[Codes 12 and 34 on my Loyale]

I just checked mine on my '90 Loyale and found to have # 11, 13, 14, 34, and 35! Heck, it has 205k on it so I'm gonna drive it until it dies!

[Annoying rear wheel noise...]

Possibly the brake pad separated from the caliper. This happened on my '01 OB. It did not chirp or squeek until I drove about 3-5 miles and went away when applying the brakes.

 

I took it back to the dealer who could not hear it on a short drive. I told him to get on the freeway and drive it for a while. Sure enough, he heard it ( and fixed it) under warranty.

[Seafoam proves itself]

Just used a can in my 2000 Dodge Caravan with a VERY noisy engine (lifter and injector) today. 1/2 of a can in the oil and the other half in a nearly empty tank of gas. Did 10 miles at 80mph on the freeway with some WOT at times.

 

Let's just say that it purrs like a kitten now.

 

My 1990 Loyale (200k+) was treated last year, but one of the HLA's is still calling out for some more Seafoam. Good stuff.

[Strange whining noise while driving]

Every time I hear that comment at work, I tell the suveyor's helpers to get out of the truck and quit bellyaching!

[Squeaky Engine at Idle]

Very good chance it is the idler pulley bearing. When the water pump is starting to go, it sometimes sounds like it is full of rocks or marbles.

[Spokane wrecking yards?]

On I-90, take the Argonne Exit and head north. Then turn east on Montgomery and go about 1/3 mile. There will be signs at the intersection. Been there a couple of times to get parts for the Loyale.

 

If I remember any more yards, I will let you know.

[91 Loyale Check engine]

Disconnected both the white and green, now getting a 34 code (EGR solenoid or circuit). I thought these wires had to be connected to get the codes?

[91 Loyale Check engine]

Thanks Cougar, My Check Engine light has been on for a while. Just read another thread, so the white and green connectors should be diconnected?

[91 Loyale Check engine]

My 1990 Loyale is getting 5 quick flashes for a code. Any ideas?
