How long, and how far, can an unmanned sailboat float in the Pacific Ocean? What about bigger boats, yachts and cruise ships maybe?

We have a '96 cadillac with a north star engine. For some reason it keeps over heating all the time. We are constantly putting antifreeze in it but it must be leaking cause it just isnt working. We took it in to the shop and they fixed the thermostate and it wasnt that because it is still doing it. The guy said it might be the head gasket but they dont fix them there. The thing is I thought if it was the head gasket it would start smoking.

I want to paint the dash and trim on the inside of my car; is there anything better than just using a nice grade spray paint?

ive emailed several car dealers about lease offers and vehicle availibility and i have not once received an actual answer. instead they respond with questions of their own and a bunch of other bullshit that is pretty stupid.

i ask them what there lease offer on a g35 sedan is and they email me for 4 days saying they are looking in on it and ask if i was contacted by any of them, would i want a test drive, etc, but never answer the damn question which would take like 10 seconds to answer.

I know that you have to pass a written test, but is there anything else?

I'm looking to replace the pcv valve on my 1993 Ford Ranger. It's a 4-cylinder, but has 2 distributors and 8 spark plugs (Ford's answer to fuel economy).

My book says it's on the left side of the engine in the oil separator. What's an oil separator? Is the left side of the engine the passenger side?

Thanks,
Sean

My 99 ford taurus with 98xxx miles started leaking transmission fluid when the car is put in reverse. Checked under the car looked like the pan was bent, fixed that, and put in some anti-leak fluid. The fluid level is fine with the car not running, but shows almost empty when running. Any ideas? Is the resevoir tank just low or is there maybe a leak Im not finding? Anyway, Im having it looked at tuesday, just wanted to get yalls opinion. Thanks!!!!!

I live in the UK and would like to buy a Mustang. I have looked on the FOrd mustang website and have seen that you can get them for 19, 225 dollars, as in the uk they are well above 20k+! Is there any way i can buy from america and get it shipped over here as the UK really is one of the biggest rip offs ever?

I've heard that if you keep your speed to under 70 mph, you save up to 25% on fuel economy. I've noticed though (at least in my Honda CRV) that when I'm going 60-65, the RPM gauge hovers right around 2500 rpm. I know cars could probably get to 70mph before they hit 2500rpm, but mine might not since it's an SUV. So my question is...is it going below 2500rpm that will save me on gas, or does it solely depend on going less than 70mph?

I have a 4.3 v6 engine that i have lightly modified. Such as K&N cold air induction kit, throttle body spacer, underdrive pulleys, headers, edelbrock heavy duty water pump, flowmaster dual exhaust, and a high 160amp alternator. I am afraid that if i put in a cam the engine will some how go all out of wack such as timing and every thing. What does the cam do? How will it affect my engine?

I drove it home with no problems. Before I got home, I filled the tank up and stopped at the bank. I left the car running, but when I got in to take off, it stopped. I waited awhile before it started again. It kept stopping en route home. Once parked it wouldn't start again. There is no clicking sound; it doesn't "catch". Everything shuts off. i have oil in it, but I don't think it's enough. My anti-freeze reservoir is very close to bone dry. There was never any smoke. The car didn't shake. It jerked after being stopped before going. I suspect the alternator but I want to be sure. Any suggestions, hints, thoughts?
