Hi Folks I have a 1997 Rockwood Freedom 1620 popup camper. We were coming back from a camping trip and we had a tire blow out. We are fine, We were able to get off the hwy and change the wheel. The trouble is that the wheel well is torn up. It was rubbing on the new tire before we got it off the...

My daughter left a light on in her Prius which ran down the battery. She was able to jump start it and go to work. The battery is an Optima that I installed a few years ago. I open up the back to get to the battery and was shocked to see corrosion on the negative terminal. I thought this battery...

We now have five Toyotas. Four of them use the Toyota Pink Coolant. My 1993 Toyota uses the Toyota Red. Can I flush out the red and replace it with Toyota Pink? That way I only have to stock one type of antifreeze??? Is the Pink better that the Red?

I just bought a new 2019 Toyota Tacoma. It had only 50 miles on it. It's my wife's truck. My problem with it is that the radio reboots about every ten minutes. The issue seems to be with my wife's iPhone 10. She has to turn off the blue tooth and that solves the issue. We took it back to the...

2006 Toyota Sienna 160,000 miles. I bought new tires last year. Michelin 80,000 mile tires. The issue is the front tires wore out in less than a year. Discount tires would not rotate them. I had to buy two new tires. My question is: Do you think this is a Toyota Sienna van problem or do you...

I got some new spark plugs for my 2001 Saturn L100. They are Bosch Double Iridium 9617. Autozone, Orilly and Rock Auto says they will fix. I pull one of the old plugs and it is quite a bit shorter than the new plug. Do I have anything to worry about?????

My neighbor mistakenly put diesel fuel into a new Kubota riding lawn mower that would normally require gasoline. We drain the fuel tank and replaced the fuel filter. I shot starter fluid down the carb and it smoked the yard. It would not continue to run. The fuel filter did not look like it was...

I worked on my popup camper’s hubs this weekend. It’s a small popup camper with simple hubs (no built in brakes). It’s under 2000 pounds. I popped off the left side with no problem. The grease looked green/gray, old and smelled terrible. I did not remove the inner wheel bearing but I did clean...

1993 Toyota Corolla 150,000 miles on it. The daughter started having issues with it last week. When she came to a stop light, it started hesitating. She pulled over and called me. I came and the car was able to start right up no problems. I took it the next day to Auto Zone but they said they...

Well, here’s my problem. It’s a 2001 Saturn L 100 with 165,000 miles on it. I felt it had a small transmission leak. Now with these GM transmissions there are no drain plugs or dipstick. I bought a WIX - Transmission Filter Kit Part # 58611. I read that I might need a better gasket so I bought a...

I have a very small leak on my 2001 Saturn L 100. I thought about just changing the transmission filter and putting in high mileage transmission fluid. The leak may not be at the pan. I wish this car had a transmission where I could the level like the old but it is more like a manual...

I have a very small coolant leak in my Saturn. The Saturn is a 2001 L 100 four banger. It looks like it is leaking where the heater hose connects to the firewall. There is not a hose clamp but some type of odd push connector there. I looked at at Rock Auto but it does not had the connector. it...

I wonder if anyone has used this to keep their engine clean after clean/detailing it?

My brother is thinking of repainting his old beater truck. It's a 1998 Nissan Frontier. It's a 4 wheel drive and in rough shape. He uses it for deer hunting and small trips. I told him just to patch the rust and Rino line the whole thing. It would save a lot of labor instead of sanding...

I've had 4 managers in 5 years. Management is brutal. Now they are focus on me and my coworkers. It looks like they are lining us up to knock us down. I may have two to five months before I get the pink slip. I'm been working on reducing expenses. I will get rid of my disk network next week. Any...

Guys, I messed up. I was replacing my alternator and loosen the wrong bolt. The ac systems depressurize and scared the [censored] out of me. It’s a 1993 Toyota Corolla 1.8 Liter. Do I take it to the dealership to charge up? Is this something I can do by myself? Does the system have to be evacuated?

My daughter car has a hole in the gas tank. It is in the middle. I don’t know what cause the hole. It’s a little dribble. It is the 1993 Toyota Corolla. It has 80,000 miles on it. The dealership wants about seven hundred bucks to replace it. I don’t want to do that. What do you think. That’s...

Guys, I have a problem. My 2006 Sienna van sometime squeals when I start it up in the morning. It will squeal for a few minutes and go away when I race the engine. The squealing will also stop if I turn off the A/C switch. The van has 101,000 thousand miles on it. To get it fixed should I do it...

Well, I have been having problems with my 1993 Toyota Corolla Speedometer. It seems to be under reporting the speed. Sometimes it does not work at all. I’ve installed a new speed sensor ($155) this weekend and that did not fix the problem. It does not work at first and then after the car is...

I would hate to buy factory service manuals for each car. Do you use the web service AllData or something like it. I'm trying to fix my 1993 Toyota Corolla, The speedometer is not working right. Today as I was driving in, it was reading thirty miles per hour. I was keeping up with the flow of...
