I have a 1996 Chrysler LHS. My check engine light came on and the code that came up was 66 meaning PCM is not receiving CCD Bus signals. I know what PCM means but cannot find anything that mentions CCD Bus signals. Can you help?
I have a 1975 Chevrolet nova and i replaced the battery a week ago. When i go to start it nothing works and the connections to the battery are fine, today i tried to jump start it and the same thing happened, nothing. before I put in this battery it would jump start with the old one too. Today I also checked the fuses and I didn’t see anything wrong. But i cant take it anywhere because I’m painting it right now but i don’t want to mess up my new engine by not starting it.
Hi, I’d just like to thank in advance for any help you can offer. I own a 91 Mustang GT, with a very modified 5.0 motor. It has aftermarket heads, cam, intake, injectors, mass air meter, etc…I could list parts for hours. The car has a persistent misfire at part-throttle that seems to be getting worse. The car will start breaking up, audible through the exhaust, and buck and jerk violently. Heavier throttle inputs (not WOT) will usually be met with a bogging-down and heavy loss of power, occasionally an exhaust backfire, and then a normal, hard pull after anywhere from 2-5 seconds. The camshaft I run has a lot of overlap, but the driveability problems posed by the camshaft clear up at approximately 1600 rpms, beyond this range, the misfire becomes very noticeable.
I have a 1974 Chevy K20, 14 bolt open rear differential. I have replaced the axle bearings, seals, and fluid. No metal particles were found in old fluid. when I turn Right. the inside or Right tire spins at the same rate, as if there was a locker.. also when I back up and turn Left. the Left inside tire does the same thing… but neither seems to do it going the opposite direction. This started a week ago, and doing the above work had no effect on the condition.
I have a 1996 Ford Taurus 3.0L V6, I just replaced the transmission(it was stuck in 2ND gear) and replaced the thermostat. Every time I turn off the key after driving all my coo lent spills out. People have told me its vapor locked, but i know it will only vapor lock in the weather heat, but its been like 40 degrees high where I live.
I have a 1994 Buick LeSabre Custom whit 66K on it. I had been off the road for two years (although it was started weekly and driven bi-weekly) before I put it on the road in March 2006. While off the road, it had a difficulty starting periodically. My mechanic replaced the Mass airflow sensor and the security chip (that interrogates the chip on the key before turning on the fuel pump).
Hi. I have a Nissan Maxima 1999 with 105,000 miles on it. I am told by the dealership service that I need new front CV boots and they are costing this out to $400. What’s the likelihood that this is truly a problem considering the vehicle age and mileage? How can I be sure this is legitimate? If it is, is it better to replace the whole CV shaft and should that be cheaper?
My car starts but does not goes into gears I mean I can not drive it I have consulted a mechanic(AAA certified) and he tells me that my car’s transmission has broke and it would cost $ 2000 for a new transmission with a two year guarantee for it. Please help me regarding this because I am confused. Also do advice me whether to buy it in cash or go for financing and if so where?
My 1997 Grand Voyager Rallye is great, except one major un-findable problem: It cuts out (no, it does not stall completely, except when I slow down to a stop or at a red light) during driving. The CHECK ENGINE SOON light comes on for just an instant, then goes out again as the van continues driving.
Thanks for a great website Austin, you are terrific! I took you up on your free ebook offer if I would just take a second to check my auto insurance rate. So I got a free car insurance quote online from your site and you were correct…I was overpaying my car insurance by 23%!!!! I can’t believe it, I even got the same carrier with the same limits as my old policy…was I a sucker or what for overpaying?
