Thursday I'm going to look at a black on grey '95 5-spd. 115K on the clock. The bearings on the tranny were replaced 6K ago, along with the clutch. Needs some exhaust work (mid-west car).

The question is, what else do I look at that is a problem for these years?

I will be driving it mostly for a runner, and in the winter when I park my '92SE. I hate taking my baby to the city (Chicago) for stuff, and this car would do the trick.

TIA!

 

take to a trust worthy mechanic and let him inspect it

 

ok, so anyone with some tangible info?

 

that is pretty tangeable, look for sluggishness in the < 3k rpm range for a bad ks, check for any cuts n welds, be warry of the trans making strange whinning noises bc the bearings could be failing again, check to see if the oil level is solid, not that thats accurate cuz if its burning oil the drive could have just added some for it ta appear full.... thats all i can think of
