Under The Hood

As the weather turns colder and wetter, thoughts should start to turn to how the winterizing in our automobiles is holding up. It can save a lot of heartache later if you take care of the little things now.

Today’s FamSite is one that is dedicated to the backyard mechanic. Called Under the Hood, here you can learn just about anything about a car, and how to do just about anything to it. There is a basics area, as well as an advanced one. There is an interactive section, and a space set aside for just troubleshooting different problems. Best of all, there are links galore with 800 phone numbers.

Of course, if you think you have a serious problem with your car, it is best to seek professional advice. But if you like to tinker, and save a few bucks in the process, then this is a site for you. Be sure to bookmark it, and return often.
