Trailering 71 Olds 442 by
Joe
Good morning:
I need to take my olds from Tucson to Dallas, but the car has been run once
since about 1994. That was when I put it on a trailer to bring it to
Tucson. It took about twelve quarts of transmission fluid to get it to
move, and that has since surely all leaked out. I'm concerned...

My friend had the timing belt replaced recently in his 95 Subaru
Outback
Legacy with 2.2 Liter 5 speed. He noticed a slight decrease in power
at the low end of the RPM's, but no loss at he upper end of the RPM
band. Is there a way to check / adjust / set the timing? Could the
timing have been...

How much to fix a flat these days? by
Jim Warman
I don't know if "across the board" free flat repairs have made it into
Canada, yet. I do know of tire shops that offer "lifetime" rotations and
balancing along with flat repairs on tires that they have sold. We have two
tire shops that use this marketing strategy in our town.... This is a...

broken alternator? help! by
[email protected]
Hi,
I have a 1986 Mazda 323 (fuel injected). I was driving back home
the other day when the electronics started to go. The radio started
cutting in and out, and eventually faded to static. Next the
tachometer would slowly drop down toward 0, but then catch again (just
the gauge - the engine was...

Wiring help needed, 93 Dodge Shadow by
Steve Walker
Got the wife a remote start for Xmas. Found out I can get a T-harness
connector to make the install easier, but the website says it's only for
a 1994 Shadow. The harness plugs in between the ignition switch
connector. I'd like to avoid cutting wires if possible, so I need to
know if this will fit a...

Yesterday, while driving, my caravan suddenly decided to quit on me. I
was making a right hand turn and while slowing down, the vehicle seemed to
bog down as if to stall out. After making the turn, the same thing occured
while giving it gas to speed up. Well, it got so bad, that the...

Auto Tranny Planetary Gear?? by
Steve
I have a machine shop project that requires a Planetary Gear for a gear
reduction. Although I could build it from 'off-the-shelf' gears, it would be
much more cost effective if I just used something like those in automatic
transmissions.
I've worked on a lot of car engines and a couple manual...

Help interpreting weird Goodyear tire size? by
JHD
I have a 99 Dodge Durango and need to replace the tires, but the Goodyears
on the vehicle now are marked "31x10.5R15LT". Evidently this is an optional
tire size, the standard for this model being 235/75R15.
I understand the latter nomenclature; 235mm width, 75% of that for sidewall
height, and...
