The top ten reasons that I see vehicles coming to Ace Automotive for no start problems

1. Electric fuel pump failure /fuel filter restriction

One of the most common no-start problems I have seen in recent times is the failure of in-tank electric fuel pumps, primarily due to lack of proper scheduled maintain on the vehicle owners part of not having the fuel filter changed at the proper intervals, sure some fuel filters can cost approx. $100.00 and up to replace several times a year but in some vehicles such as late 90s Jeep Gran Cherokees replacing the fuel pump costs nearly $800.00! How many times do you want to pay that?

Also another cause for premature fuel pump failure is allowing the fuel level to get to below ¼ tank and below for extended periods or running completely out of fuel running out of fuel allows the electric fuel pump to run "dry" which nearly immediately ruins the pump.

Vortec Design GM engines 4.3L, 5.7L with the CPI fuel injection system the CPI unit fails in many different ways; the plastic tubes leak, the "poppets get plugged, the fuel pressure regulator leaks.

2. Timing Belt Failure / Timing belt tensioner failure

Timing belts are designed to last approx. 40,000-60,000 miles under normal use not changing the timing belt before it "breaks" can result in expensive engine damage in some vehicles, such as Honda, Acura, Nissan, and Mitsubishi. Always have the timing belt changed a little before the recommended change interval and check the tensioner replace if questionable. Timing belt tensioner failure is common.

3. Distributor Failure / Including Ignition control modules

Mid 80s Gm 4 cyl. V-6s

Most all GMs with Electronic distributor 4, cylinder, V-6, V-8 1988-1998)

80s / 90s Ford TFI ignition (grey module bolted to outside of distributor)

Ford Pick-up assemblies inside the distributor

I have seen many distributor failures on Hondas especially due to bearing failure.

4. ECM/ PCM Failure (computer)
5. Primarily on mid 80s GM products with 2.8L engines and "W" in the 8th position of the VIN #
6. Alternators

Most problem alternator I have seen is the CS130 /CS130D on some mid 80s GMs for the CS130 and on later GMs the CS130D on like 92 and later makes like Gran Am, Gran Prix, etc.

7. Crank / Cam Sensors

Late model 92-93 Chrysler vehicles with 3.3L engine Caravan, Voyager,

Mid 80s GMs 2.0L crank sensors 2.5 L crank sensors

Mid 80s- early 90s GM V-6s crank sensors

90s Jeeps 4.0L engines cam/ crank sensors

Mitsubishi Galant 4 cyl engines crank sensors (failure due to balance belt failure and broken belt cuts sensor wires and damages sensor)

8. Batteries/ Cables /Clamps

Many neglected corroded Batteries find their way to our facility; Batteries do not last forever! Poor Maintenance practices cause many many battery failures which often leads to other problems.

9. Electrical Problems

Ford ignition switches, in escorts in the early 90s the electrical portion of the ignition switch will separate inside, some ford ignition switches have been known to cause fires!

10. Miscellaneous

Vehicles out of fuel due to inaccurate fuel gauges

Engines locked up due to lack of oil

Plugged Exhaust systems (catalytic converters

Teeth missing or worn off the flywheel cannot turn the engine over

Bad fuel injectors

But I have NEVER seen or heard of a car not starting or running bad due to the brand of gasoline being used!

Get Information For Buying A Cheap Used Car

If you are thinking of owning a car, consider a cheap used car. It allows you to have more savings. A used car does not mean that it is inferior. When a brand new car leaves the dealership, its market value depreciates by $2000. Some cars drop in value even more.

 

After three years, it is only worth 60-70% of its original price. In a case to case basis, you can buy a used car loaded with accessories and enhancers, which you might not afford had you bought a new car. When it comes to luxury cars and subcompacts, their depreciation is even quicker.

 

For example, if you have an eye for a Mitsubishi Galant ES, you can have it $7,000 cheaper two years later at 24,000 miles. There are other good deals on cheap used cars in excellent conditions, particularly cars with low mileage. Rather than a fixed price like brand new cars, the prices of used vehicles are quite negotiable.

 

This situation is especially evident in this time of economic crises. Fewer sales on cars, whether brand new or slightly used, have led to a remarkable markdown  on their prices. Large cars, SUV and mid sized cars have reduced their prices to encourage consumers to buy.

 

In fact, Lexus and Mercedes Benz are the pioneers in the proliferation of certified pre-owned programs. Having a certification of pre-owned cars reduced the risks commonly associated with used automobile. Before the car is displayed for sale and given a certification, it undergoes a series of inspection.

 

Necessary repairs and replacement of parts are made, making the cheap used car capable of delivering high performance. Because more people rely on the web to get information about used cars, the choices for buyers have become wide and increased.

 

Admittedly, the pre-loved cars do not carry the same warranties of the brand new ones. However, in some cases, the original factory warranty can be transferred to a second owner at no charge. Depending on the car dealers, you can find a certified pre-owned car with the original warranty.

 

There are even authorized dealers of some car manufacturers that offer limited warranties to selected second hand vehicles. Although there are slight differences in the prices, you can be assured that your chances of experiencing car troubles are less.

 

To ensure that you have the best choice for a cheap used car, it is wise to assess your own needs. Set your standards. Do you want a large car like a van and mini van? Or, do you want a SUV and compact car? How about a pickup or truck? Consider your budget. Is your choice of a car within your financial resources?

 

Even when the dealer assures you that the car has excellent conditions, it is still a wise decision to inspect the car properly. Run a check on carfax to know about the cheap used car’s history. It provides information such as the number of times the ownership has been transferred, and the number of times it has been wrecked.

How should we get to JFK?

Take the A train to the E
Get a livery cab from our neighborhood
Private Supershuttle van
Drive in my mom's mitsubishi galant 2000
If we are going to the Dominican Republic, what time should we leave for an 8 am flight?

I would take a cab - less hassle than doing the train, cheaper than a private van, and less stress than driving yourself. Don't know where you're coming from, so you'll have to figure how long the cab ride might take, and subtract that from about 6:30 (latest advisable arrival time at the airport).
