It will not allow fuel to go into the carbs. How do I release the vapor lock? Do I need to take it out of the bike?

my wife ran the car out of gas. when we put more gas in (about 5 gal) it will start then sputter and die. I tried to unplug the battery to reset the computer but that did not work. I also left it in ACC for about 15 min then tried to start but it does the same thing.

I get references and it seems the dumbest of dumb mechanics get picked to work on my trucks. I have had nothing but bad experiences and what more do you do, I get references, I see the bad parts and they still screw me over....

So now, I have a 2001 F250 4x4 diesel that is leaking God knows what, think its transfer case fluid not sure. It isn't motor oil, it isn't brake fluid and its a standard tranny.

So I get the ball joints repaired yesterday, take the truck out, it was wobbly down the road, thought well I might have to get used to it. So this morning I go to leave on a 400 mile trip and there it is , pissing in my driveway fluid. So I get underneath and a seal that surrounds the bar coming from the wheel towards the middle of the truck, is hanging 1/2 way off and fluid all under it.

I check the other side, normal looking. I call a friend, says its bad, don't drive to Nebraska, will seize your wheel up.

barr 5.7 gm in mercruiser setup. carb'd, thunderbolt type ignition. new parts- starter, solenoid, slave solenoid, ignition switch, batt. cables. all connections test out for proper continuity. all wires in proper place by schmatics. ok that being said! when the key is turned the engine will start but the starter doesnt disengage. if the key is pulled back to the "acc" position the engine continues to crank until the key is put in the "off" position. then starter will disengage and engine will shut down. upon restart attempt the same thing happens. im at wits end. the only thing that seems odd is the orange lead that goes from the starter to the altenator has contstant power even with engine down and key in off position. visually and meter tested all grounds for leaks. what am i missing? for the record this problem all started out of the blue with no warning, the engine ran fine then one day it got stupid! thanks

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 2-wheel drive that I bought about 6 months ago. Seems like something is always going wrong with it. My current problem is that I have noticed a whining or whrrring sound coming from what I believe is the back underside area of the truck. It does not make the sound when it is in park and idling with the accelerator pressed, only when it is in motion. Furthermore, the sound pitch increases as the accelerator is pressed, then dies down when I start to brake. It sounds almost similar to an emergency vehicle siren. If anyone has any ideas, I would sure appreciate them. I do a lot of work on this truck myself and am better-than-average mechanically, but this one has me baffled. Thanks in advance!

Several people have suggested changing the gas cap and I did that, and nothing happened. The truck runs fine, I'd just like that light to go off. Oxygen sensor is the only other thing I can think of possibly?

The transmission in my car went, and someone close to me wants the car because they can fix it. I haven't paid the garage that looked at my car that told me it was the transmission and that it's done. They want to tow the car (today is Sunday and the shop is closed) is this right? I just need others opinions. I don't think it is though.
