Too much camber, 89 Ford Escort GT. When I drive forward the camber increases, backwards the camber decreases. This happened after I replaced controls arms, front bearings and general cleaning and painting of suspension parts. Could this be a problem with the stabilizer bar, and is it possible to install stabilizer bar upside down?,,,

Sounds like an alignment problem. You need sensitive laser equipment to figure out exactly what is wrong. Normally, you cannot install these type of parts upside down or other items may not fit right.

Testimonial: "Thanks, I figured I would need the alignment."

I need to now how to set front caster camber on 2.3i 1996 VW Combi

Castor and camber are two separate adjustments.
Castor is how far the suspension strut leans forward or backwards and adjustment is very limited.
Camber is the tilt of the wheels top to bottom measured across the car. How far apart are the wheels at the top compared to the distance at the bottom. Adjustment depends on the suspension fitted. Like castor, camber adjustment can be limited. So work out which one it is you to adjust.

'89 Tbird Clock

I believe that if you HOLD DOWN the "clock" button and press "seek" for minutes and "tune" for hours you should be able to reset your clock. Remember that if you press the + "seek" you will increase the minutes and if you press the - "seek" you will decrease the minutes. The same for "tune". The left will decrease and the right will increase hours. If this doesn't work, there is something wrong with the contacts behind these buttons, or some other problem.
Good luck.
