    spare tire, leave it or remove it?

    You're definitely going to notice if a 30 or 35 series tire is flat. At first you'll think something is wrong with the alignment, but you'll definitely notice.

    My car won't start... it cranks but never catches.

    Hi all, I think I may have a relay problem. I'm not sure which one, though, so please allow me to describe the symptoms. On the way to work I hit a small pothole and my car lost power. I coasted to a stop and re-started it and it started and drove okay. I parked the car at work and then...
