| New Clutch Slips Terribly but only after 10 miles - Dodge Stealth | 06 Aug 2005 14:31 GMT | 12 |
Had a new clutch put in my 2WD 1993 Dodge Stealth a month ago - $900.00. It starts the day just fine with no slipping and quick acceleration. After about 10-20 miles it starts slipping terribly in all gears where the RPM's go from 2000 to 4000 without ANY

| cleaning carbon from pistons | 06 Aug 2005 03:57 GMT | 15 |
while I am doing my head gasket, I decided to clean the piston tops because I couldn't stand looking at them. #4 cleaned up real easy (rag and brake cleaner). #1 proved to be a pain. I got a chisel type scraper from the parts store that said it was for cleaning carbon and scraped ...

| How to remove a stripped timing tensioner bolt? | 06 Aug 2005 03:29 GMT | 21 |
Ok, so disassembling everything for my head gasket replacement WAS going well, in fact all too well, so fate had to do something drastic. Got everything off except the intake manifold and cam sprocket. I go to slack the timing belt, and the bolt head on the tensioner is COMPLETELY

| cig lighter battery charger | 05 Aug 2005 21:29 GMT | 7 |
I've had the third alternator burn out on my buick 93 the other day, and I had to have it towed. I was wondering about those battery charging boosters that fit into the cig lighter. Would that give you enough charge to get to the garage with

Hey all, I have a 1985 Corolla SR5 (AE86) and the air conditioner doesn't cool very well. It has a new compressor, expansion valve, high-side line, and drier. The fan clutch is also new. It has plenty of refrigerant (25-35 psi low, 250 psi high) and was

| how tough are o-rings? | 05 Aug 2005 01:31 GMT | 6 |
Behind my oil pump cover, there are two o-rings, one that seals the crank, and one that seals the tensioner bolt hole, and the rest is sealed with RTV. In torching the tensioner bolt (and pulley...) in a previous attempt to get the bolt off, a lot of smoke was produced. I hope it ...

| Turn signal, 93 grand prix | 05 Aug 2005 00:51 GMT | 3 |
The turn signal just stays lit. All lights work, but don't blink. The hazards work fine. I was told to replace the flasher, but I can't find it. There is no relay or flasher located anywhere in any of the fuse boxes. Where is it located.

| new head - to re-ring or not | 04 Aug 2005 23:19 GMT | 8 |
I seem to be picking up a lot of dissonance on this issue. All over the net I see people tell stories about how they took in their high mileage head for a valve job and milled flat, and they were thrilled that the motor ran like new thereafter, perhaps with a gasket shim to restore ...

| Guess on horsepower??? | 04 Aug 2005 22:37 GMT | 10 |
Good afternoon all, Maybe this is an amateur question, but based on the build specs below, does anybody have a rough idea (or ballpark guess) of what kind of horsepower this engine could generate? I have yet to get my car dyno'd.

| Wheels for an old axle | 04 Aug 2005 21:00 GMT | 3 |
On my farm we have an old trailer that was built using some sort of Ford truck axle. The trailer is at least 45 years old, so the axle must be over 50 years old. It is definitely a Ford axle since it has the Ford script on the bearing cap. The wheels are the old split rim type. ...

I have a Mazda Millenia 2000 V6 2.5 L (the non-supercharged version) and because of travel / car-pooling, only have 47,000 miles on it.. I've read some Mazda websites and other dealer recommended maintenance schedules, which say to have the tranmission fluid and filter changed at ...
