Speedometer doesn't work, transmission hesistant shifting. by
[email protected]
I had a sensor replaced. I still have the same problem. Don't know if
it was the speed sensor. Is the speed sensor inside the transmission?
I took it to a reputable transmission shop and this problem has baffled
the technician. He also repaired some of the wiring. Could the problem
be somewhere in...

Brake fade by
HQJ
I have a problem with the brakes on a Rover 416. When light pressure
is applied to the pedal it will travel to the floor, the brakes still
work and the ABS will kick in if braking hard. Pedal pressure will
increase if the pedal is pumped. I thought it must be the M/cylinder
but...
I have had new...

question about Cibie for DS or anyone else by
I love Edsels
I may be able to get add-on driving lights soon for a small pickup (97
Ford Ranger) and I'm leaning towards Cibie but I don't know which, if
any, would be suitable. I want to get some use out of them around town
and in the rain, but not much, if any, out in the desert or forest. I
also want to be...

Suspension problem by
Mike Romain
They used to have 5 mph bumpers.
That is about it though.
New vehicles are the opposite of what you are looking for, they are
designed to collapse so the people don't take as much of a hit.
You hit a culvert or side of a driveway and all the weight of that van
is compressed into one corner with...

1995 Ford Aerostar - No Start by
Mark
Hi,
I am having a problem with a 1995 Ford Aerostar, 3.0L, 130k miles. The
engine will crank, but it won't start. I'm getting 39 lbs of fuel
pressure at the fuel rail. I checked one plug wire, and it is getting
spark. Can a bad hall effect sensor give me these symptoms? If so, can
this be...

Radiator Fan Relay on 97 Chrysler van by
[email protected]
For completeness, I found it. It is one the left (driver side) fender
on the inside near the horn. To get to it, the air filter and tubes
must be disassembled. Its a couple of clamps and a few bolts.
BTW, mine sucks. I am replacing this solid state relay for the fourth
time. I had the diagnostics...

Brake booster question by
Henry H. Hansteen
My 2001 Ranger has had a long, soft pedal and weak brakes for quite
a while. The dealer replaced the shoes, pads, master cylinder, and
the ABS unit. Four dealer visits later, the brakes still suck.
Now they want to replace the booster. I don't see how a bad booster
could cause long pedal travel,...
