This pneumatics brad nailer calls for 55-100-psi, the 5G tank supplies 120-psi. The instructions on the side of the tank says, "do not use on pneumatics tools." It didn't say anything about single shot nailers. The laws of physics yet is prove itself. But if anyone see an imminent tank explosion...

Greetings, I am doing my first '89 Tempo/Topaz motor mount replacement. It's the one under the battery/airbox on the drivers side. I have removed the rubber part, but cannot get a good grip on the three 13mm bolts that hold the top metal half to the automatic transmission. My tools are all either...

Short Version: Is there an easy way for a driver to tell if a supercharger is not working properly? How likely is it that a supercharger problem would not be found by the dealer if one of their vehicles were brought back several times with a complaint of "loss of power"? Full Version: We have...

My speedometer/odometer (Electronic Dash) went out and now the transmission shifts hard. I narrowed it down to the vehicle speed sensor, but I can't find it. There is a sensor on the rear differential, but it completely different from the new VSS I have in my hand. I assume it is an ABS sensor. I...

There was a reason I was gone for >2 days. We got hit HARD. Power came back on today at 6PM, 43 hours. Now, for the GOOD news! I was out for a ride in the Supra, since it was HOT and cruising around with the top off seemed like a good idea. I didn't watch the evening news, and was listening to...

Hi. I remember seeing an ad about a year ago for an inexpensive fiber optic type gadget that allowed you to take pictures of inaccessible places. For example, they showed a picture of one being lowered through a spark plug hole to take digital pictures of the inside of an engine cylinder. I don't...

Hi All: Just wondering if anyone here has a Ford Escape and gets crappy fuel economy. I recently posted here about this. Any statistics anyone has is greatly appreciated. I have an 05 Escape Limited and my wife does mostly city driving. Fuel economy is very poor. 147. - 15.0 mpg. The dealer wants...

I've got a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4.7L 8 CYL SOHC MPI 4 DR. WAGON/SPORT UTILITY. The AC seems to be working fine, but the fans aren't coming on so the cold air isn't blowing out. I had somebody work on the AC before and I think they messed up the wire harness that is below the dash...

Sorry to keep bugging everyone about this, but I just don't know. 77 dodge van 318. On startup ammeter needle swings from full charge to midrange. Loud squealing when ammeter needle swings to full charge. Noise goes away after engine warms up. I think I tried tightening the belt long time ago and...

best anti-RF ignition wiring TYPE background: I am getting my vintage AM/FM Delco reconditioned with the intent of getting that "cruis'n feeling" I will also add non-vintage sound deadening, and other electrical/static improvements noted here and elsewhere. Thanks for the help. My query in a...

I have an Isuzu inline single cam 4 banger. A head gasket replacement is in the near future since I seem to have a bit of coolant getting into at least one cylinder. The engine has 187K on it. It has been well maintained by myself since I acquired it around 100K and runs strong with very...

Those small projector headlights on a lot of Acuras, BMWs, etc. are supposed to give a brighter, focused beam that helps the driver, but what about other people's ability to see you? Being seen can be as important as seeing the road. A lot of times they look like evil snake eyes that don't really...
