[More a/c - heater problems]

Easiest first step would be to remove the connector from the back of the ECC comtrol head, Use a

liberal dose of Rat Shack tuner cleaner on both sides of the connection, put it all back together and

see what happens. This quick and easy proceedure cured my heat/ac problems.

[And I thought Reatta paperwork was too expensive.]

And this is an owners manual, not a shop manual.

[Rear struts]

I bought a set of rear struts from rockauto.com. What I recieved was a set of struts for a Riviera ( air shocks ) can I just

put them on the car as is or do I have to find a Riv compressor and go through the hassel of getting it together and working?

[2 SEATER AMERICAN CARS]

King Midget from Athens, Ohio was a two seater.

[Climate control head problem]

Life is good, I am once again Master of my ECC. I added a little spray of tuner cleaner between the remove and the replace. It's amazing what a little dirt in the connection can do.

[Fair Warning - Alert]

The 90 service manual on eBay is the New Product Information, it is not the complete Final Edition. Someone has a $90+ bid on it and I am sure they will not be happy with what they get, for not much more they could get the Final Edition from Helm.

[I'm in!]

Here we go, same problem, hope I don't break up too much plastic getting the dash bezel off. I'll post results soon.

[Can a Reatta pull a boat?]

That's just the way large boats are transported, you won't see dual axels at the front of many trailers. This is Super Reatta. To get it home and into the pond for bluegill fishing.<BR>Come on now, it took me several hours and a few more beers to get the driver to drop the trailer and pull the tractor out of frame.<p>[ 07-22-2002: Message edited by: FlyByNite ]

[Assistance in shipping Reatta from Calif]

I vote for the fly out drive back method. What a roadtrip and when you get home, you know your car. I drove mine home from Mass. worked well for me. Might be going to KC to get another one. Hell, I'm retired now, for not much more than airfare and gas I'll go get it for you.<p>[ 06-06-2002: Message edited by: FlyByNite ]

[Headroom]

Yes. most of Holland is below sea level, but after a coffeeshop or two how high you are has nothing to do with altitude.

[90 Reatta Conv.]

A good starting place is <A HREF="http://www.reatta.net/brakes/brakes_troubleshooting.html" TARGET=_blank>HERE</A> it is a simple brake test, better a car that won't go than one that won't stop.

[New Member from Raleigh,NC]

For the safety of you and your passenger go <A HREF="http://www.reatta.net/brakes/brakes_troubleshooting.html" TARGET=_blank>HERE</A> and run the brake test. Happy motoring<p>[ 05-15-2002: Message edited by: FlyByNite ]
