Cars & Transportation - 17 July 2007

I am sure that I need my transmission repaired. I believe I threw the synchros out of whack, and ground them to knubs. Can anyone tell me how much it would cost to repair with $89/hour labor, plus parts! Thanks!

I drive a 96 tacoma 4x4 with an 8000 lb warn winch built in the front bumper. I had problems in the past with the winch but replaced a solenoid and it worked but about 3 months later it isnt working again. The cable will only come out on free spoil and when i try to crank it out with the remote it makes a clicking sound. do i need to replace the other solenoids as well or is it a different problem?

I was doing a wheelie on my street bike. I looked around and no traffic was on the road besides me and my buddy on his bike. I popped it up and will still up and going past an on-ramp i looked over and no traffic coming up the ramp so i continues to ride it. Finally setting it down i see head lights 5 ft from the back of me and i figured a cop so i pulled over. I was polite with Yes Sir/No Sir and gave him no problems. Now Im facing losing my liscense for 6months and paying $250

Tommorrow is Ride to Work Day (July 18th). Who is going to do it?

http://www.ridetowork.org

Yeah, yeah... I know... go ahead and tell me you are all those hard core and ride to work EVERY day, right??? Then how come statistics show that only 0.12% of the 4% of the population with registered motorcycles actually commute to work?

Make a difference, people, and park that cage already! Put the boot on it.....

This from the California Highway Patrol:

"In 2001 there were 3,517 fatal collisions in California. Motorcyclists were involved in 298 (just over 4%) of those collisions. The motorcyclists were at fault in 215 (72%) of the fatal collisions. In 2001 there were 201,478 injury collisions in California. Motorcyclists were involved in 8,014 (just under 4%) of those collisions. The motorcyclists were at fault in 4,266 (53%) of the collisions."

Team Oregon recently reported similar statistics - there, 88% of the accidents cited were the fault of the motorcyclist, and 60% of those were single vehicle accidents.

SO, why on here do I continue to see so many people blasting cages for causing all the problems, justifying their need for loud pipes, etc.??

The Hurt Report is an old saw from the 70's. Quit using it to blame others for your own problems already. We are our own worst enemy. People - it looks to me like we need to learn to be better riders.

The 2007 corolla stock is rapidly running low since the 08s are in the lot and I can get a Corolla LE for a bargain14.6K with side airbags (important for me). How much do people expect the discount to be on a Civic LX once the 08s roll into the lot? Do you expect a 17K car to drop to low 15Ks or will it still be around 16K or more? Thanks for the advice!

i asked this question before: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AizS9ebAc7jJFDFBCRI4mRnsy6IX?qid=20070715073244AA83tYD

i took it in and had it fixed. it was the water pump. he also changed out the lube in the crankcase. he ran it for 15 minutes and it was fine. i brought it back and it was running great. i had it going full blast for over 5 minutes then it slowed down and died. the only way it will run now is idle and it stuggles when its in gear becuase after all, all its doing is idleing. i try to give it any gas and it sounds like its bogging down or something and dies. even when its warm i have to choke it to start it. didnt have to before. i checked all the lines and they are fine. gas is new. i didnt have the vent open and the gas can was caved in so i opened the vent and it was still doing it. could that have messed up the carb or something. also, in nuetral it will rev fine but the trottle can only go so far in nuetral- to the start position. any ideas? thanks

I recently brought a classic 1980 kawasaki z550a and in a moment of foolishness i filled it with octane 99. Once the bike is warm the rev's stay high up after the throttle has been released only decending back to idle after a few minutes. They can be forced down by breaking in gear. The push and pull throttle cables are all returning back to their original positions on top of the carbs so i know they aint sticking. I've now ran the tank to reserve and filled with octane 95 but the problem continues. whats wrong???

i have a 1998 nissan sentra. i just replaced the ac compressor and the receiver dryer.
the compressor was making a loud knocking noise, that is why i replaced it.
before i changed it out my ac would blow pretty cold when i was driving but as soon as i stopped at a light it would stop blowing cold.
after i replaced it the ac blew very cold for a week or two and now it gets warm when i stop the car again.
i put about 16 ounces of synthetic freon in it when i changed the compressor.
i paid a lot more for the synthetic because it is supposed to blow 20% cooler than the regular freon.
i think the recommended is 19 oz so i may need to add a little more. or maybe i need to replace the condensor?

my question is, why does my ac stop blowing cold when im not giving my car gas?!?!

i live in Phoenix AZ. it is 116 degrees everyday, no exaggeration. so this really sucks.

Ok so I have been slacking and left my 2005 ninja 500 out in the rain a couple of times. The bolts and chain are starting to rust. What are the best things to use to get the rust off? Should I replace the chain?
