There's not really anything to tune up on cars now days. Any shop can do maintenance as long as they do it right. I have no idea what a "lock on the trans" means.

It's nothing to do with the throttle position sensor. It's probably a vacuum leak or sticky idle air control solenoid.

Nobody can say. A well maintained bike can last 100,000 miles, but many of them are trashed by 20,000. Somebody who knows their way around bikes will have to check it out.

Look at the 10th number in the VIN for the model year.

You "govern" it with the throttle. If you don't trust yourself not to go too fast, stick with your mini.

You're kidding, right? it's 4 bolts. How many "sequences" can there be?

Feel the coolant lines going to the core. If they're both hot the core and circulation are fine. That means it's the blend door in the vent system that mixes hot and cold air. Most of those are bad in 25 year old vehicles.

The man saying that carbon residue is scratching the cylinder tells the whole story. The only way carbon will scratch cylinder walls would be if it's in diamond form. The guy is a crook who's stealing your money. The engine keeps going bad because he'snot doing the job.

XL can be anything from a hybrid Escape to a huge E-350 van.

The XJ700J, K, L, N and S are air cooled 2 valve engines. The X is a water cooled 5 valve engine. Cs are just California versions of the J, K, L, N and S. J is 82, K is 83, L is 84, N is 85 and S is 86.

You don't have to, but it will make the engine start a lot faster the first time you run it after changing the filter.

You might want to do 30 seconds of research before you babble like an idiot any further. Verizon is using the same LTE 4G technology that AT&T will. And CDMA vs GSM has nothing to do with iphone being AT&T. It's just a business decision based on the amount of subsidy AT&T shells out for the...

Pretty much, make sure all engine sensors are working properly. Overdrive is disabled by any one of half a dozen sensors. Chrysler like to change how it's controlled about every five minutes and doesn't like to publish the details so it's hard to list them.

They sound like hives from an allergic reaction. If a good antihistimine is compatible with whatever other medicine you're taking, it should clear them up in a few hours.

Any vehicle can go 300k, but few do. Guessing how many miles are left is just that. A guess.

It is. You don't have to pop the head and scrape carbon on a 4-stroke but you do have to maintain cam chains, valve clearances and contend with valve train wear and tear. I had a 2-stroke you could disassemble in two minutes flat for cleaning or overhaul. You won't do that with a 4-stroke.

Don't listen to idiots telling you to reset the light. Get it read, or buy a $50 code reader and read it yourself. Don't ignore it or guess what it is. Most car parts stores will read it and reset it for free.

It won't run perfectly for long. The coil is hooked up through a ballast resistor and should only get about 6 volts. That resistor could be the problem or an alarm system could be breaking the circuit. It's not the ignition switch because the ECM wouldn't be running and it's not the ECM because...
