Separate names with a comma.
My understanding is that leaving valve stem extensions on TPMS stems is a bad idea, at least if the car is going to be driven at any appreciable...
There is an America's Tire about a mile away, so that would be a good option. Les Schwab only has a single store in the Bay Area, and driving...
Soft water corrodes water heaters even faster as it is more acidic. For soft water use a magnesium anode, which isn't what they usually come with...
Found an old bike pump in the corner of their garage with a smaller chuck. That one fit on if the hose was aimed at the hub, but the lever was so...
Long time. The force is all on the nut on the top of the anode rod, there is some vibration going into the tank, but I have never seen a report...
Short form: what tire gauges and pumps (manual or electric) do you use to maintain the tires on this vehicle? Without having to remove the hub...
With 15" wheels I find the Ecopia's at 35 front, 33 rear to be both noisy and pretty stiff. I'm not sure how a car can have a suspension that...
Good point, but I don't know which fuses are involved. Littelfuse...
Seemed a little high to me. .1V/.75A = 133 milliOhms. Electrical connectors, if not dirty or corroded, are rarely more than a milliOhm, and...
The plugin voltmeter has two USB sockets on it, rated at 2.4A each. Never used them before. Today plugged in a small flip phone, and the...
A bad radiator cap can result in unexplained coolant loss. The OP might very well have the original cap, and at more than 300K miles, it may be...
Was the car ever in an accident? Bend the body a little and it becomes really difficult to get the alignment right. We had a Protege5 that kept...
Well, hand waving, ballpark 10A for either one window motor or the blower (at some speed). Hard to figure it out from the fuses for the window...
Exactly. It made no sense that the cabin fan, which can draw a lot of current, didn't affect the reading, whereas the window motors did, if the...
Thanks. I knew this 12V had very little capacity, but it still holds voltage OK overnight, and still has enough oomph to get the car to READY....
I don't know the details, but since we know they must program in the odometer reading my best guess is that they also program in the VIN, or some...
I have been driving around for a while with a voltmeter display stuck in the power outlet under the glove box. It typically reads 14.3 V or 14.4...
Well, at the very least the odometer will be wrong, since that information is stored in the combination display. (Ours was replaced under a...
Pictures? It doesn't sound "severely". Mashed bumper and broken tail light isn't a deal breaker, but bending the car is. We had a 2000 Subaru...
Yup. I have on occasion temporarily soldered a second capacitor on in parallel in some piece of equipment, but it was always just to verify that...
