DYI Manuals Crown Victoria by [email protected]
I was also going to suggest that used factory service manuals or the version on CD-ROM sells chaeply on eBay and is much better than any Hayes or Chilton manual is.

check engine light on Ford Ranger by Ropert's Aloha
I have a 95 4cyl,5spd Ford Ranger with 89k miles and the Check Engine light has come on. The truck runs perfect. What could set off the light? I have a Haynes book, but they make it sound like for a 95 and on, I won't be able to check the codes without a scan tool. In fact I can't even find the...

Different types of crankshaft radius - what's the (dis)advantage? by mahi
I was looking at various models of crankshafts and noticed there are 3 different types of implementing a radius. My technical English isn't very good, so I made an image that clearly shows the 3 different types: <http://www.tweakers.net/ext/f/46946/full.png> Number 1 is probably the most used...

Greetings all, I have a 96 Chevy Cavalier that is giving a grinding (almost, but best I can discribe) noise when turning right. My first thought was something rubbing (kind of what it sounds like), but this is not the case as far as I can tell (almost positive it is not). Next thought was drive...

"Full Synthetics" by Rudy Hiebert
It may come as a shock to some but "Full" is not the same as "100%". The brands that have that on the lable want to make you get the impression that it is. It's not illegal because there is no rule that says anything about a minimum amount of synthetics before it's called "Full".
