    How strong is the tailgate

    I frequently haul our 2 dirt bikes (YZ250 & XR25R) and I found that the cables are holding fine, but the spindle on the left side of the truck bed that the tailgate pivots on started to bend. My solution was to use a piece of 3/4" plywood cut to fit. This spreads the load out and relieves the...

    Sport Trac Floor Mats

    I bought the Sport Trac mats and the driver's side had a hole in it after the first winter. I've used Weathertech before and they're top notch.

    Anybody like Jig-A-Loo?

    Recently, I heard a loud whining sound coming from the kitchen. Upon inspection I found my son whining about the indignities of being a teenager. One shot of Jig-A-Loo in his mouth and now he won't come near me...it's quiet now, problem solved.:banana:

    97 Escort ???

    It runs fine with the light flickering on/off intermittently. I will probably just change out the cables and plugs first. Lorne

    97 Escort ???

    Got a question about my daughter's Escort. I have a #4 cylinder misfire code. The guy at Auto Zone said that this could be caused by a pinched plug wire since she (daughter) installed after market (thicker) wires but kept the original plastic wire stays. They do pinch it a little, but I'm...

    Car parts terminology

    My daughter's car has some damage to the splash guards inside of both wheel wells. I'm trying to order some new ones, but I'm not sure what they are called. I think that they are called "splash shields". These come for both sides, but there aren't any pictures for me to verify if it is the...

    Towing an Escort

    I have to go up to VT to pick up my daughter's Escort after she loaned it to a "friend" who then hit two cars with it. (His "heels":o got caught and couldn't get to the brake). She's afraid to drive it, so I think that I'll just drag it back here to CT. I'm considering a dolly to reduce weight...

    I'm lazy, help me stay lazy

    Todd, I have two basements. One is under the original house, and a small one under the master bedroom which was added later. No floor drains either.

    I'm lazy, help me stay lazy

    Like many people I have a dehumidifier in my basement. Actually I have two, one in each basement. One of them is a fancy model with a pump that allows me to be lazy. The other is old school and requires emptying daily. I would like to build a small pump complete with tank level switches to...
