What is likely the issue if a still fairly new Honda push mower needs starter fluid? I use ethanol free fuel and it runs smoothly afterward.

This Jeep was parked for almost a year because of an illness in the family. When we finally got it back on the road, it pulled hard to the right when braking, and the left front wheel would barely spin freely while off the ground, leading us to believe the caliper has seized. After compressing...

I recently took our LeSabre to get an alignment (they do all four wheels) and could only get the front two completed. They charged me half the price which was nice but the mechanic stated that because the bushings are shot in the rear control arms...which is causing a noticeable misalignment...

I've never used a tap and die before so I'm looking at this set and after watching a couple videos, I'm concerned that the tool the dies sit in is too long to turn because the other studs will be in the way. Will it work somehow or do you recommend something else? I'm hoping to get one locally...

1) I want to replace the thermostat so what's the recommended way to drain the coolant prior? Not going to flush by the way 2) Would you recommend a certain coolant?

This 10mm hex bolt is on a 1995 Lexus so I'd imagine it's been there for many years. I've sprayed it with penetrating fluid and I'm wondering what else to try. More time for the fluid to work? It's only been an hour? And what after that if that doesn't seem to work? Obviously, the last thing I...

This only happens when for a short period of time for the first handful of miles once the car is running after sitting overnight or longer. Once it has run for a bit, the issue completely disappears. It has 207k miles and I'll also add that the fluid is not low but it's very dark and likely has...

I just thought of something that "may" have caused this and wanted some feedback...part of the dashboard just under the window has separated (I guess from years of sun)...yesterday, I was pushing on it, trying to reseat it. Thinking back, I believe it was shortly after that I noticed the ports...

We have a 2003 LeSabre and last year replaced both the condenser and a/c manifold because of leaks. I drove to my mechanic this morning (who I only use for bigger jobs) and using the uv light, he noticed leaks at the compressor. He suggested replacing the entire compressor but I'm wondering if I...

I've confirmed the wiring to the reverse lights is fine. The problem is that the supplied rearview plug connector will not seemingly stay far enough down in the jack to work. The rear camera only comes on when you push the plug into the jack and hold it. Any suggestions?

This mower started with the first crank each time last Summer. At the end of the season we ran it until it was emptied of fuel and stored it in our shed. Filled it with fuel this week and now it won't start. What should we try?

I've hit them with pb blaster and I'm extremely worried they're going to round further. Pretty sure they're the original from 2003 so I guess not surprising they don't want to come off. What should I do?? This is the video I'm using for the LeSabre

Need it for a 2003 LeSabre. We have Advance Auto, O'Reilly, and Autozone here in town. Which one would you buy? Also, standard or premium and why?

I have posted on other forums, made calls to Autel, local locksmiths and even the local Batteries Plus. Autel of course wants to sell me their $3000 programmer, the locksmiths won't tell me anything about the process and the guys at Batteries Plus are like 'well, if you bring in your own fob...

I also used the new diaphragm and gasket that came with the carburetor. The mower started without problem before replacing these parts, but the carb was original and filthy and when I removed it, the manifold cracked, so I of course replaced that as well. The engine is almost identical to this...

The coolant has been slowly leaking for a while and today (maybe since it's gotten warmer), our 2003 Buick LeSabre started to overheat and there was hissing and steam coming from the radiator. I assume you're going to tell me that it needs to be replaced so can you recommend a nice guide to...

I'm now driving a relative's 2001 Taurus and they cannot recall when the drums were ever serviced. This vehicle now has 170k and I'm going to get in there the next warm day we have to replace what's needed. I recently replaced the front with Raybestos pads yet it still doesn't feel right when...

A few days ago, our 2003 LeSabre threw off the serpentine belt because the water pump/pulley was rattling and spinning unevenly. Fortunately, this happened a block away from an Advance Auto so we were able to get it to their parking lot. I bought a new water pump and installed it without...

I have a 2001 Flex Fuel Taurus and replaced both of these parts recently...the sensor was replaced because the fuel reading was wildly erratic (and that it now fixed). A residual issue, however, is that the low fuel light doesn't appear when low. The bulb IS fine because I see it when the key...
