go to the website for this newsgroup at
http://www.repairfaq.org/
there with some searching you will find a wealth of information.
If, after reading the repairfaq, you are still not certain how to
proceed then you should TAKE it to a service shop, for at the very
least, a repair cost estimate so you can make an intelligent repair
decision.
