Replace A Dead Car Battery

Take out a notebook now and make a list of all the jobs you've had over the sixty years or more you have spent on this planet. Next, match up every type of work you've done with the skills and training you needed to perform that necessary work. Which job did you like the best and why?
When cleaning and polishing your piano, do not use furniture polish. Simply take a micro fiber cloth and dampen it. Make sure it is wrung out well. If you're not sure where to find a micro fiber cloth, you can find them in the automotive department of your local department store or at the local auto parts near me. You can also use piano polishes, which can be purchased from your local music store.
Why go trampling around to find and remove your own part, when another place will do it for you? Because you are able to see the vehicle it is on. Seeing the vehicle can help insure whether the part is good or not. Look the vehicle over before you start wrenching. Does the engine look relatively clean, or is it one big mess of oil and grease?
Settling into the seat next to Little Frankie, who, by the way, had to have weighed in just under what that El Camino he was driving weighed, I introduced myself and begin to tell him where I needed to go. Little Frankie explained he knew just where I was and promptly asked me if I'd like the air conditioning turned on. I'm not sure why, but all I could say was, "I might be able to get by without it, but it sure would make my life a whole lot easier right now." To my surprise Little Frankie began rolling up his window, motioned to mine and reached across to turn on the switch that said a/c. Well, how about that. A 1972 El Camino with a perfectly good working air conditioner.
Battery was a little less than four years old, so I bought a new one. Installed it, and car started right up. However, the ground wire from the body to the terminal post was just about off. On closest auto store from the auto parts store near me, I noticed the electronic volt indicator draining down below normal.
Fix the paint chips before they grow into monstrous ones. Go to an auto store near me and it will possibly have paint touch-up products; something that will match the colour of your car's paint. If nobody has it, go to your dealer.
This might actually be one of the first things you should check. Removing two or three bolts will give you access to the thermostat. Lift the cover away from the top of the engine. You will need to replace this gasket and scrape off the old one before bolting things back together. Pull out the old thermostat and drop in a new one. Replace the gasket and cover and bolt it down. This fix is over.
