Ok, I noticed that about 50% of the time, when I shift the car into neutral, the reverse lights would randomly come on (and then when I shift it back into Park and re-shift back to neutral, the reverse lights don't come on again. Also, on rare occasions, the reverse lights don't come on when I...

I'm replacing some rusted sections of fuel lines underneath my daily driver, and was wondering if anyone has experience using the copper-nickel brake line (instead of using replacement steel or nylon piping) to use as fuel line replacement? Any downsides? Thanks...

I was wondering if anyone has the two metal clips that secure the transmission coolant lines under the car? The one clip attaches to a stud that screws into the front right corner of the oil pan that secures the trans lines. The other clip is in the shape of a long "L" that attaches to the...

I was planning on buying a used Precision front mount intercooler, but I understand that the older ones used the better Spearco cores which are thicker/better quality than the more recent ones manufactured? Can anyone teach me how to determine the differences on these precision front mounts...

Ok, I was wondering how the center section flexible wind deflector attaches to the ledge of the grill. I know the bottom section attaches to the bottom of the rad support, but does the top section attach above or below the ledge of the grill? I have the other two smaller side sections properly...

Has anybody ever thought about this EGR cooler idea that Mazda came up with in their turbo cars nowadays? This seems like an awesome idea.

Ok, my original stock MAF sensor is finally crapping out on me (car is getting the MAF engine code on the Scanmaster, Check Engine Light is on, idles horribly, and the car dies as soon as I put it in Drive). I want to upgrade to the MAF translator and new MAF. The car has stock throttle...

Ok, today I started the car and got a Code 34 (check engine light on along with checking Scanmaster). The idle quality is a little crappy (idling high), and when I put the car in Drive, the engine bucks & stalls badly. I disconnected the MAF, restarted the car, and it seems to make no...

Ok, I have a pinhole leak on the bottom of my stock crossover pipe. Before I have a chance to get it weld repaired, would JB Weld hold up? I don't believe the crossover pipe gets as hot as the headers, so maybe this would work?...

I see that NGK sells the coil pack for our cars. Anyone using these or know how they compare with the stock GM/AC Delco units?

Ok, I was wondering exactly which way to gap spark plugs to be EXACTLY on the gap that you want? For example, I bought NGK UR5 plugs and their gap is .039" out the box. I know the preferred gap on our cars (below 20 psi) is between .032 to .035". I found a .034" on my spark plug wire gapper...

Ok, I'm in the process of installing an RJC boost controller (and thus removing the factory Y-hose & restrictor), and was wondering what size hose to install? I would like to order some high-temp silicone hose. I see that the silicone hoses typically come in 4,5, and 6 mm sizes. Some people...

Ok, I plan on looking at this car in a few hours, and was wondering if anyone can do a carfax for me? I can PM you the VIN #. Thanks!

Ok, for some reason, my engine seemed to have developed a slight miss, in which I can notice it at idle and can feel/hear puttt putt puttering through the exhaust while cruising. The car seems to boost fine. I was thinking its either a spark plug wire, coil pack, or spark plug. Or maybe an...

Ok, I got a 4 point speeding ticket the other day, and I know that when I go to reduce the ticket, the prosecutor will ammend it to either a reduced 2-point speeding/careless driving ticket OR a 0 point "unsafe driving" ticket. I currently have 0 points on my license, and I havent gotten any...

My co-worker wants to sell me a pair of MT Slicks (28 x 9 x 15) for only $100 that only had i pass on them. Will these fit nicely mounted on the stock T-type rims in the back? Will they stick out too much or fit in the wheel well nicely?? :confused:I plan on lowering the car, so if it sticks...

Ok, when I put the slider to Hot on my car, cold air blows out. I checked the water valve (which I had replaced with a new GM one a few years ago), and the plunger definitely works when the slider is moved from Hot to Cold and vise versa. I checked the hose from the valve to the heater core...

I am wondering who has experience with the Sony Bloggie Touch HD vs. Flip Mino HD vs. Flip Ultra HD mini camcorders? Ive been seeing mixed reviews about all three, and was just wondering which one takes the best quality movies? Im leaning towards the Flip Mino (due to its small size) vs the...

Anyone ever try these "energy drinks"? One can is supposedly equal to a six-pack of beer, mixed with caffeine, and comes in 10 flavors..I think some areas its banned too??:confused: Only $2.50 a can too..
