Had a big leak in the van on the front of the crankshaft. Figured it was the seal, so replaced it. Still leaked lots. The oil was getting the timing belt slippery and slipping the water pump roller so it would overheat the engine.
Neighbour mechanic said it was coming from the front crankshaft cover. Is this likely??

My automatic 95 cutlass all the sudden decided it didn't wanna shift gears. but I could do it manually. I've changed the filter and fluid but its got worse. now it mostly doesn't change even manually. but sometimes it'll be fine for a sec and when the gears shift the speedometer starts workin again.

What's the best software for old car restoration? I'm looking for something that is good for more than time, budget, and materials planning. Maybe something that will conceptualize what things like different grills, and rims would look like. Is there something like that?

I just got a new radiator about a year ago for my BMW, and everytime i drive my car it is over heating? Anybody know why the gauges go into the red instead of staying in the middle?

I put Anti Freeze in it everyday pretty much and by the end of the day it's gone?

I have a 1992 Ford Ranger. It has no power, studders taking off, and is getting very bad gas mileage. I have replaced the air filter, spark plugs, wires, the ignition coils, muffler, and the catalytic converter. The wires are not crossed... I need someone with experience to let me know what are some more possibilities on what is causing this.

Thanks

My 2003 Pontiac Sunfire won't start. The car will turnover but not start. Anyways, I believe it is the fuel pump. Is it easier to buy the repair kit and repair the current fuel pump or should I buy a whole new fuel pump? What's the difference?

Thanks in Advance!

I have a 2000 mazda 626 it still starts and if i start it in a gear it will drive in that gear. I was thinking maybe its a spring problem because when i pull it about halfway up the spring pulls it back up.

I am wanting to replace the stock fuel injectors. However, I was wondering if buy a larger fuel injector would lower my mpg or if it would increase my mpg? All information regarding fuel injectors and how they get clogged and fuel economy will be greatly appreciated.

I have a 2001 ford Escape with a v6 and is a 4x4. The check engine light is on even after I changed an oxygen sensor that Auto Zone diagnosed was the problem and they used their ob2 reader. The code was a P1511. My car gets horrible gas mileage and is gutless. It also idles irratically when I pull up to a stop sign. It also shifts awkward now. It will shift into a higher gear for example when Im driving up a hill instead of a lower gear to get the RPMs up and and it will kind of bog down until I press the accelerator to get it to shift and get my RPMs up again. Why didn't my check engine light go off and why is my car still acting this way. What can I do to fix this without taking it in to the dealer cuase Im kind of broke. Anyones help is greatly appreciated. thanks

I'm not sure if it's a fuse or actual light bulb.
