Car shaking after changing spark plugs by
Wei Hu
Hi,
Today I replaced the six spark plugs of my 94 Ford Taurus.
However, when I stop for red lights, the car shakes every one or two
seconds.
Does anybody know the reason?
Could it be that I didn't adjust the gap?
Thanks,
Wei

Oil Pressure Gauge and Engine death by
CL (dnoyeB) Gilbert
Trying to get some lessons learned from my first car 'death.'
To make it short, the oil gauge started behaving curiously to me
probably last year this time. But since the oil light didnt come on,
and the pressure seemed high enough, nothing seemed wrong. This turned
out to be bad because the odd...

Daimler steel/plastic "alloy" by
Don Stauffer
Buying a new Chrysler van, and the salesman was tauting a new "alloy"
that he said Daimler developed. He called it an alloy, but the
description seems to indicate a laminate, plastic on steel. I am
assuming it is a single layer of each. He said it provides both

Input please by
[email protected][_2_]
I have a 1976 vette with about 120K miles on it.
Last year I had to do a fair amount of work on it (spring, shocks, rad
support bracket, new rad, new water pump.).
It seems to have been developing a problem and I am not sure what it
is.
I thought it started about the time I installed the new...

87 Mazda 626 - trying to remove front brake rotor by

Need some help here. I'm trying to remove the front brake rotor from an 87
Mazda 626 (pulsing brakes - probably a warped rotor). With the wheel and
brake caliper off, there is nothing that appears to hold the rotor on. But
banging on the rotor and a reasonable amount of force with a puller,...

are all engines the same? by
Jizzosh[_1_]
Alright, here's what I'm getting at: currently, the car I'm driving
before I get my liscense is an in-line 4 cylinder. Now, just say that
each cylinder has a displacement of .5 liters for each type of 4
cylinder(v, inline, boxer etc.), would they all have the same RPM? Or
does the crankshaft have...

Bringing Back the Classic Gas-guzzler by
[email protected]
I'm wondering about the feasability of recreating the appearance of
classic American autos, like the '57 Chevy & such; but with lighter
materials and hybridized engines.
Imagine driving a '48 Studebaker -- but getting 50 miles to the gallon.
That's what I'm talking about. The bodies of immortal...

Methyl Hydrate by

I see lots of folks who claim that putting an amount of methyl hydrate

giving me fits being just barely over the edge on both HC and CO, but

"Full Synthetics" by
Rudy Hiebert
It may come as a shock to some but "Full" is not the same as "100%".
The brands that have that on the lable want to make you get the
impression that it is. It's not illegal because there is no rule that
says anything about a minimum amount of synthetics before it's called
"Full".

Jumping a Car Battery by
Buck Turgidson
Just want to confirm the procedure to jump a battery - connect the 2
positives (red), then the negatives (black). Then disconnect starting with
the black?
For some reason, I had it in my mind that you connect the black first to
prevent an "open ground", but I guess I am wrong.
Appreciate any...
