    solved my misfire

    I think there was a tech article on this. But it's not too difficult. 1. take off the six bolts, the one in the lower back corner is a pain. I use a 1/4 inch drive socket to break it loose, it needs to be a short one because of the power brake unit, I had to grind one down to fit in there...

    Front end alignment

    Hope someone can answer this. I was under my car and there are two flat aluminum bars, each about 3-feet long. They have something to do with the front end alignment or stabilization. Anyway at the front end of the each one there is a vertical bolt that looked loose. So I commenced to tightening...

    Hydraulic Fan Leak

    Got lucky on this one. I was all set to pull the pump. Jacked up the car, set it on jack stands, crawled underneath and started looking around. Well the pump looked like a little bit of a bitch to get out, since the pump was above the alternator I would need to take off also. Then I thought I...

    Hydraulic Fan Leak

    I filled it up with fluid this morning and it shot right out. It was leaking below the reservoir but more towards the front of the car. It pretty much shot out all over the serpentene belt. Do these hoses have the disconnects like the AC lines with the o-rings? Can it be driven without the fluid...

    Hydraulic Fan Leak

    I lost my hydraulic fluid for my fan today. Had the AC on and outside temp was reading 102. I smelled some oil burning and I was on a newly paved road and thought it was the asphalt. My AC stopped cooling and I drove another 15-miles to home. About a mile from home temp was redlined. So I turned...

    Car hit curb, wheel messed up and car wouldnt start, booooooo

    All parts are fairly easy to replace. Most likely lower control arm would absorb most of the impact. If your hub is not broken then probably it is just the lower control arm. Not likely the upper control arm would be damaged. Visually compare it to the right side. The link is about six inches...

    Car hit curb, wheel messed up and car wouldnt start, booooooo

    Another thought; If you knocked the wheel back far enough into the wheel well it may have damaged or severed the fuel line at the filter, which sets right behind the left front wheel in the wheel well under the inner wheel skirt. I would check that first. Also if you need a lower control arm...

    Car hit curb, wheel messed up and car wouldnt start, booooooo

    Mine hit a curb on the left front wheel. destroyed the wheel, hub, and lower control arm. The aluminum lower control arm was bent back about 2 inches. Upper control arm and knuckle were fine.

    Another V8 misfiring

    I put a fresh tank of premium in it and and some fuel system cleaner. But I've only driven it about 40 miles, so I'll give it a good drive this weekend and get some fuel ran through it. Hopefully no more issues.

    Another V8 misfiring

    OK I went to Autozone. Here in CA they won't read the codes but they give you the machine if you leave a deposit then you go out to the parking lot read your codes and take it back in and get your deposit back. Anyway I had NO codes. It was still missing while setting at a stoplight. Idle was...

    Another V8 misfiring

    Ok so venting the covers doesn't help, then scratch that idea. Has anyone just replaced the boots to cure this problem or is it the actual coils that are the usual culprit.
