We took our 1999 Pontiac Firehawk to a car show this weekend and a couple of people said it was "clean". Now I know it was immaculate (my husband is quite the detailer) but it's gotta mean something else because all the other cars were immaculate too.

it "rattles" when it idles and when it's in Drive. it's not as bad when it's in park. it's worse when it's cold. it kinda sounds like the engine is made entirely out of rattle (spray paint) cans.

it's a '98 subaru legacy outback
also has the "check engine" light on (but that came on long before the rattle)

Hello. Due to some scratches on my front and rear bumper, I've decided to do a paint job on my car. I've prepped it by sanding it and priming the areas, painting it with the base color, and clear coated it as well. However, it's not as shiny as the rest of the car; I thought the same shine would be achieved by the use of clear coat, but it seemed it didn't work. Does anybody know what I can do to get it as shiny as the rest of the car?

I have been going thru a very rough spot in life, lost my job and all that and because of this , I could not register my car for this year in April and my car insurance lapsed in July .I just got a temp job and getting ready to sort out this mess and on my way to work this morning, some one hit me from behind.It was a minor dent and broken tail lights so we did not call the police upon my suggestion coz I know my car situation would have put me behind bars.the guy agreed and he got my conatct info and I got his.Now I need to know how he can fix the car without being registerd or insured.he admitted fault but Im worried.the guy does not know about my car being unregistered and uninsured.

I have an '89 Nissan 240SX with a blown SOHC ka24e and a friend willing to give me his DOHC ka24de and all of the parts necessary for the swap for a decent price, I just want to know if there are any modifications that need to be done to the engine bay for it to go in? and if anyone has done this before does everything bolt in and line up, ie: engine to existing tranny, engine to motor mounts...etc?

Our neighbor built his dock about 18" too far into the canal (the lake is on the other side of his dock). I was planning on getting a 24' pontoon boat but it will not fit.

He spent a lot of money and this will not be pretty but his actions have lowered the value of my house and has kept me from getting the boat I want.

Any suggstions as to who to contact first to find out what the rules are and who as jurisdiction?

It's a 1970's-era bass boat, and we ripped the entire floor out of it and re-did it, set it all in with new fiberglass. Then we sanded it all down smooth, and used Bondo to fill all the damaged areas and old holes from all the old equipment we took off. Now we'd like to paint it, but are unsure what kind of paint would be easiest to use and yet durable enough... it has to be something we can apply with brushes and/or rollers. Right now we're only looking to paint the interior, the floor, and the top side of the boat.

There aren't any manuals out there that instruct on how to remove it through the hood, just through the bottom. I've swapped motors and clutches in a 93 Nissan 240sx before, so I "sort of" know what I'm doing. Someone told me something from the suspension needs to be removed, the radiator, the plastic cowl piece below the windshield, and obviously the transmission. Does anything else need to be removed, and do any of these things need to be taken out some special way I'm not aware of (other than the lines attached to the motor)? I know the gas line needs to be de-pressurized before removing it, and drain all the coolant / oil obviously before disconnecting all those lines. Anything else?
