Electrical Tech / Wipers not parking
Ill give it a shot, I just wasn't sure if the parking mechanism was on a separate relay like it is on some cars.

Electrical Tech / Wipers not parking
My wipers work properly when turned on. Turning them off is the problem. Intermittently they will refuse to park and a really annoying buzz comes from under the dash. Is there a relay or something for the parking mechanism?

Suspension/Steering / Spindle nut torque
Whats the proper torque for the front spindle nut on an 84 TBird. And by proper I mean a specific number, not something vague like "tighten it till it stops and back it off"

Thanks

Misc Tech / 84 Tbird temp gauge
The current tires are slightly larger than factory specs so none of this makes any sense. Are these cable driven speedos?

Misc Tech / 84 Tbird temp gauge
How do I know what the red engine light is indicating? The previous owner scanned it and it said bad EGR, so he replaced it and the light is still on

The tires that are on there are slightly bigger than factory specs, which would cause the speedo to read slower. Ill try a different gear or speedo sender. For now i'll just keep using my GPS.

Misc Tech / 84 Tbird temp gauge
I found a website that has several different speedometer gears ranging from 16-24 teeth. Does anybody know how many teeth the original has and what type of transmission is in the 84? Thanks, sorry for all the questions.

Where could I find the correct speedo? Rockauto? The tires appear to be factory size but i will have to research to confirm

What I mean by external trip meter is my GPS. I recorded a trip over the span of a week and the odometer reeds more miles than it should. The speedo is fast too. 55 MPH reads as 67 on the dash. Is there a way to calibrate that? I don't know much about these. I only got it because it was cheap. It's a 5.0. as far as the temp gauge goes, I suppose I could get an aftermarket gauge

I have an 84 TBird. There is a temperature sensor on the engine but I don't see a temp gauge anywhere on the gauge cluster. Also, my speedometer/odometer reads too fast. I have 70 actual miles on my external trip meter and the one on the dash shows 114.
