    Need help with Dell Vostro 1000 Laptop

    Originally Posted By: lyle Does the lappy have an external monitor connector? If so, then plug a monitor into it, and if it stays lit when the laptop screen goes dark, then you know it's the LCD inverter. A friend once gave me his Toshiba for this exact problem. He had already bought another...

    Need help with Dell Vostro 1000 Laptop

    Good day all, I am trying to help my friend with his Dell Vostro 1000 laptop. The problem started about a week ago. While you are using the laptop, the screen will go black all of a sudden and will stay that way unless you shutdown Windows and then boot it again. I don't think the system is...

    1997 Camry 5SFE with valve cover off

    Good day all, I just changed my oil to start the rinse cycle of my 1st ever Auto-RX application. I'll be getting the Peak oil change special from Pepboys so I can use it for my 2nd ARX application. Can I start my 2nd application after I finish this 1st rinse cycle? And for the pictures...

    Air pockets in Cooling system

    Well I removed all the air from the cooling system and the heater is still not working properly for some reason. I know the coolant was brown in color before we changed the radiator and now it's brown again. I think a good flush is in order. Is there a way I can find out if the heater core is...

    Air pockets in Cooling system

    Thank you all. I don't think he purged the cooling system yet. These engines don't have a bleed valve but a small jiggle valve in the OEM thermostat for air to escape. He has an aftermarket Stant SuperStat installed. I will try to remove the air pockets myself. There is a good steep incline I...

    I usually never turn the wheel to full lock. Yes if I hit full lock I would back off a bit. It never did that noise with the old belt.

    ARX in P/S unit

    Hey all, Have a quick question about Auto-RX in the power steering. I have added about 1 ounce of ARX in my power steering to clean it up. It had the original fluid in it for about 173000 miles. Current fluid in there is Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF. Since I added ARX, my steering pump is squeaking...
