I'm not the droid you're looking for.

Nov 15	comment	How do you remove or even get to the car battery on a 2012 Honda Odyssey? Have you tried looking around for a remote "black terminal", or another location specially labeled to show that it's intended to be used as the negative post in a jump start? Of course, there's always the friendly manual.
Oct 15	comment	Why would my engine temperature raise from normal to high and drop back down again? Seems about right to me. Interestingly, on my Jeep (which had a similar problem once), I found that revving the engine while still actually helped the temperatures by getting the fan spinning faster.
Jun 30	comment	Put Stop leak into engine. Can I reverse the process? Ow. I feel really bad for this guy. "Change the oil again in about 100 miles", for me, pretty much means "change the oil when you get home from work the next day".
Feb 16	comment	Disc brake damage, how can it happen? The worst disc damage I've ever had was when I'd totally burned out the pads on one brake, then what was left just ground the disc until it was paper-thin and snapped off the hub.
Dec 22	comment	CEL 12, 21, and 55 on '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee Worked for me. Thanks.
Nov 29	comment	Permanent fix to AC drain clogging in '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee? So, we're effectively saying "Yes, that's a bad place for the exhaust port. You'd better jury-rig a good force-field in front of it."?
Nov 29	comment	Permanent fix to AC drain clogging in '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee? But then, wouldn't that just be changing the location of the clog to wherever the mesh screen is put?
Nov 29	comment	Permanent fix to AC drain clogging in '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee? No picture, but I believe it is the same issue discussed here: mechanics.stackexchange.com/a/2330/78
Nov 28	comment	Sloshing Sound Under Dash This makes sense for my case also, as I do currently have the "draining into the carpet" problem.
Nov 28	comment	Key cycling to determine cause of check engine light Autozone and similar generally won't read codes for OBD-I systems. At least, that's how it is in my area.
Nov 28	comment	Key cycling to determine cause of check engine light Can't vouch for Ford or others, but this also works on a '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It may just be a Dodge thing though, since they make Jeep as well.
Nov 12	comment	Sloshing Sound Under Dash I think I may have a similar issue in my '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee. For me, there's no real consistency to when it happens, but I've been wondering what it is. I'd call the sound more of a "flushing" than "sloshing" - as if the liquid is being made to move, not just loosely flowing around.
Jul 28	comment	wavering speedometer Mine doesn't waver nearly as much, but I've got a similar-ish issue in my '96 Mark VIII. In that case, the speedometer is also off by about +4 MPH in that speed range.
Jul 22	comment	Best way to diagnose and fix a shifter that sticks in park? @ManiacZX - The line you quoted from the Wiki is actually the reverse of what you've posted. The Wiki quote, in short, says apply the e-brake and then the "pawl" (by shifting into park). Your answer suggests shifting, then putting down the e-brake.
Jul 14	comment	Which O2 sensor is bad? @clifgriffin - I'd consult a Haynes/Chiltons manual to find out where Cylinder 1 is, and that'll give you front/back since your engine is transverse-mounted. Since Sensor 1 is before the catalytic converter, that would be considered "upstream".
Jul 14	comment	Engine Size and Fuel Consumption Also of note is that there's a lot more to factor in when considering the fuel economy of a car, than just the drivetrain. There's the weight and aerodynamic profile of the whole system, tire pressure and design, additional running accessories, etc.
Jun 20	comment	CEL 12, 21, and 55 on '94 Jeep Grand Cherokee @Larry Updated OP.
Jun 19	comment	Concealing a radar detector @uosef - You yourself have said that "radar detectors are not allowed where [you] live". That lends to the likelihood that you are in one of many jurisdictions where radar detectors are outlawed. Therefore, this modification would be illegal.
Jun 19	comment	Concealing a radar detector @uosef - I'm sorry, but I don't believe this is the place to ask questions about illegal modifications.
Jun 4	comment	Wheel stuck or fused to drum @qes - In my case, before we got hold of a rubber mallet, we'd tried putting a wood board in the spot and hitting it with a claw hammer. Ended up busting the wood first. Granted, the wood was a bit rotten and a claw hammer does focus the force to a narrower point...
