VW Sharan
The Sharan is a large 5-door minivan manufactured by Volkswagen since 1995. To lessen harmful gas emissions, the company launched the 2006 Sharan model with a 2.0 L dual-fuel engine, which could work with either liquefied petroleum gas or gasoline.

Timing belt on VW caddy?
Asked by Wiki User
If the water pump is driven by the cam belt then change the water pump at the same time.
What will a bad mass air flow sensor cause?
Asked by Screwhed281
What will a bad mass air flow sensor cause?
Mass Air flow sensor regulates amount of air coming in to the amount of fuel being used. If this sensor is bad you would have either a overly rich or lean fuel condition. Check the fuel pump as mass air flow sensor has no moving parts and rarely goes out.
Where is the Mas Air Flow Sensor on a Mustang GT?
Asked by Wiki User
I'm pretty sure you will find it right after the air cleaner and the air cleaner outlet tube, it measures the air flowing into the engine. it helps to determine how long to hold the injectors open. you will need to unplug the wiring connected to it. Alot of time just removing it and spraying the inside with mass air flow cleaner spray will solve your problem without having to buy a new one.
1996 vw sharan heater blows cold cabin hot?
Asked by Wiki User
can you please clarify what you mean, do you mean that the front heater blows cold but the rear blows hot or do you mean that when the heating is on cold it blows hot? many thanks paul
Why do you have no spark on Cylinders 2 and 3 on a 1999 Plymouth voyager replaced PCM and same problem?
Asked by Wiki User
replaced ignition coil pack, PCM and spark plugs. No signal comes from the computer to fire plugs 2 and 3, but 1 and 4 are firing nicely. The van WILL NOT start, but -- at times -- it tries. Please help. There is possibility that I bought a faulty PCM with the same problem that I had from the original, but I dunno.
How do you select the right flow meter for your application?
Asked by zhei thang
Flow meter categories based on fluid
Some flow meters can be easily eliminated because they simply will not work with the application. For instance, electromagnetic flow meters will not work with hydrocarbons and require a conductive liquid to function. Many flow meters cannot measure gases or slurries. Listed below are some of the main flow meter categories paired with the fluid type the meters can handle.
Gas – Coriolis Mass, Thermal Mass, Ultrasonic, Variable Area, Variable Differential Pressure, Positive Displacement, Turbine
Liquid – Coriolis Mass, Thermal Mass, Ultrasonic, Variable Differential Pressure, Positive Displacement, Turbine, Electromagnetic
Slurry – Coriolis Mass, some subsets of Variable Differential Pressure, Electromagnetic, Ultrasonic
Vapour – Vortex, Ultrasonic, Diaphragm, Floating Element

What to look for on a 2000 Taurus-Sable to correct P0171 P0174 Cleaned Mass air flow replaced coil 3 repaired vacuum leaks on valve covers?
Asked by Wiki User
look for vacuum leaks downstream from MAF if you find nothing the MAF may need replacing.
Answer:My 2000 Mercury Sable with a 24V DOHC 3 liter Duratec tripped the diagnostic trouble codes P0171 and P0174 (system too lean banks 1 and 2). I pulled off the 2 rubber elbow boots on the vacuum lines leading to the air intake covers and they were deteriorated (ripped apart as I removed them). Although they were 90 degree angle boots, I replaced them with 45 degree boots I found on a Taurus at the junk yard. The "check engine light" came on again on the 3rd trip. Ran my finger under the barely visible rubber elbow on the vacuum hose under the housing containing the MAF sensor (I presume the hose leads to the PCV valve) and felt a split in the rubber. To avoid the major hassle of taking off the air intake manifold, I wrapped that section of hose tightly with electrical tape. I erased the codes with my scanner and haven't had a problem since. My next steps would have been to check the EGR valve and sensor, DPFE sensor, PCV valve, and air intake manifold gasket.
It is also common to find loose clamps or splits in the snorkel between the MAF sensor and the throttle body, and it is also possible the small rubber gasket of the upper plenum to intake manifold is slightly leaking..... these will often only leak for a minute or so at a cold start then seal when warmed up, but already set the code when cold.
Why would the floor on a car's passenger side get wet when it rains?
Asked by Wiki User
Best bets: leaky windshield or passenger side window molding.
you might want to take the cover off that goes across the lower front part of the windshield usually this includes removing the wipers look for a obvious hole or crack in the joints if none are there put a garden hose up in this area and turn water on then get inside car on passenger side and look to see where water is coming from,
As a certified auto mechanic, I am often asked this very question. I usually recommend closing the passenger side door when leaving the car for the night. Other solutions are possible of course (some people prefer to carry a large roll of cling-film in the glove compartment and use it to seal the passenger-side doorway after parking), but I believe this is the most efficient and time-effective solution. It also makes use of a little-know design feature of the car, its hinged and fully-locking doors. How's that for serendipity?!?
I own a 1996 Grand Am GT and it leaked on the passenger side. (Apparently, these cars are notorious for this type of leak.) After checking the windshield and the seals, the problem was actually a cracked seal behind the firewall. When I pulled the carpeting up and underneath the glove box area, I could see beads of water were forming in a small hairline crack where the seal is. Pull the carpeting and the rubber back and take a look there if all else fails. The problem was back behind the firewall, and the water found entry at the point of least resistance, as it pooled at that spot with nowhere to drain due to the design of the car. I had it fixed for about $250.00. No leaking since!

Why air flow is maintained at 30 percent of total air for boiler purging?
Asked by Wiki User
The basic objective of purging is to clean up the residual combustibles within the combustion chamber of the boiler rather furnace. The amount of purge air is determined by purpose of the purging. In boiler, out of 100% of the total air, about 30% is to fulfil the stoicheometric requirement of combustion and about 70% is the excess air.
Therefore, 30% air flow is sufficient to blow off the unburnt incombustible and saving thereby unnecessary wastage of fan power.
In another aspect, more than 30% supply may initiate explosive uncontrolled combustion of accumulated combustible within combustion zone if the air: fuel ratio is more air rich and having sufficient temperature to get ignited.
Therefore, assuming maximum 100% fuel availability at the time of purging within the combustion zone purging air is limited to 30% to avoid the air-rich condition as well as to complete the process of purging
