Just wondering, as i have forgotten to turn the power knife switch off several times. I think the only risk was shorting the engine, but not sure.

I have a 1991 Suzuki Escudo (like a sidekick) and one of the dashboard warning lights occasionally comes on for a very short period of time, and then goes off again, and I don't know what it means. It looks sort of like a round rectangle with blips at the sides and three wavy lines coming up from the top. (Engine light maybe?) I bought the car used, and the owner no longer had the owner's manual, so I am not sure what the light means. Does anyone know what the different symbols on the dashboard mean? Because the car is old and has been driven often on extremely rough roads, it seems as though it might just be a wiring issue - some of the other lights in the car also occasionally do/don't work or come off and on. Thanks!

It is lodged there and does not seem to be coming out or being pushed in any further. Do you think that it needs immediate attention (possibly a change of tyre)?

85 Chevy FullSized Blazer (Suburban) 6.2 Diesel

OK, so I was at the gas station, just finished filling up and I went to open the door to get back out to double check i had put the gas cap back on. As I did, a HUGHE wind gust from this insanely stupid storm front moving through riped the door out of my hand and flung it foward to hard it bent the hinges i think, not it doesn't hit the little stud right and wont close, its offset, and I am really pissed about it.

Any ideas on the best way to fix this and if I can avoid having it done at a shop?

I have a honda accord (95) and decided to give it a service - spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, oil & oil filter, cleaned up the brakes & calipers, & replaced the brake fluid.

The first thing I did was the engine flush which meant running the car at a fast idle for 15 mins. I then did the rest of the service, but when I finished and went to start the car it won't start. The fuel filter is full, but it just won't spark at all.

What could I possibly have done that would cause it to not spark? (The battery is fine).

I just let them put whatever they have in when I get my oil changed. But today I got Penzzoil (sp) High-mileage and my car has 107 thousand miles. Does the type of oil you get really make a difference? Did I make a right choice in getting this oil? I rather ask you guys than try and get scammed out of my money "ohh thats best thats what u need yes.. it costs alot more but go get it you wont regret it"
