Hi there. If the bolt is stripped out and the treads to the bolt are in the head of the engine, then remove the bolt and look at it. Most likely the threads in the head are stripped out. You...
When an engines rotation speed increases the speed should increase. If it isn't, then there is likely an issue with the torque converter (an automatic transmissions clutch). If the speed is increasing, it could be an issue with the cruise...

Hi there. Sounds to me that your vehicle's top is a bit off track. This is the same concept as a window being off its track. It will neither close or open all the way. To ensure precise diagnosis, have...
