Oh what are you talking about ????? It was snowing this morning, had to seriously consider using the truck to take the kids to daycare instead of the car. I mean there must have been at least 1/60000 of an inch on the ground for a nanosecond before it melted :D

It's vacuum. I just replaced the egr. Not sure what other parts you're talking about. So probably have a vacuum leak somewhere then? It's kinda a shame with this car. It's overall in really good shape but obvious that the past few years its been neglected. Just a bunch of little things that by...

Argh, just when I think I've covered everything you ask more :D :D :D Car had one code for bad EGR. I replaced it with a new one. Didn't change anything.

This is a '95 Taurus GL 3.0. 217,000 miles. If you've read my other post, this was the $300 deal I found for a friend of ours that's in a very tight financial situation. I've been able to get it useable for her for very little investment in parts and overall this car is in very good shape...

I'm not sure what's going on, but it's getting rather annoying. The last couple days my primary laptop is randomly loosing internet connection. The self diagnostic always says it's an outside problem between the router and server, however my older laptop is connecting just fine. If I close...

I probably already know the answer, but is there any cheaper way to get Transynd or Mobil Delvac synthetic besides the Allison shop or auto parts store? Lowest I've found is $36.50/gallon. Shocking I know my truck will finally hit 75,000 miles later this spring. Since I'm doing the double...

this is a 3 year old thread revived from the dead. ;)

Ya, tiny little problem there. Especially since the truck goes all of 6,000 miles/year.

The only complaints I would hear is the clutch can't take the abuse. Side note....I so wish I had the 6 speed ally in my rig. The double O would make my 496 much happier on the highway

I didn't even pick up on the no manual transmission part. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see more diesel cars running around. Problem is the general population doesn't understand the real difference between diesel and gas. They are going to look at Cruze Eco rated at 42 mpg or Cruze diesel...

Disappointed, yet I expected it at the same time. It's rated at the same mpg as the current Cruze Eco package. From a general consumer standpoint why pay all the extra money for an engine that costs more to fuel up at the pump? Unfortunately I see it not lasting long as an option. Hope I'm...

One of the subtle mods I did to mine thanks to ebay. Came out of the store a month ago and saw a guy looking intently at my truck. Like everyone else here would have been, I was tad concerned something had happened. I hit the remote unlock button which made him turn around and see me. He...

Does he think something is wrong?

I didn't have to jump start the beast but this sub zero spell we've been in was really getting me nervous. 2 slow cranks was all it would give but it would fire right up. Gee sure is nice having a gas motor :D :D. Running on the original so i can't complain about 7 years 10 months of use. Almost...

I'm going to go out on a limb and say I don't like the hub caps. They need to be more unique to fit the rest of the truck.

I bet you do :hihi: I just looked at a 2004 Impala LS this afternoon. Very good condition :thumbsup: Wish I had money right now.

OK, technically not dead but beyond my ability to repair because I have no garage and it's blowing, snowing, and 5 degrees outside. The handful of shops I called for estimates were around $1500 with majority being labor. Major issues: Blown intake manifold gasket: oil in radiator, coolant in...

eh, one saturn is enough. I want a bigger car for our long distance road trip vehicle. The Impala did die, I'm down a vehicle in our fleet :(

In my records it was averaging 26-27 mpg, so roughly 2.5 times better mileage. It had gone down the last 7 months. Most likely indicating the beginning of the demise. Bought the Impala shortly after the truck so I had both for about 7 years. Truck put on 70,000 miles. Car put 180,000 miles...

Before the Impala died I was going to import all those fuel ups too. All 180,000 miles worth. That would have trumped the truck big time :D
