Default AC power not at spec.

I spent Saturday going through the breaker box, beautiful day to turn
off the heat and found a loose and badly burned buss bolt. I replaced
the bolt, cleaned the connection and replaced one breaker. The breaker
was working but were hot to the touch. We now have a good steady 120
VAC on both legs from the power company. Thanks to everyone for their
help.

I am having trouble with one 110 VAC power to the house. The line
keeps vering between 115 VAC to under 90 VAC. The house is wired from
the power Co. with two hots (110 VAC) and a netural. I am having
trouble with one phase (110 VAC) and the other phase (110 VAC) does
not fluxuate. What could it be? I have had an electrican and he is
stumped, and the power Co. is no help.
