Confirm the basics first: Does it have spark at the plugs? Does it have compression? Are the injectors firing with proper fuel pressure? One (or more) of these is failing you, and will instruct the correct diagnostic path. A trained...
Hi there - the next level of diagnostics are going to be required - specifically the ABS system. (Top level OBD II codes aren't enough here) I suspect you have a wheel speed sensor that is dirty or malfunctioning. These...
Hi there. Check the wiring to the gauge cluster and look for any broken or loose ground wires. If there is no wires loose, then check the body ground to the cab and see if its loose. A loose ground...
The manual transmission on your Jeep Wrangler has one of two problems. The shift boot may be getting in the way of the shifter, blocking it from going all the way into first. This could cause it to pop...
If you can hear the relay clicking, then you may have an issue with the starter. Starters often become tempermental before they fail altogether, so the trick is to diagnose it while it is in failure. If you can access...
Hi there. The issue is with your key fob to the vehicle. The key fob (remote) will need to be reprogrammed to the vehicle to access the doors when the ignition is turned off. If you need further assistance with...
There are several factors that can lead to a spongy brake pedal. When there is fluid loss, it could be caused by a faulty caliper, bad wheel cylinder, leaking master cylinder, or even a ruptured line. Things can get a...
Hello, thank you for writing in. If both headlights have gone out at the same time, its unlikely the issue is a bulb problem. You may want to start by checking the fuses first. There is also a relay that...
Your message says A-Body, but your request says Camaro, which is an F-Body. Since you've got a 4L60E, I'm going to assume your vehicle is indeed a Camaro (A-Body vehicles are FWD). Pressure in park and neutral for your Camaro...
Hi Darryll. Thanks for submitting your question today. It's rather unlikely that the coolant flush itself is causing the misfire. However, if during the coolant flush an ignition system component or even a fuel injector harness was accidentally moved, this...
If the original pump had a cover over the electrical, the new one should also have a cover over any electrical components. It may be possible to remove the other encasement from the original fuel pump and use it to...
Hi there. Quite often a mechanic shop can miss issues like this - especially when they are trying to get cars in and out of service in their busy shops. However, if the brake pads are good and rotors have...
The first thing to check for is air leaks. Any air that gets into the engine without going through the air mass meter to be measured will cause the fuel/air mix to be leaner. For that or some other reason,...
There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of possible causes for the check engine light to come on. The only real way to know what has caused the light to come on is to pull the diagnostic trouble codes with...
In order to remove the inner tie rods you have to use a tool to bend back the lock tabs that hold it locked in place. Once the lock tab is bent back then the remover tool can loosen the...
The suspension is unloaded, and thus out of it's usual running position, when the weight is off the springs. It's possible that a rubber isolator moved or some like change occurred as the car was in the air and while...
This sounds like you have a bad clutch or transmission input shaft is not turning for some reason. You should have the transmission removed to have the transmission and clutch checked to isolate the cause of the no clutch engagement....
Be sure the battery is fully charged. "New" batteries are not necessarily fully charged at time of sale. Of course, confirm that the engine immobilizer system (security system) is not activated. With the key held in the "start" position, you...
Coolant leaks can originate from a few different places. A pressure check of the cooling system can be performed, subjecting the entire system to higher-than-normal pressures under controlled circumstances to find weak points. Leaks could be coming from hoses, hose...
Engine oil is vital to the operation of your car. If the oil level drops too low, or if the pressure cannot be maintained, then the engine isn’t being properly lubricated and severe damage could result. If the Oil Pressure...
The model of vehicle is missing on this one. The most likely cause is the pump shaft seal or the reservoir to tank seal. Otherwise, the lines could be leaking. I recommend having a qualified mechanic inspect your vehicle, locate...
