Ok, I just bought a 190 mustang a couple months ago and I was looking into fixing the heater in it cause it gets pretty cold over here. Anyway, the car blows air but there are components missing from the AC and the heater. What Im trying to figure out are what these two metal [...]

I’m basically car engine illiterate, so I apologize if this is a stupid question. I drive a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix. A few days ago I spilled a little bit of oil as I was adding some. It resulted in a small fire as the engine was hot. Instinctively, I threw flour on the fire [...]

I recently had a fire in the engine compartment in my 1982 El Camino Conquista, and it basically destroyed that whole area. Is it even possible to replace all the electrical in that area and replace the engine for a reasonable price?
