Got about 1km down the road and I noticed I lost engine power. I looked at the tach and it was at 0rpm so I took my foot off the gas and it moved up to about 500rpm for a few seconds and then the engine shut off completely. I coasted to the side of the road. Towed home. Engine cranks over but...

Does anyone know where to get a new set of headlight adjuster screws for a 2005 mazda b4000? They are different then the rangers. The bottom adjuster pressure fit plug doesnt stay in place so my headlight is always high on one side. Even when I search 'mazda b4000 headlight adjuster' none of...

I had some noise from my rear brakes and after inspection the rear diff axle seal on the passenger axle had been leaking. When I took off the drums the insides were pretty coated. And when I took out the fill plug from the rear diff I could not feel fluid as far as I could stick my finger in. I...

I have two different looking slide pins on the caliper. I did not notice until I pulled them out so not sure which one went where. I cant find any info in the manual so far. Anyone know?

I have a 98 k1500 reg cab short box truck I want to pickup. It is about an 9hr drive away. Because the truck is short I think I can fit it on a tandem uhaul trailer. My friend said the uhauls have automatic brakes that are fairly good. So I plan to pull it with my 2005 B4000 4X4. Am I nuts here...

It seems the seal is leaking at the CV and diff joint. Does anyone agree or disagree? How hard is it to change? I am hoping I just have to remove the CV and can pound in a new seal? pic

Hi all. Anyone know what this red residue is? It seems to be coming from the AC maybe? It is all over the fan, shroud and many other things. Should I be concerned? pic1 pic2

I recently moved to a new place. The garage floor has some kind of coating on it. It seems like wax (can scratch it with your nail). Since it is looking pretty poor I want to remove it. Any ideas on removal or what it actually is? pic

Hi all. My 2005 4.0L has around 270k KMs. It has started making this sound at idle. It does not happen all the time. Oil level is at where it should be. Sound seems to go away when you give it throttle. click me for sound

Well I don't think this is a big issue but figured I would hear some opinions in the case it is. My truck sat for around 3 weeks. When I started it up there was some whiteish smoke that came from what I believe to be the exhaust, but not certain. I was sitting in the drivers seat and seen it...

I installed a headunit+amp and the sound comes through ok but when there is no sound on there is an pretty loud static 'whitenoise' sound. Even with volume set to the lowest it can be on the headunit. I am running RCA's from the headunit to the amp for signal. I used the amp on a previous...

My floor carpet is wet behind the passenger seat where the jump seat is. I am thinking water is getting past the door weather stripping, is there any other ways this can happen?

I have a constant leak somewhere. So far it seems like I am losing approx a quart every 2-3ish weeks. I have not got it into the garage to check where it is coming from but the drip is from around the oil pan drain plug. I am guessing it is the rear main at worst case. Has anyone replaced the...

What are the opinions on these 'name' parts that rockauto sells? In some cases are they are significantly cheaper than name brands. The description states "Ultra-Power products come from a variety of sources including re-packaged, well-known brands and ISO/TSO/QS certified overseas factories...

Any ideas on how to give these rims a second life. My first idea was to strip the clear and sand them up nice. then hit them with some black paint. Any easy ways to strip the clear and deal with the corrosion?

Well after putting 30k kms on my B4000 (4.0 SOHC) it has started to tick. The engine has about 230,000kms. The previous owner did religious oil changes and I have done my own (usually every 5-7k kms, full synthetic 5w30 with MasterCraft filter). The tick happens only when hot and is especially...

My truck has always had a power steering whine since I got it. From reading around it seems most deem this normal. Recently I have noticed more of a shuttering of the pump when turning the wheel at a dead stop - it is definitely not a whine. It is accompanied by a stiff wheel. It doesnt do it if...

my friend gave me a free ac compressor from a truck in his yard. The AC looks in great shape but it looks like the lines were disconnected for some time and I can see some dust/dust has gotten inside the unit. Should I try it? Can I clean it out?

He started it...I was going 100kph down the highway. I hit him and then ran over his head and neck (said the witness). The bear stumbled for a few minutes but then walked off into the bushes. How does the damage look to y'all? I drove it home and I am not sure if they would write it off - I...
