2000 Chevy Camaro starts, idles low around 1000 rpms for 4 or 5 seconds before dying Sounds a lot like a bad fuel pump or fuel pump relay. |

Subaru Outback Towing vs Coasting Most all of the AWD manuals implore you to tow the Subaru with the wheels down as slow as possible and for as little distance as possible in order not to risk damaging the transmission. |

When do brake rotors really need to be replaced? The minimum acceptable thickness will usually be stamped on the brake rotor near the center. You can use a micrometer to measure the thickness of your rotor. Be sure to measure in different spots ( the grooves for example). youtube.com/watch?v=NpkoffI1co4 |

Bad to run the car for a short duration, turn it off, and start up again? What is this place you live where people are just standing nearby waiting to jump into your drivers seat as soon as you turn your back to close a door?? |

Motorcycle: Fuel Injection light comes on after 5 mins of riding The decrease in power is probably from the engine going into some kind of limp mode when the error code is thrown. The FI light could be caused by a number of things though. What's the warranty like in Australia? |

Bad to run the car for a short duration, turn it off, and start up again? If you have to choose between possibly shortening the life of your engine a little and having your car stolen all together, you'll have to pick your battles. Though I would suggest using two keys. Leave one key in the ignition with the car on, and use the other key to lock/unlock the car while you go to close the garage. |

Please tell me I did not kill My chole (1999 VW Beetle) Mike hit the nail on the head, the best case scenario here is that the head gasket is blown to pieces, and there's little chance that it makes sense financially to pay for that kind of repair on a 14 y/o beetle. |
