I have a 66 belair. I put in a fresh rebuilt 68' 350 chevy motor with 410 hp. I got it all hooked up, and i have a problem when i try to accelarate, it feels similar to the power of my old original 283 motor. It literally feels like im getting maybe 150ish hp. When i push the pedal down, the car's...

Posting car problem questions without this information is a waste of electrons. Engine and transmission options would be nice too! Thank you. Don www.donsautomotive.com

Just bought a new axle shaft for my 01 crown vic, its dry, kind of dirty, but its new. how do i clean it and should i lube it up before installing it?

Was planning to go out of town the other day, and my battery in the 97 Dodge Custom Van was dead as hell. In my haste, I checked all the interior lights, etc, and put the charger on it overnight. The next morning, the charge indicator on the charger indicated low, but I took a reading with a...

Can someone tell me what causes the instrument panel "radiator light" to stay on? The car is running somewhat hotter than usual. But it has plenty of fluid in the system and the reservoir. The "user manual" says that its just a "cooling system problem" and to check the fluid level, and that the...

Driving a block a way from home my Acura Integra just stops running, the electrical stayed on but the engine was dead. Trying to turn the car over only resulted in a "starter" winding noise but the engine would not turn over. After waiting 5 min I tried again, the car started, moved 10 yards then...

My a/c on my '97 S-10 isn't draining. Where do I find the drain tube. Can I blow it out from down under the truck? Or will that rupture something. If not from down under, where is a logical point to access the tube for cleaning?

I've decided that since my Corolla needs new brake fluid, I would just use DOT4 to replace the current DOT3 fluid. I've built a homebrew pressure tank bleeder to make it a 1 man job. You can take a look at it he http://geocities.com/mrbrakebleeder/ My question: Since I on flushing out the...

My kid lost one of the two keyless entry fobs for our 2003 LeSabre. I bought a replacement on eBay, but it arrived without any programming instructions. Is the programming something I can do through a procedure like switching the ignition on and off in a pattern, and if so how? Will I have...

HI! Can I replace this myself - I am fairly handy? 2.3 liter Q4 Buick Skylark. If it's not easy or you need special tools - how much time (labor hourd) should I be charged for this work??? I can get the pump at autozone for about $25 Thanks!! Mike

('99 Cavalier 2.2, port-injected.) This particular car doesn't appear to have a tap on the fuel rail where a pressure gauge could be attached. The Chevy book calls for a J29658, which lets you insert a tapped line at the quick-disconnect. This may be a whole 'pressure kit', or something -...

Hi everyone, Let me start by saying i am not a 'car person'. I put gas in it, drive it and change the oil in it as needed -- you know, the basics. I have no idea what things cost to repair, all i know is only expensive things break on my car. haha Anyway, yesterday it seems as though my power...

and see the inconvenient truth too! information is power, conscious consumerism is power!

I have a 1982 Mercury Marquis 302 5.0 engine. My smog pump has locked up.... Is it needed???

My husbands car has had some starting issues since Dec. I took it into a mechanic thinking maybe the battery. The battery was okay but found out it was too small for the car. So we replaced the battery. Naturally, when I had the car at the mechanic it was starting just fine. He said that...

Are there any good web sites that tell you how to repair stuff on my Jeep?

Hi all, I have a 99 Silverado with a V-6 automatic. The tranny shifts but shifts very hard until it gets into high gear. It will shift normally after I restart it for a couple miles, then back into the hard shifting. Shut it off, it is good again for a couple miles. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

2001 crown victoria p71 police interceptor. with trac-lok Well for those who saw my last topic talking about the noise coming from my wheel, sure enough, the bearing is shot, but its worse. the bad bearing has damaged the axle. where the axle rests on the bearing, theres a stripe about 1mm deep,...
