I suspect there are limits but as long as your wife is the most important person in your life, that shouldn't be an issue.

Talk to the bank/credit union now as that car may still be on the lot tomorrow and they may be more willing to talk if their bluff is called. It is possible that 5pm seller is vaporware.

Page 114 allows you to configure the instrument cluster but as I have a Tremec. I may not have all the options available. I also suspect if it is configurable, it's probably hidden elsewhere in the configuration structure.

That's why I suspect something like a valve seal. They fit pretty tight and it takes a while for the oil that is thrown on them by the engine to leak down the valve stem then to the valve and possibly cylinder. They might see more with a bore scope after the car has parked overnight.

The super bee will be matching serial numbers once it's put back together and will be up for sale. The road runner will receive a modern Hemi of about 700 horse power and a paint job. For the time being it will be a toy for special occasions. We already parted with the gem of the collection and...

I wasn't really very concerned about the stereo system when I bought the car. All I wanted was AM and FM radio as I have spend hours on the road and you need something to kill the time. I just checked and I ended up with 12 speakers. Mostly I have been listing to 95.1 radio and their programming...

In that case, I would probably go to the right of the rear view mirror as it would block your view the least.

I would check where they want it placed. If I needed to do that I would use one of the 4 corners of the windshield as they would minimally block your view. Remember that oil change tags are placed in the upper left hand corner.

If it was really minor, the gauge shouldn't be affected. That said, if the hit was harder the tank could have been bent or the sensor arm may not be moving freely. Make sure you add that to the list of items to be inspected as sometimes dropping the fuel tank could be much more costly than you...

There is an easter egg right out in the open. The little tune the car plays when you first enter is Giddy Up. The tune was driving me up the wall until I put words to it.

Probably very few. The car we have stored is about a 69 super bee with less than 5,000 miles. Somebody didn't tighten down the rocker arm shaft and it caused valve damage within the first few 100 miles. The remainder of the milage was with a Hemi installed at a drag strip. Somebody probably had...

Blue or white smoke is oil. Black smoke is fuel. It sounds like oil is getting into the cylinders through the valve seals. It could be a defective valve seal, damaged valve guide or bent valve. Somebody made a mistake when they assembled one of the heads and the only way to fix it will be to...

I have been playing with that as well. You can configure an instantaneous economy gauge on the dash to see where you're burning fuel. I have the Dark Horse and my first tank was a little over 14 miles/gallon. I can push the milage up by taking slow starts and maintaining a constant speed. The...

Good old fashion backfiring. It happens when you back off on the gas and a little unburnt fuel makes its way into the exhaust. It the old day you would be rolling down the road and turn the key off and on resulting in a very satisfying bang. I don't recommend recreating it because those cars...

If you lose one, you still need one to introduce the new FOB to the car.

It's a bad idea because somebody could break a window and drive off with your car. They wouldn't even need to find the FOB, just push the start button. Besides that it would unlock the moment they touched the door so they wouldn't even need to break a window. About the only way out would be...

Poking around the internet, I found where it all started. Missing from it is they put a catalytic converter on it and to get the horse power up, they went to the marine division and grabbed the high lift marine cam. This gave the engine a bunch of low end torque that was pretty flat all the way...

A spy told me that my car had 12 off the truck. When I picked it up, it had 18. I think somebody may have been enjoying it before I did.

Turned auto wipers off in the configuration and they started cycling. Somewhere I bumped the stalk and moved it up one notch to the auto mode. Good thing I caught it before it got me in trouble. I find myself turning off a lot of the new features making the new car more like the old one. Rev...

I agree but how do you know they are on if they aren't cycling. I am going to turn that feature off as I could accidentally bump the setting and not know for months. Besides that, I prefer to be the judge of when I need wipers.
