not filling up

    I would definitely put a gauge on it to see what's going on. Or pull the drivers side valve cover and see if it's getting up there. If it was sitting for a while and lost prime I would think you could easily hear the lifters clacking when running with no oil.... Verification that the idiot...

    Strange sound

    Passenger side bushings gone, cooked by downpipe? Close visual inspection is easy. Loose converter bolt(s), loose converter shield? Belt issues tensioner slap... Exhaust leak....

    Power antenna problem

    There are contacts inside the antenna for up and down that can get dirty and stop operation. As well as external relay contacts and radio switch that can cause issues but that's a more rare failure mode.

    Appears to be an early Extender chip for the Translator +. PM TurboBob aka Bob Bailey the info., he should know exactly what it was designed as since he did the chips and designed the Translator and is always helpful. From my limited experience with the older stuff. B early translator? S...

    Proper plug gap?

    Service manual says .035" that may be a typo in the owners manual, the .060" for the other engines is backed up by the service manual.
