Cars & Transportation - 7 August 2006

My mechanic says this is common on Isuzu Troopers from the '97 era. I had a terrible noise. Thought it was the water pump, but then realized the noise wasn't coming from there. Couldn't really localize the sound, but thought maybe the timing belt was coming apart or something.
And ideas?

New part preferred. Live in Queens, NYC, but I'd order over the world wideweb if no choice. Ford said new part is obsolete. Lee Myles can't complete their own rebuilding job, and linkage is really faulty without a good shifter cable and hardware to hold linkage steady. Oft times, car does not get into reverse or drive because of this.

I just heard that an alaskin oil field is shutting down and could reduce barrles of oil to the US by like 400 000 barrels. Does this mean gas will be 4 to 5 dollars a gallon.

I've heard of twin turbochargers, but have never heard of a car or vehicle with both a tubrocharger and a supercharger.

Can this be done?

I had a laps in insurence and needed a vehicle inspection to get full coverage put back on the car. In order to get collision I had to get a vehicle inspection. (this insurence stuff come's in to play in a minute) So I'm heading south on I-75 around exit 170, just coming down the bridge, and I hear the sound the anti-lock breaks make and see at the same time the traction control light flash, telling you the system has activated. Now at that point in time it had just got done raining, pretty heavily, and the roads were still wet; though there was no standing water, especially cause I was on the downslope of the bridge. I wasn't changeing speed or direction and I had my cruse controle set at 70 mph. When the system activated it caused my back end to swing to the left (somehow I avoided hitting other cars) then I tried correcting and I swong the other way into the bridge guardrail. Mazda says I have to go to through geico, and gieco says they won't cause I don't have collision.
