Take the IAC valve off, than start the engine. If it stays running without extra throttle than you have a bad IAC. The idle will be really high without it on there too.

Sure sounds to me like an oversize load move; that's why you encounter them at night and traveling in a convoy. It may not appear to be very wide or tall, but it could be extremely long. The caution vehicles are called pilot cars. They serve to spot hazards for the truck drivers and stop...

If the vehicle has any large openings in the rims, you can feed a strap through there and around the tire. The best part about doing it this way is you don't have to dig much. Convenient enough on a FWD vehicle you can have your tow vehicle pull on a wheel at the back while you spin at the front.

Aside from reducing start-up wear, coolant heaters of all sorts prevent coolant leaks under the extreme contraction of cold ambient temperatures. I have had many a leaky coolant system on an engine left to the outside elements. Sometimes once they start leaking, they don't stop even after warmed...

You've got a darn good head on your shoulders, awesome work.

For myself: - 5g of creatine monohydrate per day; taken after working out or before bed. - Krill oil, two 500mg tablets daily; one before bedtime and one with breakfast. - 10g of BCAA powder, taken only before working out. - Multivitamins, 1 tablet per day taken before bed. I don't use whey...

This is a no brainer, forget about that raise offer and move onto the dealership job. It's a better opportunity further on down the road. Your bosses comment about young guys being stupid would have prompted me take a two week vacation, after all I'd want to be well rested before I start a new job.

I'd rather contend with a cold winter than a warm one. Warm winter weather brings constant freeze/thaw cycles that make for some icy roadways. Warm snaps also bring in the possibility of freezing rain, typically at night. I'd also rather contend with cold snow where there is grip, than slush...

Some of these black market weapons are first stolen from legal gun owners. Legal gun owners purchase firearms which meet the Canadian firearms restrictions. I am aware of how easy it is to turn a 3 round magazine into a 20 or 30 round magazine; that's why no-one should be possessing these things...

The firearm may have been legally purchased, in which it would be under the restrictions, than stolen and sold illegally. Maybe he even stole it himself.

I guess I'll be the one to point this out. Canada's strict gun laws are the reason this lunatic was armed with (to my knowledge) what was either a double barrel or single shot rifle. Had this been the United States, he would have been armed with a fully automatic. We are looking at this...

While it's a matter of personal perspective; I will certainly agree that the majority of new country is terrible. It appears to be geared towards a teenage to early twenties (largely female) audience. As far as I'm concerned there is no substitute for Alan Jackson, George strait, Randy Travis...

Is there not jacking instructions in the owners manual? On my pickup trucks I lift the front end by the frame, and rear end by the axle. I seat the jack as close to the leaf spring U-bolts as possible and I've never had a problem.

I can remember 9/11 and the days after, I was a teenager in junior high. After the news of Al-Qaeda involvement hit the news, many of the Muslim kids in school where ecstatic. I would listen to them cheering for the terrorists in classroom discussions. According to their own viewpoint, Al-Qaeda...

I could only imagine how long he or she has been driving on that spare tire too.

Aftermarket replacement headlights/bulbs are an epidemic here. If we want them off the roadways the only realistic solution is to ban them outright and fine the local vendors for selling them (JB's power centre). It is unrealistic to expect law enforcement, whom are outnumbered, to pursue every...

The quietest air compressors are oil lubricated with cast iron heads, typically. But like Chris said they're all loud.
