When I bought my 2000 sl1 the previous owner had the bcm replaced with a used unit. So it had a mismatch code for the air bag system and the mileage was wrong. I thought I’d try to reprogram them using GM’s tech line tech 2 software. So i did just that. It didn’t fix my issue and now I get a...

I ended up replacing the regulator and it works now. I got a bad master pro regulator out of the box. I did scuff the paint off with a sand disc on my angle die grinder

My 91 d150 5.2 has an integrated ecm controlled voltage regulator. It is failing. So I figured I’ll install a voltage regulator externally and by pass that ecm garbage. So I cut the green wire which is ecm to alternator and took the blue ignition wire wired it to the voltage regulator and to the...

Is there a decent way to test the senders or just replace them and see what happens?

I bought a 1991 ram 1500 318 3speed. The speedometer, odometer, coolant temp and oil pressure gauge aren't working. I haven't had much experience with these systems on these trucks but would like to get the gauges working. Where would you start?

I have about 250 miles on my 2025 GLI. Should I change the oil now or wait until I get back from Bristol TN which will put me at about 1500 miles on the odometer. What's the best way to go about it?

2025 GLI 2.0TSI EA888 engine. Brand new out of the box it calls for a 0W20. I know thos same engine in previous years used a 5W40. This car will be stage 1 tuned. Would you run a 0W20 assuming the warranty is out of the picture? Or would you opt for a thicker grade of oil? Also brand? Liqui...

Who pissed in your Cheerios? I answered the question clearly since not every state does titles the same way. Seems stupid to give the option to buy it back if you cannot in fact do that. They offer it like you can pocket the cash or fix it yourself. Which I was going to do. I didn't realize you...

My insurance policy doesn't mention the lien holder at all anywhere.

The lien holder is listed as a lien holder on the title but not as an owner.

The lien holder agreed to let me buy it back and fix it but the insurance still insists they must pay the lien holder first. That's what I do not understand.

We have a little car that still has a note on it. The damage isn't that bad but of course monetarily it's totaled. I told the insurance I want to buy it back and fix it myself. They are saying since there is a loan on it that the money paid out must go to the lien holder before me. Does that...

Has anyone dealt with such a code. The cars runs ok but the dpf light is on. I tried to force a regen but the temp sensor downstream of the DPF won’t go above 91 Celsius in order to do a forced regen it requires to hit 120 Celsius. I haven’t found a good diagnostic flow chart either. Soot mass...

Going from this to a 6-50R just need to figure out where the wires go in the 6-50r

So if I was going to stick with this receptacle how would I go about dealing with the neutral ?

This is the compressor and the cord. My plan was to wire this cord to the compressor and plug it in. Obviously I want to make sure it’s safe. The compressor is a 3.7hp

I am wiring a cord so it can be plugged in. Here is the outlet. I don’t have a picture of the cord currently but it’s a 3 prong range cord.

I have to wire a cord to an air compressor and I’m probably overthinking it. The cord isn’t colored it’s just a solid gray cord. The instructions list the cord as each outside wire is hot and middle is neutral. The air compressor has a black hot a white hot and a green ground. I’m a little...

Hey everyone a local oil distributor sells pinnacle oil I was curious if you guys knew anything about that brand? Just looking to learn about the company and if it’s a decent brand. Thanks everyone!

Hey everyone I am curious as to what is the best way to plumb a shop for a shop size 220v air compressor. I’ve used black iron in other buildings but is that the best option or is there better options? I am thinking I will have the air compressor against the back right of the building and run...
