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!

Make Sure You Buy A Sauna Belt For The Right Reason

Making the rounds among infomercials and websites these days is the sauna belt, which claims to be an effective weight loss and weight training tool. The sauna belt, which resembles a thick belt that can be fastened around the waist or legs, has been in the past marketed as a way to use heat therapy to aid weight loss through sweating and in order to increase muscle mass through helping muscles to contract. Despite the lofty claims, sauna belts don't actually do what they've been originally marketed to do. Before you purchase a sauna belt, be sure to buy it for the right reasons rather than what they claim to do.

The Claims

The sauna belt, as marketed in the United States, Canada, and other countries, claims to use heat to melt away fat in sessions of about 50 minutes long. The website for the belt makes claims to be great for targeting specific areas of the body in order to allow people to reduce fat and cellulite to accommodate those with a particular area they wish to tone. Presumably, the marketing strategy chosen works off the perception that people consider heat to be the source of getting rid of body fat through a misinterpretation of the phrase "burning the fat."

The Reality

The truth is, a sauna belt isn't the key to weight loss or muscle gain, and though the claims of results for the sauna belt sound great, the truth is that lower weight and higher muscle tone can only be achieved through eating right and exercising. The only thing truly capable of burning fat in your body is exercise, since burning fat is the process your body goes through to convert fat to energy when you put your body under a strain, such as running or lifting weights. The sauna belt itself is more of a strap-on heating pad, and the only accurate effects that it can lay claim to is the use of heat to ease muscle pain and tension.

The Consequences

The sauna belt has been subject to claims against its infomercial advertising in the United Kingdom, which disputed the claims of the belt to be able to burn fat and increase muscle tone. As a result of the investigation by the United Kingdom's Advertising Standards Authority, it was determined that the claims of the sauna belt to be able to promote weight loss were false and the company producing the infomercials in the United Kingdom were ordered to cease their false claims. Based on this, as a consumer your best bet for losing weight is to eat right and exercise, and if you want something to provide heat for your body, consider a sauna belt, or save money and purchase a simple drug store heating pad instead.

What is the belt route for a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a V8?

Putting back together someone else's project.. I need a belt route for a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a V8. My manual does not show the route for my engine, and there is no belt routing label any where under the hood. If you are looking at the front of the engine, I have 6 pulleys, starting with the upper left corner going clockwise, Alternator, idler, AC (upper right corner), Power steering (lower right corner), Water pump in the middle center, crank in the bottom center, and the tensioner on the left hand side below the alternator. I have the belt on the only way I can see it working correctly, but there is still quite a bit of slack. Thanks in advance

Go to the Autzone website, register and look under "repair info."

They will have a diagram.
