Had about 150 lbs of tools, parts, and luggage. I never drove one of these
before. IMO, it was the strangest looking car/suv I have...

fuel 03-05 Z car and G35 coupe
Does this 3.5 engine _require_ premium fuel or is it just recommended for max
performance?
I will ask several more dealers next week. No one seems to know for sure.

'06 Isuzu SUV, 4wd, 2.7 V6 critique
I had to go to Dallas again last week. My choices at Budget were a Jeep Liberty
or an Isuzu SUV. I chose the Isuzu because it looked nicer and had more knobs.
It was really weird in that it was made for people with very short legs and really
long arms. I did...

Jag XK8 / XKR by

Jag XK8 / XKR
I've been looking at used cars again.
I can get a 00 to 02 XK8 or XKR for ~$25k with 35k miles.
All my cars have lasted 10 years or 225k miles before trade in.
Any thoughts on the Jag?
Future parts availability?
Reliability?
Or would I be better off with an 03/04 Infinity G-35 sport...

Yep. It's about 199 proof, but reverts to 190 proof due to teh
affinity ethanol has for water. Ethanol ETOH) can't be more than

FAILED emisions (California) on 1988 COLT by
~^Johnny^~
It's fine (way below average) at 2500 RPM,
but fails at idle. Compression is fine.
Jet valves are fine.
Did change oil, spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor.
Still fails at idle (HC a little too high)
reads 170 ppm, max allowed is 120, average is 20.
At 2500 RPM, it is near average!

door, with the 3800 fuel injected engine. The starter works fine,
engine spins freely but doesn't even try to fire. Electric fan comes
on when you turn on...

I am thinking of buying a boat and plan to tow it with my '94 Cadillac
Fleetwood. This is the fullsize RWD model, brother to the Chevy
Caprice. The Fleetwood was available with a factory tow package rated
for 7500 pounds. Mine didn't come with that but I am in the process of
upgrading...
