Does the car also energize other functions, besides the lights, when the key is in proximity? Or is that just when the door is opened? For...
Slow down there fellas. With the limited info we have so far, it's a little early to be diagnosing this as a blown head gasket. Here's what we...
You're absolutely correct about the old engine: coolant entering the cylinder caused the misfire. It's entirely possible your new engine has a...
Any codes? In most instances the knocking sound is a symtom, not the problem. The sound is likely coming from the damper plate, but the reason...
Do you have an air compressor? If so, it's handy when drying out a flooded cylinder.
