  1. There are two flasher "cans located up high behind the dash to the right of the steering wheel. To do a simple test turn on your emergency flashers to se if both turn signals flash the same. If they do then it is likely the directional flasher can. Going from memory the cans are in a bracket high up and can be reached from the bottom of instrument panel. Turn on the directional and reach up to "feel" for the can. having the directional on you will feel the click and know that is the one to remove. best advice is the leads to the can are long, so when you remove the bad can bring the cans down lower for the next time should you need to do it again.

  2. I just spent close to a grand at my local GM dealership to repair a hard to reach brake line rupture that "the small mechanic down the road" decided the repair was beyond his capabilities. Sad thing was that he had my car parked outside for 2weeks with rain and tree leaves making a mess on the paint before he finally came to that realization. I had my car hauled to the dealership and and the repairs were completed promptly. Unfortunately, the labor rate at $125 per hour adds up pretty quick. Brake line and new caliper was about $90 bucks and balance was for labor. Bottom line is that with over 25 years of ownership, I have as much, or more, in repairs as I paid for the car. But, it's over 25 years of enjoyment of owning such a unique vehicle.
