Yesterday I finally actually put in the new brake
master cylinder. It had been sitting on my shelf for
almost a year, and when advertising the car I said it
was new, so I figured I'd better do that.
Now, it doesn't try to roll back while sitting at a
stop sign! Imagine that! And, the brake fluid is
clear once again!
Also, for the longest time, the engine had been making
a kind of rattling noise. I had always sort of
assumed that it was just part of having the diesel
engine. Well, I found that the bracket for the power
steering pump was missing a bolt.
The bracket kind of swings under the timing belt cover
and has a bolt at the back of the engine. That bolt
was gone, so the whole bracket would rattle whenever
the engine was running.
Now, the thing is sooo much quieter, I can't get over
it!
I'm starting to have cold feet about selling the car
too, what with gas prices shooting up more and more!
