Rear wheel bearings, jack up 1 side in the back and wiggle the wheel, it will move, all festivas need new rear wheel bearings when you get them, hah.
Dont forget to get the new spindle nuts when you get the bearings, they are ushally beat and are really intended for 1 time use.
remember! the right side spindle nut is reverse thread!
For a lil more power from the lil B3, 2 things I do too all my festivas, this makes a huge difference!
#1 take out airbox, get a whiz wheel and cut out the triangle around the lil snorkle thing. this opens things up a bit.
#2 jack up the timing as far as you can go without pinging. how far depends on if you want to run mid grade or super fuel.
(I run my b6 festiva on mid grade, this lets me run more timing advance and also for some reason i get better mileage to.)
just advancing the timing and airbox cut makes it like a completley different car.
if you open your hood, is there a big dirty grease spot under the hood on the left side? Dont worry about all festivas have that. hah
