When I tell you that all 8 of my injectors are seized inside of my engine I’m not lying. I’ve gotten 3 out but they’ve taken about 30-45 mins each of careful prying and penetration fluid. I stopped at 3 because the next one I tried working on really did not want to budge and I thought I’d come...

My subwoofer went out a couple of days ago while driving. It is an aftermarket sub and is 2 months old and not blown. I know it's not blown cuz it comes on intermittently when I switch to cd. But now that has stopped completely also. So, now I have no sub. Any thoughts?
