You know.. I have access to a 16 head embroidery machine where I work ( I am the resident computer geek for a small chain of award shops ) I can check and see if the machine will do floor mats.. but I am pretty sure it will. If this is the case.. I can arrange for you to ship floor mats directly to ...

The tranny slipping out of 5th gear can apparently mean the trans is low on gear oil. So you may get lucky on that one. Also.. from what Yoda is saying in another thread.. 5th gear is located externally on the trans so removing the trans from the car isnt always neccessary to repair a problem with t...

From what I have read here in these forums.. the gear oil fill is where the speedometer cable connects to the trans.. uplug the cable, remove the gear.. add your gear oil, replace the gear and connect the cable. Hope this helps. Also might want to check the online shop manual.. it might show you as ...

Check for excessive play in your distributor shaft. Also make sure the rotor is fully seated onto the end of the shaft. Make sure all of your plug wires are fully connected (they like to pop off the distributor cap if they didnt get fully seated) The reason this is getting worse when you turn on you...

Ground Cables

After doing a bit of reading around here.. and after noticing that my headlights dim when I hit the brakes.. I have decided to replace the ground straps on my ride. Anyone have a suggestion or two on what gauge cable would be best and or good connectors? TIA

Call an insurance company for accurate quotes.. and pick an MX-3 that has both ABS and Airbags.. insurance companies love these features and your rates will be lower. My rates dropped $23 over my 6 month premium going from my Subaru XT to my MX-3 that only has Airbags.. would have dropped another $1...

Ok.. I'll add my 2 cents.. I dont really know what "Rice" is.. seems like everyone has their own definition of the word.. I think I will stick to the original definition of it being a moderately starchy sticky disgusting food stuff that apparently originated in Asia. Having said that.. the...

Have you looked at the engine in that car? I am just noticing that it has GS features but its showing the RS engine? :confused2: Might be worth taking a closer look at the car.. they may have it advertised with the wrong engine. The wheels on it are the GS Alloy wheels I believe ( I could be wrong )...
