    Hi, I am new to site and auto repair, so can you tell me how to flush my heater core and radiator? Have a 97 ford taurus and been having no heat issues. I checked the box behind the radio, replaced the thermostat, replaced water pump also, and it worked for bout 2 wks. now its not working again. Also how can I check to see if I need to replace my heater core? Please help, it's cold outside.

    Hello,

    I just joined this forum and I read one of your posts about vibrations in the new Ford Escape. I bought a 2010 4 cylinder front wheel drive and noticed a vibration while the car is in drive or reverse and stopped. You said that this is normal in >2.0 liter vehicles that are 4 cylinder. I have also read the same thing for the V6 cars. Do you think this is completely normal to have that vibration, or is it something I should have checked out? Thanks for the help.

    Wiz;
    Didnt need any sarcasum, just your thoughts. Axle looks like a butter knife cut through it. I've seen many axles that were sheared by hot rodding, or raceing. This is a new one on me. This truck was bought 3 months ago from a 63 year old dude. we had the computor checked for raceing or over rev. Thanks for your help anyway.

    Yes the fuel pump should always be on when the engine is running, but when it's first started you usually hear the fuel pump run for a second then it stops. I went ahead and changed the fuel filter and found a little water and trash in the filter. I removed the fuel tank, cleaned it and installed a new fuel pump. Fuel pressure is over 30 PSI and it still has a hard timestarting. What stops the fuel pump from running when you first crank the engine? I noticed when I turn the key on and the fuel pump does not stop running, the truck has a heck of a time starting. As soon as the pump stops when the key is on, the truck starts right away. The check engine light does not come. So it is not putting out any codes. Suggestions? Thanks!
