I spoke too soon. Time to get the Throttle Control Sensor changed. Anyone done this before?

Took the car to a auto specialist who said the first step to most problems is a simple service. Agreed to that and guess what, all fixed. Hasn't happened since and that was 2 weeks ago. He said that if the service didn't fix it the Throttle Position Sensor was the next step. He did say that some of ...

I'm heading off to the simpson desert in July and there appears to be a couple of issues I need to get looked at before I go. They are: 1) The main seal is leaking but not a heap.

The above set up has caused a problem though, I can not get side rails installed ...

Was running in low range that day and had a clean radiator with new coolant. As I said it was only serviced a few days before.

His mechanic has offered to check the cooling system to see if there are any faults. Any advice on what he should be looking for?

A mate of mine recently bought a Jeep Cherokee, a 1994 model I think. Anyway 2 days after having the car serviced we went for a drive on Stockton to see how it goes in the sand. It went OK until it started to over heat. Now both of us have very little mechanical knowledge but we lifted to bonnet ...
