[Chevelle-list] Dehumidifiers

2004-09-29 Thread chevelle292wagon
Any heating and A/C guys here? I have a dehumidifier in my unheated garage. This is fine when it's warm, but here in SE pennsylvania we get days in winter where it gets damp and dreary and too cool for the dehumidifier to run and not ice up. Any one else have this problem? I can't really afford

John, Did you add a sound system? Maybe radio or amp is always on? Electric choke? Tach? Did you check lights in trunk, underhood, glovebox? Make sure they go out? Just thought I'd throw a few ideas out. Pete Geurds Douglassville, PA

Howdy! My new ride wont start. Thinking it was a starter malfunction, I removed it from the car. When I glanced up at the flywheel, I noticed that 6 teeth were virtually non-existent. It seems like if I spin the motor a little bit, the flywheel will move and the starter will engage on good

Dan , if it does stop on the bad spot, you will need to turn the motor over to get it to a good spot. Not very easy to do unless you happen to have a breaker bar socket for the crank bolt. You really need to get it fixed. A flexplate for an auto tranny is cheap. If its a fly wheel, a shop
