I think that I am going to put a Herculiner or something similar on my truck. The Herculiner comes with enough for 2 coats on a 6 foot bed. Should I spend the extra 30$ for enough for another coat?

I have a dirt bike, a 2 stroke kx250. I want to chagne the oil, I only had it for about 10 hours on it, I dont know what the last guy used.
I got 10 quarts are 10w-30 car motor oil. Can I put it in? (not for the mix, but tranny. I have 2stroke oil for mix)
for my yamaha blaster, it said to use 10w-30, if you wanted to.
Cant seen no harm, but what do you think?
Also, since I put alittle to much oil in gas, and it made the sliencer alittle oily.. if I lower the oil in the gas, will the oil burn away from the silencer?
thanks!

Does anyone know if there are any basic car maintenance courses that a woman can take either in person or online? I live in the New York/New Jersey area? I have a new car and want to learn as much as possible since I don't want to be ripped off by mechanics.

I thought this thing was supposed to get 30 MPG on the highway and a good 23 MPG for the streets. Anyway I slice the cheesecake pie, city or just albout all highway driving, I get a terrible 17-19 MPG with it.

It's not right, I'm supposed to be doing better than that.

There is this mini-compact car named the "Ford Ka" that is common in the United Kingdom. It's a FWD two door with a manual gear box and a 1.3 liter gas engine and I believe they come with turbo-diesel too.

Does anyone reading this have any first hand experience with a Ford Ka? What are your overall impressions of this car?

When replacing your tires does it matter if you get a different brand as long as the size is the same. I want to take my spare a BF Goodwrench P245/70R16 and replace the rear tires. However I am finding it hard to find the same brand tire. If I buy a Firestone of the same size will it be alright?

My car must be invisable, because someone always pulls out infront of me going at leaset 10 under the speed limit. then you have the people that are trying to do two things at once and can't.

Anyone else?

I mainly want it to be a rally car but I also need good all around capabilities. It will be used for other types of racing. Any recommendations for it will be appreciated.

I'm thinking about getting an older jeep wrangler (because that's all I can afford). Do they just keep getting crappier and crappier with higher mileage, or do they stand the test of time?

Jeep owners let me know!

I have a 2005 Toyota Corolla. Today the check engine light came on and the code reader read 1 code "P2716 Press Cntrl Solenoid D Electrical". The ppl at the autozone don't know what that means. They said that maybe I didn't tighten my gas cap. (Hmmm) I tried that and the light is still on. I am pretty sure that the light neds to be reset, right? But still, I don't think that was what the code was for. Does anyone know where I can find out, or better yet know what it means?

Initially I was considering a Subaru WRX STI, but believe I will go with a BMW. What will I find as a noticeable difference between a 325i and 330i? Mind you I am trying to find something with low miles in the neighborhood of 24k.

The car does not shift above 2nd gear (it's an automatic transmission, too).

Typically, how much does it cost to have a mechanic repair this problem?

I have a 18-speed Next Bike it is in pretty good condition other than some rust, but when you are riding in any gear after about three full pedals it clicks. What I mean by clicking is that is clicks like you are changing gears even though you arent. I was thinking something was wrong with the cable. If you know anything about bikes I would appreciate you answer my question. I'm needing to know what the problem is and how to fix the problem if it is fixable.

I opened the box under my hood of my 97 Dodge Stratus. It is the box that says "multipoint fuel injection" on top. It is a 2.4 engine. I stupidly sprayed a lot of starter fluid in what I think was the air intake inside, and it blew the top off and broke it. I have had the car repaired with a new fuel pump, and sensors ($1050) and the tech said I must get a new "air box" for it to run corrrectly. Right now he duck taped it and it starts ruf, once it runs a little while it runs fine. He says it is because I need a new "air box" that seals better. I call parts stores and they don't know what I am talking about. What do you call this?
