I am putting an electric fuel pump into an older car & want to use a fuel pump relay that will sense when the engine quits and shut off the pump. I know that with early fuel injection systems, many vehicles had this type of relay.

| Fixed the 740...but headlights inop! | 24 Mar 2007 08:21 GMT | 21 |
It didn't run *not* because it was being flooded out by too much gas. The mechanic who had worked on it had the camshaft set so that with #1 piston a TDC, the rotor was on #3 sparkplug! I reinstalled the fuel rail, reset the camshaft timing, and it fired right up, runs fine!

1985 245 OK, so I bought this wagon a few weeks ago and got all the oil leaks stopped. I degreased the underside and did only short city trips (less than 10 miles) for the last couple weeks. I saw no leaks on the engine

Getting this message from Wheelworks technician, claims "manufacturer requirement". There is nothing wrong with the rotors. Car has something like 70k miles on it. Wouldn't surprise me, seems like I have to get a new engine every time

I'm trying to determine the engine type I have. I was told I need a new catalytic converter, and can't afford to pay my shop 1200,00 canadian dollars. So I looked around and found some for way less. But, it seems I need

| Rear wiper arm on wagon | 22 Mar 2007 20:31 GMT | 2 |
This might fall into the category of dumbest question ever (a line I often walk). My rear wiper on the 95 850 turbo wagon only covers about half of the window, losing contact with the glass about midway through the stroke and leaving a dirty half-moon at the top of the
