2 AnswersPolls & Surveys6 years agoBack up camera on Buick?
I bought a wired B/U camera for my 2008 Buick Lucerne with the intention of installing it myself. After looking into the wiring system I begin to have my doubts. Can anyone give me some pointers on this? I still think I can do it with a bit of instructions. The instructions that came with it were skimpy at best. I know the connections I need are:
1 - hot wire from back up light for camera + ground (find the bulb and connect the wire. I think I can do that)
2 - hot wire and ground + reverse hot wire and ground for monitor. (The big problem)
The rest is just connecting the two units together with the cable. Finding the connections up front on the Buick is my problem.

2 AnswersDesktops1 decade agoCan I swap a 4.3 engine for a 2.8 in my Chev S-10 Blazer?
I have a 1986 Chevy S-10 Blazer that is in very good condition. The only objection I have is the 2.8 V-6 engine does not have enough power. The later models went to a 4.3 V-6. How much trouble is it to swap the engine for the 4.3?

4 AnswersInsurance & Registration1 decade agoCan you help my 1999 Buick La Sabre ?
Sometimes when I try to start my car the security light stays on and it won't do anything. I take the key out of the ignition switch and wait for about 5 or 10 minutes and the light goes out. Then it will start. This has been going on for about a year now and none of the dealers seem to know what's wrong. It only happens about once a month and I am tired of it sitting at the shop for days while they try to get it to do it's thing without results. HELP!

Why didn't NASCAR follow their own rules and throw the caution flag on the 500? Mark Martin should have been the winner of the race. They have done it in other races, why not this one?
