My Trailblazer has started to shut off while I'm driving. After it shuts off the gauges start to flip out. It doesn't do it all the time but frequent enough to cause concern. Do you know if it's something I can fix myself or try to before taking it to a mechanic? Thanks.

I am having running/starting issues with my car. At first, it would randomly stall while driving, then the stalling started to happen more and more until my car would not start. It is carb., so I don't have to sorry about fuel injection issues. I measured the voltage at the "coil pack" inside the...

I have a 99 Taurus, the wiper on the driver said just freely swings back and forth, right off the windshield even. Any idea how I remove it? Are there bearing in the end of the arm? Will replacing the arm fix it?

Where to get a free VIN check? I remember there is something like a per month charge, and some website provide the check for free, or at a much cheaper price than buying directly. Carfax has 1 car check for 19.99, too much. I like monthly pay.

Anyone familiar with changing the oil pressure sending unit on a Sentra ? I'm trying to replace the oil pressure sending unit on a 96 Sentra 1.6 Liter engine. It looks like I'm going to have to unbolt a bracket which goes up to the intake manifold(?) to get it out of the way so I can put the...

I have a 1995 chevy suburban 1500 with about 115,000 miles. I have the 350CID engine and the automatic with OD. After warming up and driving it has begun "hunting" at idle (rpm's surging between 500 and 1000) and often dies. It will restart fine and then idles OK until I start driving...

So even though I am 18, I feel way behind the times right now. I just purchased my first aftermarket head unit that can play mp3 discs. (eclipse AVN5435) I am used to making burnt CDs that can play like 80 min of music... But now I am having one hell of a time trying to figure out how to burn an...

Hi, got a question regarding my intake manifold/vacuum leaks... About a year ago I traded a vintage Offenhauser manifold for a reproduction of a later factory manifold cast in aluminum. Big mistake. The repro does not fit. When I set it on the engine there's huge gaps although the manifold will...

Hi - I own a 2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara (and have owned it for over two years). Recently, it has started to emit a really bad burning smell immediately after riding the clutch a bit (like when I am pulling out of a parallel parking spot on a hill). My car NEVER did this before and just starting...

Slow city driving in the rain today when, with no warning or mishap, the "Service Engine Soon" light came on. No symptoms, car runs fine. Tried the ignition key on-off-on-off-on trick and got the "Service Engine Soon" light to blink out codes: 12 43 55. Alpar.com interprets this as two codes, 12...

I bought a 2001 chevy venture a few months back and today tried the AC for the first time and turning the AC on does not change the air temp one bit. after looking at it more carefully, i realized that when i push the AC button, usually there is a little sound and the engine noise changes when at...

HI Everyone, I have a 1997 Buick Riviera with the supercharged 3.8 engine in it. I'm having one heck of a problem. The car has been to my local mechanic and two buick dealers and they can't figure it out. I'm close to just starting to replace parts. Here's some symtoms: 1. If I drive the car to...

I'm getting lots of loud clacking on a 96 Nissan Sentra 1.6 Liter. Sounds like it's coming from the head. It has overhead cam, I believe. I had thought OHC did not use hydraulic valve lifters, so I thought sludged up lifters would NOT be causing the clacking. The clacking comes and goes, does not...

I have a 96 Subaru Legacy with 4 wheel disc brakes. I'm about to change the pads in the rear. My Chilton's manual says, "WARNING: Before beginning the procedure, determine whether your vehicle is equipped with a rear parking brake assembly. If equipped with rear parking brakes, only compress...
