Cars & Transportation - 14 November 2007

Hi guys. I live in Cyprus and over here we drive on the left side (Steering wheel is on the right)

I recently bought some xenon headlights for my car over ebay. But after installing them my electrician told me that they are for left steering wheel cars.

I was told that its not a very big issue, only that i could be slighty blinding the opposite cars (not worse than having the big headlights on)

I was wondering if there is a trick or an easy mod to fix this. I cant be bothered to open an arguement wih the seller and also have to ship them back

Thanks

i have a 1990 buick regal , with a 3.1 v6 engine. up till last week everything was fine. and one morning the car would not start without me pushing on the gas pedal slightly when i started it. usaully the car starts on a dime in the morning and every other time. when the car gets going down the block i need to hold the gas down or it will stall, but when it gets wamed up, it goes away and won't stall. now even when the car is warmed up and i drive a couple of miles and stop the car and shut it down, it won't start again without me pushing on the gas pedal a little.??? what gives.

Car is a 1993 3.3L v-6 automatic with 240,000 miles and has been having problems starting for a few months. It will drive for 3-4 days then start running really rough and stalling out and then unable to start again for a few days. Now it will not start no matter what even with a jump. The battery is good had it tested and all the lights/radio come on in start position but when go to turn it over everything goes out instantly and it doesn't even try to turn over. Is it safe to assume my starter had been slowly dying and is now dead or should I look at the wiring, relays, solenoid first?

I bought an old mondeo with the intention of taking the engine out and using it for a project i had. Since then my work van has died and i need a car and was wondering if i could put the mondeo back on the road. When i bought it the guy sent the V5 off to say it had been scrapped. Can it be put back on the road? How would i go about it? Is it going to cost a bit of money as i only paid £80 for it and dont really want to spend much? Cheers everyone

My friend said something about rebuilding the fuel intake....but I'm not sure.
I'm willing to spend money, but I want to make sure that the money I spend is well worth it.

Preatty much all the cars i see on the street are stupid looking and not cool enough like why cant they make cars that look like the eclipes, audi r8, or some other cars. Why do they have to make those cars that look like the pontiac sunfire like none of them are good looking god im so angry. All the good looking ones are expenive as hell come on man why, i need to know why if i was in charge id just have everything the same except id make the cars exterior look nice. Companys could make more money in my opinion if the cars looked nice. All the cars dont need to be fast they just have to look good.
