I'm servicing my Mother's car right now and the AC blows warm air when on Max and high fan speed, and the compressor seems to be cycling weird. With the engine turned on and Max AC is running at high fan speed the compressor clutch engages spinning for about 10 seconds, and then it disengages and stops turning for about 10 seconds. It keeps doing this on and off deal until the AC is turned off.
Is what I'm seeing consistent with low freon/R-134a?
Her car did this last spring and I added...

Hey all! I'm a college student rocking Grandma's old 98 sable. It's a beast for it's age, as it was rarely used and very well kept. It hit 100,000 miles just recently, and runs like a champ. The only snag is the audio system. I need a better way to connect a device to the radio. Everything on the car is stock.
Goal: Find a way to solder in an Auxiliary line, or affordably upgrade the radio. I have been using a cassette converter, but it's tacky and gives static. If we can get a good...

My 05 Taurus sel was misfiring in cylinder 2 and 6. I replaced the spark plugs, wires and coil pack and it didn’t help. Then I got some blown resistors in the PCM replaced and the car started up with no misfires but now it won’t rev/drive over about 1800 rpms. I replaced the throttle position sensor, the air flow sensor and crankshaft sensor. None of it helped. My cats don’t seem to be getting too hot and there is no smell from the engine or exhaust. It sounds like it might have a vacuum...

Hi All!
My daughter recently purchased a 2005 Mercury Sable LS for her first car. We picked it up at an auction pretty cheap.
The previous owner installed an aftermarket radio they screwed onto the glove compartment. We removed it cause I can't have a new driver leaning over to change the radio.
I pulled the stock radio out and can't figure out where the antenna wire gets connected ..read more

Hey, I've installed a fair amount of aftermarket radios before, but the factory wiring in this one is confusing me. It's a 1993 Taurus SHO and I'm using a Metra wiring harness, and a Dual head unit. Any help would be appreciated. Also, with the factory head unit in, I couldn't get any sound (not even static) to come through the speakers ..read more

Please take a look at the attached. Can you let me know the part number for the hose-pipe assembly? Even the dealer couldn't find it. If it has been superseded by a new design, then please let me know both the original and current part numbers.
Thanks,
Robert ..read more

Hi. My name is Lois. I recently purchased a 2003 Taurus SES car with 200,000+ miles. I purchased and a friend put new battery in since previous battery wasn't keeping a charge. It started ran fine for three weeks. The other day it started and I drove approximately 28 miles. Four hours later, it would crank or turn over but not start The next day, it would only click click when trying to start. Today, it wouldn't do anything when trying to start. All the interior, dash lights and headlights...
