97 Toyota for runner -I "think" I have a dead battery -at least it happened in my own garage and didn't leave me stranded. But how can I make sure that is the problem? I am afraid some mechanic will sell me down the river and try to tell me it is something else, when all need is a new battery. UGH!
Super appreciate any help here. I have my own "Chilton" book -don't laugh! hahaha I managed to change my own oil the other day! Felt pretty proud of myself.

Considering India IS IT true that many people break some laws in their life time perhaps which are small or of less severe nature ; for example: Traffic laws , Trespass, Bribery , Cyber laws, Disrespect of national anthem or flag, Cheating ,Copying in exams, Small theft, Defamation ,Electricity theft, Teasing or Molesting females,Child labour & Child marriage in rural places ........
knowingly or negligently or because of unawareness or circumstances and remain unnoticed ,uncomplained & unharmed????
IF yes; what do u think ; how many people of that kind are there in India???
IF yes; what are reasons behind it??

About a week ago or so, I noticed one of my tires looks slightly deflated. I wouldnt say it looks flat, just looks like it needs some air, like a basketball when you use it too much. It drove fine but last night after i drove for about 5 mins, i could feel something like wobbling a little bit so i stopped and put some air in it. I drove it 30 mins after that and it seemed fine and the tire looks fine today. I dont know if i should even bother trying to drive it to work, or just get a new tire. If it did have a slow leak, is it ok to drive for awhile till i goes low again??? How do you know the difference between your tire needing a little air, or if its flat? If there is a hole, its only deflating little by little to where you really cant tell. I need some advice. Thanks!

I really don't have any car smarts but I can follow directions carefully. My timing belt broke and I have to get a new one but it's going to cost like $600 for the belt AND labor. So I'm hoping to be able to do it on my own. Any advice or is there a link you could provide to tell me how to replace it? A book to guide me through it?

I'm booking some train tickets online, and it gives me the option of front, backwards or airline seats. Ideally I want table seating, but I haven't a clue if this is the airline seats.

I have an 84 Chevy Citation X-11, I pulled out the engine due to its Crankshaft snapped by previous owner. I yanked the wiring from the car I Dropped a 3800 series 1 N/A from a 92 Regal in it but to make things easier I used 3300 components on the engine from a 91 Ciera. Everything 3300 converted was the ignition module, F. Injectors, Crank Sensor, Reluctor plates behind Harmonic balancer, entire engine wiring harness including computer and wiring through out the whole car front to back. It has taken a good deal of effort to pull it off.. But now I face a problem I nor anyone *including dealership mechanics* can figure out. When I start the car is shakes..not bad but enough to feel thru the car, it will smooth out to a degree but when you hit the gas the car bogs down badly. Fuel pump is working fine with correct pressure at regulator, Spark plugs are carboned but not fouled. Ignition module tested and good.. Only thing I can think of is F.injectors they came from a junkyard Ideas? TY

My boyfriend signed the car title over to me at one point, however, we now want to sell the car. He wrote my name on the back but I never actually transferred the title. Can I just scratch out my name and address, or perhaps use the second (empty) space and just add the new owner's name there?

I just changed the oil in my GMC Sierra 2003 [1500]. I bleed the oil out, changed hte filter, and put in 5 quarts of oil in the truck. I turned the truck on and let it idol for five monutes. I then came back and saw there was some oil comming out of the cap and now theres smoke coming out of the engine. What could this possibly be? I put a new filter on it, lubed it and put it on tight. I did hte same for the cap.

Should i just go get it professionaly done and should it fix the problem? I used w5-30 catrol.

I asked a previous question earlier. I want a motorcycle, but i dont have the upfront money. but easily can make the payments no problem. i went to the dealer and i couldn'tm get it because i have no credit and i recently moved to pennsylvania a week ago for school and everyone i know is in los angeles so, couldnt work that out.

my friend told me, that you can get a used bike from a private seller and work out a montly payment plan. He said his friend got his first bike that way.

is this true? and if so how can it be done? and how does the legal issues and stuff work like paperwork ?
