I just purchased a parts vehicle for my 2000 Durango R/T. The parts vehicle has Cooper 265/75/17 tires. About 6,000 miles ago I bought a set of Continental 265/75/17 tires. Both have similar mileage, both have similar street treads. I'm going to sell one set. I was wondering if there was any...
Thanks ALL Battery is brand new. I left a battery terminal loose enough to remove by hand. Van started right up. but pull the terminal off of the post and it dies instantly.. Repeated that twice.
Trying to help my neighbor out. He has an '03 Ford Windstar that won't charge. I helped him replace the alternator to no avail, still not charging . I checked the parts stores on-line and didn't seem to find a separate voltage regulator Some listings showed a regulator, but I wasn't convinced it...
Hi All, need some help. My '04 Buick LeSabre started idling very rough after running only a few minutes. Once it is running at operating temperature, it seems to run fine. Average fuel mileage is down a couple of MPG from 18 to 16 city. Having the code(s) read two numbers came up: P0171 and...
Many years ago, I bought a new '86 GMC 3/4 ton pickup It was made for leaded gas, while the 1/2 tons of the same year had to use unleaded. Back then' stations were using leaded as a price leader as fewer and fewer vehicles could use it.It was a great deal to get cheap gas. Later when leaded...
Thanks for the info!! I agree from a mile perspective on the trans fluid, but it has been in there almost 14 years. Pulling the stick, it shows a dark red.
I recently bought a '04 Buick LeSabre with 82K. I am having a problem where when the car is cold, it doesn't want to engage in any gear, forward or reverse. Let it warm up and it seems OK. There are no CEL codes indicated I have seen this problem mentioned in other GM's with this transmission. I...
I'll dissent here a bit I recently used the BG EPR and MOA on my 190K mile Durango R/T 5.9. I was burning about 1qt every 1,000 miles. After the treatment, the oil consumption was cut in half, about 1qt every 2,000 miles. I could feel a small increase in power and decrease in fuel consumption...
Thanks Everyone! I know when +4 came out it was mostly for the FWD cars. I had replaced numerous transmissions in older LH series vehicles. I had no experience with the 727 based transmissions. In the "old days" we used Type "F" in those for firmer shifting, but I absolutely want to stay with...
Rebuilding a 46 RE transmission for my Dodge truck. I understand the ATF +4 is recommended for these transmissions as well as the FWD units. I'm going to be towing with this truck and wondering if there is anything more suitable that is readily available at a reasonable price IE: not AMSOIL
