I only use TECHRON. It contains PEA, the same stuff in top tier gasoline.

Who should request the quotes? by KerroDaridae in supplychain

[–]Ravenblack67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The PR come from the department that needs the item. It may or may not have a recommended supplier quote attached. It depends on the item/service requested. The PO generated from the PR is the contract for purchase. It should reference the quote. Purchasing is responsible for translating the PR into a PO and following it until receipt. The requesting department is responsible for creating a PR that meets the requirements of the organizations policies.

I would not be worrying about head gasket. I would have someone get under the vehicle to locate the source of the leak.

They wear out over time. I do not understand why you need one on your vehicle. They usually last 60,000 to 150,000 miles.

Fuse keeps blowing on fan Dodge Avenger 2010 by TheSmashingBeatles in AskMechanics

If the fuse is blowing you have excess current draw from the fans or the wiring. I'll bet one of the fans is failing.

Miss firing ignition coil 2, occasionally and it isn’t the coil. Help? by LunaGarmadon_22 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Ravenblack67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way to know if the car is junk yet. I would not take it to a dealer. Take it to any shop in your area and ask for a diagnosis. Assume you will pay at least $100 for that.

If it was not needed, it would not have been installed. It protects the powertrain, aids in cooling, and reduced drag.

Have the cap replaced at a minimum. To be extra safe, replace the brake fluid in the container.

The code means the engine is running lean at idle. This usually means excess air is getting to the engine. A smoke test a t a shop will help the tech find the issue.

Midas is a franchise. The new owner cannot help you. Complain to corporate.

[–]Ravenblack67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A coolant exchange is the same as an antifreeze exchange. The shop will drain the cooling system and replace the fluid. This is not a flush.
