I want to add relays for the headlights but I also want to add relays for other circuits like the dash lighting, brake lights, etc. And while it's not too hard to add relays into most circuits, I'm thinking I'd like to rewire the car with relays and such already built into the harnesses. Are...

I'm a nice guy. I like being nice and polite to other people. I believe in showing courtesy and all but some people are doing it incorrectly while driving. What I mean is, if you're behind someone on a main road and they want to make a left turn, they let the person on the side street turn...

Do I need longer wheel studs to mount my new wheels on my car? They're Summit Legend 5 wheels and mount the same way as OEM aluminum wheels. I don't need wheel spacers or anything like that, they're going right on the rotors/axles like the steel wheels. The reason I'm asking is the current...

Today, I finally got over the hump to getting my car back on the road. I finally got tires for the new wheels, which was the largest expense needed to get it going again. I recently acquired Blazer spindles for bigger brakes so I became ready for new tires and got them today. The car needed...

I went to the local Pull-A-Part to get a fuel pump for a Kia Optima and came home with a pair of spindles off a 98 Blazer. Aside from not having the wrench needed to get the nuts loose on the ball joints (I used arc joint pliers then had my wife get my big wrenches since the last one wouldn't...

I was thinking of getting a 96-00 vortec engine from the local pull a part but I have some questions first. is the EFI worth keeping? I wouldn't mind going to EFI but is it worth the added expense of getting the wiring harness and computer for it? Could I use a GN in tank fuel pump to get...

I'm wondering if piston skirt coatings cut down on wear in the cylinders or it's just a bunch of hokum. like these, http://www.summitracing.com/parts/slp-h ... /overview/ Obviously they're not expensive but are they worth getting over non coated pistons? I've never read an article that...

so i got myself a can of grease to repack my bearings. the label says super lithium EP moly grease NLGI no.2, is this good enough or do i need something else? i just want to verify before i use it.

i pulled a couple plugs from a kia optima and saw red discoloration on the ground strap and insulation. WTF causes that? the plugs themselves are autolite double platinums. i've never seen red discoloration on a plug before. has anyone else seen this before? i did some googling and read it...

a wrench is not going to reach the fittings on the transmission so i'm guessing flare nut crowfoot sockets will have to do. i dont have SAE flae nut crowfoot sockets, but i do have a set in metric :blam: how has anyone else removed these pesky things? i'm tired of replacing hard lines on...

I'm finishing installing my new brake lines and I only have the line that runs along the frame towards the rear to do. does anyone have experience doing this in a driveway? It looks like I need to move/remove the transmission cross member and get the parking brake cables out of the way and in...

i hate this thing. i trimmed it so i can actually get the wire boots on and off the cap without loosening the screws to give me enough clearance but i'm wondering if it's even necessary. i removed the coil to trim the cover and put it back in but it just sticks out like a sore thumb in the...
