First off this is the best board I have seen for getting real help (glad I found it).
I recently purchased an '86 4x4 short box P/U with 187,000miles on a 22R, 5spd. I have a few questions.
1) There is a whining sound that is noticeable at idle (whether clutch is engaged or not) and increases in pitch when in gear and accellerating.2) Doesn't have power steering but should it require the full force of two arms to turn. If not any suggestions?
3) Temp gauge barely moves from cold and then normally about a quarter of the way up when at a stop, goes back down soon as I start moving.and finally ...
4) If the tires are out of round would it cause the steering wheel to practically shake out of your hands when you get to about 45mph, if so what would happen if I swapped them to the rear axle (assuming that the rear tires are not out of round also).Thanks all! Rick
