    Oil in spark plug tubes

    I got a 2008 mazda 6 with the 2.3 4cyl. It's only running on 2 or 3 cylinders. Went to pull the plugs and there is oil in #2 and #3. Is this a simple gasket fix? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    Possible bent steering column.

    Went hunting and camping this weekend and I had to put the truck through some mud. I got in a rut that was going to be too deep ahead of me so I tried to turn the wheel a bit to get out of the rut.

It needs a good tune, brakes and the front door barely over laps the rear door. I don't know how I'm gonna go about...

    2001 Chevrolet 1500 motor swap.

    My engine started burning oil and the intake gasket is blown... I was think about selling the truck instead of rebuilding the 4.3 untill my cousin totaled his 2000 1500 with the 5.3. I'm thinking about taking my engine and transmission out and sticking his in. I have a week to do my research...

    Truck shaking.

    My truck has a bad shake at 65mph-75mph and i feel sort of like a bump like something is loose or the engine is missing. Motor runs and sounds good at every other speed and the ride is smooth as I could ever expect it to be at other speeds. This morning my brakes made a little noise and started...

    Rain is getting in my boss's truck.

    My boss has a 2008 f250 and when it rains water leaks in from just to the left of the steering wheel.. I know on some Chevy cars the weather strip can let water in if it gets damaged. Is there anything like this on fords or any quick and easy checks or fixes?

    Ok. I have read about the 396ci small block and I know the 396ci big block was used in many production vehicles. My question is. Was the 396ci small block used in any production vehicle from factory?

    Chevy parts.

    When I had my dodge and was on dodge forums, they had websites just for dodges. The sites had performance parts, and all aftermarket parts. Anyone know a site just for Chevys? Or if they have any?
