I have this light under the hood of both of my 98 Chevy trucks. Works very well.

With as many components that are on that ECM circuit, you need to look at the wiring diagrams and see if you can break the circuit down into more manageable pieces. See what connectors you can disconnect to try and narrow things down.

I would rather fix a harness than replace one. I had a rodent get into the engine compartment of my 2014 Mustang GT about five years ago and chew the wires off at the connectors of both of my passenger side VVT solenoids and chewed the wires in half going to one of my AC pressure sensors. I...

Years ago, I saw a Jeep Wrangler that was experiencing the death wobble as it drove down the road. It was wild to watch. A friend of mine had it happen to his then fairly new 2017 Ford F350. They replaced the stabilizing shock which fixed it.

Changed the sub-transmission fluid on my fiancé's 2023 Honda Talon side by side and flushed the brakes on her 2005 Honda Rancher ATV. I also flushed the brakes on my 2014 Honda Rancher ATV.

Yes, both of my 92 Cavaliers have rust. My 98 Chevy K1500 truck that I bought new is starting to have some bubbles form on the driver's side cab corner and the 98 Chevy K3500 truck is starting to have rust form along the bottom of the doors. My 70 Monte Carlo had rust years ago, but I had the...

I use either heat shrink butt connectors or the bare connectors with the marine grade heat shrink. You will need a heat gun or small torch for either of these options as well as a good crimping tool.

I would torque the bolts to factory specs and use some blue locktite if it makes you feel better. I use Superlube o-ring lubricant on o-rings so that they go in easier and smoother and so they don't roll during the install...

I have been using the orange Permatex ceramic extreme but earlier in the year the caliper on my daughter's 2010 Chevy Cobalt had supposedly locked up and this is the stuff that I used last on her car on the slide pins and on the parts of the caliper that contacts the back of the pads. I did...

Since you have already flushed the entire system with new fluid, I would just install your modified cap and hook up a vacuum pump to it. What you really need is to have something like the Mityvac vacuum pump kit that comes with the reservoir bottle which you will need to install inline from...

I have used the Mityvac MVA670 kit to bleed several power steering systems with good results.

As others have said, clear the codes and see what comes back. Then attack the code that seems to point to the main problem first and then go from there. Fixing one code may fix others. Some of those codes could be from a low battery or unhooking sensors and components with the key on.

One of my 92 Cavaliers has a salvage title and in the 20 years that I've owned it, I have never had a problem getting it insured except for one weird situation. Funny thing is that at one time I had Hartford as my insurance. I'm also an AARP member and they offer reduced car insurance...

I had that situation years ago on my 98 Chevy K3500. I could not get it out for anything, even with heat and a breaker bar. I ended up taking it to an exhaust shop. They ruined the threads of the bung and had to weld in a new one.

I'm a DIY'er who learned how to do Auto AC work back in 2006. A friend of mine had given me a 92 Chevy Cavalier with a blown engine. I had another friend install a junkyard engine in it to get it running. The AC of course didn't work. Right after this car was done, someone local was selling...

I can see it. I use some stuff called Big Blu which works better than soap and water. It is kind of expensive, but I like it...

Someone gave me an almost empty nitrogen bottle a couple of years ago and I used the rest of it to test an AC system for leaks. I found a local company to do an exchange for my empty bottle for a full one of theirs. The bottles have expiration dates on them and they test them to see if they...

That looks like a nice setup. Too bad I didn't see that one during the prime day sale. Is that the 53010-AUT version?

When I replaced the stock stamped steel rear diff cover on my 2014 Mustang GT with the aluminum finned one, I used a Lube Locker gasket in place of the factory RTV and it's never leaked in almost 13 years. I prefer actual gaskets to RTV and will use one if available. I have used a small amount...

Nice car. I had a 71 El Camino years ago. It had a 350 with the 2-barrel carb. I had more people want to buy that car than any other vehicle I have owned. It wasn't in the best shape either with a crunched right rear quarter panel and rust in various places. I ended up trading it to my...
