1988 Ford Aerostar gets 11v from coil but no spark from plugs. Getting gas to engine. Changed distribuitor, rotor, tried a different plug. It happened suddenly one day it was running good then the check engine light came on as it cut off. I tried it a few times with no luck. Sat for 10 minutes tried it again - it ran all the way home. The next morning I tried it again and it just cranks won't turn over since. Rotor spins; serpentine belt turns; there are no points on this model year. Did not change the condensor or wires however using a digital volt meter I could tell there was current present. 11.4v at the battery. It ran good no smoke or backfiring. (I thought about the timing) Some other threads suggested it might be the relay but I can't see how that can be.. Can any one Help?Ford aerostar no fire to plugs.?
Have you tried the ignition switch? This could do what you are speaking of. There are alot of wires that engage alot of items on your van thru this switch. Good luckFord aerostar no fire to plugs.?
To me it sound like a loose connector some were in the ignition system. I would check all of your connectors, fuses and relays for oil dirt oil or corrosion. I had this same problem with my old Toyota and it turned out to be just a corroded fuses that goes to the coil. the car would do every thing you mentioned. by the way Toyota sucks the worst car ever Japanese cars :(. American cars :). any one who disagrees is ant American and obviously knows nothing about cars. Support American cars they are built by hard working people who are dedicated to building quality cars.Ford aerostar no fire to plugs.?
Did a battery light come on? Battery should be around 12v. Could be your ign module or camshaft sensor.

How much does it cost to change your brake pads and rotors?
I just went for my NY inspection. They wanted to charge me $ 600.00 to change my brake and rotors. I drive a 2003 ford explorer. Does that seem about right?How much does it cost to change your brake pads and rotors?
Who's %26quot;they%26quot;? According to fordparts.com, front brake pads for your 2003 Explorer cost $97.49US (part number 4L2Z-2001-BA), and front brake rotors cost $89.67US each (part number 4L2Z-1125-AA). So, if we do the math here, that's $276.83US in parts alone. Since you mention NY, I'm assuming that labour rates in that area go for around $100.00US per hour. Typically, most dealers pay their techs 1.5 hours to replace front brake pads and brake rotors. That means at $150.00US plus $276.83US works out to about $426.83US plus taxes. That doesn't sound too far off from the $600 you were quoted if you add the taxes in. Hope this helps.How much does it cost to change your brake pads and rotors?
Wow umm rotors(sport ones) are about$250 for a 2003 Ford Explorer. And pads are about $85. that is an insane amount to charge for that simple of a job. i would buy the parts and find a friend that is somwhat mechicaly talanted. its so easy. im 16 and i can do it.How much does it cost to change your brake pads and rotors?
I think that's right...because i believe you have 4 rotors! rear and front. I just paid $320 to change my rotors and that was all just on parts and i only have 2 rotors. So i believe that's around the price. Look up the price of your rotors %26amp; Brake pads like on autozone.com and add the price for the repair which is like $50 something dollers per hr. which should only be an hr maybe 1 1/2 hours tops!How much does it cost to change your brake pads and rotors?
you can do it your self three or four times for that price ... front pads 25 bucks rear about the same rotors vary.. call any auto parts store and get a price for parts and you wil see.. most of the time a brake job just for pads start about 100 bucks which is high knowing what i know i do it all my self maybe a couple hundred but it sounds high .. call a few places ..... ask how much to replace it alll pads and rotors front and back....which hardy ever needed now if you dont need rotors which most of the time you dont unless you have wore them out or they been grinding.. you can look the price up autozone.comHow much does it cost to change your brake pads and rotors?
Rip off! If you can find someone to do the brakes and rotors for you do it. auto zone has the best price for those type of parts. Only paid $130.00 for brakes and rotors there and $80.00 for labor for the person to do it.mouse cursor is lagging web hosting servers

How to remove the rotors from a honda 2000 civic?
i try changing the rotors on my Honda..and took the brake frame out and everything...but i noticed that the rotors are screwed in...never seen this before..because usually you can just pull em out..also the +shape screws are rusted and hard to get out...can any0ne help? thanksHow to remove the rotors from a honda 2000 civic?
Those sonofas are horribly annoying...
When I was trying to get that kind of rotor off I managed to get on it with a Ryobi cordless drill with the screwdriver tip on it, for the screws..
If it's how I think it is, you might be in a world of hurt...

If they are regular rotors like that they should just slide off, maybe a small bit of persuasion...
but if they are the kind where the studs don't go through the holes, then you'd need to remove the axel nut, probably use a slide hammer... loads of crap which is why I gave up on the front rotors for
my dad's accord...

2004 chevy malibu? how much would it cost to change left front brake rotor/drum; loud screeching noise...?
2004 chevy malibu, loud screeching sound, which i think would be the brake rotors/drums, i bought it last april, with 5year warranty, is something like this covered? i need to check but....help!2004 chevy malibu? how much would it cost to change left front brake rotor/drum; loud screeching noise...?
If its not worn to bad you could have the rotor turned about $10.00/$20.00 I would suggest that you change the break pads as well

I want to upgrade my hidraulic brakes from 6" to 8"?
What do I need to modify? I just want to change the rotors, do I need to change the calipers also? how can I do this?
thanksI want to upgrade my hidraulic brakes from 6%26quot; to 8%26quot;?
If its the front check your fork to see if its post mount like on most new Rock Shox or IS- international standard. Once that is established, buy the Front 203 mm adaptor. Also make sure your fork can handle the larger rotor. Make sure you have the right rotor like Center Lock or standard six bolt for your hub and wheel
Its pretty much the same for the rears too. Just make sure you get the right adapter for the rear. I messed up once by not paying attention to which adaptor and wasted like $30.
One last thing. Different rotors are different thicknesses. I think Magura brakes are thinner then most- I think. I'm not sure how much of a difference it all really makes but I try to buy a rotor from that brake company.
I hope this helped a little.

My rear brake pads doesn't have any wear, why?
From the brake upgrade that I did from last year I notice that my rear brake pads haven't worn at all. My fronts were worn down to the point that I have to change the rotors, but something must be wrong here. How could the fronts wear down so much with the rears not even being touched?
I do notice, however, that the pads only seem to be making contact with certain parts of the rotors.My rear brake pads doesn%26039;t have any wear, why?
Any time you do brakes on a car, it is easier and safer to change the calipers as well as the brake pads. More than likely the rear caliper piston is not extending as far as needed.My rear brake pads doesn%26039;t have any wear, why?
When %26quot;you%26quot; replaced your brake pads last year, you probably bled the system incorrectly or somehow caused the %26quot;transfer valve/isolation valve%26quot; to shift, eliminating the rear brakes entirely. The light bulb may be burnt out, but the brake light on the dash should be lit continuously if that happened.
If you have full ABS brakes, there could be sensor or command function problems isolating your rear brakes.My rear brake pads doesn%26039;t have any wear, why?
If they are drum brakes they need to be adjusted, if they are rotors the piston may be frozen and you will need to replace it. I have seen cases wgere the piston was not brought straight back and now it won't move, hard tyo tell not being able to see what is going on.My rear brake pads doesn%26039;t have any wear, why?
Is it too much to ask to include year/make/model of vehicle?

How thick should your rotors be?
ok so i have a 93 acura legend and i just changed my brakes but would like to know if i have to change my rotors. i usually change the rotors with the brakes at the same time but this time i did not. how thick should the rotors be? also is there a product i can spray on them to make them last longer or be more efficient. any info on rotors would be greatHow thick should your rotors be?
your minimum thickness should be stamped on the rotor itself, and spraying anything on the rotor is a bad idea. any brake quite i have ever seen or used goes on the back of the pad between the backing plate and the caliper/ piston itself. those rotors should last you longer than the life if a set of pads. btw you can pick up brake quite or something similar at your local p[art storeHow thick should your rotors be?
10w 30w oil will make them last longer and I'll bet they don't squeak either.How thick should your rotors be?
NEVER put oil on you rotors or pads!!!hair ideas music player
