I have an older boat that has no ladder on it. It is very difficult to get into even with a roap ladder. Can I purchase and install a ladder on the rear of the boat myself?

in the process of dismantling my car's engine, so as to change the piston rings and grind the valves etc, how do i clean all the hardened black crud from the inside of the cylinder head and the barrels? can't use anything too abrasive on alloy. what has worked for you?

ps i don't mean the sludgy stuff - this washes off with a de-greasant, but the hard, laquer-like deposits.

pps anyone familiar with rebuilding the 602cc flat-twin aircooled motor from the citroën 2CV?? any practical tips welcome.

I run a cab service w/my husband. We are locked into certain colors b/c of the rules of our state. The first car is a chevy w/ an aftermarket wide stripe. The stripe is a Ford color. We are working on running a Jeep. I have the base color's code, but not the stripe- Ford doesn't use it any more. I need the code to order the paint. Any info is appreciated. Thanks.

Question for people who really know. Prefferable a law student or lawyer...My sister gave me her car so that she could get one with cheaper payments and wouldent have to let it get repo'ed. I became unemployed and couldnt afford the insurance any longer. I had gotten into an accident. The accident was deemed my fault. There is a company that is now persuing medical and workers comp. from me. This company has already paid out to the other party but wants to get the money back from me. I have been told my only option is to either settle and pay or file bankruptcy. At this point in my life bankruptcy is my only option. Can this company legally then, after I file chapter 7, try to collect from my sister. Keep in mind that although she was the owner on paper I have been making car payments for several months. I was the one that was driving and got into the accident. My sister didnt know I was uninsured. Can they still take her to court and get a judgement or garnish her wages?

it doesnt seem to happen with modern cars, but mine does occasionally backfire, particularly after being switched off and restarted within a short time.
