Engine runs fine once it's up to speed. Doesn't like to start as the timing seems off and isn't firing correctly. I replaced the cap and rotor and now am wondering why I'm still having this problem. The cap moves a little but I was told this is normal. It is also running a little rough until the engine is hot. Spark plugs and wires are new too. Oil was just changed. Added Lucas transmission lube. Is there anything I can look at to diagnose before I take it to the shop?

I have a 96 Plymouth Voyager. The check engine light would stay on for days at a time and then turn off. This was because I needed to replace an o2 sensor. I replaced the sensor during a time when the check engine light was off. I was told that I would need to have a shop reset the computer, but do I need to do that if the light is off?

my permit expired on June 27, 2006 my birthday so is it necessary for me to renew the permit and then when I get my own car(cuz I dont like driving my mother's car) I can go for my license?

But I'm wondering if my permit has to be good, meaning not expired, for me to take the driving test to get my license?
Or can my permit be expired and when I'm ready to go for my license I can just take the driving test without having to take the test for my permit over?

(Do you understand what I'm trying to ask? I hope so.)

I already failed my written three times, and I didn't even pass my last behind the wheel one. I failed big time! I want to re-take the written test but now they have changed the allowed mistakes from 15 to 6 and the questions are sp tricky sometimes! What's the best way to study the handbook so that all the answers will be on the top of your head? And how can I stay confident when I am taking the behind the wheel one when the time is right again?

Its over $3.00/gallon in Atlanta GA. I think it might increase more in the summer. Not many people are completely affected by it because I do not see anyone in the office commuting or at least carpooling. Some of my coworkers say it will take the price increase to go up to at least $4.00 for them to actually start looking for alternate commuting. How much is too much?

I spoke to my salesman this morning about adding factory fit options and he told me that they started building the car this morning so he's not sure if it's too late. 2 hours later (about 3:30 factory time) he says they've completely finished for the day!

I am trying to hook up my JVC MP3 deck in my girlfriends Saturn Vue. After successfully connecting the new wire harness to the correct wires on the deck, I get no display, no radio function. All I can do is load/unload CD's, press the display button to make the deck light up, and that's it. It is getting power, obviously. I have the RCA's hooked up to the back, but they are not plugged into the amp yet. The factory ground is hooked up as well as the ground that is one of the wires. HELP HELP HELP!!!

I drained the water and got new plugs. It started right up, but the next time I took it out every time I gave it gas it just didn't want to go. The fastest it went was 10mph. so I was looking around and there was water in the exhaust. when I disconnected the pipes that connect to the exhaust it sounded fine. When I connected them it kind of bogged out. what could be the problem?
