I've found the largest variable in fuel mileage is the driver. I can drive my LeBaron for a week, stop and go driving, and some Interstate driving, and I'll...
I agree, it is not a good indication of what you will get but it is a good way to compare cars to each other. The same driver could expect the same mileage if...
Greetings! I've just recently joined the group and this is my first post. I have a 1982 convertible which still has a couple of problems. The big one right...
David; Dieseling is usually a result of carbon deposits in the combustion chambers. The carbon deposits retain a good bit of heat, and ignite the air/fuel...
Daniel, Thanks for the reply! I didn't do the tuneup myself (as I didn't have access to all of my tools at the time) and don't remember everthing they did,...
Daniel seems to have the dieseling down, and with the windows, that sounds like the plastic gear/tracks are shot. They get brittle with age and crack. They...
At one point, the tracks were available from NAPA. Hold onto your wallet, though. I paid nearly $50.00 for one in a Grand Am several years ago. Daniel Ryan...
David; Pretty much would require at a minimum a head job to remove the carbon. Hardly worth the trouble, as the carbon will return fairly soon after. I have...
This spring I was planning on getting a Maaco paint job on my '94 Lebaron Convertible but the Maaco in my area went out of business I just found out. I figured...
It might be worth looking for a MAACO even if it is 50 miles away since they are about $400 for a decent painr job. I had a MAACO paint job put on my daughters...
Im from Mineola BUT I remember that there was a Great Maaco place out in Farmingdale- I think they are the ones that went out of business. You may try the...
I have a 95 GTC Conv. One of the latches that secures the boot on to the body has a piece of plastic screwed on to it. Unfortuneately the plastic piece broke...
No clue, mine are all metal. ... From: thechryslerlebaronclub@yahoogroups.com [mailto:thechryslerlebaronclub@yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Bill Valencia Sent:...
OK, so I am pretty cheap....but I may have found a car with a bad tranny which has a new top on it...for a good price. Has anybody tried to swap tops from...
What i would do is find a good set from a junkyard and use that, but thats just me. Justin ... wallet, though. I paid nearly $50.00 for one in a Grand Am...
Glue it back on, if u can do it without putting on too much lue it won't even be noticeable. Justin ... to the body has a piece of plastic screwed on to it....
Thats right, but on the bottom surface which you can't see, is a plastic piece that holds the metal sliding latch in place. AMoparGirl <amopargirl@...>...
Can't believe that no one here is interested so I'm reposting this message, look at the pics and at least tell me what you think? I have lowered the price to...
Justin; In most cases I'd agree with you, but those parts in the boneyard are just as old as his, and are brittle. Window regulators aren't a job I'd care to...
Thats what i done last weekend was swap the whole top,frame and cylinders from a wrecked one i bought a couple years ago.Mines a 90 and the wrecked one was a...
... General Motors Top Engine Cleaner. Part # 1050002. Look that up on the web and you'll find people with many different makes of cars and trucks using it. It...
Daniel, Approx. how much would it cost to rebuild a 2.6L Mitsu engine? Tony ... carbon. Hardly worth the trouble, as the carbon will return fairly soon after....
now, i'm just pretty much speaking out my butt as i have no experience with these guys....but from what i've heard, they are NOT a good place to go to. i knew...
... Nope. Easier than installing a new top on your old frame. Just make sure you make note of how things come apart so you can put them back together. It also...
I have to agree with Jay's comments on MAACO. Several years ago I had a Honda painted at MAACO in Wilmington, NC. It looked nice for about one year then the...
... Removed the latch to see if you can bodge a fix? Shouldn't matter if it's an ugly fix since it's hidden. It just has to work and keep the boot on at speed....
... Gorilla Glue. It's a polyurethane glue that sticks to nearly everything. The only problem with it is how it cures. Put it on one item that's dry, get the...
Tony; Are you talking rebuilding it yourself, or having the work done? In many cases, it's cheaper to buy a rebuilt engine through a reputable rebuilder. You...
Adrian; It's a nice car, and a fair price. I wish I had the money, I'd buy it in a second. The colors make it a virtual twin to my 1994 GTC...I joked with my...
