I drove my car to work this morning, and it worked just fine. After work, I got in the car and tried to start it and nothing happened. (NOTE: I UNLOCKED THE CAR WITH THE KEYLESS REMOTE) You could barely see any lights on the dash. I got the car jumped and I drove it home. Once home, I turned the car off and tried to start it again. Nothing. So, I took the battery to Auto Zone and the battery tested GOOD. The Auto Zone guy told me to test the alternator by taking of the positive battery cable while the car is running. If the car cuts off, then the alternator is bad. Well, I tried this and the car stayed on! My mom noticed before she jumped the battery that when she pressed down on the top of the battery where the water goes, the car would come on! We put water in the battery but still the car wouldn't start. After jumping yet again, I let it run for about twenty minutes, cut it off, and now it starts right back up. Could it be the alternator or a bad connection??

When I run the fan in my car without the AC turned on, I get this scent that smells like vinegar and smelly feet. I understand that this may be due to mold in the system. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get rid of this odor?

I have a 1998 ford mondeo 2.0 whose gearbox is burn out caused by the leakage of gearbox. The garage told me that it will cost me 1200 pounds to fix it. That's very expensive for me. I find a used gearbox from Internet, but there's no one garage which is willing to replace it with my gearbox. Can I replace it by myself or it's too difficult for me ? thanks.

I scraped against another car and got the other car's paint off of mine but some of the paint from my car got scraped off from the accident, not from me removing the other car's paint. Anything I can do to touch up the areas where the paint is missing, without paying a lot at a body shop?

Can someone please explain IN DETAIL how synchronizers and blocker rings make the rpms of the collar and engaging gear the same? When you shift up why do the rpms decrease? Is it because it is a heavier load on the engine? Why do the rpms of the rpms increase when you shift down? Is it beacuse it is a lighter load on the engine? Can someone please answer this IN DETAIL. I have been searching for months.

I always drove a car cautiously with a little usage of air conditioner and stereo system and I draw a conclusion of my experience by doing that would save gas usage to drive 4 days and get gas instead of 3 days and get gas. Is it true? If not true then what makes a car run out of gas quick for 3 days driving as stated above?

how do you PROPERLY check your engine oil? i had my engine oil changed a month ago by a shop and right when they finished they showed me on the oil stick that it was at max. but now whenever i check myself it doesnt show at one specific place where its says "max" but it shows very lightly all over the oil stick. i have tried to go driving and check it, doesnt show clearly. i have tried to start up for 5 mins then check, but still the same. i have tried to start up then put in neutral and check but still the same results. any advice?

I know it sounds like a dumb question but my husband is a mechanic and he keeps on slipping on oil spots. We want to find some shoes that won't slip very easily under those conditions. Any mechanics out there know a thing or two about this?

My 1992 Ford Ranger failed the emissions test due to HCs being above the limit. HC (ppm) limit is 160 and I was at 256. CO and NOx were well within limits. The check engine light's been on for the past 10,000 miles or so and I've had a pretty significant loss of power for about that long - the engine just feels sluggish. Any idea what I can do to fix this without spending a fortune on a mechanic?
