Got the reverse lights working on the 92 Cavalier. This car is a manual transmission car so it has a backup lamp switch. I had power to the switch but when I back probed the connector with it plugged in, I had no power coming out of the switch going to the lights. I unplugged the connector...

The owner's manual for my 2014 Honda Rancher ATV recommends a conventional oil even though Honda sells a synthetic oil for motorcycles and ATVS. I tried the full synthetic in it when it was fairly new and I had more engine noise and ticking. I later went with another brand semi-synthetic and...

I got the 92 Cavalier running today. Yesterday I got the pump put in the tank and got everything hooked up and plugged in. Went to start it and could not hear the pump come on and the car would not start. I got back under the car and unhooked the wiring harness where it plugs into the...

I've heard good things about Kenny Owens but have not used him. I've heard good things about Eaglecrest Automotive in Nixa and have several friends that use them. I use a place close to where I live if I need anything done but I do most of my own work so I rarely take my vehicles anywhere...

I prefer vehicles without turbos. We currently have three Ford Superdutys in the family that have turbos. One is a 2017 with only 36,000 miles so no turbo problems yet but has had several other electrical problems. A 2004 SD that was bought new and it lost the turbo early on in its life under...

The transmission in my fiance's 94 Cavalier failed last week. It's an automatic with about 182,000 miles on it. She got the car with about 57,000 miles on it and I've done two transmission services during that time, the last one about 16,000 miles ago. Inside the pan was clean each time with...

Nothing today but have been working on a 92 Cavalier that my fiancé used to drive before she bought the 94 Cavalier that was her work commute car for almost 10 years. Last week the transmission went out on the 94 so we went to get this 92 that has been stored in the garage of a house that I own...

You live in my area. I live in a small town 30 miles west of Springfield. Just out of curiosity, what shop did you send her to?

I picked up both sets of these at a local flea market last year for $5 for each set. Made in the USA.

I found a set of SAE and Metric made in the USA Craftsman nut drivers at a flea market last year for cheap. I use them occasionally, especially the 8mm one for use on worm style hose clamps.

Not yet. I've been busy working on a car and now the weather is crap.

I bought one the other day. The local hardware store had the kit with the battery and charger on sale for $199. It normally is $229.

I used this for the first time yesterday and it worked very well. The magnet is very strong and I had no problem taking the drain plug out once I broke it loose.

I just looked at one today at the local hardware store. They had it on sale for $199 with a battery. I will probably pick it up before the sale ends.

I just bought this exact tool a couple of weeks ago from Amazon. Still waiting to use it.

I have Hagerty for my 1970 Monte Carlo. I didn't have to send in any photos of the car. I have only been with them for a couple of years.

I ordered both sizes of these the other day after seeing this post. I should get them today. Thanks for posting these.

Yes, the 7.4L only had 290 HP but had 410 ft lbs of torque for the vortec version.

My fiancé's 2017 Ford F150 with the 5.0L/ six speed auto/3.73 rear gears gets 18-21 mpg.

My 98 K1500 with the same drivetrain and rear gears as yours but with stock 265/75/16 tires get 14-15 mpg on average with 17 being the best it ever got on a long trip over 20 years ago. I also have a 98 K3500 with the 7.4L/ 4L80E/4.10 gears/ 245/75/16 tires and it gets around 10-13 mpg unloaded...
