antifreeze question by George[_10_]
Backstory: '99 Cavalier 2.2. Coolant was low. Then, very low. Thinking it had a leak, and needing to drive it, I added straight water. I drove it like that for a couple of weeks like that, and the water level in the surge tank stayed the same. (So, there's still a question as to why the coolant...

'78 camaro going thru starters like they're going out of style by [email protected]
So a few months back the starter in my '78 camaro died, and I replaced it with a reman one from pep boys (lifetime guarantee, so it seemed like a better deal than a Delco). The second starter lasted just under a month on a car that is only driven 2-3 days a week. The third starter lasted a week. ...
