    1998 Ford Ranger Check Engine Light

    I know this is a long shot but I have a 98 Ranger (v6 3.0) that was my father in laws(RIP). Being that he was in his 80s, the yearly emissions test was waived. For the longest time, his check engine light was on but when codes were scanned, it indicated no problems. His mechanic tried everything...

    Thinking about Leaving the Vette World

    Really just a short timer compared to most of you folks. Have had multiple Vettes since 2004 (89, 99, 01). As I have gotten older (68), it's gotten to be a minor struggle getting in and out of the car plus even minor maintenance isn't approached with any enthusiasm that I had even 2 years ago. 2...

    Sucking / Whistling sound from engine

    Noticed over the last week that my 99 Vette seemed to be missing/stumbling a little on idle and I was looking into it today. Under the hood, it seems to have a loud hissing, whistling or sucking show and it was louder than I had heard before. I located the area on the front passenger side of the...

    Could this be a 'grounding' issue? 99 C5

    I went out to my car 60 minutes ago, got in, bumped the key (normally cranks and starts immediately), let off the key, no start. Turned the key off, retried and got nothing (no crank, silence). Pulled the key, opened the door, something seemed to reset (heard a click) so I closed the door and...

    Screened inset below running lights

    I have a 1999 coupe and last week had a dump truck drop some dirt clods in front of me as I rode behind him. One clod lodged in the 'screened' area just below the front passenger running light. From what I can see/feel, the screen is set into a rubber ring that fits into an oblong slot. I have...
