I have had water in my gas twice in the last month. I believe that condensation is forming from a leak in the fuel system somewhere. I know that some water was from a cheap fill that I did (the last cheap fill for a while). Now I am as picky as when I had my Eclipse (boost is even less...

First off I don't want to **** anyone here off, sorry if I do. Life is the most fragile and prescious thing we have. I know they could care less if we all got blasted to the stone age but will an armed occupation change the way they feel about us? We lost 9-11 the day it happened, that was a...

I have been trying to figure out which electric fans the H1 Hummers use, they seem very resistant to water. I have used minivan and Taurus fans before but they do not tollerate water crossings. As long as you stay out of water a lot of fans should work.

Thank you, I wish I knew that in 97.

I searched the forum but missed anything about replacing the front driveshaft on older XJ's. A friend at work wants to buy a 84 XJ that makes noise in 4wd. I had the same problem in high school and traced it to that "soup can" joint at the transfer case side of the front driveshaft. I just...

2wd is tough to find sometimes. I had rotten shift bushings causing mine to bind up. I got new ones from 4wheel parts for .50 cents each. After that and a thourough greasing things worked much better. If you have any plastic battery post caps you can trim the ends and get away with that for...

I was looking at Holley Carbs for a while but never found an exact part #. Summit has a great selection of smaller carbs, if you contact them they should have a suitable suggestion. I changed my mind and got a Motorcraft 2100 after reading about them here. I still need the adapter plate (Lots...

Oh yeah, be carefull opening the cans. One of my assistants used too much leverage with a screwdriver and sent the can flying (fortunately one of the quarts and not a gallon). It was one of those accidents where we didn't really say anything for a few seconds, in awe of the largest messes we...

Bedlined wheels sound great, very resistant to getting "peppered" by stones. Could you share some pictures?

I just did my tub in Herculiner about a month ago. It seems the prep work is the hardest next to staying clean. I did two coats about a day apart, one gallon can each coat. One can could do it but if you can spend a bit more the thick coat is great. I had to let it dry for three days since...
