1987 Dodge Dakota 3.9L carbed I recently posted on rec.autos.tech about the problems I was having with an MSD 5900 Blaster ignition and an MSD 8202 Baster 2 coil. It seems I could use one or the other with no problem, either the MSD ignition with the stock coil or the MSD coil with the stock...

Overall, do those yellowed polycarbonate headlight deoxidizing chemicals or 1600-grit polishing solutions actually work well enough to be indistinguishable from new? We bought for a college kid an older Toyota Camry of the early 2002-2006 model vintage where the polycarbonate on the headlights...

I went to a auto-repair shop here in Destin, FL. I have a 1998 Toyota Senna minivan - V6. I had a tune-up done that consisted of new spark plugs ($108 parts), wires ($98 parts) + labor ($249). Also, PCV ($40 part), fuel filter ($12 part) + labor ($91) The total before tax was $644.76. I was...

UPDATE: Today I mounted & static balanced my 30th tire in about five years, where each time I do this easy job, I learn new tricks to make it even easier. For example, the "drop center" trick that Clare taught me was, by far, the most critical trick of all. And, this time, I learned that it's a...

A 68 year old woman ran her car through a brick and steel wall, into a laundromat, and damaged the wall and 5 or 6 washing machines, you know, the big industrial ones... She was sneaking up on a parking space when all of a sudden the car accelerated and crashed through the wall and the washing...

THE best rust penetrant EVER is GONE! I'm talking about GM's Rust Penetrant and Heat Riser Lubricant. I had a nasty rusty job to do and went to the local Chevy dealer to get a can or two, and he said they haven't had it for about 2 years (Just about the time I bought my last can.) He figures that...

Wondering what considerations there would be in storing a used electric fuel pump that likely has a fair number of miles left in it. Suggestions? Thanks.

Two or 3 weeks ago, I drained my transmission pan's T-IV ATF and refilled it with Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF, making the ATF fluid in my Camry a 50/50 mix of Toyota T-IV and Mobil 1 ATF. My goodness, you're not going to believe this. Toyota recommends T-IV fluid *AND* ATF WS fluid for the exact...

I was under our car ('04 Cavalier) recently, and noticed that the brake lines are starting to rust. So far, it looks to be just on the surface, but it will get worse. Is there anything practical to do, to prevent further deterioration? Thanks, George

"Remarkable doesn't begin to describe what's happening to Toyota Motor Corp. Its reputation for delivering safe, reliable, quality-engineered vehicles is in tatters. Governments from Tokyo to Washington, clearly on the muscle, are pressuring the automaker to act openly and quickly. Toyota's...

I have two Subys, an '89 Coupe and a '97 Wagon. The '89 has the 1800 and the '97 has the 2.2 SOHC engine. I was looking for information on replacing the headgaskets (BOTH have BHGs...) and ran across this...

Hi all, Wisconsin is probably going to pass legislation requiring all gas sold to be at least 10% ethanol. I have heard Minnesota has gone to 20%. The oil companies opposed the legislation. Good news for the couple of ethanol plants in the state and corn growers I suppose. I have a 1989 Buick...

Over the years I have seen the Ct State police use just about anything for an unmarked car, the usual Crown Vics, an occasional Chevy Impala of one vintage or another. In the 80's they used Mustang 5.0s and Mazda MX6s for undercover work. Imagine my surprise when on a work trip to Hartford today I...

Over the years, the inevitable subject of worst cars ever comes up, and the Vega is always at or near the top of the list. I've seen it a hundred times. I feel I should put in a good word for the little car. My sister got a new Vega in early 1973 (a stripped-down one at that, about as basic as...
