Something for nothing: GM and the unions by
Mike
Something for nothing: Part II
By Thomas Sowell
Published March 3, 2006
Government is not the only institution that promises something for
nothing. The decline of General Motors is just one consequence of the
idea labor unions can get their members something for nothing.

Chrysler fuel mixture lean - how to fool the PCM? by
Peter
Can anybody tell me _exactly_ how Chrysler PCMs determine 'fuel mixture
lean' condition? I'm running Dodge Durango 99 on propane, and PCM
consistently throws P0171 condition. Propane computer (Autronic) feeds
emulated O2 sensor signal into vehicle PCM, and allows me to set emulation
parameters:...

Intrepid brake light by
Dillon Family
One of the light bulbs in the third (center) brake light of my '00 Intrepid
is burnt out. Looks like I have to pull off the trim from underneath the
trunk lid to get to the bulb. Is there an "easy" way (and what is the
proper tool to use) to pull off the trim and those plastic nuts so I can...

1996 LH Fuel Level Sensor by
Bob Shuman
The fuel gauge on my son's '96 Eagle Vision TSI (3.5L, 90K miles)
occasionally loses sanity and shows "empty" when it is not. I am guessing
that this is likely caused by a dirty or defective fuel sender. The FSM
seems to show this is relatively easy to access through a cover behind the
rear...

ATF+4 in '95 Voyager? by
Jeff Wieland
I just had the fluid changed on my '95 Voyager with the 4-speed
automatic. The dealer put in ATF+4. Since then I've seen the text of
TSB 21-004-04, which is certainly one of the most confusing documents
that I've read in quite a while. The text of it appears...

Advice with '73 Valiant by
[email protected]
Hello all,
I just purchased a '73 Plymouth Valiant in faded root-beer brown with
the 225 slant six from a co-worker for the grand sum of $0. While I'm a
car buff, I've never really worked on cars before, and I figure this is
a good basic car to learn how to tinker on and dream about fixing up
into...

Mr.X
DEALER tire rotation w/ full size spare, One dealers "POLICY" FYI

This engine is in my 1990 Montero. Recently, I replaced the oxygen
sensor as the service engine light kept staying on and the code in the
computer was for the oxygen sensor, plus the car was sucking lots of
gas. After replacing the sensor, the fuel economy went back up, but

1990 Cherokee hard to crank by

A good buddy recently bought a 1990 Cherokee Limited with the inline 6.
Every time he tries to start it after it's sat for awhile it takes a looong
time to finally fire. Time is 8-10 seconds. With winter coming, he's
concerned with keeping enough battery capacity available on cold Canadian
