I have a JL Audio 250/1 Monoblock. My subs are JL W0's. Now, could I blow them? I've always been told to tuen it up, untill it starts soundlike like distortion, then its time to tuen it down. But i can never really tell. Ive also been told that you can see how much the cone is moving. if its moving to much, then you want to turn it down, but its hard to see the cone when it faces the abck of my truck.

any thought?

She told me that the steering or the car swerves to the RIGHT. She was right. 2 days of owning/driving this van I I noticed that It swerves to both left and right.

Brought it to a dealership and had the ALIGNMENT done. They said the Alignment is prefect and that the tires are wearing off evenly (all 4)!

When I drove it back home - it still swerve to the right and left. But I guess more obvious to the Right.

Well. I had the tires switched again and the problem seem to stay.

They said it needs new tires but ALL tires are like 5/32.

I'm tired of all this. DOes anybody know what the problem is and how to fix it?

Or does it need to be replaced? My chain has two master links from what I can tell (they are the only two that are riveted) and both links are kinked. The 0-ring is also coming out of one of the links.

From takeoff was the sr-71 quick to reach say mach 2 and then slower to accelerate to mach 3 or what. Like the acceleration in MPH or something.
Sources please.

I have 198* jeep cj7 with a 258 inline 6 and i'm trying to figure out what year it is. I'm rebuilding the engine and the casting number is giving me either 79' 80' or an 81'. the jeep has a SR-4 4spd transmission and a Dana 300 transfer case but it has no vin # complements to a YJ body conversion. So what i'm asking here is what are the differences in the engines of those years and/ or would it make any differences in the kits? Also any extra informations and informative websites would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advanced

My boyfriend has a Ford Aerostar and when he hits the brakes the tail lights come on but not when he turns them on to drive at nighttime. He bought the bulbs for it and replaced them but its still not working. Perhaps its not the bulb? Maybe a fuse? Someone help me!

I took my car to a shop that I've had oil changes & also prior inspection. My car is used but excellent condition; purchased 2 yrs ago, new brakes & more. Owner of shop told me how impressed he is w/condition of car. I drive it short distances only; my office is 5 miles from home so have little mileage since purchase. Owner was out for this 2nd year inspection last week so his son worked on my car. After a short time he showed me the brake pads were worn but that all else was in good condition. I told him to replace the pads. Over an hour later I went to pay the bill & it was nearly $400.00. I found he not only replaced the pads but rotors as well. I told him I had not authorized him to do anything but replace the pads. He said that even though they were in good condition they were a little worn on one side & that they do not like to turn the rotors as "they use to do in the old days" so they replace the rotors too & that I should I should know this. I had to pay or not get my car back

I purchased a 1991 Civic that needs both rear power window motors replaced. I found the same car at a salvage yard and tried to pull the motors but cannot figure it out. I removed all of the screws holding the motor to the door but there is one more bolt connecting the motor to the window. The problem is I cannot reach it because the window in in the "closed" position. How can I lower the window so that I can access the bolt? OR, how do I remove the bolt with the window closed?

I have a 1999 Toyota Sienna that developed a problem with the digital clock, interior lights and external, electric door locks at the same time. Is there a fuse or something that is common between these? Where would it be located or what else should I check. Thanks!

I'm in the State of Hawaii and my car got hit by a garbage truck in my parking lot at home.Minor damage on the rear bumper.Guilty party seems to be cooperating so far.Claims to have left note on window,but it was never found.They claim,they took picures of the bumper and license plate.Am I not legally supposed to get a copy of their report,pictures,written statements (It's a garbage disposal business after all,it was their truck that hit my car) and what do I need to do next? And why do I have to go to do all the work, driving around to get estimates, for repair,etc. and what is the next step? Also is there like a website or a business I can contact about this matter,besides my insurance company?

I live in Bluefield, WV. I just bought an antique 1974 Yamaha 750. I would like to find a used exhaust and a seat. I have brand new mufflers for it and I can actually have the pipe bent for it but I would like to have a factory flange and the pipe itself even if its rusted up, that way I can have a shape to go by. The seat doesn't have to have the upholstery or even the padding. I would just like to have the seat pan to go by because I'm going to redo the seat anyway. But the better the shape the seat is in the easier it will be on me. I also might take an oil tank and cover. The ones I have have some small rust holes. They can be welded but if I can find some cheap I may just buy them. If anyone knows where I can find some parts or even a whole bike for cheap I would appreciate it.

The White Speeding Signs with the Speed numbers listed on the highways and roads, and interstates, are showing us the MAXIMUM Speed allowed by the law, not the Officers. They Officers uphold the laws, just like the Military does not tell their comanders they dont want to fight, they do it, they took the oath to uphold the constitution. We have the choice as Drivers as to weather we want to break the laws we learned and that are posted. If we go through a red light or stop sign, then we broke the law, if we speed any numbers over what is posted, then we broke the law, If we dont have our seat belts on, then we broke the laws, If we dont turn on our turn signals or cross over a solid white line to change lanes, then we are breaking the laws A solid White line is to be treated as a Solid Wall or barier and not using your signals will leave you possibly at fault in incodents as you are not letting anyone else know your intentions of changing lanes or turning off. So Quit complaining
