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...

VW Cabriolet start up problem by
liu
For a friend of mine with a 199X Cabriolet:
The car starts and goes over 3000rpm at idle. Sometimes it will drop
to close to normal idle very briefly then it goes up again. 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...

Engine rebuild/replacement by
BSAKing
In a previous thread I went through the machinations associated with
determining if I had a bad cam or not on my old Vette. It turns out I
have so it needs to be replaced.
With some egging on from some chums, I have decided to go ahead and
pull the engine and try replace it, and lifters of course,...

Dealership "Necessary" For New Timing Belt ? by
Bob[_53_]
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...

years. It has 157,000 miles on it. Everything looks good, coolant nice and
green, brake fluid a nice light brown color, like brand new, oil a little
dark but not black. Must have been serviced right before being parked.

Bob[_53_]
Hi,
Have an 2005 Accord V6 with 100,000 miles on it.
Dealership wants to do a radiator flush, transmission fluid
flush/replace, and new spark plugs.
I remember reading somewhere that it is Not a good idea

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_]
Well, I experienced a bit with the tire pressure - I set it to 28 PSI
(instead of the recommended 32).
The ride comfort improved noticeably.
So, this leads me to the conclusion that even a slight increase in
tire pressure, like after driving for a while,
gives a bumpier ride on this car.
It seems...

NYC Taxicabs by
PolicySpy[_3_]
The Nissan NV200 has been chosen as the next NYC taxicab.
It's a mini-van with a sliding door, on a car frame, and it weighs
about 3,000 pounds. I see it listed with a 1.6 108 HP engine and I'll
guess the torque at 90 ft/lbs. I see it listed with a 1.5 turbo diesel
at 85 HP and 148 ft/lbs of...

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...
