So I looked into it and I'm certain my hillholder is crapping out. The cable is adjusted very loose yet it continues to stick. Any ideas how to defeat the system altogether? I know how to drive a MT and don't think I need hill-holding.

Interesting for sure. I've noticed that it stick particularly badly when I stop on an uphill slope. Does that sound crazy or not?

Can I please get some help locating the ABS fuse. I'm a total idiot and can't find it anywhere.

Thanks for the reply. Could you be more specific about which year and/or motor might use the elusive 2-bolt gasket? I need to find one before I have to get my car smogged.

So the squeal was from the accessory belt, The bolt on the alternator stripped out and I was getting no tension. Fixed that. Back to the heads: I'm thinking that the heads on my car are not original. Firstly, the valves bent when the belt broke. Also, there are three bolt holes on the exhaust manifold and only 2 holes in the heads. The wrong manifold gasket has led to a leak, which is probably causing my o2 sensor code. Any ideas on an easy fix? I'm about to go all Thelma & Louise with this car.

It is a refurbished caliper purchased from Kragen. Like new. It came with new pins/bolts and i used the grease provided. I'll look into it, especially considering the ABS advice also found in this thread. Thanks guys. Keep the sound advice coming =)

This is turning into a long project =( New thread started =)

My passenger rear brake is locking up sometimes when I come to a stop. Makes it very difficult to get going again. I can usually get it to release by pumping the brakes. I've bled the brakes clean a couple times and replaced the caliper, to no avail. My car has ABS and only 1 channel is locking. So I'm wondering if there is a sticky valve or some such thing in the ABS. If any of you have any ideas, I'm all ears. Thanks in advance.

So my rear brake is still locking up sometimes. Any ideas how to fix that? I've bled the hell out of it. Maybe a bad valve in the ABS. I'm at my wits end and money is very tight. Thanks in advance, Jeff

Shouldn't be a problem. I think the only parts he used from the '94 EJ22 were the valves. He's gonna look at the codes on Weds. Gratis.

p0441. wrote them down before clearing them, and they came back.

Congrats! The technical stuff, I don't know. To me, cars are like wine. I don't know how to make it, but I know what I like.

July. Model year 96. Just a few months ago you were able to purchase a 2010 model year car, even though it was manufactured in 2009. New cars are typically released late summer the year before model year. Same was true in 1995 and 1996.

It ran OK before. I hadn't put a lot of maintenance into it the last 2 years due to finances and school. Mostly just oil changes and new brakes. It burned a little oil and you could hear the lifters ticking almost all the time. And I've put 40k mile on it in less than 2 years. Mostly ride at Snow Summit and Bear Mtn. Once a year I go to Utah for pow sessions at Snowbasin and Powder Mtn. Also a big fan of Brighton.

I also picked up a cup holder, A/C controls, and E-brake handle from a 96 legacy wagon A/T at ecology auto wrecking. Finally have fully functioning climate control and firm cupholders. The e-brake handle, however, does not latch very easily. I think the spring that pushes the release button out, as well as ratchet to the teeth, is gunked up. It works after some jiggling. I couldn't figure out how to crack it open to clean it. Still, better than the old one with the broken button.
