When my car is parked, is it bad to lift the windshield whippers up in the air so that they do not get caught under the snow and the window is easier to clean off

I have been having problems with my hearter working it comes on and works for a minute then stops. It doesnt blow anything when it stops. I decided to check my coolant and when I opened up the overflo tank it looked really nasty inside so i stuck my finger in and when i took it out, it was it was greasy and nasty. Id this mean surely that my head gasket is bad. It has not over heated so I dont know why this happened. Please help...

I just bought a 1991 Mazda navajo and lately it has been hard to shift from neutral to first. It just gets a little stuck and you have to push hard to get into 1st gear. Once in any gear it runs great but getting there is a little sticky. Will replacing and changing the transmission fluid work or is there a bigger problem i should be worried about?

okso heres the deal. When I start my car/truck (whatever you wanna call it) there is a knocking noise coming from under my hood. And dont go away until I start to drive. Then when i start to drive it fades away a bit to a kind of clicking that can barely be heard but goes with the speed i am driving. Then when i turn a sharp corner there is a rattling what could these be. It drives fine has no problem starting up just all these noises are comming. I took it into the repair shop today and they said they think its a bad or broken flywheel but dont know cause they are not a trans. shop and refeared me to one. I called them and he says by what i am describing that is not what it is. ANYONE!!!!! Please help. What would a broken or bad flywheel sound like if that was the case??? What could it be????

my weatherstripping came off on half of the windshield, but I didnt have any water leaks. it just looks trashy so I bought the recommended glue and tried sealing the rubber but it looks AWFUL. the rubber lost its elasticity and so the top corner doesn't reach all the way over the window. that black glue got everywhere, all over the glass and some on my paint. the weatherstripping looks like its not even sealed all the way.

in other words, it looks redneck!!! I did clean the rubber before applying the glue, did everything the guy at the shop told me to do.

I'm about to get a new windshield installed if this can't be fixed in some other way..... I just don't have $200 to do this.

is it possible to have the windshield removed, get all the old weatherstripping stripped off, and get new weatherstripping back on and installed in my jeep? my windshield is in good condition so I don't need a new one.

what can I do??

Ok, so my car was having troubles starting on hills. And eventually wouldn't start, so i replaced the fuel filter.

Then a week later, the car wouldn't start again, it was water in the fuel lines, fixed that.

Now, it still has a hell of a time starting on hills.....is my fuel pump going?

If so, should i replace it with a new one or use, and how hard is it to replace?

I brought my minivan in to have 1-year old, top-of-the-line Yokohama tires balanced as I'd noticed a slight wobble. When they went to balance, they realized the problem was that the tires (2 of them, anyway) were splitting very badly around the bead where they connect to the rims - definitely faulty. They put on the one new tire they had in stock in my size, then replaced the other defective tire with my small spare (one of those 'doughnuts') and then told me it'd be 3 days before my new tires show up. I explained I have a 30 mile commute EACH WAY every day, so that I'd be putting 180 miles at least on the spare, but they didn't seem concerned.

Should I be worried about driving that far on this small spare?

I just bought a 2006 Pontiac G6 V6 a4 months ago. After about 2 months something happened. It says "engine power reduced" where my raido is and all of a sudden, while I'm driving, my car starts slowing down. I can be goin 65 on the highway and it will reduce to like 40mph! and if I am goin up a hill, sometimes I can't make it. I have to pull over and cut my car off and wait a while. One NIGHT I had to pull over 5 times before i got home. I've taken it to the shop 4 times (3 diff.places) and spent a lot of money. I just got it out today and it's doing it again. Someone may hit me from behind one day. Can someone help me???

I have checked all the fuses and they are all good except for the cigarette lighter fuse which blows every fuse I put in even if it is a higher amperage. The book shows nothing about the dash lights fuse. Can someone help me. Thanks in advance.
