My friend Devie lives in the country.
She has some sort of animal making a
nest in her car. Twice this week she
has replace the spark pluge wiring and
the little rodent keeps coming back.
Oddly, it doesn't seem to like the taste of the other 4 cars at her house, just her
caddie. Any advice is welcomed

Car Alarm

I have a ‘99 F250 SD, 4×4, Triton V10 with a Viper Car Alarm, model #550HF. The starter won’t turn and I get no clicks from the solenoid. I have reset the Car Alarm using the valet button, and have found that there are 12 volts at the solenoid when I turn the ignition to crank. And, when I short across the solenoid I get clicks.I understand that the alarm has a starter inhibitor, but figure that with juice going to the solenoid it should crank. Shoudl I replace the solenoid? The truck is under warranty (but not the alarm), but I would need to tow it and I want to be sure that the alarm is not the problem. Can anyone help me?

I have a 1990 volvo 740. I drove it to work OK. Then after work, the car stop working properly only going about 10 to 15 MPH - sputtering. In neutral it idle OK but when you press on the gas it sputters. I have it at the mechanic, he has tested a number of things. Pressure, muffler system, gas. No luck. Anyone know Thanks

Help! 91 Ford Bronco won't start.....not battery, spark plugs, relays, or fuses. It just cranks and cranks...won't pump fuel to the injectors. Bypass fuel pump it does pump fuel to the injectors (grounding fuel pump). Replaced pick up coil, distributor cap, spark plugs, ignition relay. What next?
