Maintenance & Repairs - December 2007

After I got out, it was harder to turn the wheel. I thought it was just a bunch of snow in the wheel well. It had a lot of snow, so I cleared it all out, but It's still hard to turn.

What did I do?

anyone heard of silencer pads for the backing plates? There is a Ford TSB #15-10-5 on it, but my Ford dealer can't find the part # for them. It seems that you glue some sort of material to your backing plates to stop the noise, The dealer told me to get all new Ford shoes for $116.00. Any other tricks that my work?

Anyways I hit a curb very hard and managed to bend my lower control arm on the passenger side. Incredibly idiotic, I know. Anyways, im currently trying to replace the control arm, but ive run into a bit of a dillema. I noticed that the openings the bushings go into stretched out (up and down wise) as the control arm was forced to bend downward.

I was wondering if it would be still possible to replace the control arm, or if there was some way to straiten out the inlets. Thanks in advance, below is a diagram explanation of my problem. Am I royally screwed or can i salvage this?

An old friend did this. I just remembered and and was wondering if it's true. If it is, how does it make you get better gas mileage? Or even drive better?

I've changed everything.... Cat, distributor, wires, plugs, Coil, carburetor, filters. It goes for a half mile, then starts to lose power and shake. Pull over, wait a few seconds, then it accelerates like normal until it starts it all over again. I' ve changed everything... cat, filters, coil, wires, distributor, carburetor,... nothing changes. I squirt gas into the carb when on the road, makes no difference. '84 Dodge van.
I've put in a points distributor and wired it direct to the battery. No difference. The fuel pump puts out impressive pressure and volume. It squirts real well. I've shut the engine and pulled over and pulled the top of the carb and the fuel level is right up where it should be. Changed the float needle valve.
I've always been able to fix my mechanical problems.... not this one....

The car wont turnover. All it does is making a clicking sound. I bought a new starter n put it in but nothing happened. I got a new battery n put it in, but nothing happened. Our next thought is to replace some relay switches. Any ideas about tthe problems and any other possible solutions? Thanks to all that help.

We have a saab that has caused us problems ever since we got it. We took it into the shop about seven time (not joking) and they could never figure out what it was. Finally they figured out what it was and we just paid five hundred to get it fixed. My Husband was driving it today and the same problem started with it again other than this time he said it was a little different. It was smelling really bad. So he thinks it might be the transmittion along with what was happening before. We dont have that kind of money right now up front. the question is and this is probably a stupid one but would we be able to just trade it in for anything or would they just take it and not give us anything. Talking money wise for it. they said if it is the same problem they will fix it for free. PLEASE HELP!!!! just want to get rid of the peice of S***!!

I have a 97 Expedition and I replaced the alternator, but now it's misfiring. The spark plug wires are all tight and it seems like all the connections are good. I had the Check Engine light come on also. I took it to have the code scanned at AutoZone and it came back with a misfire code.
When I drove it before I replaced the alternator, It completely shutdown and the headlights went real low. Could this have messed up the computer in any way?
Thanks guys!
