Cost of a transmission FLUSH? by
Moochie
I was wondering how much I should expect to pay for a transmission
fluid flush (not a drain). I'm talking about when they completely
remove all the old fluid and replace it with new fluid, as opposed to
just draining and re-filling. I've got a 1998 Honda Accord LX 4-cyc
with 72K miles.
I was...

1996 Geo Metro by
SuzyQ
son's 96 Geo Metro's clutch pedal suddenly sunk to the floor and stayed
there. Does anyone know if this might be a relatively simple and
inexpensive problem to repair or an involved and expensive problem? Time
to buy a new car?

Putting drain plug kit in Auto Trans?? by
[email protected]
I just bought an B&M Auto Trans drain plug kit. I'm thinking of just
draining the tranny by using my dremel to drill a small hole where the
plug is going to go. Then I'll widen it out the the appropriate width
with a drill bit after removing the pan.
It appears that my 3.4L Pont. Grand Am has a...

Does anyone calbrate their Coats wheel balancer? by
[email protected]
I am trying to figure out how to do the high accuracy calibration on a
Coats 1001. You use a balanced wheel, put the switch to test, attach a
4 oz weight and hit start. You are supposed to adjust the gain and
phase pots so that all LEDs are off. The question is when are you
supposed to take the...

328i bmw maintenance questions by
SQ
Looking at a '98 328i with 144K miles, 5-spd.
It has no maintenance records whatsoever. Assuming nothing
has been done to it, the mileage is such that it's heading into the
major repairs zone, IMO.
Should I assume that within the next 10-20K miles I will have
to replace lots of things, like:...

RobH
I was driving my 96 Mazda 626 on the interstate, at about 70mph, on a
gradual curve. I think I hit a small bump, maybe an expansion joint,
when suddenly I heard a small soft thunk and my steering wheel suddenly
moved left in my hands - but the car kept going where I'd been
pointing. Alarmed, I...

Accel breakerless ignition? by

I can get a price on one below the Pertronix I. But is that a deal? I
saw on the Accel web site they use an "optical" sensor. My fear with
the Pertronix is that I or someone will put the ignition to "on" or run
it all day in the Texas heat and burn the unit out, so what I am
wondering is, is that...
