I just picked my car up from having my gas tank replaced in my Volvo. I was getting a reading that i had a minor leak. I went to fill my gas tank up after picking my car up and my gas gauge will not go higher than just under a half a tank. I am pretty sure I filled it up...

How alarmed should I be?

The blower for the air coditioner was not blowing air. I checked the fuse (it was fine) and replaced the Motor Blower Resistor. It still does not work. Someone suggested the air conditioning needed recharging. How does one go about doing that or does it have to be taken to a mechanic?

I have a 1993 Ford Explorer and I am having trouble keeping it running after I crank it. It starts then hiccups and dies. When I punch the gas it will start completly and stays running but it idles at 500-1000 RPM and is a little rough. Any idea what it may be or how to fix it?

Just tiled my kitchen floor and now my radiator sits 1 inch higher then before and I can not hook it back up to the pipe + valve. There is absolutely no play in the pipe. Are there different heights of valves available or how could I raise the pipe about an inch?
Thank you in advance for your information.

Please help.
