I have a 2005 Ford Escape. I bought it used, but the vehicle had one owner who had it for 3 months & decided she didnt like it.
When I bought it, they went over it with a fine tooth comb..so they said.
4 days ago, I filled my gas tank up & now I have a ticking/tapping/clicking like sound that was not there before I put the gas in. Is it possible that I ended up getting bad gas? Or do you think it could be something more?
I have a little more then 1/2 a tank left, so do I wait until the gas is gone or should I have it looked at?

i have a 2004 chevy blazer, 2 not 4door, 4.3 Vortek V6, 2wheel drive, 40,000 miles on it. I'm getting bout 15highway,mpg, i should &filter every 3000miles or sooner, i clean&re-oil my K&N air filter every 6000miles, change my fuel filter every 12,000miles, i have no trans filter to replace. So what can i do to regain my lost economy? should i replace the gear oils in the standard trans, or the rear end, do i have to use syn. oils only, whats the darn problem? I'm even considering buying a dual electric fan kit to replace my belt driven fan, just to free up a few hp, but those kits are $200.00 or more, would anything like that even make any diff.? i came up with the idea cause i know the silverado with the same engine has bigger air intake hose, bigger exhaust and two electric fans not belt driven. Some one please, please tell me the best thing to do.

I just changed the oil, and checked the wear on my stepsons clutch plates, they all look good. However after reinstalation, I can manually get the bike to neutral when it's off, but not while running. I figure this has to be a clutch fine tuning thing. Any Suggestions?

We're making a movie and will drive the 5-man (actually, four men, one woman) crew to Hotlanta for the shoot. We'd like to know from any expert RV'ers out there in TV Land about how much we'd need to spend in gasoline from here to there (about a three-or-four-day trip in probably a rented RV from CruiseAmerica or some other RV rental place). And the size of the RV would be a pretty big one, I guess, if we're taking five peeps with us.

Oh, by the way, it would be about 6-8 days driving both ways, total.

When I press the lever to operate the screen wash on my car, nothing comes out. It is full, so thats not the problem. It is making a noise like it would normally, but nothing happens.

he has been trying to get a motorized wheelchair, but has been turned down by the VA. He has asked to move down here with me to a small town where everything is 4 blox away, and that would be great, but I want him to be able to get around better. Does anyone know of a golf cart, or the like, that he could use with button controls?

What upgrades can I do to Mitsubishi Lancer EVO to do 1/4 mile in under 13 seconds? I am talking about the 2006 one that has 286hp and does 1/4 mile in 13.5 stock. How can I shorten that time to at least 12.9. I hear that they are extremely moddable. Like exhaust system alone can boost around 25hp. I don't want to upgrade turbo though.I was think some simple upgrades just to make 12.9 second car.

My friend said it might be a clogged fuel filter.
