If you're thinking of selling your car, consider having the engine steam cleaned. It's purely for aesthetics, but can influence the price you get when selling it to a private party.
Enter Richard Hollingsworth, thirty-something, bored, auto parts near me clerk from New Jersey. Richard understood the conundrum of a family at odds on a Friday night. The parents just wanted to settle in and relax after a hard work week. The kids were itching to get out, maybe see a movie. So, as a test, Richard set up a screen in his driveway with cars parked at different angles so they could see the screen. It was a concept which would launch a form of entertainment which still hangs on today. Mr. Hollingsworth won a patent for his innovative idea in May of 1933 and in June of that same year, he and an investor group built the first drive-in theater for $30,000 in Camden, New Jersey. "Drive In Theater" cost 25 cents per car, 25 cents per person and no more than $1 total.
One last thing about fuses. They can and do, simply wear out and fail. Each time you activate a circuit in your car like the lights for example, current will flow through that fuse. So that fuse heats up a tiny bit each time it is used. Over the years this flexing from heat expansion will cause that fuse to fail when there is no overload or short in the circuit whatsoever.
In all cases, consider a locking cable and a storage bag. The locking cable helps with theft protection. You will sleep better at night knowing both car and cover are safe and sound.
On forward mounted engines, the water pump will usually be where the fan attaches to the motor. On sideways mounted engines, the water pump will usually be in roughly the center of the engine on the end where the belts are located. You can recognize most water pumps because the heater hoses are attached to them. Normally, scrap yards near me open now will be located at the end of the upper radiator hose and be right above the water pump. If you cannot be sure, go to your auto store near me and they can generally give you guidance.
Settling into the seat next to Little Frankie, who, by the way, had to have weighed in just under what that El Camino he was driving weighed, I introduced myself and begin to tell him where I needed to go. Little Frankie explained he knew just where I was and promptly asked me if I'd like the air conditioning turned on. I'm not sure why, but all I could say was, "I might be able to get by without it, but it sure would make my life a whole lot easier right now." To my surprise Little Frankie began rolling up his window, motioned to mine and reached across to turn on the switch that said a/c. Well, how about that. A 1972 El Camino with a perfectly good working air conditioner.
This is what many fail to understand that is costing them a lot of their time and money. Let's say you're having problems with your power steering in your car and so you go to the auto parts store near me and purchase brakes. Will your power steering now all of a sudden work once you put those new brakes on? Probably not.
Remove the old pads. Remember, usually how you take something out, is how you also put it back in so pay attention. Also, if the parts are completely dirty, spray some brake cleaner onto any of the brake parts to help them function better in the long run.
