DIY fuel injector cleaning by George Bray
I want to clean my fuel injectors as preventive maintenance. There's no sign of anything wrong but I assume the injectors won't suffer from being cleaned. Adding an expensive snake oil treatment to the gas tank sounds too uncertain to me. I propose removing the injectors to dip them in carb...

Gas prices... by Zoggin
Some anaylists predict gaslone prices to exceed $2.00 a gallon by this summer for the entire US. Those places that already have exceeded the $2.00 barrier could as high as $3.00 a gallon. The only good I see of this is to get all the damned SUV's off the road. Let's see how $100.00+ fill ups...

gas filter bowls by RB
Old gas engines used to have glass filter bowls just prior to the carburetors for collecting trash and water. . I'd like to find one of the bigger ones of those assemblies. Who made the things? Are they available in parts stores anymore, or are they strictly a junkyard item?

The "Big Three" market share is now only 48%. They totally abondoned cars for light trucks. Only this coming model year-2005- will...
