Why would the check engine light come on at 87000 miles on a 1999 Kia?

If the vehicle is running fine and the light is on steady (not blinking) it could be something as simple as the gas cap was not closed all the way or needs to be replaced. Drive it to KIA or authorized repair shop and have them check it out. A Steady light usually means it is a minor problem. IF the light is blinking or the car is running rough you may need new spark plugs and/or wires. If this is the case, do not drive the car more than you have to until you get it checked out as you could damage the car. If you are the original owner, the 100,000 mile warranty covers only the engine and tranny at 87000 miles, it is no longer bumper to bumper. If you are not the original owner, call your local KIA dealer and ask them if the car is still under warranty. My 1998 and my 2001 KIAa both have had warranty work with no real hassles. I do not know how to reset the light if you fix the car yourself though. Catalytic converter is probably going bad. Kia's are known to go bad around that mileage.

How do you change a 2001 Kia clutch?

It's not an easy job! You have to disconnect the tie rods from the wheel spindles. Then you pull the CV shafts out of the gearbox. Then disconnect the speedometer cable and any other wires or sensors. You'll then disconnect the clutch linkage and start removing the bolts holding the transmission to the engine (they will go around the transmission in a circle). Once those are out, you should be able to pull the transmission away from the engine.

There will be 5 main components to a manual transmission clutch system:

1. Flywheel: This is the engine side of the setup. It's like a brake rotor and the pressure plate is bolted to this.

2. Pressure plate: This is bolted to the flywheel on the engine.

3. Clutch disk: This is sandwiched between the flywheel on the engine and the pressure plate. It is this device that transfers motion and torque therefore making the actual connection between the engine and the transmission / wheels.

4. Throwout bearing: This presses up against the fingers on the pressure plate to engage/disengage the clutch

5. Pilot bearing: This sits behind the flywheel and is actually pressed into the back of the crankshaft.

You'll want to unbolt the pressure plate from the engine flywheel. The clutch plate should pretty much fall down when you take it off... Examine the springs on the pressure plate, are any broken? if you shake it, does it rattle? How is the surface? It should be shiny like a brake rotor and free of gouges and rust. If not, you'll need to replace it. If it looks ok, get a can of brake cleaner and spray it down to clean it up. set it aside.

Look at the flywheel. It also should look smooth with no gouges or major deep lines. If, so, it needs to come off to be machined (not an easy job).

There are many ways to remove a pilot bushing from a crankshaft. I prefer the wet toilet paper method. If you stick your finger inside the center of the flywheel, you'll feel the pilot bushing. Wad up a handful of wet toilet paper and stuff it in the hold slowly. Then take a wooden dowel and hammer it into the toilet paper in the center, if all goes well, the toilet paper will force it's way under the pilot bushing and squeeze it out. Clean out the pilot bearing hole and replace with a new one.

ALWAYS REPLACE THE THROWOUT BEARING! Look at the back of the transmission. There should be a throwout bearing sitting in a clip on the shaft. Remove this and replace it with a new one. Lube the part of the shaft that the pilot bearing travels on with antiseize.

Get a clutch alignment tool that matches your clutch tooth arrangement and put the new clutch disk on it. Slide the disk and alignment tool into the flywheel and also the pilot bushing. It should line up and sit nicely.

Then take your pressure plate and line it up with the mounting holes on the flywheel over the clutch and alignment tool. tighten loosely. Once all bolts are in place, torque them to at least 60 PSI in a star pattern. You now should be able to remove the clutch alignment tool and the clutch should stay in place between the flywheel and the pressure plate.

Line your transmission shaft up with the hole and gently slide it in through the pressure place, through the clutch plate, through the flywheel and into the pilot bushing. You must keep the transmission level w/the engine or you'll mess up the clutch plate alignment and need to loosen the pressure plate to re-align it again. Once it's lined up and flush, replace the bolts following the same torquing procedure as above. Grab the clutch fork and try to move the clutch by hand (it should be possible on that car). It should be hard, but not impossible. It should be pretty quiet w/ no squeaks. Attach all cables and clutch linkage. Test the clutch from inside the car. It should engage and disengage quietly with no major friction. Insert axles and reconnect to the spindles. Attach tie rods. Make sure everything is tight.

Test out the car and clutch. If it's slipping, or engaging too close to the floor, you may need to adjust the linkage.

How much gas would it take to drive 731 miles in a 2005 Kia minivan?

Figure out the mileage - how many miles do you get per gallon? Take that number and divide it into 731. If you get 28 miles per gallon, it would take you (731 divided by 28 =26.1) about 26 gallons of gas.

No reverse automatic transmission 2002 kia rioShifter wont go into park and there is no reverse. Transmission howls but drives good?

If the automatic transmission on a 2002 Kia Rio won't go into park and there is no reverse, there is a problem inside the transmission with the gear bands. Each gear has a separate band and sometimes they wear out. New bands need to be put in or a new transmission needs to be installed.

Where is the drain plug on a 1990 Harley Davidson fxr evolution?

On the left side of the bike (as you are sitting on) behind the triangle shaped cover there is a 3/4 inch oil line that comes from the oil tank and terminates at a dummy plug held in place by a spring clamp. Using a hose clamp pliers, slide clamp back and pull line free. Direct hose downward to a waste oil container and drain oil, Be sure to remove oil filler cap (under seat) as this will aid in the oil flow as it drains. Another trick is leave oil filter off, replace oil drain line back on dummy plug replace clamp and fill oil reservoir. Leave oil filter off, place shallow pan beneath the spot where oil filter mounts and start bike. Watch oil as it flows from where oil filter mounts into shallow pan waiting till oil runs clean, (approx a minute) flushing out all black dirty oil from lines and engine ensuring 100 percent clean oil!! Shut off bike, clean any oil spills, attach new oil filter, fill oil reservoir to proper level and you're done! Reassemble and it's riding time!! Hope this helps!
