I have an 05' Jeep Wrangler. I was told NOT to run in through the car wash drive thru. So, if I hand wash my Jeep, I'm I able to wet and wash the vinyl top to? Also, i heard NOT to touch the top with any kind of Armor All. Any suggestions?

It seems to fail/stall only when it is hot but will re-start when allowed to rest. The pump relay module has been changed too. I wonder if there is a tropicalised version of these parts. My last fuel pump didn't even last one year. I wonder if I am also getting imitation BOSCH parts. The Mercedes outlet says it is genuine BOSCH. Is there a built-in heater in the pump for freezing weather say in Europe? or are the models different for other parts of the world?

So I have a 2002 Dodge Neon with 50,000 miles.
The yellow , I'm assuming check engine, light comes on periodically, and I'll start driving and it'll jerk. Sometimes, it'll shut off.
Also, before it does that, it'll take longer then usual to start. I'll need to crank it for a good 2 seconds before it turns over.
Any idea what it might be?

I realize that that some welding will be needed to be done so that the engine can be mounted on the frame but is this possible, ive been told it is. The thing of it is, is that the engine I have now, a 472 V8 that it was made with is running but has a bad knock and a terrible noise, and a rebuild will cost close to $4000 so I need to find a smaller engine that will drive well and work for the car while i work on it. And not sure if I will need a different transmission if i get a different engine too.

I have plenty of air moving, so I know it's not the motor. The air gets above the temperature outside at best, maybe enough to keep the windows from turning to complete ice.

I have plenty of fluid in the radiator and reserve tank. So my question is, is it the heater core? I have almost no time to take apart an entire dash and reassemble, and I have no other vehicle options. On top of that, I have no money, leaving a shop out of the option.

Could it be clogged, can that be cleaned WITHOUT tearing apart my car? I look forward to any help, thank you.

I was listening to the radio in my 1997 F-150 4.2L 6 cyl truck for about ten minutes tonight without the engine running. I went to start it, but it didn't have the juice. I got a jump from some lady, but I noticed that even though the engine was running, the red battery problem light was on. I was one mile from home, and the entire time the headlights were getting more and more dim. Also, the lights that indicate problems with various parts of the truck started to turn on. By the time I made it home, my engine was acting sluggish, the lights were off completely, all the engine problem lights were on and a beeping noise was coming out of the dash. As I pulled into my driveway, the engine stalled and turned off.

I haven't had any problems with my battery before this, and with my small knowledge of cars, it seems like the alternator died. What do you think?

Cars in the old days and newer cars with a distributor ignition system, how do you timed these things? and How often do you have to do that and why?

I drive a Mitsubishi Magna and have popped a tyre. I dont have a key for the lock nuts on the wheels and was wondering if there is a cheap option to getting them off (prefer not to pay a mechanic hundreds). I am female and completely car illiterate, so keep it in simple terms for me :) If anyone know someone that could fix it cheap in Perth, Australia that would be awesome!
