I hope to get a better answer this time around. I used Lucas fuel injector cleaner several weeks ago just as routine maintenance, not because there were any problems. Ever since, my car sputters and has no power. I have to press the gas pedal to the floor just to get to 40-45 mph. It was...

I have a 1994 Buick Century with 94,XXX miles on it. Several days ago, I thought that it would be a good idea to run a bottle of Lucas fuel injector cleaner through the gas tank. Vehicle was running fine at that time, I just thought that given the age, it would be good to clean out the fuel...

Not sure what the problem may be, but when you start driving the first time of the day for the first 5-10 minutes, if you even lightly tap the brake pedal the brakes will lock up and the tires squeal from skidding. I just had all new calipers, hardware, pads, and rotors put on the front about 8...

Just had the rear drum brakes completely redone with new hardware due to a leaking wheel cylinder. Ever since they were done, when you press the brakes (especially notice going downhill) the entire car vibrates and it makes almost a grinding noise which sounds like it's coming from the back...

Yesterday the temp gauge started to creep up towards hot and then the check engine light came on. I added more coolant thinking that it might have been low. Ran it for awhile longer and now the temp gauge seems to have come down to a more acceptable level and check engine light went out...

When I go over bumps, pot holes, etc. I get a thumping noise coming from the rear passenger side of the vehicle. Sounds like a strut mount, but I am told that it only has shocks in the rear. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
