I have always had problems with my 1997 nissan Pathfinder, if it was something that got fixed than it was something else.
Just recently brought my POS in to get inspection. I just paid for a Brand new Windsheild, new parking lights, and the guy i brought it too said that whoever had it beforre me was an idiot because some wires were cut and removed for my check engine light. and some wires were corroded and rusted. and he had to reset my trucks computer so i can drive it around with a temp inspection to get some milage to inspect it. so i paid another 375 bucks for that and my back breaks.
I knew that there was a problem with my pulleys that they were rusted and my guy needed to replace them and a new belt. But I was gunna wait till friday when i got paid! HMPH MY TRUCK DIDNT WANNA WAIT!!! i was driving home at night from work which i need a working vehicle to get back and forth to since i am a Manager on Duty getting paid ****! but My Pulley decided it didnt want towork any more and suddenly my sterring wheel was hard to turn. Called my aunt and she got me at 12 am! and we got it to a bar parking lot so we can attempt to drive it to the car guy the next day!
well my aunt and uncle got it there. and now there is another problem as well.. something with my oxygen sensor that it's not working with the inspection process and i put over 150 miles on it? what could that problem be. and how much all together to get my pulley's replaced as well.... (i live paycheck to paycheck and cannot afford to sell/ get a new car right now)Car Problems. need Advice for a Girl who knows nothing! (sorta long)?
A new belt, and an idler or tensioner pulley isn't difficult to change. An O2 sensor is easy too.
When the computer is reset, it needs to go through a drive-cycle to reset the emissions monitors. The emissions monitors check the evaporative emissions system, the catalytic converter, and engine misfire, among others. If the computer detects a problem, it will turn the check engine light back on.
The guy you bought it from never got the check engine light fixed. Instead he cut the wires so he could sell it with the check engine light off. But when you hook up to the engine computer, it will tell you that the malfunction indicator lamp is supposed to be lit because there is a problem.
Did your mechanic say what codes were on before he reset the computer? That would be helpful information.Car Problems. need Advice for a Girl who knows nothing! (sorta long)?
From what you say, the person that sold you the truck cheated you. The wires that were cut caused the ';check engine light'; not to light so that you would not know that the truck would fail inspection.
These days, it is best to get an inspection test before you buy, for this very reason. The oxygen sensor is just one of several sensors used by your trucks computer to keep the motor running correctly and not cause polution!
The only thing to do now is to get the mechanic to give you an estimate on the cost to fix the wires and replace what ever sensors that are defective. It will cost a lot of money because the sensors are not cheap and neither is the mechanic's labor.
I really don't know... your O2 sensor will throw a code for anything.. it could be bad, or the engine could be running lean or rich due to a bad MAP or MAF sensor.. pully's arn't expensive, and you may be able to change that yourself to keep costs down.. but I really suggest you look for a diffrent vehicle.. you could get a good beater that could get you by for what your going to dump into a money pit
Well, a belt change is not complex, it just takes a little work, a crowbar (when I do it, but it's my car), and a ratchet. You can usually borrow a belt-tension gauge from an auto parts store.
If they are not busy, and you are nice, sometimes they will even help you or walk you through it (or sometimes a random, bored guy there will do it, like I have before).
An O2 sensor is EXTREMELY easy to replace. I don't remember where it is in an Xterra, but you literally unplug it, then unscrew it like a regular bolt, usually.
As for the steering wheel, it sounds like when the fan belt (drive belt) loosened up, it was not powering the power steering pump. A new belt should fix both problems.
Personally, I have never been a fan of the Xterra ever since I first saw it, and the problems a friend of mine has been having with hers are not improving my opinion of it any.
As far as the guy that sold it to you, you can try seeing if your state has any sort of ';lemon laws';, but those usually only apply to dealers, not private sales.
Next time, buy a car that HAS the inspection already, or make the seller get one before you buy it.
id get a work shop manual that will show you how to do most work your self id get it looked at by a mechanic and find out all thats wrong with it t and get your parts from a wreckers it can save big $ also you can find heaps of people that can help out with work cheep as a mechanic iv dune lots of work for a carton of beer on my days off most cars you can get fault coads out with out having to go to a work shop agane you can find that nfo n a shop manual

I need some advice on this girl that i like?
dont really want to go out with her just get to know her, but im pretty sure i pissed her off or freaked her out or something like that, we graduate highschool in 2 weeks and yeah would really like to repair the situation we used to talk sometimes but yeah not now she doesnt give me a cold shoulder or anything she just doesnt talk to me when she sees me and im kinda of awkward around girls unless they talk to me first, and yeah okey i told her that which was pretty stupid, and she said we could chat sometime but i ended up screwing up that opportunity. Im going to graduate from applecross in like 2 weeks, would really like some advice that helps
thanksI need some advice on this girl that i like?
Most basic advice ask her what happened. Think about anything you might have done that would have violated her trusting you. You might figure out it, but it is still all assumptions until you ASK her.
If you have asked her and she says ';nothing'; than she obviously is having an issue with either trusting you or she has feelings beyond what you have and feels embarrassed to share them.
Either way you cannot make her talk to you. If she isn't giving you the total brush off than she still cares about you. Don't push to hard but you need to just ask her why things have changed and let her know you are totally willing to listen.I need some advice on this girl that i like?
Dude, man up and talk to her. If she is pissed off or freaked out, just explain to her what you really meant and that you want the two of you to be friends. Girls really aren't an enigma :-)
And about the awkwardness around girls: 1) girls sometimes feel awkward around guys too, so we know the feeling. Don't let it stop you. 2) Take a deep breath and get out of your head, don't over think it and just talk to her.
Hope you guys fix it before graduation!
Good Luck!
Relax, breathe, stop focusing so much on what you call mistakes, if you keep reliving mistakes made in the past you'll just amplify them and won't focus on the time that is now. Your projection of this girls feelings are thoughts without fact, your feeling that you pissed her off is just an illusion. She may like you man. Just be yourself, concentrate, live in the moment, forget regret, do something special for her. I was in the same boat man and the worst she can do is reject you. Life goes on, far better than not knowing. Live in the now brother.
I think that it sounds like you like her sort of, and she probably likes you too.
I think its a good idea to just chill out, say hi when you see her,but don't come off as desperate.
If you really want to get to know this girl,find out what her interests are, etc.
Do you hang with the same group of friends?, maybe try to organize a group thing, go hang out.
Give her attention, but hang back too and play it cool.
Girls like boys with a little aggression but, don't be overbearing.
Hope this helped you a bit.
Good luck and congrats on your graduation.
Remember, life has just begun for you, there are alot of girls out there.

Please! I need advice! Theres this girl I really, really like!?
Im 14. In english, I sit next a real nice girl (shes 14). I've fancied quite a few people before, but usually for their looks. With this person however, I'm infatuated with her personality and her looks. I'm pretty much a nerd and shes popular. Numerous time people have insulted me, she's stuck up for me. Hardly any other girls have done that for me. I've never felt so strongly for someone before. She seems to find me funny. Like when i say my catchphrase; ';oh bollocks!!';. Im kind of wierd i know, but who cares lol. So, overall she doesnt hate me, which is a start isnt it! Also i know for one thing, shes single, becoz ive seen her bebo and shes single.
What are my chances with this girl?
What advice wud you give to me?
please, ive never felt so strongly about someone. i fink about her every second of my life! i really want to start something here. any advice wud be welcom!
also, ive been thinking, wud writing some kind of song or poem for her flatter her or creep her out?! thnxPlease! I need advice! Theres this girl I really, really like!?
Hey you never really know until you ask or write that poem or do whatever is in your heart to do to let her know how you feel! I was pretty fat in school and although I liked a lot of girls I never found out if they liked me or not which I now kind of regret. In a way I am learning a lot of lessons now that I should have learned at your age. She will appreciate your boldness and thoughtfullness. So I say go for it! You really have nothing to loose. If she is interested youve won a girl who you are attracted to both physically and psychologically which is rare and she might feel the same way. If she is not interested, knowing this will be easier to deal with over the long term than wondering. This moment wont last forever, but dont feel you need to rush either! I wish you the best!! Let me know how it goes!Please! I need advice! Theres this girl I really, really like!?
Smile, be friendly, say hello, start a conversation, make eye contact.... go from there.

Need some expert advice with this girl from church! !!!10 points?
Well, I have met this girl at church and I really like her! The problem is This.... A) I'm 33 and she is probably about 23 max... I'm not sure. B) she is very shy %26amp; never carries a conversation. I'm kind of on the shy side too. She sits by her parents at church and it's hard to get her alone. Is it ok to ask her out for dinner or coffee? How do I do it? in the hall? when she is with her parents? When and how?
Additional facts:
It's a conservative baptist church
Her parents look like they are in their late 50's or early 60's
We are both in the same sunday school class, but rarely get to sit together.
I will be baptized on sunday, JUST saved, will she think me too spiritually immature?
BTW she has nothing to do with my relationship with Jesus... That is rock solid!!
Best answer 10 pointsNeed some expert advice with this girl from church! !!!10 points?
You're the older one yet you are on the shy side, try to be mature about this and present yourself in front of her with more assertion. There is no girl that will do that asking (only those lucky few) so you being on the shy side isn't going to make things better.

I need some advice with this girl?
so school started and last year I liked this girl and I asked her out twice, the first time she said no cause she's mormon and mormons aren't supposed to date till their 16 and she was only 15, so then in the summer when she was 16(I'm 17 by the way) I asked her out again and this time she just said no(but in a nicer way and stuff) I don't have a class with her so I can't talk to her or anything but since school has started she has said hi to me in the hall and she keeps on doing it and I never say hi first but I am glancing at her then she says it and she seems happy so could she just be saying hi to be friendly or could she like me? I wish I had a class with her to talk to her so should I say something in the hall but I want to know more if she likes me or not and what do I say(I suck with girls by the way) I just don't know what to do.I need some advice with this girl?
just get to know her more and maybe ask her to hang out or something.I need some advice with this girl?
just smile at her. ask her how she is doing? wat are her hobbies and what are some spots she likes to go. sometimes ask her wats on her mind and keep eye contact with her.

Any advice about this girl?
About 5 months ago, I told this girl I liked her even though, back then, I had only known her for about 3 weeks, and she said that she just didn't want a relationship like that, that she was too selfish and that she felt she would only end up hurting the guy.
So I left it a few months, and tried to get over her. I still wanted to be her friend though. But then I realised that she's never had a boyfriend before, and I feel that maybe, just maybe she was telling the truth. She's the nicest girl I've ever met, and I haven't ever had as strong feelings for a girl as I have for her. I've never had had the courage to ask a girl to her face for her number, let alone call her, until I met this girl.
Recently, I've been spending more time with her as group, flirting a little bit, not too much, but then she sends me this really long email saying basically she hoped I didn't like her, begging me not to like her like that, saying that she just didn't want a boyfriend. She said that I was one of the nicest, sweetest guys and that there was plenty of far more beautiful girls out there. And I felt the best thing to do was to be completely honest with her, and so I told her how I liked her alot, but that I wasn't out there seeking a relationship with whoever. (I kind of felt that she thought I just simply wanted a girlfriend which isn't at all true.)
She replied and said she was very happy that I had been so honest with her. But didn't mention anything else about what I had said (about me liking her).
And since then, however, we've done a number of things together- we've had dinner twice, had lunch, gone for walks... just us two. (I have also never done anything like this with any other girls before.)
Should I completely give up and move on, or do you think I should keep trying? I do understand that if she really really really liked me, then yea, probably she would have said yes when I asked her... but what if she sort of likes me, but doesn't feel like she likes me enough? How many of you could say you really really really liked your significant other before you to were officially going out?
She's a very considerate girl, so I'm thinking that just maybe she's afraid that if she gets into a relationship with me, she might change her mind about whether she likes me and then end up hurting me?
If you guys think that I have a chance, any ideas of other things we could do together? Stuff that isn't too full on or too boyfriend-girlfriend style? Any ideas of how often I should meet up with her/call her? And most importantly, any ideas of how I can convince her she's not selfish, and that she could never hurt me?Any advice about this girl?
:(Any advice about this girl?
i would say to keep it up...but, when it comes to her telling you that she's not interested or doesnt see you that way, then you should respect her decision. when you love someone that much then at least let them go
Do not intend for tight her down to what you feel. I'm really sorry to say that, but if she's not into you then she will only be miserable.

Careers advice for teenage girl in England!?
About 6 months ago I decided that I wanted to be an Equine Vet. But when I went to the Post 16 open evening at my school, I found out that to be an Equine Vet you need to get at least double A results in Biology, Chemistry, Physics (Seperate sciences) and Maths. But I do core science and my target grade for science is double C but I am working towards double B and my target grade for maths is C and thats what I got in my practice papers last year. I was told that I would not get into a vet course which I was really upset about but my Careers advisor told me about an Equine Science course that I would be able to get into as you only need A* - C in Biology to get into.
What I want to do is take applied science in A level at my current school (along with a few unrelated subjects) and then do the Equine Science course and then try to get into a vdt course once I have done the Equine Science one.
Do you think I could do that or will they not let me do that?
Also, if I couldn't get into a Vet course afterwards, what could I do with just that qualification? I tried asking my careers advisor but she just waffles on about something completely different!
Thanks XxCareers advice for teenage girl in England!?
1.Check alternative National Diploma courses - offered at F.E Colleges
2.Ring the Universities offering vet courses - see if National Diploma qualifications are accepted for entry.
