1988 Buick LeSabre needs a new R&P assembly.  Haven't been under there
recently but...Anyway, I'm not a complete clown with a wrench so I'm
wondering if there is anything particularly useful anyone has learned
other than just jump in there and go at it?  As i understand, it is

My sister is taking her 97 Metro in for the 100,000 mile timing belt
change.  Is it the case in the Metro that the water pump is easy to
reach/change at the same time as the belt is replaced?  She has the
1.3L 4 cylinder engine.

Any ideas how long it should take a shop to replace one?  An hour, two,
more?  Thx.

What will cause the headlights not to work on a 1998 GMC Safari?  The
switch has been replaced.

Is there such a tool?  I always have trouble taking them off, and
sometimes end up ruining the plug wire.....thanx

Hi! I have a ’95 Chevy Lumina with some weird issues. It’s got about
140,000 miles on it, but it’s been a pretty good car in the 3 1/2
years I’ve owned it. Last year at inspection time, it needed front
struts. Ever since, my anti-lock light stays on. Most recently, it has

Anyone know where I can get the 'pin' that goes in the seat belt
webbing?  I have two cars that BOTH lost the little 'tack' that
keeps the buckle from sliding all the way down to the floor when
you unfasten the belt.

What type of Fuel Injection was GM using in these cars in '86?

Thank you for your reply. 58,000 miles on a $500 fuel pump is nothing short
of a crime. You could at least had the decency to pull a gun on me and had
me put my hands in the air while you relieve me of $700.
If this is GM's stance on a poorly designed and trouble prone part, then

Can anyone tell me the pocedures for replacing the thermostat in my 99
Lumina? Thanks.  I replaced the water pump easily but it looks like it
will be a little more to the thermostat, that's if it's where I think
it is.
