Car not starting? Battery not charging? Start here. If you car won't start or the lights dim and the car dies, there is a good chance one of these two components went bad. The alternator in your vehicle keeps the battery at full charge when your engine is running. Because all of your electronic systems run off of this small piece, it's important that it is operational. If your lights are dim while driving or your battery dies within minutes of starting your car, it's time for a new alternator.

Schwaben has also thoughtfully included the correct tools to properly replace your worn teflon seals as well.

Tired of garage floor stains and adding oil at every fill up? Chronic engine oil leaks may be a sign that your car has a more serious problem with its crankcase ventilation system. Positive Crankcase Ventilation systems send cylinder blow-by gases back to the intake for burning. When they don't, crankcase pressure builds, pushing engine oil past seals and gaskets. Bottom line? ECS has PCV Service Kits that cure the cause and fix the damage. Available in three stages, pick the one that matches your car's symptoms, and start keeping your oil inside the engine, where it belongs.
