any ideas??? my car will only overheat after driving about 20 miles on freeway and come to a stop. once moving the car will come back down to mid temp. i had to turn on the heat today in an accident so it would not overheat. i took to the dealer and they said they could not verify. i checked the coolant and made sure there was not an air pocket. coolant looks good, both fans are coming on. the car has 65k on it. when i come to a stop and it is on mid if i give it gas and rev only 500-1000 rpm's the gauge will rise. has me stumped. any thoughts????

Given that WWII fighters were equipped with fairly standard blowback operated machine guns and cannon, what was the mechanism by which the shells avoided the propellor blades? I suppose this question applies mostly to Luftwaffe aircraft which had nose-mounted weaponry. A subsiduary question might be, why did allied aircraft always carry ordnance that deliberately avoided the issue? Sorry, but I'm just interested.

I have 4 gauge battery and ground wire in my car right now, i have (2) P2 Punch and a Punch amp right now, i have (2) 15 inch Solobaric L7 (4 ohm) and a Hifonics Brutus BXi 2006D (4000 watt peak, 2000 rms). My question is will the 4 gauge wire work? or do i need to go with 1/0. Also would a capacitator take the job of a new alternator for a while until i get some money, and how much would it cost roughly?

I sanded down my tailights to get the gunk off of them and got them all cleaned up. I put some clear coat on them to get them all nice and shiny, but I ended up with terrible runs in the clearcoat. How can I get them out, preferrably not using sand paper..

I went to an autoshop and the clerk told me that I can add seafoam into the air intake hose (the large, acordian like hose that connects from my air filter box to my engine). Is this true? Do I absolutely have to use the vacumn line and if so, where is it? I have a 2000 Chevy Prizm.

I have also heard that you can add the whole can at a time but I am nervose about this. I think it sounds smarter to add half a can at a time and repeat the whole procedure a second time on with the rest of the can.

I am picking up an immaculate 91 cherokee with a blown 4.0 and am contemplating what to do for the engine. couple quick ?'s. For 91, was Jeep still AMC or had it been purchased out by Chrysler already. Also would it be better off re-building the 4.0 I6 (I have heard they are underpowered and prone to failure) Replacing it with a Ford 302 EFI or swapping in a Chevy 4.3V6. I know V8 swaps (especially 350 chevy's) into these can be a major pain but have also heard that a late 80's early 90's mustang 302 is the easiest to fit in due to the shape of the rear sump oil pan and low profile EFI intake. The jeep is an automatic and havent' been able to find anything for the trans as far as dependability, I've read all the reports about the manual transmissions not being up to par for even a mild 302 but nothing about the auto also an Inexpensive 2-3" lift to clear 31's Thanks

It is making a whistling noise.
It says on the vacuum itself that if there is a whistling noise, then that means that there is a vacuum.
It also says to check the manual, which I have lost.
Does anyone know what to do?
