    3.7 oil crud probelm

    Rattle does sound like loose catalytic converter plug. You can tap on it, engine off, with a rubber mallet, hammer handle butt, etc, and usually hear rattle. If bad, definitely needs replaced at engine replacement to avoid backpressure issues with new engine. Bob

    02 Liberty 3.7 temperature goes down on highway

    Chance your thermostat's not quite what it should be. Other option would be a piece of cardboard slid between grille and radiator. Keep close eye on gauge and adjust cardboard size till it stays where you want it. (Big trucks have temp controlled shutters to regulate air flow through...

    If it's clearly listed as HOAT, don't matter if color's different, it's still HOAT. Bob EDIT; If it's full strength, mix to 50/50 with water.

    Overall, not a big fan of Lucas products, but I've seen their PS conditioner get rid of the whine more often than not. Bob

    Brake sticking issue help

    Even though the piston will push back, is the slider moving freely? A stuck slider will allow the pad on the piston to move,but hold the other pad tight against the rotor. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    crank but no start

    Dont know about Jeep, but on GM vehicles you can almost always beat hell out of the bottom of the tank and get the pump to function one more time. Not a very scientific test, but effective. Bob Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Exhaust and convertor suggestions

    Yea, probably cutting corners, but may have been for your benefit instead of theirs, nothing more dreaded in a shop than having to call a customer and inform them of ANOTHER unforeseen $100.. Expense. Bob Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Exhaust and convertor suggestions

    Power Steering Fluid Low = Noise

    While having an assistant start it while you keep it full while catching what comes through the removed return hose may be a more complete procedure, just partially sucking fluid out with a turkey baster and filing with fresh in two or three episodes will produce the same result without the...

    Exhaust and convertor suggestions

    Where'd you find the leak? Occasionally a flange will crack and require replacement, otherwise new gasket(where applicable), new bolts, lubricated fasteners, etc will fix most any exhaust leak. Over the years, I've often cut cracked flanges off good exhaust assemblies and replaced just the...
