Determining how much Auto Insurance Coverage you Need
1: Other Party:
Auto Insurance Bodily Injury (BI) Liability and Property Damage (PD) coverage is Legally required in most states today. (BI & PD) Most people understand that they need BI and PD, but they have no idea how to determine how much coverage they need.
Try this simple question: What if your car was involved in an auto accident tonight where heaven forbid, someone else was injured or killed? Remember, everything you own is in the back seat of the car with you and is at risk in a lawsuit! So, what do you think their family would sue you for? $15,000? $25,000? $100,000 or even maybe a Million dollars! Where would you get the money to pay them?
Perhaps the Equity in your Home would help? How about your Savings and/or Investments? You could even have up to 25% of your wages attached to pay the award in most states! Are you prepared to sacrifice everything you own to pay an award due to this accident? If not, read on for how to choose the auto insurance coverage you need.
2: You and Your Family:
Now let?s turn the above accident around. For some unfortunate reason, you or a loved one is the one who is injured or killed in an auto accident. Where would you get the money if the person who hit you did not have auto insurance or not enough auto insurance? Medical bills can be covered if you have health insurance. But health insurance doesn?t cover loss of life, pain & suffering or permanent disability.

Question:
Everytime i’m driving my car,i here this clicking noise when i turn the
wheel to the right..i’m afraid i might “break” something or possibly have
the car stop running while i’m driving…what is this and also when i leave
from my parking spot,there seems to be a grease spot on the ground…i know
it is not the oil in my car..so what is it?
Answer:
More than likely the clicking is the CV joint (constant velocity) if you have a front wheel drive car. And the spot you see on the ground is the grease leaking out of it. There is a boot which is supposed to keep the grease in the CV joint, but over time it wears out and may split. This will allow the grease to leak out and dirt to get into the CV joint. This will cause premature wear and the clicking noise you hear. Get the car to a mechanic ASAP, if the CV joint snaps, you may lose control over the vehicle.

Question:
I have a 5.7L (350 cid) V8 in a 1982 corvette. I believe it is an L83.
What does it take to replace the rear main seal? I have heard it minght be
possible to do so without removing the transmission. Any advice?
Thanks,
David
Answer:
I believe the rear main seal is a two piece design, so yes, it’s possible to change without pulling the transmission. You will have to remove the oil pan and the rear main cap. You can then remove the old seal and replace it. The seal is a rope style seal and you will have to use a small piece of string or wire to pull the new seal into place.
