Hi, I have five questions (below). Both the blower motor and radiator fan for my '91 Chevy Cavalier 2.2 liter no longer work, even though I replaced both motors last week. The 25 amp AC/Heater fuse blows every time as soon as I turn the key to "run" with the heater on. I must ...

Sorry to post yet again today, but my car needs a lot of help. :) I went to measure the outside diameter of my three fuel lines today with a 1" micrometer. At least one line is leaking. They are all very rusty near the rear. I need to replace about 60" worth of each line.

| electronic ignition | 21 Nov 2005 01:31 GMT | 3 |
My understanding is that an electronic ignition uses a transistor (ignition module), signal from the camshaft sensor (or pickup coil) and ECM to pulse the negative side of the coil on and off. If this is the case, how come so many automotive repair manuals and text books

| ATF Exchange: Would my idea work? | 20 Nov 2005 20:12 GMT | 6 |
I want to do an ATF exchange, rather than just a drain, change filter/gasket, and refill. Would this idea work: 1) Disconnect tranny outgoing line to radiator 2) Insert funnel into dipstick opening

I have a 91 Toyota Camry LE with 180k miles on it. It has 6 cylinders and is automatic transmission. Recently, I have found that after running the car for about 40 minutes or so, it will begin to idle roughly at stops. At first, I thought that perhaps it was because I

Anyone have this? After warm-up car will do 40 mph without depressing gas pedal. If I put it in neutral, it revs very high until the car is stopped then returns to normal idle. There are no sticky linkage probs.(seems electrical).
