91 Colt 200...door problem this time by
Son of Sam
I've been having problems with my drivers side door (car is a 2-door)
for the last couple months. The door kept lowering and lowering on the
frame and it got harder and harder to close. Just lately, after a
friend drove my car, the door dropped a lot because I had forgotten to
tell him about the...

No Heat, Loosing Coolant by
Matthew
Let me start off by saying I don't know a whole lot about cars and even
less about how to fix them although I can change my oil and have
replaced a caliper and brakes. Okay Here is my story (it's Long): I
have a 94 ford Taurus v 6 3 litter with about 80,000 miles on her. I
haven't had much trouble...

Vacuum brake bleeding by
Peter
For some reason I couldn't post a followup to my first message.
Anyways, thanks for all the replies.
At first, I wanted to gravity bleed, but the fluid wasn't coming out
much.
I got it done finally, with help from my less-than-enthusiastic wife
at the pedal. The fluid at mc is light gold colour,...

OTC 4000E Scanner Questions by
Troy Boy
I've had an OTC 2000 for a few years for my old cars. Recently got rid of my
pre-90 cars and now have a '90 & '93 Toyota and a '96 Jeep Grand Cherokee. So I
decided to upgrade to a newer model scanner. I thought the 4000E and the 4000
Enhanced were the same, so I started biding on ebay for a...

Hi everyone. I have a 91 Dodge Colt, 200 series, and I am unable to

89 Taurus V6 Problem by
F. Dail Singleton, Jr.
Our Taurus has recently (on some days, not always) shown "surging"
(oscillating idle speed) while in the middle of the warmup period but
runs normally once hot and starts normally from cold also.
Coincidentally(???), 3 times it has suddenly stalled while driving
slowly during the warmup period. In...

Mazda 626 97 Acts like it's missing. by
Dave R.
My 97 626 seems like it has a missfiring problem. But the plugs are
almost new. It used to be that it would shake a little at startup and
go away in a few seconds. Lately I have been smelling coolant. Today I
started it up and it did the old shaking thing but did not go away.
Pulled all plugs,...

Am I crazy? by
[email protected]
My criticism of automobiles is that the hoods are too big. The big
hoods cut down on visibility (to say nothing about maneuvering in
traffic and parking in tight spots). It is difficult to see cars on the
driver's right side. City buses and the old fashioned milk trucks did
not appear to have...

Rusty exhaust bolts by
Rojo2G
I'm changing the head on a 79 GMC truck. The exhaust bolts are very
deteriorated. They are a grade something. Can I buy the matching grade or a
higher grade to replace them. Are all, say, Grade 5 or 8 bolts the same and
usuable for the exhaust? I will be rebuilding this engine later this year...
