Welcome to the Auto Help Blog. Ask Away Because Every Question Needs an Answer!


FASTDAD’s auto help blog will be very different from most. What most people want is a down to earth honest opinion of what is wrong, how to deal with their situation, or how to repair the problem. Some cars are worth fixing, others are not. Some people need to fix it because to replace it is not an option, others want to do repair or fix it just for the experience. Yet others just want to save a few bucks. The spectrum of people and circumstances is wide and varied; the need for honesty and good advice is not. It’s the honesty part that will make this so different. Honesty is very good for most situations, but can be brutal in others. So no matter what advice is given, it is given with the best consideration of the person doing the asking with what is known. FASTDAD is not a magician so don’t expect magic but it will be close.
FASTDAD’s qalifications for this blog;
30 plus years experience in the repair business.
FASTDAD built/rebuilt cars for his three daughters and son.
ASE Master Tech with Advanced Drivability.
So ask away. Every question needs an answer simply because the reason your asking is because you don’t know.
Now the rules of this blog;
No foul language
Please be patient, FASTDAD will answer as soon as he can, he does work all day repairing cars and trucks.
Be as specific as you can about your problem. Things like when it happens hot/cold or mornings only driving over bumps, driving after 20 min at  freeways speeds. The circumstances of when the problem arises is critical for a good answer!
FASTDAD may need more info from you about your vehicles problem to give you a better answer, so answer back as soon as you can.
If you can feel the advice was worth a donation FASTDAD really appreciates it very much (see the donation button at www.FASTDAD.net).  If you can’t that’s ok there is satisfaction in knowing it helped you out. After all we are all in this together.
It’s one PROUD AMERICAN blue collar tax payer helping out another.
