| 2 snow tires on FWD car go on front or back? | 14 Feb 2006 02:53 GMT | 22 |
If I replace only two tires of a FWD car with snow tires, should they go in front or back? The other tires are all season tires. I used to think they should go in front, because braking, steering, and acceleration all use the front wheels. However, a friend went to a tire

Assuming the coolant level is fine, what would cause the heater to only put out hot air at highway speeds? This is a 1990 3.1 L Chevy with 200 + thousand miles on it. I replaced the heater core 9 months ago, the radiator was done this

| Why are car alarm starter relay normally closed? | 13 Feb 2006 21:06 GMT | 3 |
Why are car alarm starter kill relay designed to be normally closed? It would make practical sense to make the relay normally open because when the crooks pull the alarm fuse or the alarm unit out of the car, the car shouldn't be able to start. But in fact it's the opposite and ...

My situation is this... I have 2 flats (same side) and 1 spare (which is also flat). The discount tire I need to get to is 3.9 miles. Towing (since I'll need a flatbed) is seeming to be in the $75-100 range. What are the chances I
