Does your top seem slower or making a lot of noise?

If you have a leaking hydraulic piston or hydraulic line in the convertible top area, you will be getting 10w (light) machine oil into the cabin under the back seat. A quick look under the back seat (just remove the bottom section) will confirm.
This is a common problem on older convertibles. Do a board search for 'convertible ram' or 'convertible top' and you will get the information that you need to see if that's your problem. Get the Bentley manual if you don't already have it -- Pat Price's notes on the Townsend website are great, too.
