    Cant get snowthrower to run?

    I recently was given a MTD brand snowthrower. The thing is in good shape but wont run. As with most throwers, it has a Tecumseh engine and carb, (junk IMO). In the past, on other throwers, I’ve been able to get them running with starting fluid and then they will usually run on their own. In...

    94 Chevy erratic rpms

    Thinking of buying a 94 Chevy Pickup, SS-350. On the test drive everything was perfect except at about 70 miles per hour with the cruise on, when the truck needed to down shift it would kick itself out of cruise. (This was at about 2000 rpm...) Then, at about 72 mph the rpms jumped up and down...
