    Recently our van developed a random hard starting condition. Generally we just tap the key and it starts. Periodically, we crank and crank, pause, crank and crank before it starts. Any ideas what may be causing this?

    Well not really because the gasket was bad but because somewhere along the line the oil pan got dented in a little. Not sure how? Maybe something hit it or someone used it as a jacking point? Sorry no pics this time. Anyway, I’m quite certain the pan has never been off before and overall I was...

    Today I was under my 02 GCS changing out the sway bar bushings and noticed what may be the main cause of my P0442, P0455 Evap leaks. The rear EVAP canister has three hoses going to it and they are all cracked at the connection points. Does anyone know the part numbers to these hoses as well...

    Just recently I went to the dealer and got the snow tires taken off the family hauler. Was talking to their service adviser and the topic of new cars using 0W-20 motor oil came up. He said, it's so thin, it's like water. I thought to myself, interesting, what's the viscosity of water? So just...

    Thought I'd share some of the stuff I did differently from the book on an alternator job. The subject is a 98 Plymouth Grand Voyager, with 191,000 exactly. The alternator was original and the brushes had worn out. The cast case also had several cracks in it, possibly from me beating it with...

    It starts ok and runs ok until the first stop sign or light. It then starts to buck and will cut off. Placing it in neutral causes the bucking to stop. Once it's all warmed up every thing is good. The torque converter is linking and adding stop leak improved the problem, but did not...
