What is a stabilizer link? A stabilizer link is one of the parts that make up the stabilizer bar/sway bar. The stabilizer bar consists of the bar, links, and bushings. The bar is shaped like a “u”. The bar is attached to the frame of the vehicle with links and bushes. What happens is this system lets the bar flex and in doing so keeps your vehicle on the ground. When you turn your vehicle it creates a force that may create a situation where the vehicle may go up on one side. This system helps to control that.

Preventive Maintenance, Ryan's Servicenter

Diesel motors work by compressing just the air. The compression builds up the air temperature inside. When this happens the fuel converts to very fine particles and it lights suddenly. Diesel motors might be either two-stroke or four-stroke meaning that the piston travels around 2 or 4 times in one cycle while turning the crankshaft. Just a little FYI.

Why is my Air Conditioning Blowing Warm? Reasons why your Air Conditioning is not cold enough is your air conditioning system uses refrigerant to create cold air. There may not be enough refrigerant in your system. There can be pinholes and leaks that allow the refrigerant to escape. Rubber Hoses can fall apart inside causing the pieces to can get stuck in the Filters and other parts. Which stops proper circulation. This can also cause your Compressor to freeze up.Sometimes a worn belt causes slippage and also adds to the problem. If your air conditioning isn't working properly make an appointment and let our ASE technicians take a look.
