ORPHAN CARS by

The great orphan cars are seldom discussed. Studebaker, Packard, Nash,
Hudson, Kaiser, Willys, Muntz, AMX, Javelin, and the like. No interest?

battery question by
Jim Beaver
I've got a '02 Jeep Grand Cherokee. About three weeks ago, it suddenly
failed to start -- no lights, no chimes, no meters -- this just an hour or
so after driving it without a hint of battery problem. The battery (which

Does this sound like a bad starter? by
Dave K.
A few weeks ago, our '94 Caravan began having some problems.
When you'd turn the key to start it, you'd hear a click and nothing would
happen. The next time you did it, it would start and run fine.
Within the last week, it got worse. You'd turn the key 3-5 times and nothing
would happen then it...

Question to those who use synthetic oil by
Joe Blo
I am considering switching to synthetic oil when I buy a new Accord in
the next few months. Do the manufacturers of synthetic oil offer a
sticker to put near the engine block reminding anyone who services my

dealer or those quick...

Gas prices... by
Zoggin
Some anaylists predict gaslone prices to exceed $2.00 a gallon by this
summer for the entire US. Those places that already have exceeded the
$2.00 barrier could as high as $3.00 a gallon.
The only good I see of this is to get all the damned SUV's off the
road. Let's see how $100.00+ fill ups...
