Hi All,

First, thanks for looking at my plea, I've never done this before, so I'm hoping someone can help me out. I have a 1990 Honda Prelude, and since I bought it in October, I have replaced clutch, alternator, intake (input?) shaft bearing, and a wide variety of other things that have fallen off or broken. I now have developed a small leak to the left front driver side tire, but I don't know what it is. Mechanic says it's not oil, and since it's right under my power steering fluid, I would assume that is where it's coming from, but I've been told it should be red. It's not, it's a light brown. It's getting bigger and bigger the more I drive it, and I'm concerned that I'm going to screw something up if I don't get if fixed soon.

The other thing is the rididulously loud clanking noise that come from my back end when my rear tires go over a bump. It's not the shocks (struts, whatever), and there doesn't look to be anything wrong with the allignment... Since I'm a girl, I am convinced it is something stupid like the hubcap, but I fear (since the noise is SO LOUD) that it is something more severe.

If anyone has any ideas/suggestions... please email me at ksputek@telus.net (or post in forum). I would appreciate any advice!!
