Does this damage the injector nozzles?
Is it lack of lubrication within the fuel?
Or something completely different?

He has to take the door panel off, which is going to be time consuming, but he is a friend of a friend, and isn't going to charge me. But I feel awkward letting him do it for free.

Our Cherokee won't start and we've determined that the alternator has failed. The car has a lot of miles on it, but runs well otherwise. My husband is fairly handy - is the alternator very difficult to replace on this vehicle? It is a 4.0 liter 4X4. Thanks!

Instead of an apology, I agot ( hey man bad news , no tires in stock ) , no apology or hey I'm sorry for the inconvenience or anything. So I want to complain to the co. about this matter.

I have an 85 GMC Suburban that has a new battery, alternator and starter. For some reason when I start it and let it run and cut it off, it won't start. If I let it sit for about 10 minutes it will start right up. It seems like the battery isn't charging or something. It was running fine until last night. I was told that maybe a wire is loose on the starter. Can someone help me?

This is the Limited model with the automatic climate control. Last year, one of the wire connections on the heater resistor burned up, and the fan quit working. I took the resistor out, took it apart, and re-soldered the connection. It worked fine for about 9 months, then the heater stopped blowing hot air. It still blows OK, but the air is cold. (During the 9 months, the radiator sprung a leak, engine overheated, and the head gaskets blew out. I had a different engine and a new radiator put in. The heater was still working for awhile after that.)

I have the base LX sedan, SPI engine, auto transmission, 85,000 miles.

I have changed plugs/wires/coil/PCV/checked for vaccum leaks and found none/changed EGR valve/DPFE(EGR) sensor/used fuel injection cleaner/changed fuel filter and still no improvements.

You can floor it and it refuses to accelerate at first but slowlp picks up steam and moves after a few seconds. It stumbles badly upon acceleration and goes through 1/4 tank of gas in <20 miles.

Ayy suggestions what else to check? I would suspecting the catalytic converter (maybe) but there is no sulfur smell/smoke from the exhaust that is abnormal...

I need to pass emissions this weekend too. Thanks :)

Could it possibly be a sheared pin on the flywheel?
