We have a 1985 Honda prelude with a rebuilt motor that only has 115000ks and the car has very little surface rust and lots of small parts. what do you think this car would be worth if I were to sell or I should say what should I ask for this car?

I am losing water,but here is no evidence of a leak anywhere. Would a broken head gasket be the cause?
any ideas as to where the water is going.

I believe my car battery is dead (I jumped my car, drove home from work, and tried to start my car at home again, and it died once again). I'm going to take it to a mechanic tomorrow....does anyone know how long it takes to put a battery in a car? Is there a chance it could be the alternater, and if so, how long would it take for a mechanic to do a quick diagnostics?

Just want to know if there's a chance I can make it to work.

NOTE: '99 Camry (so battery is 7ish years old). Thanks in advance!

It has began to run rough and difficult idling. the crazy thing about it does run well once in a while.
I suspect the carburator running to rich consequently fouling some spark plugs.
I need some advice as to what to do!

Ive noticed lately that old people must love to jaywalk on a red light. Do they care that a 2500 pound car has a high possibility of turning them into confetti? Do they think they can out-scoot the by crossing a 4 lane street? And I know signals have been around since 1868 (look it up if you dont believe me), so why would they believe red means go? I guess alzheimers CAN really kill you.

the check engine light comes on when going up hill or the motor is under any little strain, it is only getting 6 miles to the gallon, and it doesnt have near as much power as it did a couple of months ago. How can i fix it? and could it be the fuel pressure regulator?

I don't care what make or model; we're looking to buy a new car in a year or so and are just wondering what some of the cheapest ones are. Don't care about power windows or all that extra stuff; just want the cheapest thing out there with an automatic. We just kind of need to know what the lowest starting price is.

I'm looking for a high performance tire that will perform well in wet, dry and snowy conditions. I'd like one that holds the road when wet almost as good as when it's dry. I need good traction for takeoffs, but good cornering as well.

The car is a Z28 Camaro with Corvette wheels.

Could driving the car until it is real low on gas contribute to the transmission failure?

I have seen signs in some places on certain roads that say "No engine breaking."

I have no clue what this means, do you?
