I read an article somewhere on the internet about flushing something related to the oil that would keep my Durango running smooth. The writing suggested that there would be oil build up, sludge, somewhere in the engine that the dealer does not maintanance. Can anyone help me?

I just bought this bike and the owner didn't have any manuals, and I have oil leaking from the expansion chamber where it connects to the cylinder head. Is this normal or is the fuel mixed too rich, there is even oil coming out of the tail pipe when I ride it. Need help respond soon.

One of my good friends, who happens to specialize in building imports, said that he heard that there was a conversion kit for the neon to hold a VR4. I think this would be an awesome idea if it can be done, but i'm not too sure about the AWD to FWD concept. I'm trying to find a replacement motor for my 420a, perferrably turbo charged, and i'm open to any suggestions

Call this an experiment - pilots need not answer. How much do you, as an average person, think that the following people are paid per yer?

A newly hired airline pilot, flying prop airplanes?

A newly hired airline pilot flying small jet airplanes?

A newly hired airline pilot flying medium/large jets?

An airline pilot flying medium/large jets 10 years into his/her career?

An airline pilot after 20+ years?

In all the books I have. they say to refer to the emission control grap. I dont have such things! My engine Is solid muscule. The only thing you can see is engine. And lots a room under the hood.

I have a midsize carb, Jr torqure intake, A RV cam that runs from 1,000-4,500 And duel headers that I plane to ajust later. Be sides that all else is stock.

Every thing is manule and I wouldent have it any other way.

When I turn my right front wheel to the right it makes a grinding noise. I am wondering if this is covered because I bought this car with 32000 miles on it and the warranty goes until 36000. Also do I just take this to any chevy dealership? What do I say?

"A strut bar is designed to reduce this strut tower flex by tying two parallel strut towers together."

What's the "strut tower?"
What does it mean when it says "reduce strut tower flex" or "reduce chassis flex?"

A fricken' squirrel ate through a bunch of my wires near my radiator, causing the A/C to fail and make my right turn signal go wacky. Also the check engine light is on too. How much to fix, and how can I prevent this from ever happening again? All advice is welcome.

I drive a 2007 Nissan 350z Roadster. Its been very humid lately, and Ive had my A/C on with the top down alot. Lately Ive been noticing around the vents water forms on the plastic vent and the vinyl around it.

I read that if you stop seeing a puddle under your car and see water on your vents, then it could mean you have a tube clogged in your A/C.

However, I still have a decent sized puddle under my car along with the water on the vents.

Is this just the humidity or do I have a problem with my A/C unit? Thanks
