Hi Teeners! It's been a while, finally figured out an electrical problem that was preventing the fuel pump from running. A new ignition switch did the job.
Last Fall my drivers window stopped working. That turned out to be because the two screws at the bottom of the rear track has vibrated loose and disappeared. The glass had popped out of the lift track, I can't recall if the glass left to rubber, or the rubber left the track. However, at the time I cleaned off some sticky stuff and put it back together with a new rubber from Stoddard. They couldn't say whether I should glue it or not.
Yesterday the glass came out of the rubber, and the rubber was loose in the door when I got into it.
I don't see any issues with loose parts, and the window had been functioning fine with little or no resistance.
Question is: Should I use an adhesive between the track and the rubber, the rubber and the glass, or both?
And if so what would be a good solution to use. I'm familiar with the adhesive to glue fixed panes in, but I think that may be too permanent of a solution. As always, and suggestions are appreciated.
Rob
