Cars & Transportation - 22 March 2007

Tonight on my way home from work, I noticed that in my 1998 ford explorer, the 4WD and 4WDL lights would flash 4 times and then go out for about 2 minutes. They would then flash again. I didn't try putting it in 4 wheel drive because I know this means there is a problem of some sort. Anyone know what this means?

I had Advanced Autp parts check and see why my check engine light was on and the man said my catalytic covertor was stopping up. How will this effect my car??? I drive a 99 Grand Am??? Will it cause my car to not accelerate, because when i was going up a hill the car wouldnt "kick it" like it use to it was as if it stayed the same speed and kind of even slowed down.

I have tried everything aside from actually unplugging the battery and they won't go off. It's too late to go to a repair or parts store and the light will drain my battery if I wait until morning. Has anyone else had a similar problem before or does anyone know any way to fix it?

...as if your being somewhere is more important than someone's life? I see it everywhere I go, people slamming through a parking lot while on the cell phone or playing with the radio etc, etc, etc. It is not a perception issue either, there is absolutely no way they can stop or even swerve if another car, person, or child moves in front of them. What is it in their brain that says "this is a good idea" ?

In Connecticut, it is legal to take a right turn at a red light as long as there is no danger in doing so. Do other states have this law too?

I received my provisional licence recently, but I'm not sure if something is wrong. It is my first licence of course and I'm confused. The photocard looks all good, but I'm not sure the counterpart is.

The signature, address, and a bunch of other stuff is there, but the boxes like "Provisional Entitlement" where I think it should have category A (which is on my photocard), etc.,..but the box is completely empty, is that normal? All the other boxes are empty too, like endorsements, entitlement history, etc..but I guess those are supposed to be empty, but what about the "Provisional Entitlement"...why's it empty? Please help because I want to take my CBT motorcycle training soon and I must bring both the photocard and counterpart, and I'd hate to be turned down due to a document mistake.

i am wondering what percent of the time you execute what you feel is a picture perfect flight. i know that since you haven't killed anybody you're probably doing a good job, but i know that you can land a plane but still feel like you could have done it smoother. another sub-question... do you actually land the plane most of the times. i'm 14 and have a love of aviation. i watch videos online all day, play flight simulator, and i know this doesn't constitute anything, but i truly do love aviation. i have been looking and fortunately know someone who is a pilot and am annoying the hell out of him with questions.

thanks guys (and girls)
