I know its old so dont tell me its old. The top end is good the carberatour is good and the clip is in the right place. It shifts all right The only problem is that you can prolly ride it for about 20 mins unless you have it wide open the whole time. Once it dies on you it wont start again. I then check the spark plug and every time it is covered in oil. The gas and oil mixture is at the right ratio. I use the yamalube oil to mix. Also the air filter is clean. Any info would be great.

I am looking to install a new radio in my truck. Usually this wouldn't be a big deal, but on this truck, the cassette player is in a totally different part of the dash then the radio. Do i just block one off? wouldn't that look strange? anyone have a set up for this?
Thanks
Adam

I was hit by a car in December - NYC - hit and run - got plates - got witnesses - 8 tib/fib fractures - 2 surgeries - still in a cast - might have to walk with a cane forever - will need at least one cosmetic surgery when it heals -filed for lawsuit.
I have been out of work for almost 8 months now and will never be able to go back to work - i will have to change fields, but im not able to work yet. I also dont qualify for any disabily benefits or lost earnings.
My lawyer tells me there is a certain amount of money i can get but i need more than that because of all the medical bills, money i could have made working, a pure hell of pain and not being able to cross one street without thinking i am risking my life doing it.
Is it true or is there a way i can get more money?
(i think the driver doesnt have any personal assets)

My boyfriend has a 1990 Mazda Miata with over 200,000 miles on it and the transmission locked up on him today while driving on the interstate. I told him I think he should try to sell it for parts but he's thinking of getting a new transmission for it. I don't think it'd be worth it considering he only payed $1000 for it.
What do you guys think?

Hi have the above truck. I parked it and went to start no go. It turns over fine will not fire up. I noticed last few times I drove it it seem to hesitate a little. It has lots of fuel in tank no fuel going to electric carb. They call it fuel injection but looks like big electric carb. I poured a little fuel into carb and it fired right up and ran till out of fuel a second or two. I am thinking fuel pump if so where is it located and is a big job? Thank You Wayne

Ok so a few weeks ago my grandpa reached through the window to unlock the door because he didnt have a key (it was down far enough that he reached in easily) and now the alarm goes off whenever you lock the door.

She locks the door, and about 15 or 20 minutes later the alarm goes off until you unlock the door. She has been doing it over and over to watch and see if anyone is touching it, but nobody is around and it just keeps going off, but not until at least 15 minutes later. If she leaves the door unlocked, it never goes off at all.

However, we live in a downtown area and if she leaves it unlocked (its a nice car) chances are its going to get stolen soon.

Anyone know why this is happening or how to stop it?

I had the radiator replaced and the mechanic then discovered cracked head gaskets and a few other things so I was wondering how much (average) I will be charged for them to fit a re-conditioned engine and if after that anything else would need doing?

I normally stick with the factory brand or Mobil one. Bmw recommends oil changes every 15K with full synthetic oil. However, since I change the oil more often, say every 7,500 miles.....will this oil be a good choice too? The price on this one is a good deal when purchased as a gallon.

I'm thinking all synthetic oil brand's are all similar. I change the oil very often since I drive a lot, about 30K miles per year. With all the frequent changes, I thought saving a little money is not a bad idea. This is for a 2006 325i.

A month ago I was rear-ended at a stop light. There was $8,000 damage to my minivan. Because the frame was not bent, the insurance company had it repaired. The driver who hit me left the scene without exchanging information. Witnesses got the license plate, and my insurance company found him.

Fortunately, I do not seem to have been injured, although I did not sign the release because I have heard that sometimes symptoms present later. I was hit pretty hard, and was pushed into a big truck in front of me (no damage to the truck, only my hood), so I was really involved in 2 collisions.

My insurance company offered me $800. Is that reasonable? It seems to me that the driver should get some sort of monetary consequence for choosing to commit a felony, rather than give me his insurance information.
