Ya I wish I could do my own.....I will in time though, just need someone to guide me through the first time.

 

Check with your local community college. They sometimes have a course designed for the home mechanic. Where I used to live it was called Basic Maintenance and Tune-up. They had you working on your own car. Just a thought. Check with AutoBadges for any parts you might need. He's got quality parts, and good prices!

 

Ya I might look into that college course on basic mechanics...sounds sweet. How much is it though to attend?

 

probly depends on the college

 

Back in 91 I accidently took the course. I didn't read through the description. All I saw was a Tune-Up course, and said, COOL I can learn something. WRONG! I was already a mechanic, so they made me Lab Assist the first meeting. Anyway, it cost me $30.00 for my mistake. But I had fun teaching others. And I was offered a position. No, I declined, as I was making lots more as a tech. And they wanted me to jump through hoops to get a teaching credential.

 

I used the fuel injector cleaner (different from the complete fuel system cleaner, but I don't know how/why it's different) and I gained 1 mpg in city driving. whoop whoop

 

Fuel system cleaner is usually more caustic, and typically introduced into the fuel system under higher pressuers. That is not to say that some products call themselves Fuel System Cleaner. Also, real "Fuel System Cleaners" are not generally available to the public.
