Mixing tire brands? by
SQ
Question, I have 2 new Dunlop SP40's in front of my sedan, and
in the rear, I am thinking of getting something better, like
Michelin HydroEdge.
Is this a good idea or should I keep all 4 tires the same, plus the
spare? (this would allow ease of rotation)
Dunlop SP40 seem OK, don't know how they...

Change 3 of 6 spark plugs, Venture 2002 by
Auto
I want to change my spark plugs in my Venture 2002, but the back 3 are too
hard to get at. Is there any good reason that I can't at least replace 3
of the 6 plugs. Or is it all or nothing deal? I will be selling the van
in a year from now, so will put a cheap pair of plugs to replace. (I...

Wait a cycle after resetting MIL before inspection? by
Dean
I've had my Lexus LS400 exhaust repaired, and they reset the engine
light. Can I get it inspected immediately? (I'm in NJ if that makes
any difference.) Shop told me the OBD2 will show "Not Ready" for
around 100 miles and I will fail because of that. True or false?

Can an exhaust pipe be "epoxied"? by
Stan[_2_]
First the background...the vehicle is a 93 Nissan Quest minivan, 6 cyl
engine, with an exhaust leak.
It has about 270K miles on it, and living on borrowed time, so putting
in $500 to replace pipes is not very cost-wise. Yet I don't want exhuast
fumes coming up & I'll have to pass the state's DEQ...
