handling issue.. car swerves a lot
Hi,
Currently i'm driving a 93' Honda Del Sol BONE STOCK. I'm not trying to race or anything but just driving casually in a straight line or on a turn pike my car tends to swerve to each side of the road very gently. This is making me hate driving my much loved honda, so I've come here to get suggestions on how to fix it..
I believe it may be the tie rod ends.. What do you guys think?
Also when I depress my clutch the front end vibrates which i'm sure is just the clutch or flywheel. Thanks for any feedback.

swerves, or pulls to the side? sound like you just need an alignment. take it to a good respectable shop for that (not a chain store).

it swerves, from one side of the road to the other.. but it's easily corrected and it seems like an uneven road makes it much worse

i recommend taking it in for an alignment. it should correct this problem. if there is anything else, it will surely show up during the alignment.

by any chance did you recently acquire this car? when i bought one of my hatch's it had stock 13" wheels with uber crappy tires.........and it was all over the road, and when i put my 15s with decent tires on it, it drove perfectly fine. so it could be alignment, tires, almost anything really. never hurts to get a car aligned though, so go that route first.

possibly rear wheel bearing, jack up the back tires of the ground and check for play in any direction.. the sudden swerve is likely to have something along those lines as the problem.
