    Slight driveline vibration after trans. swap.

    Thats was going to be my next thought if it was just Trans. Grab the front yoke and see if it moves up / down, left / right. Also make sure the rear driveshaft is seated in the rear-end yoke.

    96-97 Window Switch

    The DS1129 is a Standard part. I had to replace mine a few years ago and used the Standard DS1129. Also had to snap the cover off and on the replacement. Are you saying you used the Dorman in the link above?

    First thought for me was coil.

Could also be bad injector(s). PS, if you can find someone with...

    Need Power Steering and Brake Fluid recommendations

    In 1999 the rings were supposedly changed from paper lined to carbon fiber. Because of this I would run Dex III in anything less than 99. Would not risk anything synthetic with Paper.

    Only change I would make is in the Tranny, I run Castrol Transmax DEX/MERC (have a 96 GTS) Trans fluid, meets the Dextron III Standard. I use to run the gear oil but shifting effort Definity increased when cold and the Dex III shifts much better. Check out post...
