Random thoughts on ease of Maintainance - 3.1 by Vic Smith
Last weekend my kid put a new intake manifold gasket on my '97 Lumina. I was his helper. This was about a solid 6 hour job. Count parts cleaning, putting a new o-ring on the distributor/oil pump shaft, a beer and a nap, running to the parts store, etc., it's more like 10-12 hours. What makes...

Question on Hondas by danl
Hi, I'm looking for a 1998 to 2001 Honda civic sedan 5spd 4 cyl. Anything in particular I should watch out for. I figure the mileage will run from about 90,000 to 150,000. I have been told if it has not been done the timing belt would be a good thing to replace right off. Anything else besides...

Once it's overheated, the engine stops. You would have to wait a few minutes before you can start it up again. What could be...

Hello, Have a V6 2005 Accord with 110K on it. So, I guess will need a new Timing Belt and Plugs. Is this something that should really be done at a Dealership, or can most any "competent" garage handle it ? Must the Plugs be those Pt tipped very expensive ones ?

Strange noise from Scion tC by Hachiroku $B%O%A%m%/(B[_2_]
2005 Scion tC with Camry 2.4L 4 cylinder VVTi. First-third gears, no sounds, no problems. When I hit 4th gear and press the gas, there is a noise from the front of the car that is best described as putting a playing card in the spokes of you bicycle. I heard it when I was 'sort of' lugging the...

Turning the supercharger on or off by phaeton
As I grew up, there were various movies where the driver of the souped- up car had a blower that he could 'turn on' when he needs a little extra 'push'. I think the first one I saw was Mad Max (1979) but then all through the 1980s there were other examples, I think my favorite being "My Science...

Corolla 2006 bumpy ride (continued) by Dan[_6_]

Marvel Mystery Oil: Can it clean injectors? by adamh
I don't know about MMO as a fuel injector cleaner, It probably does help a little bit, though slowly. A great product I've found to work great, for those injectors "on their last legs" is the Berryman's B-12 CHEMTOOL. It's a concoction of aceton, Xylene, Lacquer Thinner, Isopropanol, and some...
