In the last 8 months, I had to replace brake pads, replace the battery, and replace the engine. All of these happened with no warning. No light to warn me. Just happened.

:I've got a 1992 GMC 1500 2WD with a V6 4.3L in it that just doesn't stir the koolaid, if you know what I mean. I'd like something that makes my truck fun to drive. I'm going to guess that my little V6 puts out about 150HP and about the same in TQ, and by no means does that pin me to the seat. I went down to the GMC dealership today and asked about engine swaps...they told me it was going to be about $11k to buy/install the engine, and the engine we were talking about was definitely no monster, either. Every shop I've called where I live doesn't do engine swaps. Anybody ever replaced a V6 with a nice V8 in the kind of truck I have? I've also been curious about emissions laws...I've heard that the MVD doesn't care what engine is in the vehicle, it has to pass emissions based on what was originally in the truck. What about that? I'm willing to replace the transmission and need to replace the rear end, if that helps at all.

2002 Chrysler Town and Country Mini Van with 68,000 miles.
The engine would start to stall and shut down when I put the A/C on. The minute I shut off the A/C everything was ok. There was also a burning smell.

I was researching online, and I found a place that has the following listing:

3.1L 189cid V6 MFI (T) : Transmission-Automatic : Kick Down Solenoid
The details were:
STANDARD MOTOR PRODUCTS Part # TCS20 {TRANSMISSION CONTROL SOLENOID}
Front Wheel Drive; Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid

This is my engine size. Is this the part I am looking for? Or is it a related part? Or possibly a larger component that contains my part?

Any help you can give me would be extremely helpful!

I just bought a 1989 Camry and I've noticed that whenever I drive over bumps w/ the front two tires, it would make a very loud thump when the tires land, the back tires don't make this thump though.
My questions are:
1) Are the front shocks the problem here? or is it something else? How can I know for sure? Are there any tests I can do to check?

2) If the shocks need to be replaced, should I just go ahead & replace all 4 of the shocks? or just the 2 front ones?

3) Could anyone give me an estimate of how much it would cost? (I was quoted a total of $250 for replacing two front shocks)

I just replaced my radiator because of a leak. Now when i drive in slow or stop traffic, the thermostat rises above half-way. There is no smoke coming out of the hood, and no leaks. What can be wrong with it? Is it the fan or the thermostat?
