Our car automatic Toyota Corola 1999 was parked near the shop by my wife. When she started the car afterwards – it gave very high revs. She did not re-start it and switched to reverse. The car JUMPED backwards and hit another parked car.
A few months ago i bought this car and about a month later the battery light started coming on. Finally on a trip the light started coming on it was like everything kept dimming down , so we replaced the alternator/regulator is built in and it didnt help the problem. (but i drive it like that). The light still comes on and every now and then it does that dimming thing.
I was driving my 1994 Volvo stationwagon at about 35
mph and it just stopped. The check engine light came
on first and then all other lights. after about 5
attempts to restart and then a push, it was able to
start back up. I took it to my mechanic and he
changed the fuel pump relay. I drove it home and
after a couple days it happened again. I took it back
and then he replaced the fuel pump and i got charged
$860.00 for the whole job.
My wife drives a 1991 Honda Accord. Great little car. Still runs great. It has one serious problem which it has had for several years now. The battery rapidly drains when the car sits for a couple of days. I replaced the alternator and battery each more than once to no avail. I used an amp meter to check drains on various cables while removing fuses and relays, one at a time.
