The past couple of days my turn signals in my car have been operating at a slow speed. Also, the battery/voltage gauge is closer to the low end, not in the middle. What is wrong?

I have a 1992 Mercury Topaz. Thsi car looks and runs like new. I just purchased it. The problem is that the fluid in the overflow bottle for the radiator looks brown. I had someone look at it and they said it probably just needs a system flush. Could this be true? The oil on the dipstick does not look foamy.

I have a 2000 Chevy S-10 that started running very poorly. My brother came to take a look and thought that it was the transmission and said I could drive it home like that, which he did. He did a horrible park job so I started it back up to park it better and found that the check sngine light came on. The mechanic I took it to did diagnosistics and said that all four cyclinders are mis-firing. He has me waiting until Monday to try and figure it out, but I would like to know what I am possibly looking at fixing.

"Working on cars is fun and interesting yet it can be a challenge at times especially if you don't know much about them and still learning everything there is to know which is neverending"

Sometimes that is where you will find me under the hood of my car making minor repairs or doing premventitive maintence on it.

I have a 2005 dodge stratus and I can go a week on a tank of gas. For some reason, when the AC is running I use 2 or 3 tanks for the same amount of driving. Does anyone have an idea what's wrong so I can fix it? I'd rather not pay a mechanic an armload of money to tell me when I can find out for myself.

Any ideas?

I recently got a quote on a bumper repair. I was wondering what the chances are that the estimate is actually an overestimate or an underestimate of the real value of the work. Do these things usually turn out to be pretty accurate?
