Weight sensors work in a very simple way. Weight sensors can detect how much weight is being set on top of them much like a scale.
first of all, do you have the right thermostat? ie: winter, summer. if so i would get the radiator checked, it may be getting pluged.
What does the engine code knock sensor mean?
A knock sensor tells the engine computer when one or more of your engine's cylinders are "knocking", that is, exploding the air/fuel mixture in a way that delivers less power and can be damaging to the engine if prolonged. The computer uses this information to tune the engine so that it doesn't knock. If your knock sensor wasn't operating properly, so that it was always indicating a knock, the engine computer's response may have been to change the ignition timing on your engine. The knock sensor generally threads into the engine block. This code may show up intermittently or the Service engine light may be lit constantly. You may notice drivability problems including a lack of power and perhaps some hesitation. There may also be other symptoms. * The knock sensor is faulty and needs to be replaced * There is a wiring short/fault in the knock sensor circuit * Check the resistance of the knock sensor (compare it to factory specs) * Check for broken/frayed wires leading to the sensor * Replace the knock sensor
How do you change spark plugs in a 1995 Mitsubishi diamante?
If your Diamante is the Dohc 6 cyl. motor in it then you have to remove the entire intake manifold to replace the back 3 plugs I did it in about 4 hours with not many tools and I am a female. So it can be done.

Why will your 97 sunfire only rev up to 4000 rpm?
It is a safety feature built into the computer software. It is called a "Rev Limiter". It works by cutting the fuel at the injectors.
this sounds like a problem i had on my 2000 you need to look into having the shifting cable replaced. some of the late 90 models have had a recall on the shifter and if you are in that recall, you can go to a dodge dealer and they replace it for free, that was my case.
Where is the fuel pump and the jets in a fuel injected engine located on a 1994 Nissan Sentra?
The Fuel pump is located in the gas tank of the car. There is usually an access panel under the back seat which will give you access to the top of the gas tank. There is then an access panel on the top of the tank which you will have to remove to be able to disconnect and remove the fuel pump inside. (It's better to do this when the tank is close to empty) Also in a 1994 sentra the engine should have multiport fuel injection which would mean the non-use of jets, instead they use injectors for each cylinder. The injectors are attached to the fuel rail whch is attached to the engine right above the intake manifold.

the front driver and the rear passanger will need to be bleed every day
No normal braking system needs bleeding daily. If you are losing pedal, then there is a leak in the system. Whether it be a fitting or a wheel cylinder or the brake proportion valve or the master cylinder, air is getting in somewhere. Check all fittings first and rule out any visible leaks. Then bleed the brakes starting with the wheel farthest from the master cylinder, i.e. right rear, then left rear, then right front, then left front. If after a few days you once again have not much of a pedal, then the master cylinder may be at fault, barring a leak at any wheel cylinder or proportion valve. The proportion valve is common to leak on these.
How to fix a gas leak on a Chevy Cavalier?
locate leak , if it is close to a union such as a clamp or going from rubber to metal line, try tightening clamp or cutting a small length off rubber hose and applying a new clamp

Is the 2002 Z24 Chevy cavalier equipped with a timing belt?
The z24 models have a 2.4L DOHC engine.If you look at the engine,on the passenger side it is flat.A chain goes all the way around that part on the inside.The chain turns two camshafts(intake and exhaust) and the water pump. So,the answer is "no" it has a timing chain.
Why would a car with a standard transmission not go uphill even in first gear?
Hey Richard==I imagine the clutch is weak and slipping. Have it checked out and replaced if necessary. GoodluckJoe
A temporary "fix" is to buy some baby powder. Find an access hole at the back of the engine where the transmission bell housing is located-- it will show some gear teeth that the starter uses. Have a friend pump on the clutch pedal several times while you squirt baby powder into the clutch hole. Make sure the transmission is in neutral and engine stopped, of course! Don't EVER get under the car with the engine running, please. If you need more than once, start the engine, work the clutch. Stop engine and repeat with baby powder.
The baby powder will soak up any oil on the slipping clutch and provide some temporary "grab" . You still need a new clutch. But I have driven a slipping clutch--carefully--for three months this way. When taken apart, the clutch had pieces all over the bell housing.

Why does your 1994 chev c1500 with a 5.7Lt smell of a strong gas odor at exhaust when idling?
How is it running? Is the mileage ok? Have you checked the computer diagnostic codes? It's possible that the ignition isn't doing well and you're getting unburned hydrocarbons out the exhaust. It's possible that the oxygen sensor is bad and that the engine is getting too much fuel in an effort to compensate. It's possible that there is a problem with the EGR valve or even the catalytic converter.

When do you replace the timing belt on a 2004 Chevy Cavalier?
Actually I believe the engine is a "in line 4" or staight 4. If this is the case the timing belt is actually a chain. Doesn't really need changing. But I've heard of the tensioner and plastic guides do get worn. My 98 Cav is over 220,000 clicks and I still have the original. Just an added footnote, if you change the chain you should change the water pump too.
