    IMRC trouble????

    So I went out of town for work and decided while I was gone, I'd have the CSVT taken to the dealership for a tune-up. I did have a CE light which when I had the codes read months ago, it was a misfire in Cylinder 2, however you couldn't feel a misfire except on occassion during High RPM's, and...

    leaky waterpump

    I just changed my waterpump about 15K miles ago. I had the car on a lift not too long ago to do an oil change and it appears to be leaking again. I did use a re-man, but I thought It would have lasted longer than this. I'm kind of strapped for cash right now, how long do you think I have...

    clutch?!?

    I think I'm in serious trouble here. My car wont stay running. as long as I keep tapping the throttle, it's fine but if I let it go, It dies. I can drive it, kinda, but when I push the clutch to shift gears, the RPM's go to nothing and it feels like it wants to stall. I think it would stall...

    Update on overheating problem **VERY BAD (HG)

    Well, I decided to take my car to my garage. The one I always go to. I figured they could get to it quicker than I can considering I have college and work and everything else. Well...they believe it's the head gasket. They took the Thermostat out and it still overheated. The car was pushing...

    The Life of David Gale

    Anyone see it yet? I saw it saturday night and was highly impressed with it. I don't think it will make half as much money as it should due to poor advertising. Excellent movie though with an astonishing ending. I high recommend it.

    Tough interesting riddle, good luck!

    This is a riddle given to my class by one of our professors. It took me a long time to get it and I was the only person in the class to do so. Take a look! The warden meets with 23 new prisoners when they arrive. He tells them, "You may meet today and plan a strategy. But after today, you...

    Change sound coming from...

    There is a change sound coming from my shifter. I had this sound in the SHO too but it didnt seem to effect anything. I'm almost positive there is not change down there. Is it some type of piece of rubber that wore away and now it's just metal vibrations? Thanks in advance.

    I have the worst luck, I have developed another problem.

    This morning as I was leaving my driveway, I heard a noise. I thought it was just static in on the radio frequency so I turned it down to see. It's the heater fan. I think something either fell down into the fan and is being hit constantly or somehow the fan is catching on something else. I...

    Bought one finally

    Yep, it's true. I am now the proud owner of a 98 Contour SVT. I love it. It may not have the power the SHO had but the handling more than makes up for it. I"m very happy with the purchase.
