This morning I went outside to start my truck and let it warm up a bit since it was only about 35 degrees outside. As soon as I turned it on, the Check Engine light came on, but it was not idling badly and everything seemed to be normal. So after letting it idle for about 15 minutes, I hopped in and backed out of my drive way. When I shifted into 1st and took off the truck started bucking like crazy around 2500 RPMs. I shifted into 2nd quick and the same thing happened. I ran it up to 3rd gear and in each gear it did the same thing, bucking like a bull at 2500 RPMs. Any idea what could have caused it?

Additional info - I don't run the truck all that often, maybe once a week. Last time I ran it, the CEL was not on and everything ran fine. I have the 2006 Dodge Dakota SLT, 4.8 V8 with a 6-speed manual with about 104,000 miles on it.

In my house, my oil furnace makes the hot water for my house and also heats the house with forced hot water baseboard heat. Lately, when its making hot water for the house, the baseboard radiators will get warm, even though the thermostat has not called for heat in the house. I've noticed that this causes the furnace to run more frequently. Any idea what might be causing this

I have a 2007 VW Passat 2.0T. It has the cartridge filter and filter housing set up. I found a filter online that says it's an exact fit for this car, but it's the standard Spin Off filter, that does not need the housing. Am I able to use this kind of filter on the Passat?

Here, take a look, its a Favre Jersey, but I don't remember seeing them in anything like this so far this year.

Please leave the dog fighting and suspensions at the door. I want to know only about the football player and the football skills...NOTHING ELSE!.

Here's my argument and I'm challenging you to prove me wrong.

Vick is a horrible QB and stats don't lie:

Career 75.7 QB rating. bad

71/52 TD/INT ratio in 74 career games. bad

53.8% career completion percentage. bad

Still think he can be a successful QB in the league? prove it to me

Yeah he can run, but that's never going to lead a team to playoffs, let alone a super bowl.

If you wanna see the entire list of crappy crappy career stats, here ya go...

not really sure how to fix it. i'm only slicing with my irons, not woods or driver. any suggestions?

What is the one moment that got you hooked on NASCAR Racing?

Mine was the 1994 Mt. Dew Southern 500 at Darlington. My dad was always a big Bill Elliott fan and I saw him win that race and I was hooked. Ironically, Bill didn't win another race till he joined up with Evernham, but I stuck with him.

emotional wreck, horrible stats. kerry collins steps into the same offense and almost runs the table.

IMO, Vince Young was a bust and I called it before he even got drafted.

Whenever somebody says something bad about Jr, a lot of the answers are "Jealousy" What are exactly are the bashers "jealous" of?

The reason I ask is because I really don't like the ride and price of low profile tires.

And how expensive would it be (ballpark guess)?

Is it possible to do it without calibrating the speedometer?

I'm personally not a part of Jr. nation, but I still want to see the guy succeed, just so everybody will leave him alone. He seems like an awesome down to earth guy and he's not afraid to say when somethings bothering him. I wish he could succeed and shut all the Jr haters up.

How many of you are frustrated with the offseason so far?

Not resigning Birk?

Not being able to land TJ Housh?

Only bringing in Sage and no other QBs?

And who knows what else could happen yet...

I listened to the demo they had on their website and I cannot believe that they ruined all of their classic songs with dance beats and rap. I think its a tragedy and a quick sell out to make more money. What's your take on the GC remix cd?

Dale Jr - 27th, 39th, and 10th.

yeah he finished 10th at Cali, but didn't run well most of the race.

Mark Martin - 16th, 40th, and 40th

Yeah engine troubles could be to blame here, but he's struggling like Dale Jr.

Whats your take?

Oh, and I'm NOT an HMS, Dale Jr, or Mark Martin fan or hater. Just curious.

He's narrowed his list to Seattle, Minnesota, and Cincinnati? Where do you see him ending up out of those 3 teams?

What do you guys think of the car in general?

Good car?

Fast car?

Good in the snow?

Just let me know what you all think, I'm considering buying one.

I have an Easton Octane and the blade is starting to crack and wear out on it. How do I take the old one out and put the new one in?

It does not screw in, or I would not have asked.

Your answers in the order you think they'll start the Chase as well.

Here's my prediction...

1. Carl Edwards

2. Jimmie Johnson

3. Kyle Busch

4. Jeff Gordon

5. Mark Martin

6. Matt Kenseth

7. Tony Stewart

8. Kevin Harvick

9. David Ragan

10. Greg Biffle

11. Kasey Kahne

12. Clint Bowyer

Because obviously T-Junk and Frerotte(n) can't lead this team anywhere. What are your thoughts on who should lead this team from under center?
