comment Engine reving and stalls after filling gas tank
Are you sure it's actually from adding gas and not from restarting after only being off for a couple minutes?

comment cabin fan motor loud then burnt out
Being lazy often leads to much more expensive repairs down the road. Best to take care of issues right away while they're small. Well, unless you're rich and your time is worth more than a few hundred or thousand dollars here and there.

comment I forgot to release the hand brake while I'm driving at around 4 to 5 km. what will happen to my rear brakes?
I've had the parking brakes freeze "on" in my car a few times in the Winter. Taking it nice and slow I was able to limp the car home to my warm garage to thaw them out. Did generate a good deal of heat, but no obvious extra wear (and not enough heat to boil the brake fluid). YMMV of course, especially if you drove fast with them locked on.

comment How to properly change out spark plugs?
If your car sounds like a weedwhacker engine instead of a car engine, that's kind of what it sounds like when a smaller engine isn't firing on all cylinders. Larger engines it can be hard to tell.

I've also seen the "S" used for "Snow" transmission modes before.

comment Reading ABS diagnostic codes on a Volvo 940
Pretty unlikely (few even have the readers for ABS on OBD-II cars as it's not part of the "normal" OBD-II reader), but worth a stop by to ask them anyways.

comment Alternative to Bajaj Pulsar 180 UG4 stock headlamp
I'd look into the LED method myself. I've found that LED aircraft lights are MUCH superior to the Quartz Halogen models that they replace (despite only being rated for similar output).

comment Plastic end-tank radiator
My sample size is pretty small, but the only problems I've ever seen on the new style is cracks in the aluminum of the radiator tubes, the plastic end tanks don't seem to fail.
