Hi, I have a tiny leak in my water pump and was talking to a friend of mine. He said a common remidy of this is to put an egg in with the coolant and as it cooks it'll seep into the holes sealing the leak, at least fairly well. is there any truth to this? any problems either?

I know its bad practice to mix synthetic with conventional oil. However, is it ok to interchange different brands of synthetic? For example, one oil change I may want to use Mobil-1, the next Penzoil platinum. Especially when I am on the road often and may be able to find only one, not another at...

I took half a day vacation the other day to spend some money on my car. I bought 4 new tires and had them mounted, etc. Then I went to pepboys to get an oil change. They had so much of a problem getting the oil plug out; they stripped the inside of the oil pan. For the next hour, they left me...

The instructions say I need a key, and to turn it to the Run position. I can't do that, of course. So what should I do? Just...

I am about post an ad to sell my old car to a private party. My biggest worry is a scam with a cashiers or personal check. I am certain that most people won't agree to cash ($5000-$6000). What can I do to ensure that I get a legitimate payment for my vehicle.

I'm getting the clutch replaced Monday, but have a question. If I turn off the engine while the car is still moving and in gear(clutch fully depressed). There is a noticeable drag as soon as the engine quits. Cherokees have a hydraulic clutch, but it's not a "power" clutch like power brakes, or...
