Starbrite Enzyme fuel treatment. by JR[_8_]
I was trying to start my walk behind lawn mower, I bought that lawn mower in April 2011. It won't start, I filled the gas tank and I pushed the primer bulb a bunch of times, I didn't hear any fuel going into the carburetor. I think ethanol has messed it up. I was wondering if Starbrite Emzyme fuel...

See CA DMV report attached (how to interpret the Critical DrivingErrors) on this failed driving test by Zen
My kid went with the wife to take the California DMV driving test & failed. Neither the wife nor the kid seems to know WHY the DMV flunked them (which I find hard to believe - but that's why I'm asking you). Here is the test result (with personal information redacted): ...

Safe way to prevent car starting? by mike[_31_]
I have a '90 nissan pickup. I want to debug a sluggish starter. I'd rather not have to drag the DSO out into the garage to measure the current and voltage drops. If I could prevent the car starting for a second or two, I could easily use a clamp-on meter. In the old days, I'd just disconnect the...

Lets break down the heavy fuel passenger car market penetration issueinto smaller, edible chunks by AD[_2_]
Onto the insulated gas tanks. Sure, you have space that below the cargo floor for a smaller (due to low temp insulation) capacity diesel tank. How would you suggest to do it in the cramped quarters of a compact car with an ever more fierce competition to provide more trunk space (at the expense of...

Solved: Vehicle fuel pump as a transfer pump by Existential Angst[_2_]
Awl -- Thanks to Bob Haller -- and other input, of course -- I found a dert simple way to do this, with no ill effects to the car's pyooter or anything else. Rather than fool with the pressurized supply line (the shrader valve bob spoke of), I found the *return line* to the gas tank, and used...

Can a starter motor get "weak"? by Jack[_32_]
My 87 Dak is acting like the battery is weak, but it has a Sears Diehard, less than a year old, and all the cells are full and check out good with a specific gravity tester. The voltage at the battery is 14.5 volts when idling and 13.25 volts after charging on a 10 amp charger. I cleaned both ends...
