Howdy. I don't usually ask any boards for help, but /o/ is a good community.

My 95 del sol (1.6l SOHC) (D16Z6) has been overheating today. If I stop driving, add coolant until full (barely any) it can stay cool for about 3 hours before overheating. The sucky part about it overheating is that there is white smoke coming off the radiator and I radiator fan seems to only come on once in a while.

I checked the fuse box and the one for the heater motor has some black on it, could replacing the fuse fix this issue?

So I'm in the market for my first car, gonna be some beater piece of trash w/e not the important part for now. Right now I need some advice on tools. My parents said they'd get me a tool set to start off with, I'm between a few sets from craftsman and husky having ~300 pieces each at about $200. I can throw some links if y'all want, but are there any recommendations? I'd cap the price to around $500, and I know i'm not gonna get anything complete but at least as inclusive as I can get. Also a good toolbox/chest for around 1-200, maybe something modular like pic related

craftsman hand tools are good. lifetime warranty. you can break it doing literally anything and they ask no questions.

personally I don't like the big mechanic sets they sell.

you might spend a little more money, but I feel like it might be better to piece together smaller sets.

the mechanic sets have shit you'll never use. like tiny ratchet with tiny sockets, the universal screwdriver thing that no one ever uses, the allen keys dont come with a thing to hold them, you dont get many screw drivers, no pliers, etc

idk i just feel like piecing together smaller sets is better. everything you want with nothing you dont.
>>
>>14044923
youre gonna have to add it up and see whats a better way

like ideally you'd just piece together a 3/8 ratchet set, grab some extensions, a swivel, a screwdriver set, an allen set, a little hexbit set, pliers set, uhh a rubber/plastic hammer, idk i cant think of anything else and then just buy shit as you need it.
>>
>>14044923
I agree with this. Years ago when my dad dipped off and I need some new tools, I dropped some money on a big Craftsman set. It came with a million sockets that I don't really need, yet no pliers or vice grips and stuff like that.

I think you should get yourself a decent socket set, a wrench set (Sears has those GearWrench ratcheting and open ended sets on sale now), and a screwdriver set and then kinda see what you need as you fix stuff.

Wankel thread?

Did anyone here have an RX7 as one of their earliest cars/ their first car even?
Considering an NA FC but I'm curious if it's just too hard
I know the basics of rotary maintenance and how they work, but maybe it's just a thing where I need more experience with cars in general.

Anybody have any experience with this stuff? I'm a professional tech, so I tend to shy away from this kind of stuff. Lucas makes good products though, I've always had good luck with them. I've tried the Lucas power steering stop leak, and it works well. Didnt feel like replacing the steering rack on my C5. It's really just a thick fluid that reconditions old power steering systems. I figure the transmission stop slip is kind of the same thing, if not almost the exact same product given how similar the two fluids are.

Anybody have any experience with it? It would be a last resort before replacing a transmission anyway.

I'd never consider using engine oil stop leak or radiator stop leak. That's just asking to fry your shit.

Good:

Bad:
>Autotragic (all the turbo ones are in Americuntistan)
>Sunroof is fucked, so are the seats and steering wheel, because:
>317,000 fucking miles
>"Ran when parked" 5 months ago because of "clunking", supposedly needs an axle boot
>Battery is all the way dead thanks to the alarm, won't take a jump, brand new one costs $140
>Reg has been out for 6 months, title still in previous owner's name

Should I gamble a battery on this? Figure if I can drive it around the block it's worth $400. Or $300. Either way it's sitting in my landlady's driveway so I'd like to do some'm wit it

Check for body rust. Honestly, it its bad, harvest the engine and sell it for double what your landlord is asking for.

>>14041468
No rust, California car. Usually unless the car is parked within a mile of the beach or had serious unfixed body damage you don't see serious rust on anything newer than mid 70s.

It's mostly just some mumbo jumbo. Have you ever tried driving with a Styrofoam cup full without spilling any? Even in a parking lot its quite a challenge, let alone up/down a mountain pass.

It's great across the board. I have some minor complains about the 3rd row (but only kids go back there so who gives a funk amiright?) being small. The suede lining is okay but I have a feeling it's going to look like shit in 2 years. Lots of gimmicks like the fridge in the center console and it has a bluray player.

The ride is phenomenal. Mercedes air suspension has jack dick on the magnetic suspension. It's creepy how smooth the ride is.

Another plus is that it takes regular petrol.

Nigs cruise around in 2007 cadillac cars at best.

This car is for my wife since we live in a wasp-y area and I wanted her to ha email the best ride for the kids
