    Bought a car. Guy said the trans was bad and engine needed a sensor. Then said the engine went "clack clack clack" and stalled. Would not start or turn over. Hmmmmm His buddy swears it's a sensor.

    On a BillBoost hunch, I yanked the motor/trans together and found that bad sensor.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    It's a mod and Chance is working on things when he can.

    Are you sure you lost the button, what if it's your mind that you lost?

    Going to be driving over to Milwaukee today, and I'll be picking this up while I'm there. It even comes with all the clips. Not sure whether to put it on my dad's base model, repaint it and put it on the comp g that's just sitting for now, or just put it in my garage.

    Awesome! I didn't know I had it, but I did notice that my steering is very tight on the freeway, which I like, and pretty well assisted at low speeds. <(which basically describes magnasteer, but I never knowingly drove a car with it) Whereas our impala's steering on the freeway is very touchy. Like just slightly moving your hand on the wheel makes it kinda veer out of the lane.

    Anyone know why my engine makes this noise on start up for just 15 seconds or so?
    www.youtube.com/watch?v=voCZG1ZUWZE

    It's always done it as far as I know. The first time I noticed was the first time I got under it after starting it, which was a few months ago. This was the first start-up after an oil change, but the noise is the same even on every start-up.

    Lifters pumping up and rockers clacking???

    I can't really be sure on that one.
