Looking to buy a Dodge Ram 2500. My sweetheart has charged me with the duty of finding as many as I can. I don't know enough to do more than get in trouble. Will someone help me, please?

There is no decal under the hood, nor is there any related information in the owners manual.

When you pre-pay for your gas, the attendant sets the pump. Depending on the station the pumps seems to click off anywhere from 25-50 cents early, yet the numbers continue to roll to the amount paid. Are you still getting gas or ripped off for 25+ cents each time? Am I going to have to say I want more than I do, then have to go back in the station for my change each time?

The display on my 2000 Grand-am radio stopped working. The radio and cassette work fine. I replaced the radio but the display in the replacement also doesn't work...even though it was confirmed working prior to it being installed in my car.

Could there be a wiring issue with my car? Perhaps a fuse or relay or something? I doubt that the problem is with the radio itself.

Any help would be appreciated.

Good morning, I took flying lessons in a small Cessna and I am perplexed...the pilot told me to only look at my instruments because each time I looked away from the instruments I would be banking right when I should not or loosing altitude when I should be gaining...I can't tell my UP from my DOWN. When I went to land a horn sounded. I asked what is that now. the pilot laughed and said that is the stall warning. I froze and could not move and he made me land the plane...I feel that he was a good teacher and everyone has these experiences...What have been your experiences? Or should I just leave the flying to the professionals who are not scared s**tless.

Hi there,

I've just bought a Camper van and want to re-upholster the seats in fake leather. Does anyone have any tips or websites that I could look at to do this?

Cheers,

Mikey

I have a 1998 Subaru Forester S with 150,000 miles on it. The engine just died this weekend (blown head gasket apparently). According to the mechanic who looked at it (someone I don't know as this happened while I was away for the weekend), the engine has a lot of aluminum in it and so gets damaged easily if it overheats, which it did.

With this many miles on it, I'd probably just let the car go, rather than spend probably about $2K to replace the engine BUT I just put a bunch of money into it two months ago for a new fuel tank, sensors and lines, new rear struts and new pistons for the rear hatch. Plus four brand-new tires. So if I decide just to junk the car, that money is pretty much down the toilet.

Any opinions on whether or not it's worth replacing the engine? The body's in good shape and I had the clutch replaced a couple of years ago.

The dampeners have been changed and it still does it and it's getting worse. But when you turn off the engine for a few minutes it stops. Then when the car has warmed up again it starts again. The Lotus garage couldn't find anything.

The last time I drove my car was 3 days ago. The Check Engine light was never on and today it was. It still ran. I drove for maybe 3 miles. I brought my brother to school and back. Do you have any idea what I should look for that might help me save a trip to the mechanic? Thank you very much guys.

The clutch has to be engaghed to start it,is there some kind of ford way to bypass the clutch senser?? I've figured out my way to improvise, the last time I ran into a "bump start" situation, the old truck would start with or without the clutch engaghed.I even looked around for the manuel that came with the truck, but, no luck ( it basicly told you how to pump gas and empty the ashtray!! forcing people to go back to ford, useless )I 've got two days before the holiday is over and a client hands me a check......Is there a "official" bypass?? or do I, do my best attempt at jeririgging the sensor????? ThankYou so much for your time.
