Answer
Hi Jill,
I have the '96 and '99 manuals and they are identical as regards the front calipers, so either should address your '97. I haven't heard of this problem so far, so it may be something you are doing. I can offer to photocopy the pages from the manual and postal mail them to you. Just send me back a follow-up private question giving that address.

PS Sorry for the delay but I just found your question in the 'pool' to which it had been referred by Kevin. Please 'rate' my answer and where you see the question about a nomination of me to be 'volunteer of the month' consider a 'yes' response. Thank you
