+1. I changed everything in my ebreak and it still don't work, if need to idol on a hill i just break out the chalk block, than again the only hill idol on is my own driveway.
I still need mine. I have to warm my car up for a couple minutes before I drive, otherwise my engine stalls out. If I'm parked on a hill, it's rather hard to stand on the brake pedal the whole time while trying to fire the engine up and get the choke working properly.
My girl friend (many years ago) parked her Chebby in my driveway which was a moderate hill and left it in first gear. The neighbor knocked on the door about an hour later to tell her that her car was in his front yard! It popped out of gear, rolled down my driveway, across the street, and into his yard. It was amazing that it didn't hit anything on its journey.
A new wheel and pin is cheap insurance, use the e-brake!
