Where is the back up light switch on a '78 chevy p/u 3 on the tree?

I do this all the time, no need to pull heads.
to remove press in rocker studs just use a spacer or washers on the stud then tighten a nut on to draw stud out. after removing stud tap hole and install threaded stud.
I usually put duck tape around stud boss to catch metal from tapping then clean up.

I have a 2000 Dodge Stratus and it makes a griding noise what is it?

as long as you make sure none of the metal chips fall down the push rod hole ..tap the hole and screw in the stud

Mustang o2 sensor ?


a gob of grease will keep the chips stuck to the tap

1994 Altima Timing Chain Tighten? or Replace?

Just spend a few buck for a bottom tap set first, so the threads don't wind up too tapered.
