Re: mechanic question follow-up - 15 years ago
Mass airflow sensor. MAS If the intake hose (Accordian boot) has a hole, the engine is drawing in unfiltered air. The unfiltered air is contaminating the MAS. You have to replace the intake hose and the MAS. If you take your car to AutoZone or a similar auto parts store, they'll plug in their scanner and tell you what the problem is. The other hose is probably a crank case breather tube. It leby ajakeski - Tips and Deals

Re: Car engine oil overfill. Worth draining? - 15 years ago
Too much oil can cause a problem. The crank shaft counter balance weights usually don't hit the oil in the oil pan, but if it's over full the counter balance weights will whip up the oil and make it foamy. The bubbles in the oil will cause the oil to loose some of it lubrication properties. Too much aeration will cause the oil pump to suck in this air and you'll have a loss of oil pressure. That'by ajakeski - Tips and Deals

Re: BBQ grills - 15 years ago
I'm happy with my Kenmore. 6 burners, stainless steel. This is it's 6th season, I've never had any problems with it. My friend's Weber had a leak by the gas inlet for the burner and the whole thing lit on fire. Melted all the knobs right off.by ajakeski - Tips and Deals

Re: Calling all plumbers... - 15 years ago
The solder joint between the two pieces is leaking. Could just be the solder joint, or it could be the pipe is rotting away on the inside. You could try cleaning the joint really well and sweat soldering it again. The solder may seep in far enough to seal the leak. This could fix it for a while. Best would be to take it apart, inspect the pipes and do the repair properly.by ajakeski - Tips and Deals
Re: Am I crazy to think about getting a Pontiac Aztek? - 15 years ago
Biggest problem with the Aztek is the engine. Expect to have to replace the intake manifold gaskets (and possibly the maifold) at about 60,000 miles. Not as easy of a job as you would think. Going rate has been around $900.by ajakeski - Tips and Deals

Re: iMac graphics card failing, what to do? - 15 years ago
Everyhing is on the logic board in an iMac, so you would have to replace the entire board. Not too terribly difficult to do, but boards are expensive. My old G5 iMac had lines on the display. It was caused by a general logic board failure, so I was told by Apple. The actual cause was bad capacitors. Lots of them.by ajakeski - Tips and Deals
