Is this normal '95 Chevy Cavalier has been squeaking a lot so sprayed some belt dressing on the serpentine belt and it flew off but there are no cracks in it?

== == This typically is normal but not desired. The bottle might say to spray the dressing while the car is idling but its best to spray it during belt changes or at least be careful just to spray it a little at a time and just on the ridges of the pulleys, not the belt itself or the bolts of the pulleys. If you spray it too much or on the pulleys it makes the tension adjust in the bolts on the pulleys kinda like "unseize" spray for spark plugs, and then quickly tightens it to improve grip, and as a result your belt might pop off. Just be careful.

Your car squeaks when started you sprayed WD40 on and the noise went away for a few minutes then it just came back with that known does that mean its your belt or possibly something else?

What part of the car squeeks? If you're saying the belt makes noise, and it's a serpentine belt... yes, you should replace it. Check the underside, where the grooves are. If you see a lot of little cracks, that's where the noise is comming from. While you have the old belt off, check the idler pulleys and other pulleys for bad bearings. Give them a spin and they should be quiet and turn smoothly... except the alternator, which makes a little noise when the brushes rub. But even then, the alternator should turn freely. It's a good idea to keep the belt in good shape. That keeps you from getting stranded. Yes its the belt that is squeaky i sprayed both belts and when i sprayed them they instantly went quiet after about 20 minutes of traffic driving they were squeaky again its a semi new car???

How do you adjust the sliding door on a 2000 Ford Windstar so it shuts flush?

These doors sometimes can be a pain in the ars to adjust. TAke it to the dealer or a body shop you are familiar with. Adding to this since I had a problem like this. I used a Dry Silicone Lubricant spray and sprayed the latches and all the rollers on the door and it fixed my problem with this. Don't use WD40 or another oilbased lubricant because it will just cause more junk to stick to them and make the problem even worse within a few weeks. Make sure it is a dry lubricant. Sorry if this is a really late answer there are no dates on the questions
