I have the choice of getting a LL 1 yr 105 amp alternator, or a lifetime alternator for my 92 Cavalier 3.1 MP. The price difference is significant ( like $30). Can anyone tell me with the cheaper one if they go out after about a yr or so? Depending on the feedback I get to this question, I will determine which one to get. I am a tightwad.

For some reason lately, my remote starter/door lock will stop working for a few hours, then suddenly start working again. I changed the battery in the actual remote, that has not helped. I'm not sure why it would work, then stop working for hours, then suddenly start working again fine. What do you think it could be? Thanks!

I think i am going to have to change the fuel pump on my RRC. I went to start it today after being off roading yesterday, it started first thing and then spluttered to a hault. I tried starting a good few times again, the starter motor was turning but i couldn't get it to fire up. There was NO smell of petrol and i couldn't hear the normal noise of the pump running. Do you think this is defo the problem? If so is the pump located in the tank??

Cheers
Martin

I have a 98 Chevy Cavalier standard and I believe the clutch has gone out but I'm not sure. I cannot go pass 1st or 2nd. And right as that happened I was driving and couldn't shift and the engine would rev up but the car would go faster. If anyone know what the exact problem is and about how much that would cost, I'd appreciate it.

Some coworkers are of the opinion that if you continuously run your fuel tank on your car/truck low, that this negatively affects your fuel pump.

For those of you who know about such things, is this true? Does it hurt the pump, or anything else, if you tend to drive a few days with your Low Fuel light ("dummy light") on before you gas up?

My car shuts of randomly and takes a while to start back up again. The mechanic said it was a "conduction problem" with the computer and told me I had to replace the entire computer in the car.
Do such problems really happen with cars?
