I took my car into Pep Boys because I needed a simple brake job. After a couple days I decided to move my car somewhere else after a whole series of events that I'll spare getting into for the moment. Needless to say I felt they were being dishonest and giving me the run around. My car was running and drivable when I brought it in, but I had to have it TOWED somewhere else because the car wouldn't start and they tore up my break system in the rear.

My question is: is it possible to have the brake drum "fuse" with the brake shoe? I was told this happened by two guys at Pep Boys. When I called around to a few other places they said, "No, it's no possible because it's a moveable part connecting to a non-moveable part, so if it happened you wouldn't have been able to drive it to Pep Boys in the first place." Another person told me that they've only heard it happening on VW Bugs.

I have a 2003 Saturn, could this have happened to it?

i have a 1997 jeep wrangle se with a 4 cyl inline engine with manual transmission and whenever i start my car the engine makes kind of a thump and my shift (which is usually in neutral) goes from side to side rapidly and then when the engine is idling on its own without my key pressing the ignition it runs fine and works perfectly. but i am worried that something is wrong with my vehicle! i have looked up to the definition of spark knock as that is the only kind of negative condition that my manual says anyhting about that has to do with the engine i do not think it is that as mine only does it on start up and only for a split second (as when it turns over) i will put higher octane fuel in and im hoping that being a 4 cyl its doing that because it is off balance and turning over creates alot of vibration i just got this vehicle a few days ago and just want to know if this is notmal operation as none of my other 4 cyl cars do this. thankyou for any responces i hope nothing is wrong

Reason why i ask, my 1988 Chevy Silverado TBI 305 5.0 V8 "SOMETIMES" hesitates and or will shut off- after a stop or even while at freeway speeds. it STARTS right back up- without a problem.

I just spent $127.53 For a OBD1 diagnosis- Nothing found everthing is in order-PER Mechanic...But found a "clogged Fuel Filter". trouble seemed fixed until the next morning...
If i let off the accelerator, and "pump" it a couple times it seems to clear right up and drive strong.

I will get a second OBD 1 Diagnosis at a different Repair shop and see if he can find my Truck trouble.

If anyone out here has an idea or a opinion please tell me everthing i might check or do!

Complete tune-up 4 months ago, never had any trouble, NO leaks, This trouble just started last week...
Cat Converter has a broken weld/leak- nothing further "enitire Truck"

Thanks folks,

The gears ride on bearings, so they spin on the differential shaft. If the engine is off but the car is coasting, the differential shaft can turn inside the gears while the gears and the layshaft are motionless.(so the gears, if i am in the third gear for example , don't spin the layshaft and the engine? what means then that is a engine brake?) Could then the wheel to spin the engine? thks

I had my engine done before by a mechanic, but my engine went bad to worst. Now I plan to open it up, I am an eager man to learn and have tools and basic understanding of the engine. It is a 2E Toyota engine used as taxi cab.

The situation? I have coolant leak causing milky motor oil, as if I have low power, no smoke on the pipe, engine heats sometimes, do not consume oil, but air pressure is too much on the cylinderhead cover, and oil now squirts out of the dipstick.

Can somebody good enough help me do the work?
