  • Is it the water pump?

    I have a '97 Chevy S-10 2.2 with 208K miles. Today on the way to work the heat cut out suddenly.

    I have had an issue with my engine where the temp will go up and down while on the highway but maxes out at like 215. Today after the heat cut out it was getting up near the redline before going back down to 150.

    I made sure the coolant was good before coming home but on the way home it was doing the same thing. I changed the thermostat but it's still doing the same thing.

    When I rev the engine I can see the upper radiator hose collapsing so it seems like there's a clog somewhere but I don't know how to find it. I guess it could be the water pump but then what is causing the suction on the upper radiator hose?

    Anyone have any ideas?

  • White smoke coming from tailpipe on '97 S-10?

    Is it gas or antifreeze? I'm getting a fuel too lean code in the computer which suggests to me that it couldn't be gas but the unburnt fuel smell is overwhelming when it's idling.

    The truck has had head gasket issues before and the gasket was changed just over a year ago. This first started happening after I drained some of the coolant to add more antifreeze for the winter.

  • Where can you get Heroes torrents as soon as they come out?

    There used to be a South Park fan site that would have torrent files of the new episodes like 10 minutes after the show aired. Does anyone know of something similar for Heroes?

  • Is something wrong with this math?!?

    I just found this posted on craigslist and I have yet to find a flaw in this reasoning...

    A vehicle at 15 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 800 gallons a year of gasoline.

    A vehicle at 25 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 480 gallons a year.

    So, the average clunker transaction will reduce US gasoline

    consumption by 320 gallons per year.

    They claim 700,000 vehicles – so that's 224 million gallons / year.

    That equates to a bit over 5 million barrels of oil.

    5 million barrels of oil is about ¼ of one day's US consumption.

    And, 5 million barrels of oil costs about $350 million dollars at $75/bbl.

    So, we all contributed to spending $3 billion to save $350 million.

    How good a deal was that???

    Did no one do this math before this fiasco?

  • Chevy s-10 electrical system is dead?

    My truck has been having issues for awhile now. The check engine light is on and it has Crankshaft and Camshaft position sensors trouble codes. I long ago determined that the sensors were not at fault and I have always believed it was some kind of strange electrical problem.

    Now today as I'm driving into work the radio went out and then came back on, along with the door open buzzer. The engine never died and I went to work just fine. I also went to lunch and got gas and made it back to the job with no trouble.

    Then about 4:00 I went out to have a smoke and listen to the radio. When I was done smoking I removed the key and got out, but there was a buzzing coming from the dash. It was the door buzzer TRYING to make it's sound but it sounded like a toy with dead batteries.

    I put the key back in and tried to start it. Nothing. No radio, no dash lights, nothing.

    Any ideas where I should look?

  • Does anyone know ANY software that will display a partition;s size in MB?

    I want to be able to use diskpart to create a partition that is exactly the same size as another. To do this I have to enter the size in MB except I can't find the size of the partition in MB, everything displays it in GB.

  • How to use diskpart to determine a partitions exact size?

    I want to use diskpart to look at a disk and determine the exact size in MB of the partitions so that I can use that information to create another disk with the exact same partition table.

    When you go into diskpart and enter "DETAIL DISK" it gives the partition sizes in GB and that's not enough resolution considering you have to enter partition size in MB when you create a partition.

    Anyone had to do this before or have any suggestions?

  • Can I hack an old set of jumper cables to get a new positive battery cable for my truck?

    I've got a '97 Checvy S-10 4 banger with a really corroded battery cable. I think this cable is causing the problems I'm having with the thing.

    I want to replace it but I don't want to have the thing die on me on my way to the auto parts store.

    I do have a bunch of jumper cables and I figure they are long enough and should be of a heavy enough gauge that they would work well.

    Anyone disagree?

  • Why does it take a 2/3 vote in the house?

    The house just voted down the bill delaying the switch to digital TV. The vote was 258-168 for the bill but 2/3 was required so the bill has been killed.

    Don't get me wrong i think a delay is the worst possible idea I've heard of, I'm just can't imagine why a super-majority would be necessary.

  • My girlfriend thinks she popped her wrist out of place?

    She said she heard her wrist popped while she was carrying a baby in a carseat up a flight of stairs and it's been hurting her to the point that she can barely use her right hand.

    She thinks it shifted out of place and she wants me to pull it out and pop it back in to place. Can this even happen? I've heard of shoulders popping out of there sockets but I've never heard of wrists doing it.

    So should I do this?

  • I accidentally impaled my palm with a nail?

    I was doing some work on my house yesterday and I lost my balance on a ladder and had to grab the wall to keep from falling.

    The problem is the part of the wall i grabbed on to had a nail sticking out.

    I know it didn't go any deeper than 1/2 inch or so, and the nail wasn't rusty or anything but my hand was really dirty from the work I was doing.

    I immediately washed my hands very well and cleaned the wound with alcohol and bandaged it up. A few hours later the wound was closed.

    It's pretty sore today though and I'm wondering when or with what signs I should be worried about?

  • What do you think Obama meant?

    When he said:

    "I shall stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction"

    It is a line from one of his books.
