I just had fuel inject replaced. Now the car is stahling out at every start.. Possibly b/c it's not warmed up?? It doesn't putter, just quits, then hesitates outta control, as if it were coughing and hacking up something. But it's no putter. Where could this clog (if that's what it even is) be? What are the possible problems I'm looking at? Thanks for your help!

I just got my car back from the dealership from having some work done and an oil change and my tires rotated. They gave me the receipt that said that my brakes are 50% worn in the front and 70% worn in the rear. They haven't squeeled or anything but when I first got in my car it sounded like they were grinding a little but then it stopped so I figured it was from where they rotated the tires. Do you think if they are worn 50 and 70% they will last another month? My sister told me the pads are only about $60 or so, is this true?

i have a 1995 dodge neon just replace the coil pack and the spark plugs because there was a rough idle the spark plugs alone made a big difference for the past month now the spuddering is back im not sure if it would more likely be the plug wires the injectors or the fuel filter its a 5 speed and yes i know how to drive a standard sometimes when you take off it will start to lope and sound like its only hitting on 2 cylinders and only want to idle at about 300rpms until you slam on the gas then after a few seconds it takes off shut it off and it will start back normally after setting a few minutes then after you start to drive it about 2 or 3 blocks it starts it again ive rechecked the plugs they look normal just wondering if anyone has had the same problem and if they have any adives, im not looking for some smart *** remark about the fact that i drive a neon either, thank you

How can i remove them safely without damaging my origina paint or the finish? i heard of using rubbing compound but they say its not good since they remove the finishing coat (the are will be dull). what can i use to emove the paints?

Its been leaking forever with fluid drippin on passenger side by the front tire about (8-10 inches in) with multiple drip spots forming one puddle and for the life of me i cannot locate the source of the leak. after running it will stop leaking in about 5 min. And with the engine cold when I add more fluid and top it off it will leak for a little. then stop till i start it back up. I know its not the water pump or bypass hose the leak seems to be more towards the firewall. I've also just noticed with the engine running there's a steady mist of coolant that is spraying up from down there kinda from under the alternator/power steering pump area i dunno if its the serpintine belt throwing it up but any hoses i see are'nt leaking. I read about freeze plugs could that be it? Anybody know how many there are? and is it possible to fix with a standard set of tools and a small budget? But it's F***ed up I have a leak going down and one going up that i can't route!
