I'm buying a new 2 wheel-drive, single-cab Silverado. Should I go for the 4.8L or 5.3L motor? I haul a two-horse trailer about 5% of the time. I'm trading down from a 4 wheel-drive Duramax diesel, so I know I'll be dissapointed either way, but so much of my driving is just commuting. Will I see a big difference (milage vs. power vs. parts/maintainace) between these two gas V8's? Thanks!

I have the 2.5L, 4-cylinder engine....I know where the 'stat's housing is and that it's attached to the block with two bolts, but only the right-most one is visible when I lean in from the top. Even if removed the fan and fan shroud, there isn't enough headroom flexibility to see the other bolt at eye-level. I've thought about buying a mechanic's mirror to gain better perspective and/or alignment for a socket wrench with an extension, but is there an easier way? What components can I remove (if any) to expose the other bolt and make this repair as trouble-free as possible? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated....

ive tried fuel injector cleaning service, and the bottles you buy at auto parts stores, but these things can only go so far.
after almost 17 years of wear and tear, i would like to know when it would be appropriate to change them.

I have a 2002 Olds Alero that has over thirty five thousand miles on the brake pads. And I think it is time to get them replaced. Does anyone know if Firestone is a good auto repair shop for this type of work? Or have you had a bad experience with Firestone?

I have a 1993 Honda Prelude VTEC DOHC 2.2 L motor I wanted to replace the Thermostat, but I bought a part from my local NAPA auto parts store and the size is different from the original. The H22A engine is JDM not USDM, the dimensions of the JDM is 6.5cm diameter, 7.3cm height, 7.3cm Seal diameter. And the USDM that I bought the height maybe the same but the diameter's are wayyyyy different, they're actually smaller than the original one in the motor. Do I need to import it, where can I find it if not imported, Do I need to get another year&model to match the size??? Please help.

all new parts but fuel injection system. i failed to have that replaced with rebuilt. i suspect the fact i cannot smell fuel and do not get any firing when spinning starter, that there is either blockage in motorside filter (where?) not tanks (dual) but can one injector fouled block fuel somehow and prevent it from starting?
