23. Hey Eric, Where can I find some information about how to put my ABS module on my '97 Monte Carlo 3.1L back together? I really cannot afford to replace the module at this time.

24. Hello Eric, I have a 2000 Chevy Blazer LT 4×4 V6, and I have recently replaced the rear brake line due to leakage, and before the replacement, the ABS would kick in when applying the brakes when going down hill and going over medium bumps. After the replacement, the brakes were extremely tight and the pedal felt excellent without the engine running. But when the engine is running, the pedal almost goes down the the floor and I barely have any brakes I have replaced the ABS unit to try to fix the ABS kicking in, but the problem got way worse. Of course we have bled the brakes and the pedal was again, excellent not running and horrible running. The master cylinder is not bypassing its self, but the problem continues and we would like to get it fixed soon. Thanks for the help! -R

29. Hey Eric, just replaced a water pump on my Contour SVT. Started to heat up but I was at my buddys house 2 minutes away so I got it home without getting it at the H.

36. I have an 01 Dodge Dakota, rear wheel drive, 92,000 miles and a 3.9 six cylinder. The transmission  will not shift into overdrive and it starts out in second gear. It shifts normal into drive. (Reverse is OK as well.) When I changed the trans fluid and filter,  everything was clean as it should be, but this didn't resolve my shift problem. What do you think is going on? ( the check engine light is on as well )
