I can be kinda dumb when it comes to cars, but I've always wanted to learn about them. I don't want to become a mechanic but I want to be able to take care of the "simple" stuff that I should know. Now I bought a "Car repair for dummies" book like a year ago, read like 200 pages out of 400-500...

A Ford Quick Lane shop quoted me $70 for a tune-up and $25 for a lube. Do those prices seem right? Are they likely to include parts and labor? Are they likely to do a good job? It's for a 2002 Ford Focus with between 140,000 and 150,000 miles on the odometer, which I bought used recently.

When I wanted to look at the air filter in cars of the past, I think I just had to remove a wing nut to remove the filter cover, and the filter would be lying there loose, to simply take out. But when I look at a 2002 Ford Focus, I see at least six screws that seem to need to be removed to open...

Hi there, This isn't anything super-important, but I was just curious- I have a '78 Buick Regal with a 3.8 V6. I had the oil changed back in January to (non-synthetic) Mobil 5W-30 because it starts better with the 5W-30. Thanks to walking a lot and using public transportation, I have only driven...

I recently was detailing my car and noticed after that there are now continuous scratches on the clear plastic in front of the instrument cluster. Not sure how it happened, the terrycloth towel I was using may have had a pebble in it. They don't feel deep. I tried some LCD polish and microfiber...

What does P1451 mean on a 1997 Lincoln Town Car Cartier series? I looked up P1451 on the web and I get different answers -- do the trouble codes mean different things for different cars? One site said it had something to do with a passive alarm system, another said it had something to do with...

Hello, I just bought a 1996 toyota tercel only to find out the very next morning it wouldnt start. After turning the key all the dash lights would light but there was no cranking (silence). After several frustrating attempts it started. This problem has continued. It starts just fine when the...

'99 Cavalier, 2.2L. On warm days, with a hot engine, it won't start. After sitting a couple of hours, it's OK. When it won't start, the temp gauge is stuck on cold. As soon as this starts working, the engine starts. So, maybe a bad ECT. But, after starting, the temp guage will intermittently...

I'm having a helluva time getting the fan clutch loose from waterpump on my truck. It's a 1988 Ford F-250 with the 7.3 litre diesel. I checked and double checked the new water pump, and yes indeed, it is a left-handed thread. (I still just feel wrong turning a bolt the 'wrong' way to loosen...
