vertical adjusters are found above the outboard side of the lamp assembly. A special Torx wrench (E8) available at an auto parts store is required. The bubble leveler indicator inside the lens assembly should show when the lamp is properly set.
On my 2000 Windstar, the bubble leveler never moved so aiming process became a pure guess.

What is the problem when 2000 tracker 4X4 indicator light flashes?
When the 4X4 indicator light on a 2000 Tracker flashes, it could indicate an issue with the 4X4 system such as a faulty actuator, sensor, or wiring problem. It is recommended to have the system diagnosed by a qualified mechanic to determine the exact cause of the flashing indicator light.
It sounds like your fan also has a light with it. If your wall switch is a two gang box with two switches in it most likely one switch is for the light on only and the other switch is for the fan on only. This can be checked out by installing the fan and making the connection green to green, white to white, black to black. Turn on one of the switches and see if the fan operates. Disconnect this connection and then connect the red wire to the black fan wire. Turn the other switch on. If the fan turns on again, then the two switches were installed to operate the fan and light separately. If this is the case disconnect the red and fan black wires and reconnect the black to black. This is the fan connection. Connect the red to blue fan wire and this is the light on the fan connection.
The wheel bearings on a Mercury Topaz help support the weight of the vehicle and allow the wheels to rotate smoothly. If you notice a humming or grinding noise coming from the wheels, it could indicate a failing wheel bearing that needs to be replaced. It is recommended to have a professional mechanic inspect and replace the wheel bearings if necessary to ensure safe driving conditions.
How often do you need to change the timing belt in a 94 mercury topaz?

P0171 and P0174 (mixture too lean) is a known design fault. Excessive oil is pulled into the air intake plenum above the engine from the PCV tube, and the accumulated oil causes the seals on the isolator bolts holding the plenum onto the intake manifold to fail and leak. The solution is to replace the isolator bolts (current ones have improved seals), intake/plenum gaskets, and possibly some other vacuum hoses. See Ford TSB 03-16-1.
It seems as though your Idle Air Controller isn't responding fast enough. If this isn't working correctly then it can cause the other two codes.
See "Related Questions" below for more on the isolator bolts problems, and more importantly, the fix.

How does a fisherman know what size fish hook to use?
it really depends on what species you are fishing for,on the bait you will be using it also goes on conditions of the water or if the fish are biting "shy" generally the whole concept is to present a bait as "natural" as you can get it so not to spook the fish,for instance if your using maggots i would say a size 16 to 24 for sweetcorn pellet etc.. i would use a 12-14 for bread flake/crust etc..8-10now for a nice lump of luncheon meat i would use 6-8 on the leadger, this is a rough guide for you i have included a URL for you that explains it in more depth hope this helped!!!

What is wrong when no cool air is blowing out of vents when the ac is on in a 2000 Mazda 626?
commonly the compressor has a leak and you lost the freon needed to cool the air. you will need to take it to a shop and have seals checked and system recharged. It should'nt cost more than 150 total depending on labor time, that's always the most expensive
What type of refrigerant is used on a 1998 Ford Escort?
Prior to 1994, R-12 was the refrigerant freon. It should likely be recharged with the same, or have a shop fully empty the unit, and check it for compatibility with the later freon.
If the system is discharged, you'll also need to have it pressure-checked for leaks. Remember, in most states, discharging the unit will cost you a fairly large fine, if not done according to EPA standards.
You'll also need to change the condensor/drier for the AC unit, as leaks in the system, or recharges need the dessicant refreshed. R-12 seems to be a 'colder' refrigerant at a lower pressure, but requires some fairly special handling, and may be more expensive due to the treaties on Freon use.
How do you fix the cruise control if it is sticking in a 92 Chevy Van?
Often, the most difficult part of a repair project is the actual diagnostic phase in which youd etermine what's causing the problem. Without more information it is impossible to tell you what's wrong and what to replace. It can be the module, the brake sensor, switch, connector, speedometer, brake light ground fault or any of a number of other problems and it's impossible to tell you which it is without digging into the vehicle.
What is the purpose of the starter?
A device that initiates a flow of high voltage across the electrodes of a fluorescent lamp.
AnswerFluorescent Lamp Starter
A fluorescent tube has a heater at opposite ends of the tube. These are connected in series with the supply via a 'starter' (a small, heat-operated switch). When the tube is first switched on, current flows through the heaters which then act to ionise the gas within the tube. Once the gas is ionised, it begins to conduct and illuminate the tube. At this point the current flow through the heaters can be discontinued. This is done by the 'starter', a heat-operated switch, which opens a few moments after the current begins to flow. This arrangement is called a 'starter circuit' for a fluorescent tube.
Motor Starter
But there is also a 'starter' for an electric motor. Many motors cannot be started merely by connecting them to the supply. This is because, on starting, many motors demand a very large 'starting current' which reduces as the motor begins to turn. A motor 'starter' is used to restrict the amount of starting current until the motor runs up to speed.

How do you change front wheel bearings on 2003 Lancer ES?
It's front wheel drive. It has no wheel bearings. It has a CV axle. What is it doing? AR 04-01-2008 It was my understanding that there were wheel bearings on front wheel drives; Or at least on every other FWD I have owned. (Including my 2003 Lancer GL 4 door) Actually front wheel bearings on a 03 lancer es are pressed in if you are doing them yourself you will need a press and lots of patients you need to remove your wheel brake assembly the remove the steering assembly from the suspension there is a snap ring in the reer holding the bearing in remove this and press the bearing out froom the front to the back then press the new bearing in I needed to machine a tool to press the bearing in as to not ruin the new one best of luck not an easy task
