I put in a new plug and no different. It seems to loose it's gas prime so to speak. It won't start unless I pour a little gas in the plug hole and then it starts right up but it will start running bad and quit after just a few minutes. I have a new gas filter and gas line installed, I tried...

New carb was from Amazon but the old carb did the same thing as the new one. I had already taken out the spark arrestor.

It stops like it ran out of gas.

It is a model BR420C Magnum. I already put on a new carb, air filter, fuel line, fuel filter, and I blew into the line that goes to the one way valve on top of the gas tank and it seems to be working. It also has new fuel/oil mix. I adjusted the new carb so it was running great till it quits...

I tried buckling the passenger belt and it did not change. I just have a regular code reader about 10 years old.

2007 Doge 1500 pickup Hemi with 167,000 miles- When I am the only one in the vehicle and nothing is on the passenger seat the buzzer goes off every 15 or 20 seconds. Got any idea how to fix this. Thanks!

Wife's friend has a 2013 Honda Pilot with 219,000 miles on it and she has not changed the trans fluid. She bought it used with about 150,000 on it with no service history. No trouble with it right now. My biggest concern is that that year Pilot has a non serviceable trans filter. Change it or...

2007 1500 Ram Hemi with 166,000 miles. Put on new strut spring combinations.

I have a 1998 Formula stern drive boat with a 106 gallon built in fuel tank. I bought it used a few years ago and the last owner had not used it in several years. The fuel tank would be almost impossible to remove. The problem is particles built up in the tank. Every year I go through quit a...

Another thing I forgot about. Our vehicle is a 2019 Honda Pilot. I usually get seven years or more out of a car battery. I charge them every month to make sure they stay in good shape even if I drive them often. This Honda is on it's third battery in four years. The original battery was...

I forgot to say that Honda just sent us two letters regarding the auto shut off. One that is extending our warranty for the starter system for several years. The other is for a software update.

I absolutely hate it. I wish I could take a hammer and pound the button that I have to use to shut it off (every time I drive)! A friend of mine said he would never buy a vehicle that automatically shuts off. Seems to me I have read that it uses more gas to start and stop an engine unless the...

2007 Dodge 1500 hemi, quadcab, 165,500 miles. Putting on new front strut/spring combos. Do I need to drive it a while to let the struts break in before alignment? Thanks!

2007 Dodge 1500 20" wheels Took lug nuts off. Got the front wheels/tires off but the back ones are stuck on. Pounded with a rubber mallet but no good. Got any ideas?? Thanks in advance

An independent shop tried to bleed the ABS controller, but they could not connect with either unit they had. A scan tool? Then the head tech. at Mazda said Mazda does not support the software to bleed the ABS for that year and model anymore. He said it should bleed itself during a normal brake...

2012 Mazda 5 with 156,000 miles. It is the sort of tiny mini van with a 2.5 L 4 cyl. and an automatic. It is in good condition otherwise. The brake pedal goes almost to the floor but then seems to stop normally. Then if reapplied quickly the pedal has slightly more pressure resistance when...

Be really careful if you use a pressure washer. I would not use one again after learning my lesson. My unit had some outside fins of the case that covered the real unit fins so I could not see that I was bending the fins themselves with my pressure washer. I tried several of the fine combs to...

I sold used cars for about six months years ago and not one single person ever opened the hood to look at anything or even check to see if anyone had ever changed the oil. I sold five or so a week so it was quite a few cars. I once looked at a used chevy coupe and when I opened the hood to...

My manual says DW1 fluid and the dealer says ATF 3.1. Dealer wanted $128 for ATF 3.1 fluid and a gasket. 4 quarts Went on line and two Genuine Honda parts sites say Honda ATF 3.1 is discontinued. Got any experiances or recomendations? Which fluid, ATF 3.1 or DW 1?

I can't seem to find one. The boat is a 27' Cobalt with an 8.1 L 420 HP Volvo sterndrive. It is about a 2002. Thanks for the help!
