I must have missed that one! I've had to replace rims that were thoroughly rotted out from the water in some of the fix a flat type cans. I'm real positive the damage came from this because the rims

I don't remember the proper name, but I figured you'd understand me using the phrase panel pins. I was hoping that's what Eastwood calls them in their catalogs. In any case, their like removable, reu

Since I'd already mentioned this, you're not differening with me. Not at all. While the numbers are slight, so is the volume of liquid fuel flow, especially when compared against the vast quantity of

I thank you one and all for the help! I now know quite confidently that the car's running glycol based fluid, as it should, and not silicone. Great tests, both water mixing and paint stripping. I was

Dave already gave the numbers and such for the Bentley manual. So all I'll do give an enthusiastic agreement to that. It's head and shoulders above all the others.

MD emissions inspections don't involve you opening the hood. They only do that if you (a) fail the test, and (b) then want them to help you possibly diagnose the problem. MD emissions inspections als

It's darn hard to detect bad u-joints just by grasping and shaking the axle or yoke. Even experts can easily get tripped by them. They are just held in too firmly for your punny forces to impress the
