    Cruise Control Vacuum Pump, what I learned

    Fairly eee zee to put back in. I lubed up the rubbers with some grease and used a pair of needle nose to pull them on through. Also used a flashlight so I could see. If I can do anyone with at least three digits on each hand should be able to get it.

    98' Disco Engine Mis-Fire

    I am guessing that a MAF is a mass air flow sensor. How would I go about checking these things? And can you give me an idea of where the MAF is and Where the ECU is and I think I can check for loose pins, etc. Thanks for your input. I take it you don't recommend replacing the TPS or IAC.

    Cruise Control and Horn

    I had a similar problem with my D1. I tried replacing hoses and nothing helped. turns out the clock spring was bad in the steering column. I bought one on e-bay for 80.00 and paid a local mechanic 100.00 to replace and have had cruise and horn ever since.

    Drivers window only moves 2"?

    does this only happen in the cold weather? I have had a similar problem since winter. I lubed the guides on the door and it has stopped since. I believe what was happening with mine was the window was sticking in the guides. trying to jam it while it sticks may compound the problem

    Clockspring?

    I have been working on my cruise/horn problems for months and I am ready to go for the clockspring's throat. Is this something you can do-it-yourself or does this require a pro? I have heard horror stories about steering columns getting screwed up and costing big bucks to repair...
