I don't know which size I should use for repairing the stripped threading for my Foreman head cover bolt. I don't live near any NAPA or any other repair shops to show the bolt and ask which kit I should get. Thanks.

It seems as though people think that semi trucks are able to stop so quickly. There are people on this site seem to think that it is so easy to drive a semi. I would like to no just how many of these people have experience behind the wheel of a semi? And What would they do if all Truck drivers went on strike? Yes I no that would not happen, but come on give these guys a break. Don't pull out in front of them because you think you can get past them so quickly, or stop quickly right in front of them. They are carrying a lot of weight AND YES they cannot stop on a dime.

When resetting the valve clearance for my TRX 450 FM, one of the four head cover bolts thread stripped while tightening it and now some oil is leaking from the head. Is there any way to tighten and keep it tight without stripping it more or going thru the drill and tap route? Thanks

The belt is not twisted, but somehow the latchplate tongue is turned the wrong way and it is impossible(for me anyway) to turn it around the right way. How does this happen and how do you fix it?? It is really strange.

this is driving me insane. i can't go far distances in this damned 1989 chevy suburban. the tranny drips fluid at normal capacity, city driving. on high loads, like hills and freeway speed, it just dumps fluid. i need to travel to sacremento from south lake tahoe, and, i cant! the pan is not warped, i glued that mother shut with avaition gasket and a gasket, and did the correct torque specs in the star pattern. the leak could be coming from the steel cooler lines, but i would think they would be sopping wet from, all the fluid its been dumping.i could swear that it was coming from the pan. the vacuum modulater looks to be the culprit, but i just pulled it, and it still has a nice o-ring on there (i just replaced the mod 2 weeks ago). that big plastic line might be it too, but i dont have an idea how to check/pull that piece out... any input on the situation?anything would just be awesome. im willing to try almost anything short of replacing the tranny. thanks.

I just broke down-
I was speeding up and I had to hit the breaks suddenly because a car pulled up in front of me. When I slowed down, the RPM's stayed high and the car (under the hood) was being really loud. I went home because I was afraid to stop it and when I got home and turned it off, it stalled. I can turn it on again but when I put it into gear, it stalls. Does this mean my transmission is messed up? Is that expensive? Do you think I will have to get a whole new one or maybe it can be repaired? Do you suggest I go to a Chrysler Dealership or a repair shop? Please help! Thank you

When driving a stick car, when needed to brake (slightly) do you need to press the clutch all the way down ? And at what point, will the engine stalled?

thanks
