Help! Broken lug nut on wheel!

Re: (cdizzle)

Still full of coolant this morning (before I drove 21 miles to work without the temp gauge moving from normal), but when I got home (after the white smoke-fest), I found the radiator empty.

Things to consider:
1) Up-front cost is typically higher on a diesel
2) Oil changes typically cost 3x more on a diesel
3) Fuel costs are higher than gasoline (assuming regular, perhaps $.40/gal....

Re: How to figure out bolt pattern on my wheels. (vtec_crazy)

Re: (mgags7)

It's a great system. They say to buy the stretch kit, but for skis or boards, don't worry about it. If you want to put a kayak on, get it (trust me), but for skis (or bikes, for that matter) it...

Final drive = diff gear ratio?

I know, my ignorance is showing through here, but it's a valid (I think) question.

Is the "final drive" (4.266, in my case) the same as the diff. ratio?

Thanks for feeding my brain! ...

Re: help identify clutch noise!??? plz (japmarket1)

Apply some grease to the spring on your clutch pedal.

If that doesn't fix the problem, I'd say that I have no idea. Good place to start, and it's cheap!
