Cars & Transportation - 12 August 2007

There was some kind of attatchment on the FLSTF Fatboy that the T-800 stole from that cigar smoking biker that allowed him to hold the shotgun he stole from that other guy.

What is that, and where can one be purchased?

Also, sorry if this confuses anyone with this being in a motorcycles category, I wanted to put it on here because I thought the likelyhood of someone that owns a Harley that has seen T2 would be greater than someone who likes watching T2 owning a Harley.

the window mount doesn't move up or down. It occassionally tries to go down but just goes maybe one inch and gets stuck. I've lubricated all parts-nothing happens. Ive removed the window and i hear the motor going fine yet it won't move the mount up or down. Could it be I need a new window regulator-not motor. All of the other windows work fine. Does anybody know about this stuff?

He has a 1998 Subaru Outback Legacy Wagon. He wants to know why his abs, air bag, check engine light are on. He's refreshed them but they keep on coming back. The codes are P1722, P1722 PD, P1103, P1103 PD, P0463 PD. If he knew what these codes meant then he would know what to bring it into the shop for. He needs all the help he can get because he can't afford to buy another car.

I have a 77 Monte Carlo that wont pass smog, but I'm getting decent mileage about 12mpg, and if it doesn't pass smog my dad wants me to sell it and buy a new truck, it was my moms first car, and i don't want to sell it.
Its been parked for last part of a decade, but runs, needs tranny seals.

It wasn't passing smog before it was parked.

I am no car expert so I cannot tell if I really need something when the mechanic offers some services. By the way I am going to the certified deal mechanic. I am going to get an oil change and tire rotation. Is there anything else that I should check for or replace. I have not done any work with the brakes over the last two years and got a wheel alignment at 21,000 miles.

... or can I just get an alignment first? I guess more to the point: Do new shocks (in OEM sizes) affect alignment?

This is for a 1998 Toyota Tacoma 4wd, 144k miles

(99 malibu). I still cant' get my brakes to bleed. I followed the suggestion about bleeding @ the master cylinder. The Front brake line (which I'm assuming goes to the front brakes) did fine. plenty of pressure after having someone pump the brakes up. As I mentioned in my last question, back brake bleeder valves are getting no fluid to them (tried pumping and gravity bleed). So when I tried to bleed the back line at the master cylinder (which once again I'm assuming goes to the back brakes) I'm getting no pressrue. At best I'm getting a couple of little drips out of it after opening the line up (after having someone pump the brakes up). Is this leaning toward being a master cylinder problem? plenty of pressure out of the front line at the master cylinder, but none out of the back line. at the moment the $90 for the new master cylinder is hard to come by, so I want to try and make sure that is my problem before investing the money. Thanks for everyones help!

Are they even called anything? I was watching them drag race earlier. It seems like whoevers car doesn't break before reaching the finish line wins haha. I have not seen 2 drag racing cars run perfectly down the drag strip. Whoever can hold up their engine from breaking will win.

1996 Dodge 1500 4x4 with 101,000 miles. I was thinking of buying for $5,500. I will be looking at it tomorrow. The owner said the air does not work. I don't know yet if it blows air or if it is dead. Can anyone tell me the cost of replacing or what it takes to fix. Also, the owner did not take it in for recall in 1998 vapor canister/purge. Does this only involve emissions or could it clog up the engine in the long run?

I will be checking this truck out tomorrow. What shoule I look for when driving and inspecting. Please help..

"I have an 87 4.0 auto 4x4 inline 6. It will start cold with no
problem but after a few miles in hot temp or 20 minutes of driving will
stall or not start again until the engine has cooled some. I had a
mechanic look at it (small town) and suggested either ignition coil, module or
pick-up coil. I tested the ignition coil and it passed all ohm tests
but not sure if looking at replacing the entire distributor is the
correct way of thinking or if there is some other problem here. The engine
temp is fine and so is the fuel pump (already tested)."

They park by the air pump, then go inside to pick up a few items. WTF?
Or should my question be titled - why do they let retarded people drive?

My 96 chevy s-10 4.3 v6 2wd p/u has been giving me troubles starting for three months. It cranks over but doesnt fire. I checked the distibutor cap and and rotor, which the distributor cam was rusty so i used a fire brush to clean it off. DIDN'T fix anything though. I don't think its the plugs or wires because it drives fine after started and every forum i see with the same problem, people change them and still don't have results. I don't believe its the fuel pump, because i can hear it click on when i turn the key on and its beeen going on for 3 months.
Air filter is clean, I don't know where the fuel filter is. The only way I get it starte now is spraying carb cleaner in the intake plate. No service engine light on either.

Got an 2000 Acura 3.2TL with 87K miles since I bought it brand new. No problem with the car. Been using the standard 5W-30 oil. from what I've heard and read about synthetics, would it be prudent for me to shift to that type oil or as they way if it aint broke don't fix it.
