Default Help!!!

I am new to the Forum and was wandering....how do I diminish or delete the Google ads that block the right side of the forum messages? I am tired of trying to secon guess what the complete ad reads.
Also, I have a '82 Collectors Edition that I just purchased. The headlights are "stuck" in the up position. I have good vacum from the intake and the manual overide switch under the steering column als has good vacum with the hoses correctly installed. Any guesses what or where to check next prior to purchasing and replacing every component????

Welcome aboard. I also have a CE. Have you tried to make sure that one of the hoses hasn't fallen off of the light switch. You will need to have them in the correct place. I believe Wilcox has a help section on the vacuum routing for the headlights. You probably need to go ahead and buy the service manual for the 82. It is a must!

As far as the ads, I think it is something you have to tolerate.
