My Dodge is my baby. I've had this van for about 1 year now.

150,000 miles, 3.9 engine and purrs like a kitten all regular maintenance was kept up great. Nothing leaks, check engine light never comes on. Totally reliable

I have one problem that just started that i am not farmiliar with.

Van may start perfect 10 times straight. On the 11th start nothing, no power no click, no sound, nothing. If i hold the key in the start position or turn it a few times then it will start. Battery is fine, Altinator, belt & pulley have already been replaced about 6 months ago. check engine light is NOT on.

So what chould it be?

Im not sure whats wrong with it, the temperature gauge always stays on cold, once in a while it goes to normal, and sometimes it goes up to the red line. everytime for like 15 or 20 minutes, some of the water from the radiator goes to the plastic tank next to the radiator, its really hot, and it starts to vaporize, when i turn the car off, I could her the noise of the water boiling. is it a rediator problem or what should I do

i already cleaned out the radiator with the radiator flush thing.

soo i have wanted wanted a 1966 or 67 Ford mustang for a long time. and i need a car so my parents said they would give me about 2500 dollars towards one.

the only problem is my mom decided she doesnt want to pay for an unsafe car, and since mustangs dont have air bags or shoulder belts, and are old and break down easy, she is thinking about not giving me money for it.

how do i convince her it is a semi-safe car?? anyone have any safety reports or reasons a mustang is safe??

Gas prices are a joke, I am going to participate, who else will be joining the gas price protest? They say the last one reduced the gas prices by .30 cents. How long can people boycott, or reduce their fuel intake, to hurt the pocket books of the "Pinko, Commie, Bedwetting, Nazi, Gasoline Moguls?" The longer people can hold out, the more the prices should reduce? maybe.....

I had my brake system flushed when I had the front brakes of my '99 Chrysler Sebring Convertible replaced at Midas in the summer of 2005; the car was then at 81k miles. Approximately 7 months (and 5,000 miles) later, I had some work done at the Chrysler dealer and they said my brake fluid was filthy and needed to be replaced. I thought they were trying to rip me off, since I had just had that service done. Then today when I took my car to a reputable mechanic/service shop (not dealer-affiliated) for my somewhat overdue 90k service, they also told me my brake fluid was filthy and needed to be flushed.

I am planning on taking the car back to Midas to have them inspect and flush the system again if needed (hopefully for free), but am trying to figure out if there could be any other reason or problem with the car that would cause the brake fluid to get so dirty in such a relatively short period of time. Suggestions? Is there anything else I should be aware of??

THANKS!!

I have a '97 Cheverlot Lumina. The Engine Light came on. It was low on gas. The car died. The tank was filled, oil was changed. Light is still on. Car dies. Alot, it won't run for very long before dying. What is the next thing I can check for? Or should I just say screw it and take it to a mechanic because its not going to be the fluids or something simple...? Thanks in advance for your answers.
