Does anyone know where to find the estimated axle temperature of a Ford F350 Superduty truck?

I want to use a roll on Rustoleum paint, but it says not to use on surfaces that reach 200 degrees farenheit.

People say it's safer to buy a bright color like orange, red, or yellow, so you are more visible to stupid people in cars that don't pay attention to the road.

There are three grades of gasoline such as regular,supreme, and extrasupreme which has been proven to be practically the same. Just like in fashions there name brands that sell because of the name or what ever extra additive is supposed to be in the gasoline. However, it has been recently that all of those different brands of gasoline are about the same anyway. Is this another way the gas companies are ripping the american people? Is there something the people can do about it?

I have been driving an 1989 z28 camaro for 3 years & it's not at all practical for someone like me. It was garage kept its entire life until I started driving it & now it's starting to show signs of wear in the Florida sun. Since it's my parent's car, it's time for me to purchase my own so we can preserve this one while it's still in excellent condition. With that said, I would like some ideas you might think would be a suitable vehicle for someone like me.
I'm 19, female, I would like a 2-door, no more than 6 cylinders, new/used doesn't matter, NO HYUNDAIS/KIAS, under $20K, nothing fancy. My driving usually pertains to/from my 9-5 job and to the beach on the weekends. I want something that has a very smooth, quite ride. I also like SUV's but cannot find many under $20k. What would you suggest?

What would cause my 2004 Chevrolet Classic (I believe it is a car made for rental car companies (etc.) and is very similar, if not identical, to the 2003 Chevrolet Malibu) with 64,000 miles (mostly highway) to shake like crazy while braking at highway speeds. I had this problem with my 02 Cavalier and balancing/rotating the tires corrected the shake. So, I had the tires balanced/rotated on this one. I purchased the car in 2004 with 28,000 miles on it and have not changed the brake pads or rotors, if that helps. I've seen that as a possible answer, but wondered what else it could be or if anyone has had the same problem with the same vehicle. Is this something that needs taken care of right away? Money is tight right now and if I can get by (SAFELY) with putting it off, I'd like to. Any suggestions or answers would be MUCH appreciated! Thank you!

the bottle is 32oz.
The only instructors it says is:

Cetane Boost 32 oz. Treats
3 Numbers.................100 gallons
6 Numbers...................50 gallons

What is the difference between 3 and 6 numbers? My tank is 22 gallons. So I should bring it to almost empty, and then put how much of this stuff in before I fill the tank?


My car also had this weird problem of the engine turning off when idle (radio stayed on). A guy suggested to me could be water deposits in the fuel tank. I got this cheap stuff called "Heet, gas-line antifreeze & water remover". The guy told me to put the bottle in the tnak before I fill it up for the next two fill-ups.

On the back it says 'do not use with 2-cycvle gas or diesel engines, use Iso-HEET instead" - what is 2-cycle?

my car 1991 mercedes 350 sdl.

Thanks appreciate any help_)

Does anyone have actual experience with a company which claims it will give you a free car if you are willing to drive a car which is pasted with their ad? I recently saw an ad for AdCarDrive.com which claims you can get a such a car. There is a fee of $39.95 to sign up, which does not mean you get the car, although they also claim to have a money back guarantee. I want answers of actual experience, not speculation, thank you.

When I drive I hear a low rubbing sound within the car that sounds as if it is coming from a wheel. Some people have said it was a wheel bearing going bad because if I change lanes the tone of the rub will change too. I suspect it is a locked up brake caliper. Twice when I took it out of park and put the transmission in reverse, the car seemed to be locked up and then I heard a popping sound like the caliper just broke free. I am wondering if a bad wheel bearing would cause the wheel to lock up and make the same popping sound?? Any clues or advise as to how to determine which is bad?
