what if mesh guard for MAF sensor is missing? by
[email protected]
I noticed in two different cars that the airflow sensor was missing
the honeycomb mesh guard that is used to promote laminar flow
across the wires.
What is the effect of this? I presume the mixture would be too rich
or lean, but then the ECU would monitor the exhaust oxygen sensor
and would...

serious parking/emergency/hand brake issues:

LS1 to a 42LE transaxle by
Bruce
I am working on a custom build of a mid engine car. I have but a 42LE tranaxle
from a 2000 chrysler 300 onto a 2001 corvett LS1 motor. Does anyone know where
I could get some help with the wiring to make this set up fuction. I could
make it shift manually but that defeats the dream.

1987 Buick Park Avenue brake release lever, by
[email protected]
Just got a phone call. Someone's brake release broke. The cable came loose at the unseen far end. The main thing is to undo the brake and drive the car back to the garage. A brief google search came up with nothing.
Any idea of whether there is a pawl under the hood I can poke with a stick?

Or GM just avoiding liability?

Organize Sockets by
[email protected]
What is the best way to organize about 100 sockets (1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drives) in the 20" toolbox I carry in my car?
(The Lisle plastic trays take up so much room in my toolbox that there's little room for my other tools).

We have a 2003 Chevy Tahoe with a 5.3 V8 engine. We recently got a check engine light for a knock sensor. The message on the scanner was "Knock sensor reading low voltage". I have read about this problem a bit and it seems like the harness inside the engine, rather than the sensor itself usually...

FWD cars ruin brick paving? by
[email protected]
My wife has a friend who has been doing brick paving for about 20 years.
I asked him why you see so many brick driveways that have spread out
after a few years, was this due to the soil or just shoddy workmanship?
I mentioned that Indianapolis racetrack was once brick paved, and it stood up
