beautiful red S10 with 96k miles at my shop for a crank no start condition, body looks great for 35 or so years old

I took my Chevy 350 to the block. It was seized from water entering through the intake. Please note, I have zero experience as a mechanic, so everything I learn to do I learn through YouTube.I was able to un-seize the motor, I honed the cylinders, replaced all the vaulves, seals, and push rods, cleaned the heads and block, and reassembled with all new fresh gaskets.

Then, I put on a brand spankin new AVS 2 Carburetor, and then I started it. It started pretty good and it sounded pretty good and then after maybe like 10-15 seconds after sounding real good, it turns off and fire shoots out the carburetor (see attached video for reference). What is wrong with it and what should I do next to help fix this?

My grandma was driving my car and hit a pole to avoid hitting a pedestrian. I have a Chevy Malibu 2012. Can it be fixed? What do I do?

My colorado has been having an overheating issue but not what you would expect. My temp gauge only exceeds half if I am sitting at a light for a long time. I have noticed after turning the key off and i put the key in accessory mode the temp gauge needle steadily climes to 3/4. It has no heat. It is not a thermostat as I’ve gotten to the thermostat to replaced and noticed it had been changed, still pulled it and tested it in the boiling hot water and worked as designed. I have a heater core to replace in it I haven’t done yet as that was my next step in terms of there was no heat coming out when you turn it on. I have a feeling this is not the sole issue though. I had to tear into my A/C cluster because it would not turn all the way cold and I found zip ties and the a/c controls were a little wonky which makes me think maybe the heater core had been messed with before. I just bought this truck at 221,000 miles and didn’t notice the issue when i test drove it as it was not hot outside like it is now. The truck is not burning oil, i change it regularly and it’s the same amount I’ve put in (6 qt). Coolant obviously has been changed due to the thermostat pull and radiator bled too. Could this be a water pump issue or is it something simple that I am over looking. For your reference there is a video of me driving it today at highway speed and the temperature is fine and then a picture attached of the temp gauge after turning the truck off and putting the key in accessory. In the video you will notice a check engine light, it is unrelated it’s a P0446 (evap) that i am going to fix next. The a/c is on 2 in the video also. The picture I am uploading is not to the 3/4 mark but it has gotten up there a few times when i put it in accessory. This issue only occurs like i said when im sitting at a light for too long, i put my a/c too high (in terms of air speed), and when i put it in accessory after parking.

These are probably my favorite sounding mufflers by far

After I parked my car, I walked past this beautiful late 90s Chevy Silverado and I just knew I had to take a picture.

These are AI-generated concept images, not engineering drawings. The idea is a self-propelled catamaran with its own marine battery, while the docked EV serves as the cabin, control interface and auxiliary power source. I refined the design through multiple iterations to preserve door clearance, passenger space and rain protection. Would this concept be technically viable?

I've got a 2003 Avalanche and trying to figure out which of the four dots on the board are positive and negative to install new LEDs.

I've got pictures of an empty pad and one with a light still attached.

I've tried every resistance test

I have a question about this broken oil pan. I was attempting to replace the oil pan gasket on my uncles work van which is a 4.3l with knowing that there were two 13mm nuts hidden on top where the pan meets the transmission. The access holes are hidden by two rubber grommets.

Long story short, I approach this gasket repair as I would my dad’s work van and my own which have the bigger 6.0ls’ and all the bolts are outside of the pan so easy money. But when I attempted this repair , my not so bright self thought the pan was seized to engine and, well, I pried all day and ended effing breaking this corner that’s up next to the oil filter. I looked inside the pan and the inside is intact.

So my question is can this pan be JB welded as a temporary fix to keep the van running for Monday or is it trash? I owe my uncle an oil pan btw which I’ve already ordered bc my local auto parts stores don’t carry an oil pan for a 4.3l. They do for the 4.8 and up on the Express Vans
