Claudia Hayden — Sun, 04 Aug 2024 21:09:15 +0000

If an ozone generator was left in a car 15 hours, is it safe to drive the car? How long would it take to “air’ the car out so that it could be driven again. Is this one very long exposure, enough to permanently damage the cat?

Comment on What Does A Vacuum Brake Booster Check Valve Do? by Pedro Salinas

Pedro Salinas — Tue, 25 Jun 2024 03:28:00 +0000

Thank you very much for your explanation, I have a Lada 2105 which has had this problem since last year. I bought a new brake booster and now the problem I have is that the break pedal does not return to its original position. Today I decreased the length of the secondary shaft 3 times and still the brake pedal does not return to its original position, but I noticed something today and it is, it goes to its original position when the car is off. I checked the check valve and found it that is wiggling from the booster, not from the hose. I think that may be my problem, through this wiggling air enters in the secondary chamber losing vacuum. Thanks for your help. I

I have a 2004 Chevy Silverado, one evening after work,I stopped off at a 7-11 to grab a soda,and when I pulled back out on to the street,I accelerated through 1 and 2 gear,and when it should have shifted into 3rd
.all it did was rev….like it was in neutral….so no 3rd or overdrive…it just revs up like the thing is slipping….so I took it to the shop,they said it most likely was the bands for 3rd and 4th gear…and that my Silverado transmission was notorious for this…about 3 out of 10 trucks have this issue…so 3200.00 hundred dollars later,I had my whole transmission rebuilt with a stag 3 shift kit….something I always wanted to do,but could never really get my wife on board,just because it was more of a want type thing,and not something I needed….or could really afford…if I wanted to go on vacation to Hawaii this year…well I got my truck back,still no 3rd or overdrive..come to find out,all it was,was a 3 dollar relay…..did I pull a fast one on my wife…
I’ll let you be the judge of that….

Comment on What Causes Play In Steering Wheel? 3 Reasons by Debbie

Debbie — Thu, 28 Dec 2023 16:17:09 +0000

Nothing here about play in the steering wheel. My Fijé cruiser has the lightest touch that if you move it slightly it turns this is not safe. I cannot find anywhere that says whether it can be tightened or service to not have so much play.
