Can I put the tires in the opposite direction on the rear-end on my front wheel drive configuration? Some tires are definitely directional, and should always rotate toward the front of the vehicle in drive (no swapping sides when rotating the tires). I think there must be some where it does not matter, since you do see rotation patterns that swap what side the tire is on. Swapping which side of the tire is on the inside, however, I'm not so sure about. I suppose that could be bad depending on the tire, but I think it used to be common to mount tires with whitewalls on the inside. |

Can I put the tires in the opposite direction on the rear-end on my front wheel drive configuration? Welcome to the site! Could you elaborate on what you mean by "reverse" the tires? Do you mean just swapping the rear wheels from one side to the other or having the tires remounted so that the current outside faces in? |

Cleaning fuel injectors with a pressurized can? Have you checked the idle air control valve? Maybe checked your coil pack? EGR Valve? I wonder if the engine just happens to idle better on a seafoam/gas mix regardless of the injectors. Or does the benefit last for a tank or two? |

Cleaning fuel injectors with a pressurized can? Plugging a can of something into the fuel rail might be better than dumping injector cleaner into the fuel tank, but it's not going to change the screens on the injectors. Pulling the injectors should also allow concentrations of solvent that you would never want going into your engine. You'll have to do the math on cost/labor and decide what's best for you. Given the costs you cited for the fuel rail kit, I'd think that could be comparable to sending your injectors off to be cleaned. This is all just my opinion, anyway. |

Honda Accord 2000 V6 intermitently stalls when idling after start. What may cause it? Which relay did you replace? |

Low power, bad gas mileage, smelly exhaust after engine work Hopefully there is a test port on the fuel rail. If so, you can rent a pressure gauge from a parts store. |

Low acceleration @Namshum We need details to help you. What year is your vehicle? Is this a new problem or has your vehicle always behaved this way? When you say your car stops, do you mean the engine stops running? |

Does tire size and/or tread wear significantly affect speed and speedometer accuracy? If the odometer is using the same signal as the speedometer, it will be off, too. |
