I was wondering if anyone would know what was wrong with my 1989 plymouth horizon?The main sparkplug going to the ignition coil is sparking right where it attaches to the coil and cause a miss in the engine.I made sure the coil was properly grounded but the sparking goes from the main post on the coil to the secondary posts which causes the miss in the engine.The coil is new but cant understand why all the sparking???Thanks Paul

I got the previous post problems fixed by bypassing a wire from another live wire from in back of fuse box. This got my rear Back-up lights working, along with Signal lights also. But still no HORN...Here's the latest problem I diagnosed with this is there's power in the fuse for the horn located in the fuse panel, still NO HORN. I noticed it has duel standard horns which two sets of wires branch off to plug into the two horns right below one another. So, I tested them direct from battery with wires, 1 works, 1 don't...I disconnected the one that don't, and left the one that does plugged in, still NO HORN. I can't pop the stearing wheel cover off because of the air bag. The horn button is small black buttons on left and right side of steering wheel. But I still have power from the fuse box in the HORN FUSE slot...what should I do so I can get a horn working again? Any help please...

I know that station wagons were mainly used as practical family cars, but even when people are looking for practical vehicles, they still usually place some importance on the appearance of the car. Did anyone ever actually think that station wagons were nice cars?

I have been having intermittent problems with the hvac (passenger cabin) fan. The issue first started when running the A/C in the summer, while steering the fan would make a squealing sound. Around the same time the A/C was dripping water on the passenger floor. I had the shop fix the while the car was in for inspection (clogged drain line) and I replaced the passenger cabin air filter at the same time.

Shortly after the A/C dripping was fixed the squealing of the fan started to happen more frequently and not just when I was steering. The one day while the fan was on low speed and the climate control set to vent I smelled an electrical burning smell coming out of the vents. I turned off the fan for the remainder of the drive. When I tried to turn the fan on later Speed 1 (what the fan was set to when the burning smell came out) did not work. However speeds 2-5 worked ok. Soon though the burning smell came back and all speeds of the fan ceased to work.

It's a '92 Volkswagen Jetta, it has a sunroof, and has been sitting idle for about one year. The mold is on the seats, seat belts, floor (most extreme) and on the steering wheel a bit.

I need some advice before I take my car in again. I have a 1997 Chrysler LHS. Several months ago (in May or June) I took my car into a shop and paid over $400 to have a Tie Rod bushing replaced. Well, about two weeks ago, I started having the exact same symptoms again!! Took the car into the same shop and they were very hesitant to look at the car again. When they finally did they told me the problem was on the other side this time (they claim they replaced the right bushing and now the left one and the actual tie rod ends are bad.) Took it to another shop and they say the right bushing is actually the worst off, and that the other shop should have replaced both bushings at once because they come in a kit. This new shop says that it doesn't really look like they fixed anything!!!! I say the other shop should refund my more that $400 so I can have it properly fixed (which is now going to cost me $600!!!) I am furious! Does anyone know if I am entitled to a refund over this?

I work at a dealership and one of the Techs had me install a voltage regulator on our fork lift. After I installed it he asked me if I energized the volt. reg. I said no cause I had no idea what he was talking about, I'm 21 and that 's way before my time. I was just wondering if anyone can tall me how? He also mentioned something about setting the polarity. None of the other tech remembered how to do it. And all I can tell you about the regulator is that its 3 wires and thats it. Any help would be appreciated.

P.S. If anyone is thinking about becoming a fork lift tech, your crazy. I had to put a starter in it and that was a pain, took 3 hours.

I have a 93 grand prix and I got a new air filter for my car and the fit and build quality was much worse than my old one wich was an STP. On the Purolator the rubber gasket was much thinner, the filter was flimsy and the gasket it self was separating from the paper!. So I returned it to Advanced and I looked at another one and the same thing was happening on that one.

I have a 2001 Chevrolet Prism. The right turn signal works when the flashers do, but when the signal itself is activated, the light stays solid. The inidcator on the dashboard also stays lit and solid even when the left signal is blinking. It has the automatic headlights that turn on automatically when it gets dark. However, the turn signal works from the rear and when it is daylight, but when it gets dark, it loses it mind. Anybody have any ideas? I was wondering if it could be a fuse or maybe a short somewhere.

When i turn on my car and go from "P" to "D" the car goes but then a couple of seconds later when i press it the car engine revs but it does not move and then it makes a noise and keeps going. This also happens when i try and do a broken U-turn and go from "D" to "R", the cars sticks. I know it has something to do with my transmission, but what is it? it only happens when i turn on the car and then it does not happen again. Why are my gears sticking like this??
