May need a shim under it.   


thats what we are thinking, and what is on the agenda for tommorow

and of course the rear seal of the motor is leaking.. just my luck i didnt change it while it was out of the car... should have thought about it then.

my brake lines have broke when i was driving as well, it wasnt to bad...  just stayed away from main roads and cars


so after changing all the brake lines except the big long one going from the front to back, and finally starting to bleed them, guess what happened?

you guessed it, the very last non changed brake line went.. so changed the final brake line, and tommorow morning im bleeding the brakes and never ever worrying about them again Smiley

took the fiero for a spin around the block, its not running perfect, but it does drive Cheesy


when i put the car away one headlight worked perfectly and the other only went up

now they both only go up, and you have to put them down manually

could this be the relay?

Assuming that you have the 1st generation headlight system, the most likely culprits are the headlight switch and the isolation relay.
