The website is www.fun2savefuel.myffi. biz and it offers a 7-14% increase in mpg and other goodies that conditions the engine. I want to try it, but wanted to see if there are anyone who has tried them. My cousin's friend said it worked in his car. If you check out the site, let me know me what you think?

I tried changing the Crankshaft position sensor with no results. I also tried reseting the trouble code and once the engine fires up the check engine lights turns on right away once more.

Tonight I found out that the key broke off in my ignition. I am still able to start the car, but I cannot open up my trunk of course.

How can I correct the problem? I have lost my spare key, and I don't know where or how I can get another key for the car. It's a 1998 Ford Contour SE.

I'd like to get another spare key, but seeing that my original is in two pieces, one of which is inside the ignition, I don't know how to correct this problem.

Is my car still safe to drive? How can I get a new key, and get the old piece out of the ignition inexpensively?

I have a 1977 Dodge B200 van. It runs great but whenever I'm slowing down to stop, somewhere between 2-5mph my van gets a little jump of power/acceleration. This happens EVERY time. It's not dangerous, but it is pretty annoying and I'd like to correct any problems with the vehicle.
I would prefer not to take it to a mechanic if it's just something to be done with the carb.

Thanks!

I am a car-hypochondriac (every little mistake I make, I worry it is bigger than it is, or that it will have lasting, damaging effects on my car). I just got a 1994 Golf, and I am still getting used to driving it around. Today I made a right turn a little too close, and the rear right wheel went over the curb a little.

The car doesn't wobble (that I can notice, it has racing springs and old struts so the ride is a bit bumpy), but the wheel is scraped on the lip and a small chunk of the tire is missing.

Has this done damage to the car at all, suspension, etc... or is this just a wheel problem. Also, even though I don't feel any difference in the ride (no wobble), has the wheel been damaged beyond my notice?

I just need some assurance that I didn't really screw up my car, and that this is just a teeny little scrape on the wheel.
