I have a gasoline 1.5L Nissan sentra (FB15) 1999 model car. What is the normal fuel consumption for it? When I put A/C it consumes a lot. The indicator drops very fast. Normally how is the fuel consumption indicated(with or without A/C)?
Please help.
Thanks.

I usually buy a H4 headlight type bulb, but my aunt bought a 9004 headlight type bulb. Will it work or is there something that I should add to make it work?

there is legislation going through Europe at the moment that would limit all cars to 101 MPH.

If passed, it due to be law in 4 years time.

Thier reasoning being that high powered cars cause too much damage to the environment.

i agree they put out lots of CO2, but is it really significant compared to the millions of chav-tastic easyjet holidays in spain, or the M25 car park every day ?

Are supercar owners just being picked on because they are rich, or do you think reducing thier cars to 101 MPH would really improve the environment significantly ?

Remember, the majority of these cars are not used for communting. I wonder if the anual CO2 from an M25 rep-mobile is actually higher because of the milage covered.

Hello, I have a 1995 Jeep Cherokee country that will not stop dying. It never happens right after I start it up, but usually after 30 minutes or so of driving. It also happens within 10 minutes of filling up the tank. Sometimes, I can pop it into neutral, and restart while I am rolling. Usually, I have to pull over and wait anywhere from 5 to 90 minutes for it to start again. Lately, I have to wait longer, and it has been towed twice in the last 2 weeks. This has been happening for 14 months. You probably have some ideas of what may be causing this. Let me tell you what I have done.
I got a new fuel pump yesterday.
I got a new fuel filter last week.
I had new plugs, complete tune up, and a fuel system cleaning about six months ago.
None of these have made any difference.
I am writing this on my phone at 4 am, stranded on the side of the road because I have nothing else to do. I will send it to my home email and post it when I get home. I am so fed up with this, and I already lost a

I am looking to buy a new car, and having looked through all the magazine and visited the garages, there is not a singly car that stands out. All the new cars on the market today are so ordinary, they all look the same and dull.

I will now be sticking with my trusted old Civic for some time now. Anyone else out there not excited by new cars on the market?

I mean it does cause accidents and it is disrespectful and i think it is a way of provoking someone. I usually look at the person behind me and it's some soccer mom talking on her cell phone. My "friend" says that people do it because they probably have somewhere to go, but don't i have somwhere to go to? does that mean i need to deal with the a**hole behind me while im getting there just because im not in a hurry? and where are they going? because every time i get to where i'm going their never there. When I drive I like to look around, to the side at a tree or whatever, but it always seems that the person behind me dosen't respect that. It really bothers me and I want to beat the s**t out of them! how come people are brave like wolves in they're cars but when they get out of their cars they're like sheep?

OMG. I just bought this scraper for a good deal consideing its near mint condition inside and outside. I let this assshole "install a new stereo"he took out the original, and cutt a bunch of cables from the inside... When I started the Car I noticed the Digital Speedometer, and Digital Gas Meter werent displaying. AHHHRRRG! I was soo mad. Hes definately not gonna fix because hes a dumbasss older teen than I am. I know anyone with knowledge of car electrical can fix it in like 10 minutes... Is it posssible that maybe its just a fuse thingie that is causing the problem? Where Can I find EXACT information on the Car's Wiring? I was rushing into installing my new Slapp in the Car and Now I dont even have the radio :( The Car drives and runs fine but I dont feel conftrable driving it like that. I'm 18 and i've just spent all my money on my insurance policy, registration, and sound system (LOL) PLease dont tell me to yahoo it or Google it because i've done that and all sites SUCK!

We just had a new motor and transmission put in the truck a few months back. It has been doing great since then, until the other day. We were driving it, it backfired, and then the motor died. It wouldn't restart. Fuel pump was no longer getting fuel. Found that fuel relay was getting no power yet fuse to relay was getting power.Got a new relay and installed. Truck started up and then died again. now no power to relay, fuse, or coming into fuse. Fuse, relay, and battery tested, all still good, just no power going into the fuse that goes into the relay and then to the fuel pump. We can hard wire into the battery and truck will run and can be drove all day with no problems. I think the next step would be the computer, but, not sure that that would be the problem since it works with being wired directly into the battery. If I need, is there a way to test the computer? So, what do the machanics on board think it could be?

Thanks to anyone who even considers answering!

This is a stupid question, but its bugging the hell out of me.

I saw a 2006 PT Cruiser GT with something that looks like a plastic towel hanger above the glove compartment. You know those (usually) metal bars in your bathroom, by the shower, where you hang your towel? It looks exactly like that but its plastic, just above the glove compartment. I have no idea what it's for. Any ideas?

Thanks!

can I still go for this lesabre given these conditions? if yes, how much should I pay for it? can it run for another 40k ?

i had a car that showed a drain on my car battery with the ignition switch off. i hooked a test light up to the battery, and noticed when i changed out the combo lever switch on the steering column , the light went out, i thought a switch just opened or closed an electrical path, and was not an electrical load itself. i have heard people say you have a bad ground problem. with there not being a light or some type of electrical device that appears to be on, what else could be draining my battery. thanks for any tips.
