brake pipe body clamps? by
George[_23_]
(04 Cavalier)
I'm replacing some (rear) brake line. On their way to the back, the
lines go through brackets (/clamps? retainers?) that keep the lines (and
the 3 gas lines) aligned and secured to the chassis. The brackets have
rounded slots on one side to receive the pipes, and a hinged snap...

What do you call the material that all those signs strapped to
tellephone poles and on wires stuck in the ground are made of? By
people who have no respect for public property. They start off as
white, two layers with parallel "ribs" of the same material between the
two outer layers every...

What is Mr. Cheater's first name? by
micky
What is Mr. Cheater's first name?
I wanted to read up about him, but can't find Mr. Cheater online. The
inventor of the Cheater bar. There are so many things that couldn't get
done without his brilliant idea.

Anyone know what frequency they work at? Key fobs don't work at my house for some reason. You go two houses down and it works fine.

How good are stretch boots? (CV, steering) by
[email protected]
How good are those CV boots that can be installed without removing
the axle from the vehicle because the rubber is so stretchy that
even the small end of the boot can be stretched over the CV joint?
The boot is installed with either a stretcher or by slipping it
over a long cone that's lubed...

what was the last year Land Rover Defender
imported into the States?
Aside from the competition from Jeep
what where the other factors for it to sell poorly?

Since last wednesday when I was pulling a U Haul trailer with my 1948 Jeep on the trailer, my van was making a noise as though it was under a heavy load (Jeep weighs one ton) and some black smoke was coming out...

Blacktop at 80 degrees by
micky
I learned in the past couple weeks that blacktop at 80 degrees iirc is
soft enough that the wheels of a floor jack, or the bottom outline of
jack stands will sink into the blacktop. This is an especial problem
with a floor jack because it's meant to roll backwards as the car is
lifted, but if the...

2007 Ford Escape whine/vibration by

My wife's 2007 4 cylinder automatic escape has had a slight whine/vibration almost the whole time we have had it. It only seems to do it a idle and is worst at a "sweet spot" when giving it gas. This sweet spot is just barely pressing the gas. Along with a whine I can feel it in the steering wheel....

Accelerator pump (carburetor) question by

Trying to revive an old leather(?) pump. In the old days the instructions told you to soak in kerosene for 10 to 15 minutes. Don't want to pay $10 for a gallon of kerosene at ACE. Only need about an ounce. Is there an alternative? Can I use transmission fluid, gasoline, oils, anything else...

bending brake line by
George[_23_]
('04 Cavalier, rust belt)
I have to replace some brake line, and I'm thinking of doing the whole
run to the back wheels. Doing that would be a lot easier if the line
could be bent _easily_. I'm looking at AGS Nicopp (definitely bendable,
$$$) and Poly-Armour (not sure about bending, about half...

bleeding brakes: pressure bleed req'd? by
George[_23_]
(04 Cavalier)
A brake line popped while driving. So, "extreme loss of fluid", though
the reservoir might not have been _totally_ empty. For this case, the
AllData manual says pressure bleeding is necessary, in conjunction with
a high-end scan tool.
Not that anyone could know the exact...

Do brake pads have to be the same thickness?
AIUI, it doesn't matter.
I'm having real trouble getting the inner brake pad to fit all the way
into the appropriate space. It won't go in the last 3/8". I'll use a
brighter flashlight and try harder to see what is interfering with the

How to remove and replace a snap ring in a FWD car.
I hit a curb with my car and broke in half the right half-axle, broke a
big chunk out of the RF rim and a piece the size of a tea-cup saucer

right ball joint (2000 Toyota Solara,...
