This kit will come with instructions,and you can also buy some freon with dye in it. You'll need a blacklight/infared light and some yellow glasses. They'll have all that stuff there,might be put up in the back but they have it. If you do all that,it still doesn't work and you can't find the...

Most of the time it is simply out of freon. Don't assume a leak,if you've not serviced it in awhile then that would explain it. If the system drops pressure enough the pressure switch will break the circuit to keep the compressor from cycling on and damaging the compressor. You can unplug the...

Yes. You will effectively be raising your final drive ratio with the taller tires and adding more rotating mass to the final drive. You will lose torque in the ratio and acceleration by adding the mass. The lift will make your aerodynamics suck also,and AT's or knobbys suck for cornering...

The coolant leak is probably at the rear of the intake. I'm betting it doesn't leak out while running either. It leaks into the engine causing misfires,and when you shut it off and the motor cools-metal contracts and it leaks out onto the ground without the engine vacuum helping suck it in...

When the check engine light flashes,that means the engine is experiencing type "A" misfires. Type A misfires are misfires bad enough to cause internal physical damage to the engine or destroy the catlytic convertor. The most common misfire is a type B misfire,and will simply cause the misfire...

Lol,exactly what I did with my 92 2dr. Not anywhere near finished with it,haven't finished dressing up the new "bedrails" from the cut or welded the tailgate shut. He is entirely correct about it being a little goofy looking and too tall. After you cut the back half off and take the glass...

As I read,your describing the problem my wifes car has been exhibiting. I've eliminated the starter,starter relay,battery and alt with a multimeter but the problem stopped before I could test furthur. I did eliminate enough for me to narrow it down to either a relay that I know will be in the...

for combustion all you need is FAST Fuel was taken care of by spraying the fluid in there Air-i'm assuming their is airflow through the intake and out the exhaust Spark-you said you have spark Timing- Is it incorrect? If you have a timing chain issue that would throw off timing,so would...

The friction modifier is added with the differential fluid,it is for the positraction in the rear end. Amsoil is a great product,pricey as hell but worth it if you keep vehicles forever. You usually won't notice alot of difference out of a different oil,most of the differences will be in...

If you have a ditch you can straddle the ditch,or if you have a curb you can park on it at an angle with one wheel on curb and one on street/yard.. You could get some ramps or just jack it up(use jackstands) but don't do that on an incline-always safety first. For trans fluid change,you will...

Jdouc,check the drive gear at the bottom of the dist. You need to get it on a scanner and view PIDS while driving to verify it's not a fueling issue. pull the plugs and see if any are fouled out and you might narrow it down to a single cylinder. Any shop that reads a multiple misfire...

Get your battery tested. If it is the alt,then it will be under warranty. Get both tested at most auto parts stores for free.

dump question,but did you change the fuel filter with the new pump? Alot of times the pump is incorrectly diagnosed when the fuel filter is restricted. A restricted filter will cause a pump of these design to wear quickly when they try to pump through a restriction. Check to make sure your...

doh! sorry,was up way to late last night. cyl 1 is on the driver side on chevy,I haven't had my head under my projects in so long i've lost my mind. That's what being a Ford tech with a GM hobby will do to you :D

Just thought I would mention this,so if it comes up. The cigarette lighter powers the DLC,so that blown fuse was why the scanner wouldn't work. But a blown fuse doesn't cause a CEL. More than likely what happened is you pulled all the fuses looking at them for a blown one? If so then you...

Whatever you use,don't use bosch platinum anything,they're a misfire in a box. One look at the electrode(or lack thereof) and you'll see why. I use stock delco's or autolite platinums. Curiously enough i'm really liking the autolite's. I file back the ground strap to unshroud the plug and...

just some info for the masses. Bank 1 on an OBDII vehicle is always the bank with cylinder 1,coincedentally this always falls on passenger side of Ford and Chevy firing orders. Bank 2 is the other bank. Each bank has it's own Sensor 1 Each catlytic convertor has it's own sensor 2 If you...

If you have dropped a cell in the battery then it will cause all sorts of wackiness like this usually,so get it checked first. Take it to a shop otherwise,if you have no electrical experience it could be too much. Your regulator could be allowing your alternator to overcharge,but the...

Thanks for the welcome. :D Basically you just take the motor off,and run the lines OUT from master cylinder to the corresponding IN line on the combo valve. IIRC,one line is larger than the other so you can't mix them up. Then you cut the original line from the pass front and put it into...

Just throwing in my experience since I mess with TPMS often,though not on GM(on Ford). The TPMS sensors don't really care what PSI the tire is,they only care what PSI difference there is between the tires. For instance on a Ford you can have 20psi in each tire and no light. But if you have 20...
