1. I need to replace my exhaust manifold. I am afraid of ringing off the old bolts. Is this something to be worried about. Is the whole project of replacing hard to do? Would like to hear from experience.

2. Yanked out my AC unit in the car with a crow bar and created a terrific sound system in its place within the console. However, I went to use the defrost the other day and when I turned the fan on, it did not function at any of the settings of 1-2-3-4. Any answers, clues? Do I need to wire something back together to bypass the old AC so that it will work?

3. Have noticed what seems to be a considerable drop in gas mileage. Any quick things to check for? Will this go away once or if the exhaust manifold and O2 sensor can be replaced?


I have to finish these final things to last until next summer. I am going back to school and won't have time or a place to work once I'm out there. I have an '82.
Thanks for all your help in advance.
