      <title>GM Drivers Rattled By Engine Noise</title>
      <description>Some GM truck, SUV and minivan owners may complain about a rattle-type noise coming from the engine area at approximately 1,800 to 2,200 rpm. The rattle-type noise may be caused by torsional vibration of the balance shaft.</description>

      <title>The Logic Behind Automatic Temperature Controls</title>
      <description>Simple manual temperature controls are being replaced with digital push button settings and computer logic. Today's new car buyers want separate controls for the driver and front seat passenger, and triple-zone rear A/C in minivans and SUVS with a separate control head in the rear to keep the kiddies or mother-in-law comfortable.</description>

      <title>Fuel Injection Diagnosis</title>
      <description>For the engine to start and run smoothly with no stalling, hesitation or misfiring, the injectors have to deliver the proper amount of fuel with every squirt. This is especially important on late-model engines with sequential fuel injection.</description>

      <title>Investigating Intermittent Stalling Problems </title>
      <description>Intermittent stalling also can be caused by a bad idle air bypass motor or idle speed control motor. If these devices fail to provide the correct idle speed, the engine may die. Sometimes the fault is in the PCM or the inputs to the PCM. The factory programming may not provide enough idle speed when the A/C is on, when the alternator is under high load or when the temperature is unusually hot or cold. The fix here may be to reflash the PCM with the latest OEM update.</description>

      <title>Hose &amp; Reels</title>
      <description>There is, however, one common denominator between today's air tools and ones made years ago. The element that all these tools need, which is many times overlooked or taken for granted. Here is a riddle for you: If a gasoline engine can't run without gasoline, then what does an air tool need to operate? You guessed it! Air! Pneumatic tools need air that is clean, dry, and the correct pressure and volume in order to perform the way they were designed.</description>

      <title>Fuel System Foul Ups</title>
      <description>A vehicle's fuel level must be accurately measured by the PCM in order to detect evaporative leaks. Consequently, newer fuel gauge configurations often incorporate a small module that may require as much as 20 minutes to compute the actual fuel level in the fuel tank.</description>

      <title>The Subaru Boxer Engine</title>
      <description>According to their engineers, these high-powered engines are ideal for all-wheel-drive applications used in Subaru vehicles because they are inherently compact — short and low. The layout concentrates its mass in a small area and contributes to a lower center of gravity.</description>

      <title>Oil Leak or Oil Weepage Can Result in Burning Smell</title>
      <description>Once an oil leak is verified with a black light test at the head gasket joint, replacement of the head gasket can be performed. If the head was damaged by chip contamination, the head should be replaced. A revised "service-only" gasket is now released for both of these cases.</description>

      <title>Tackling Timing Belts</title>
      <description>According to the service writer, the 4Runner had spent several weeks at a shop in a neighboring community having a new timing belt and water pump installed. The neighboring shop evidently couldn’t get the engine to start, so the service writer asked if I would have time to check it out and, if possible, get their customer's vehicle on the road again. Obviously, there was more to the story than just a broken timing belt, but I, nevertheless, agreed to take on the mysterious cranking, no-start diagnostic project.</description>

      <title>Belt and Hose Inspections</title>
      <description>The A/C compressor and power steering belt also had to be removed before the alternator drive belt could be accessed. Years of corrosion made removing the A/C compressor belt more challenging than it should have been, and an even greater array of tools was required to budge the tensioning pulley from its corroded mounting. Perhaps this example explains why many quick-service facilities give hose and belt inspection a relatively low priority on their service menus.</description>

      <title>Getting a Charge Out of New Engine Technology</title>
      <description>Auto manufacturers are somewhat hesitant about PHEVs, saying consumers don't want to be burdened with plugging in their vehicle each night. In fact, some hybrid makers have gone out of their way to market their current gasoline/electric hybrids as "plug free." But that sentiment may be changing, especially now that gasoline has hit more than $3.50 a gallon in much of the country.</description>

      <title>Servicing Quadrajet Carburetors</title>
      <description>Unlike any other carburetor on the market at the time, the Quadrajet nestled its float bowl between its two primary venturis so that intake air would cool the float bowl assembly. The float bowl’s fuel volume is also kept to a minimum to maximize fuel circulation through the float bowl. Both features drastically reduce fuel percolation in the float bowl when underhood temperatures reach a high extreme.</description>

      <title>The Lowdown on Engine Sealing </title>
      <description>Today's engines must be robust enough to withstand a hostile environment for such a long life, and without leading to gasket failure. A gasket needs to keep things such as engine oil, coolant, vacuum and combustion properly separated within an engine. In order to achieve this, gasket engineers have tried various materials to seal the engine.</description>

      <title>Understanding Operating Strategies </title>
      <description>The operating strategy programmed into the engine computer tells the PCM how to react to various operating modes. Unfortunately for the driveability technician, the reactions of the operating strategy to various operating modes may produce data streams that don't represent reality.</description>

      <title>Electrical Wiring in Cars</title>
      <description>After much trial and error and a great amount of frustration on my part, I found that all of these failures were caused by a wire losing continuity inside the insulation or at a terminal evidently crimped over the insulation on the wire. Not that this is a common failure; as a matter of fact, it's relatively rare. In 40 years of repairing motor vehicles, I had previously encountered this condition only once or twice.</description>

      <title>Cooling System Antifreeze Requirements</title>
      <description>The aftermarket has always had a knack for simplifying things the OEMs have complicated, and coolants are no exception. Coolant suppliers who have tried to meet the conflicting OEM coolant requirements now market three basics types of coolant: the traditional green formula, plus an orange formula that meets GM’s Dex-Cool 6277 specification, and a yellow hybrid (HOAT) formula for Ford, Chrysler and all the rest.</description>
