stereo system by mikenoble

My cassette/cd/amfm stereo lights up and cd runs but no sound most of the time...I assume a short. Sometimes the sound comes on when I hit a bump in the right way and sometimes when I am just sitting there.Does anyone know where the main ground is or what I might do to fix this problem.

1996 J30- 61k miles- Tranny LEAK! by saringv

Greetings all;
Bought the wife a 96 J30 (local dealership- 30 day/3k mile warranty) with 61k miles, documented service records since new, 1 owner. Carfax is clean...beautiful car, rides handles well. Early bday present!
 
Took it for a ride tonight (1 day after we bought it) and coming up a grade, noticed smoke, tons of it. Pulled over, tranny fluid. Tow driver got it up and without a flashlight, couldn't tell where the leak was. My suspicion is the rear output seal, but it was dark...there's a gasket between the tranny and the tailshaft-possible leak there? Anyone had a similar experience or can point out what the cause might be?

Could be as simple as a busted transmission cooler line. After 13 years, things like this can deteriorate and are rarely replaced as maintenance items.

Removing heads from j30 by beyondinfiniti

I have a '96 j30 and am removing the heads ( which are REALLY cruddy) and in order to do so, must first remove intake manifold. My service manual states to remove the idler, which is held in place with a stud. I removed the nut and washer and the idler came off properly with the stud left in place. The manual I have seems to show the idler held in place with a bolt rather than a stud. Anyone have any experience with removing this stud?

You can usually remove a stud using a "double nut"...you run two nuts on the stud, then tighten them against each other with two box wrenches, and then crank the stud out, putting the wrench only on the inner nut of the two. You may want to lubricate the stud area beforehand with some type of cutting oil.

Normal operating temp by ryat616

I own a 1995 j30 with 74,000 miles. When I start the car, it runs fine, great pick-up. Barely push down the gas pedal, and 0 - 60 like its nothing. As soon as I drive for about 5 minutes and the car gets to normal temperature it feels like the car loses its umph. I have to put the gas pedal down farther for it to pick up speed, and it starts out slow, catches and then sends the rpms up really fast. If I am trying to go up a hill and need to pick up speed, I have to push the gas pedal all the way down to the floor. I just replaced all spark plugs, and all ignition coils, and it did help the problem a little bit. Someone suggested it could be my cats which I checked temperature and was running in the 420 range. I was told that was normal. Any ideas anybody? I just want my car to drive like when I first turn it on all the time!
