Now, you should be aware of this fact however. That fuse blew for a reason. It sacrificed itself so the wiring or an electronic component doesn't go up in smoke. So the fuse is an important safety device.
If you don't have a Tire Gauge, I recommend you go buy one at your local auto parts near me to keep in your glovebox. Pencil gauges are only $1 are work fine for most people. However Pencil Gauges break quickly, and then can give inaccurate readings. Dial gauges are more expensive, but are more accurate and last longer.
You will now need the special tensioner tool that you borrowed or purchased from the auto parts store near me. Place the tensioner tool on the nut at the end of the tensioner. With the tool securely on the nut carefully apply pressure up and toward the windshield of the car. This will cause the tensioner to slide up and back. Holding the tensioner in place loop the remaining length of belt under the tensioner and onto the alternator pulley.
Replacing windshield wiper blades is an easy-to-do maintenance job. You can buy the replacement rubber at any auto store near me. And, the instructions for installing them are listed on the package.
In the absence of an Owner's manual, search the Internet for your make and model. There are many car specific sites that have all of this information. Also, most auto parts stores carry service manuals for cars that cost less than twenty dollars.
By hooking your 12v batteries together in a Parallel configuration (Pos. to Pos. and Neg. to Neg.) you can tie together as many batteries as you like and still have a 12v system. With the solenoid placed in the Pos. cable coming from your van battery and going to your house batteries so that it is energized only when the ignition switch is in the on position your house batteries will be charged when your motor is running and completely separate of your vehicle electrical system when the motor is not running.
Lead free pewter can also oxidize over time, but it takes much longer and the color is usually more grayish compared to the lead based pewter which is a darker gray or black in color.
Depending on what vehicle you have, you may want to use some chrome polish. buy used parts for cars near me will help keep bumpers, wheels, fenders, and metallic accessories shiny and bright.
The jack that came with your car is almost certainly a type of jack called a screw jack. And there you are straining to work the jack under the car and trying to manipulate the long flimsy crank rod that came with it in an effort to raise the car. And what if you happen to have a flat on a steep incline? That jack will let your car fall and maybe it will be when you have your hand or arm in an unfortunate location? Suppose you are in mud or soft soil trying to change a tire? Get this floor jack. It is only about 24 inches long, it is flat, stable and will raise your car in about 15 seconds with a minimum of effort. Well worth the investment.
I met this owner on facebook. So perhaps my mom IS right. I am living my life on facebook! But how else would I have ever known about the treasures that lie in South Alabama, in a place just down the road from the McDonalds where I met my ex to exchange kids every other weekend for the past 6 years! Who would have known such class and sophistication was just down the road a piece! The place is called THOU ART. And the loot! Let me tell you, there is something for everyone. From designer cowboy boots, lamps with coastal driftwood, jewelry from designers across the South, furniture, children's items, the coolest belt buckles and belts I wish I had snatched up but was too busy with the necklaces with sassy sayings. Oh and don't forget the t-shirts. It is all arranged in a contemporary vibe.
