Belts and Fluids

Take normal safety precautions and be careful not to spill it on the ground. Cats and dogs seem to like it's taste, but it's VERY poisonous to them.

View your owner's manual for specifics on the mileage requirements for maintenance. My rule of thumb is to change the belts when you change your spark plug wires and your cap and rotor.

Try spraying "liquid wrench" type oil and let it soak in for awhile. Try heating with a propane torch for 30 seconds or so, then loosening. Don't do both as oil may catch fire. Lastly, try loosening in the wrong direction. Some calipers have left-handed threads and you may be tightening by accident! Good luck.

to find your tensioner pulley just follow belt rout the tensioner is always the smallest pulley and the bracket its on look plastic.now if you have a pump that has a belt around it and the crank shaft pulley only then you need to check the pump set up itself sometime parts are set up that you have to loosen bolts to take tension off belts

No one, antifreeze is poisonous and is not a treatment for anything other than preventing an engine from freezing.

yes it will especially when the torque converter is going into lockup

Try the links in the "Related Question" below regarding belt diagrams for Taurus/Sables.

Don't know for absolute sure that company resources go back to 1992, but pretty sure they've got what you need.

Have it changed to the proper oil.

Yes. I just found out that a very very close friend just did using antifreeze.

You drain it out and replace with new.

One gallon of windshield washer fluid will weigh in at about 8.5 pounds. This is not too heavy in weight, therefore, it should be pretty easy for an adult to carry.

It depends on the belt(s) you're changing. If you're changing multiple belts, then usually one of the pulleys is adjustible and you can loosen the pulley and move it until the belt is loose enough to take off. If you're changing a serpentine belt, then usually there is a special pulley called a "tensioner" that you have to loosen with a socket and breaker bar. Be careful because the tensioner is spring loaded and you are working against tremendous potential energy and it takes some strength to push back against the spring tension and keep a firm grip on the tool so it doesn't snap back and cause injury to you. Trust me, I found out the hard way once :(. Now, if you're changing a timing belt, you have to remove a lot of components to get to the belt. Once you get to the belt, take note of the alignment of the pulleys. This is very important because misalignment of these pulleys can cause severe engine damage. Most manufacturers recommend that you reset the special alignment marks found on the pulleys before installing the new timing belt. Be sure to read the proper service manual before performing such work so that mistakes are reduced and your time doing this is worthwhile. That's pretty much all there is to it.

Low coolant

Cooling fan not operating

Plugged or restricted radiator

System airbound

Hoses collapsing under pressure

Defective radiator cap

Water pump not circulating coolant

Stuck closed thermostat

Missing or broken radiator shroud

Faulty fan clutch (if equipped)

Possibly a problem with one of your belts?

In the RADIATOR. Good luck doing that. It goes in the expansion tank. Open cap cool and add. Let warm up and check level.

there should be a sticker in the engine compartment the shows the routing

I use straight SAE 30 weight. I live in the south and only run my machine in the summer.

I did mine myself for just under $80 with a new pump(Gasket included) from Napa (lifetime warranty). I was seeing between $350 and $400 at shops.

You should check the belt and the belt tension. You should check the belt and the belt tension. **answer** your whole ac system is about to go and stop the engine it happened to me after hearing that sound i let it go for about month or so and my engine stopped two tow trucks a 1300 estimate so i got a friendly mechanic to do the job for 750 dollars and he did it in the winter and didn't add enough freon. but it works good but i came to wiki to find out where to put the freon.

Different countries made legislation against corporal punishment at various times. Some still allow it.

You'll have to first buy new fluid the seals an a gasket... then jack the truck up take the rear tires off.. then remove the differential cover an unhook the driveshaft.. there is a pin inside the differential which is held in by a bolt.. remove that bolt an slide out the pin. then push the axles in an take out the c clips that hold them in.. That will allow you to slide the axles outan replace the seals.. then all ya gotta do is put it back together

Air in a power steering system is caused by low fluid or a leaking seal. When the fluid is low, the pump becomes exposed to the air and causes large bubbles to form.

The viscosity of power steering fluid is not relevant to it's job (within reason) but more it's ability to function under extremely harsh and high pressure conditions. All these fluids are merely hydraulic oils as is ATF with Honda fluid containing an additional lubricant additive needed for their speed sensitive steering gears. Use exactly what the manufacture of your vehicle recommends and nothing else.
