Thanks for inquiring about your vehicle. A collision specialist needs to examine the vehicle and YourMechanic does have specialists who could perform a mobile examination and arrange repairs. To save you some money initially you might attempt to contact a...
Hi there. Anytime the coolant system is worked on, a professional mechanic should verify the service steps with the manufacturer's service guide. This will help them determine the right steps to complete the coolant bleeding - if it's mandated by...
Your check engine light may come on for many different reasons such as a faulty mass air flow sensor, a faulty O2 sensor, a bad catalytic converter, bad spark plugs or wires and many other reasons. Unfortunately due to the...
The voltage supplying the bulb can be checked. If the voltage is too high, that can shorten bulb life. If the voltage is acceptable, and the light bulbs are failing prematurely your only option really is to use a different...
Your car’s brakes are the most important safety system onboard. They’re hydraulic, which means they require fluid in order to operate. When you press the brake pedal, fluid is sent from the master cylinder through the brake lines to the...
Hello. If I am not mistaken, that vehicle does not use a carburetor for the fuel system, that does not really matter though. If your vehicle is only starting when you add some sort of fuel, and not on it's...
The two windows are different. You should have the computer tested to see if the computer stored codes for the poor gas mileage problem so it can be diagnosed. You may have bad O2 sensors.
Your description of the lack of oil tells me your engine is probably already badly damaged. The main problem is you drove it home with the problems you have described. The only way to save a motor from damage when...
You should first have the engine checked for any leaks and the PCV system serviced. Then make sure a paper style factory air filter is used. Use the correct oil and then document exactly how much oil is used per...
Hi there. The 1993 Northstar intake is made of magnesium, and has a different system for "blowout" or backfiring protection. It has been used by some folks who have had bad experiences with the "plastic" intake manifolds. There will be...
I found one on EBAY in Australia (90919-05010) but the seller won't ship it to the U.S. If it were the left side you wouldn't be having this problem because the left side sensor is identical for both CA and...
If the battery is new and fully charged, and you turn the key to the "start" position and you hear nothing that means that either the starter circuit supplying the starter motor (ignition switch, wiring, relay, fuse, etc.) has a...
You may have a failing voltage regulator that could be allowing the alternator to supply too much or too little amperage to the battery resulting in the battery never maintaining a consistent charge as it is designed to. The voltage...
It sounds like you may have a weak battery, a failing voltage regulator or failing alternator. As you may know, the alternator charges the battery while the engine runs by generating amperage and recharging the battery while the engine turns...
The crankshaft damper may have a loose bolt and is what's causing the lower timing chain gear to be loose. The gear pin may shear and cause the no start or loss of power. However, if this is not the...
Based on the information you gave, there could be several potential causes, including an engine misfire, faulty fuel pump, or a vacuum leak. You didn't mention if your Check Engine Light is on, but I feel it is likely to...
The turn signals use fuse number 6 in interior fuse box and have a seperate flasher from the hazards. If the hazards work then the turn signals should work. You should check fuse for power at fuse box and flasher...
I have seen some flywheels that after the resurface is done and the clutch and pressure plate is installed the bolts will bottom out and not fully seat the pressure plate. This will cause the clutch to not disengage all...
You can very easily make a hands-free phone call using your voice recognition system, as long as your phone is paired: 1. Press the voice command button. 2. When the system says “Ready”, and then offers a tone, say “Call”...
To start, computers, aka PCM (powertrain control modules) rarely fail. They are complex units that require many different inputs to initiate the desired response. Having replaced your PCM already, you may have already traded in your old PCM as a...
