Cars & Transportation - 2 October 2006

i just got a 1999 suzuki rm250(im the third owner) and got it from the last owner for free, slips and all, but the motor might be siezed. what would be the easiest way to tell? when you try to kick it, the kicker dosnt budge, like there is a bolt stuck in the motor somewhere. also, if i were to put it in first, and go about 15(getting pulled by a car) the tire just locks up. also, i was going over the bike today, and it seems like there was pure gas in the tank(its a 2 stroke) tho the guy says that he knows for sure he mixed it. he changed all the fluids, im a little suspicious about the level in the tranny, but i doubt that would be it(that would just mess with the clutch). everything else on the bike is cherry, it just wont turn over, and i dont feel like pulling off the top end to find out( gaskets and whatnot....IM BROKE!!)

It's a 93 Topaz. It also pulls to the right when I let go of the steering. Was told it needs a front-end alignment. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

i have a 1988 honda accord 4dr dx. i went to autozone today because battery light was on in car. it has been on for three days whenever i drove. i bought a new battery to only find out my alternator has gone bad. the guy gave it like two or three days. i had a system installed in my car 4 months ago and havent had any problems till now. It was the orignal alternator in the car i think 65 amps. in my car i have 2 12" acoustik subs i think 1200 watts each with a kenwood 1800 amp. 4 6.5 infinity speakers. it was installed at bestbuy. i have hardly any money right now , it sucks. i went to a auto shop and they estimated 100 bucks to install the new alternator, i just now need to buy one. it is kind of hard finding one for my year, i did find a refurbished one on ebay with 165 amps for like 180 dollars. is that a good deal, do you know where i can get one for a better price? what should i do. i really dont know a lot about spekers and stuff accept i know i like the sound.

I heard that they were coming out with a Camaro convex car, but I want one that you can buy. I have one myself from 1968. And I'm still trying to find it's original owner. But anywho, I want a Camaro that's modern, but I love my 1968 model to death! So I know I would love a modern one!

I run a 2002 Altima V6 3.5SE. I seem to have some engines problems since the last few weeks. First off, the ABS, Slip and Traction off lights used to come on sporadically when I applied the brakes. Sometimes they stayed on until the engine was shut off. Sometime, the slip light is coming and the engine seems to have a misfire (?). Also, the car seemed harder on gaz. My dealer doesn't seems to know what is going on. I've changed the 6 ignition coils, with the spark plugs and noticed that one coil was sitting in the oil. So, I've also changed the valve cover gasket and the valve cover itself. Everything when well for a few days but now the slip light is coming on and off, in no particular partern. The ABS and traction off lights seems to have been corrected. The engine seems to misfire again. Would you have any ideas? Thanks,

OK. I was told to clean out the line from the condensor to the evaporator. I know there is a line below the accumulator, but where is the top part of the line that goes into the condensor that I need to blow the air into in order to clean this line out? I am replacing the accumulator as well, but I was told that this line needed to be cleaned out, and the orifice tube changed or else it would stop blowing cold after a few days. Please help!
