    All I know about the car is back in 1994-2001 they littered the car auctions I was going to, the highest price I'd ever seen one go for was 300 dollars. mostly went for the starting bid of 65 dollars. I got stupid one morning and bought two of them for 100 bucks each. an 88 and a 90 good thing they had Honda drivelines or I would have lost my ass.

    You have a 100 buck Ass

    I did not think it was bashing, I like the cars. I just wonder why it did not work? It should have. In other words, why is the Honda drivetrain reliable in the Honda, but not the Sterling?

    It is odd... but I only remember seeing one when they were new...

    And from what I remember of it, that car was not in that great of condition.

    What was the pricing compared to an Accord? I wonder if the wrong people bought them and just ran them into the ground?

    Classy guys......classy. Way to welcome him.

    Remember this is GRM where everything from festivas and wartburgs to biturbos and cavaliers are embraced.

    Yes, ditch, you are quite correct, we do embrace all automotive persuasions here. Welcome to the board, Mr. Sterling owner; we hope you enjoy our particular form of lunacy. We will certainly keep you entertained.

    And I apologize profusely for speaking the truth.

    Well, he has the hose... Thank you so much for the info. I temporarily repaired it with out the sensor. It seems to be doing well for now. At least until The new one comes in

    Thanks again

    Thank you all whom have tried to help. I finally found one... Yay! I was about to just have someone build me one out of a combination of aluminum (or some kind of metal) and hose. May still do it any way. Thanks again .

    The GRM Enablers Non-Anonymous support group likes to refer to this maniacal lunacy not as a sickness, but as simple "enthusiasm." That's the ticket!
