Check to see if the ABS unit is leaking....I hate mine!!
Other than that, there is a faq about this, it'll give you much more detail than I could. Here is a link: http://www.fc3spro.com/TECH/h2b.html

Good luck.

no abs.

how much does he want for it? sounds like a good car... the deal breaker could be the price.
