• Thanks for the email. The reservoir is located in the engine compartment
  behind the left front or drivers head light assembly. It has a small black
  cap which has a dip stick built on to it. Sounds to me like your hydraulic
  compensators or air cells in the rear end have failed. They are about the
  size of coconuts and fail allot. There is one for each rear shock. Once
  these have been changed you can adjust the height of the car by the linkage
  rod connected to the anti-sway bar in the rear. No way to fix the speedo.
  The 140 instrument clusters are a fortune new. JON
