This protege have a manual transmission, it's becoming harder to shift

The 'Security' light on the instrument panel is coming on in my 98 Chevy
Astro van. It comes on when the key is turned on, then goes out for about a

My 1998 Olds Bravada (147000 miles) usually starts quick. One day it
just turned over and never fired. Checked some routine things. It was
like that for days. Check engine light was on. One day started as

I've had my car (2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara) for a couple of years now
and hardly ever use the 4x4 since it's part time and I rarely drive it
in the snow.  The times when I have used it in the snow, it totally
sucked!  I thought it was my bald tires, so I recently got new tires.

Just pulled a code 179, lean adaptive limit while at

Fuel mileage has been down a bit from about 18 to 16.7 or so, and it
finally threw a code.

Hi, I'm trying to start up my 84 Park Avenue that has been in mothballs for
about 6 months, so I can sell it.  It is VERY cold outside.
I expected the battery to be dead so I hooked it up to my 50 amp power supply.
Got headlights, interior lights, dash gauges and climate motor.  I ...

I have a rebuilt engine in my Astro van that runs rough when the
engine starts cold.  When the computer goes into closed loop, the
engine runs fine.  Any ideas on what to look for?  No check engine

1994 Sentra.  Rear sway bar has stock rubber bushings, which are
producing a very annoying and loud squeak noise on sharp bumps (like
backing out of the driveway, speed bumps, potholes, etc).  I have
removed the bushing from one side to diagnose the source of the sound,
