No one mentioned VRP? Seems like the ultimate test!!! Probably not the right weight of oil. Cool story here.

Update I’ve replaced the spark plugs, which brought no change. While doing the plugs, I searched for vacuum leaks and found none. I also checked all electrical connects. Nothing changed and no codes have popped up. I was wondering about injector problems, so I’ve run 3 tanks of E85 through it...

I’m 6’1” tall. Little trucks like that don’t work for me at all! Not to mention how obese Americans are these days. We just don’t fit. Then throw in all the airbags needed in a modern vehicle. You’ve just added 6 more inches of width. All of the computers for the engine management system and...

We have a 2104 Town and Country that has 130,000 miles and is rapidly starting to break, mostly electronic stuff, and it has an engine idle vibration that I cannot figure out at all. I’m putting $0 into this thing other than oil changes and emergencies from here on. I’m pre-shopping now...

I'm not sure on the 24 Sentra, but I am a huge fan of Nissan cars, including the CVT. I don't own one currently, as I don't need a commuter car, but I would buy Nissan again tomorrow if I had to.

Makes you wonder if Ford made a bad choice to stop building cars.

I have a 3.5L NA engine in a 2017 F150. It’s a company vehicle that has to go by a particular maintenance schedule. The engine oil is required to go 7500 miles between changes. I’ve been driving this truck just over a year and it has 96,000 miles on it. My boss had it before me and it was...

I don’t find it to be all that aggressive in my Wrangler either, though I only use it when I forget to turn it off or my wife drives it. My main issue is that it doesn’t allow a full engine warm up before beginning to do the stop/start cycle.

My only issue with used cars now is how people don’t take care of them very well anymore. It’s tough out there to find a good used one.

My daughter, who is trying to save for her half of the college bill, started working there 2 months ago. They don’t have a timeline yet for closure.

My small engines have 0 problems sitting all winter with E10, though I do add Seafoam to my gas. My Rogue has had the same tank of fuel for 6 months and has no problems now either. I drove it last night and it fired right up and ran smoothly, no problem. There is no fuel problem a good tank...

As someone who works in Ag and has seen good and terrible maintenance of fleet trucks, I can say with confidence, don’t over think it. Just drive. I used to think we need to pamper our cars and never start them unless they can be fully warmed up. That went out the window when I saw abused...

The new Bronco is a cool rig. I'm a Jeep guy, but would buy a Bronco if I suddenly found myself unhappy with my Jeep.

The pulsating lights made me think there was a ground issue, or the alternator was failing. The lights stop pulsating when above 1000 RPM, like during a cold start. No codes definitely has be baffled for a coil or spark plug issue. I am planning on getting rid of the van next year, so we may...

Thanks for all the replies The other 3 spark plugs can only be accessed by removing the intake. I should have changed the plugs when I did the oil cooler last August and had the intake off. I put the same Champions in that the van had from the factory. It may be spark plug time, which is where...

2014 Chrysler Town and Country with the 3.6L and 128,000 miles. It was pulsating while doing gentle rolling in line leaving a parking lot and when idling at stop lights, or in park. It eventually got to where I felt it at highway speeds, so I changed the engine mounts with Anchor mounts, which...

How does E10 gum up injectors? Many injector cleaning agents have ethanol as an ingredient. If I need to do a fuels system clean out, I run a tank of E85.

I worked at Farm and Fleet in the tire and exhaust shop as I was putting myself through college. One day I climbed into an old station wagon and almost immediately vomited. It was a guys fishing car and he never cleaned it out. Some people are not right….

Usually it’s a musician that is scruffy looking and the dealer won’t give him the time of day. So, he buys a Barracuda instead of a Camaro.
