How do you remove gear knob on ford ba falcon?
Using a LARGE screwdriver & a strap, loop the strap (like a half hitch) over the gear knob so that when you pull on the strap in an anticlockwise direction it will tighten back on itself. Wrap the remaining length of the strap anticlockwise around the gear knob until it is firm.
Using the screwdriver, put the tip of it through the looped end of the strap and begin to tighten it in the anticlockwise direction. The strap should tighten itself to the point that it will grip the gear knob enough to turn it.
This is similar technique to undoing an oil filter with an oil filter strap or filter wrench, and these tools will also do the job as effectively.

How do you replace a door hinge pin and spring in a k1500?
------ 1/15/09 ----- Greetings, the weight has to be taken off the door to change one or both hinge pins. It really is a 2 man operation. You can use a milk crate and blocks of wood to hold up the door from the bottom or if in a garage, or use an adjustable tie strap to hang the door through the open window frame. With the weight off, wiggle the door while tapping the old pin out. (hammer and punch/screwdriver). The new pin comes with a new locking ring, so lube it up and gently tap it in. Do not force it. Wiggle the door until the holes line up and it goes in pretty easy. ---- The spring can be very difficult to install by trying to pry it in place with wedges, bars, or screwdrivers. Most autoparts stores have a special door spring installer tool. It looks kind of like a big pair of tweezers with a threaded bolt in the middle. You tighten the bolt to compress the spring and put it in place.
Its because they are made out of iron (Fe)/ steel which is a corrosive metal, it reacts with the oxygen in the air to produce iron oxide and then this layer flakes away to reveal more iron which then does the same thing again (and so on, so forth)
if there is salt water present, it will speed up the process
only iron 'rusts', other sorts of metals 'corrode' (corrosion)
you can prevent rusting or corrosion by electroplating the object with a less reactive metal such as zinc or aluminum (although these are more reactive in the reactive series, they do not react with oxygen or water as much)
How do you replace a door hinge pin on a 1999 Chevrolet silverado pickup?
Open door as wide as possible. Place jack stands or other object under door for support. Detach speaker, power window/locks wire. There should be a connector that you can take apart. Pry out spring with pry bar. Remove retaining rings from hinge pin. Carefully tap down on upper pin to remove. Have a friend hold the door up slightly to relieve tension. If pin does not fall out grab with vice grips and tap out. Tap upward on lower pin and follow same directions as with upper. Remove bushings by carefully tapping out. Hopefully you have already purchased a replacement pin set. Take the new bushings for the upper and insert them in the bracket attached to the vehicle. Bushing down on the top part of the bracket and up on the lower part of the top bracket. The second set of bushings goes in the lower bracket attached to the door of the vehicle. Upper bushing down and lower up. Have your buddy hold the door in position and insert the pin in the upper bracket from the bottom. The pin for the lower bracket goes from the top of the lower bracket to the bottom. Attach locking pins and pry spring back in to position. Reattach electrical and speakers. Your done. To add my procedure on my 97 Chevy 1500 pickup, the above procedure is right on the mark. However, because I was doing this myself, I opted to use a padded jack on the bottom of the door and used my engine hoist, rolling down the window and getting a very thick towel and strapped the top of the window frame. This made for a very stable setup. Slide the door back slightly, do the work, 30 minutes done.

How can you fix a sun visor in a 1997 Nissan Sentra?
I saw a Sentra with a visor that wouldn't stay up. The owner had taken sticky backed velcro and attached small pieces to the roof and the mating piece to the back of the visor. It seemed to work well, but I think the sticky might let go in very hot weather.
A lot of sellers on eBay have the sun visor clips for sale. Best of luck!
<Correction> The sun visor on my 1997 Nissan Sentra wont stay up either. On close inspection it has nothing to do with the sun visor clips. It looks like the dysfunction is within the visor itself. I don't see any way to repair this without buying a new/used visor.
Your going to need several to remove the front and back seats plus the console to change out the carpeting.
To remove the front seats is easy:
Look under the seats and disconnect the weight sensor/seatbelt sensor/heated seat hookup if it's there.
Slide the seat all the way forward, and using a flathead screwdriver pop up the plastic covers on the back of the seat on the floor. From there use a wrench of some kind to remove both bolts holding the seat down, then just lift up and tilt forward to remove the seat.
To remove the back seat:
Pop the trunk and pull the seat releases on the top of the trunk. Pull the seatbacks down and use a flathead screwdriver to push the outer latches of the seats off while lifting up on the ends and the seats will pop out. In order to get the seat. Look toward the black rail in the back and you should see a small metal wire under the black rail. Just push down really hard and pull back and the it should pop out. Do the same to the other side, and then just ease the seat out of the spot.
To remove the center console:
Twist the base of the shift knob until it comes off the shift ball. Pull on the shift ball to remove it. In the front of the shift boot there is a tab you can squeeze back to lift up and remove the boot. Pull the ebrake up and put a screwdriver in the tabbie to let the cover off that. Pull up on the rear cup holder, and unsnap the three console pieces that fit on the top. Use a socket or wrench to remove the ebrake and one of the body control modules right there, and the two tiny black screws on the sides of the console. Remove anything else and lift up the center console. Also the cigarette lighters are going to need to be disconnected as well.
From there pull the carpet out and replace, enjoy!
