Hi All: Just wondering if anyone has ever proven that these fuels additives at the automotive stores really work. I tried using Techron and it seems odd that this little amount of fluid diluted with a tank of fuel is going to do anything at all. I also recall that there are poeple who swear by...

Well, I finally took the truck into the shop this week. They test drove it and heard the same sound - Now, it happens (most times) at about 45mph and above - never on accleration and only when either you let up on the gas, or just coast. When the speed drops below about 40mph, the sound always...

I have a 97 Ford Ranger and don't like the headlights. I've been told that replacing them w/ lights 01 or newer will make a big difference. Do they just bolt right into place like the existing ones? Or do I need to make some alterations? TIA Tom Seattle

i have a 93 escort with 180k. i am constantly tempted to put stickers all over it, spray paint flames, glue things on, all manner of silly things. but i wonder- say this car dies in 6 months, will a scrap yard or similar pay me any money for it? are undinged panels worth anything? should i preserve...

I have a '98 Subaru Forester with automatic transmission and all wheel drive. The 1st to 2nd shift is very abrupt, even if you're accelerating gently. It feels even a bit more harsh than a full-throttle shift. The fluid was changed but that didn't help. One mechanic says there's nothing that...

Hi.. I have an 89 Chevrolet Suburban. It has a 350 fuel injected engine and 4 speed transmission. Just recently it started to loose power.

It is an 88 gasoline 300E, straight 6 cyl. auto trans, and it is getting more difficult to get into high gear. I sometimes can hit the passing gear and it will upshift, after a surge forward for a few hundred feet, great going then, when it does upshift to high gear. but mostly it likes to run in...

I have a 1995 Olds Cutlass Supreme that has 151,000 miles. I'd like to get another two years out it since that is when my HELOC loan will be paid off. The car sags on the LR wheel and overall does not ride that well. Also, the ABS light comes on quite a bit whenever I turn in to a driveway or...
