How can I start a legal escort service in Texas?

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

I am looking to start a legal escort service and wanted to know what are the steps I need to take as far as starting it. what licenses I need and what else I need to get before girls and guys?

lol, umm is this a joke? prostitution is illegal in every state except for nevada. there are no "legal" escort services. They would go out of buisness extremely fast. Since you’re probably really asking for tips on becoming a pimp, why don’t you get out there and sell yourself, girls dont need you to take their money for doing nothing.

What’s the estimate for a ford escort engine replacement price?

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

My little ford ‘99 escort got its engine cracked a little over a month ago and I’ve been told it needs to be replaced. Unfortunately I keep getting jipped when it comes to my car. Can anyone give me a rough estimate of a used engine and the cost to install it in the bay area of California?

It might come to around a couple grand, so you may want to consider buying a different car if you aren’t really attached to it. But on the other hand it will be a new engine that will last a long time. But you should get some quotes from auto shops. Some shops are better priced then others, so you may want to ask some relatives or friends where what places they prefer.

How do i turn off the service engine soon on my 1997 ford escort lx?

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

I just had the radiator replaced on my 1997 ford escort lx. less than 12 hours later the service engine soon light came on. How do i turn this light off.

You unhook the battery for 2 mins, but I would get the codes scanned 1st to see what is the issue, most parts stores will do a free scan, You may have a O2 unplugged if they removed the rad.

What happens when premium gas is put in a regular gas car, Ford Escort?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

Without my glasses on, I put premium unleaded in my Ford escort. It only takes regular. What could happen and what should I do?

Money will disappear from your wallet.

Premium gas has higher octane levels. Octane is basically a "power" level, but more is not necessarily better.

Too low octane, and your engine might "knock" (kind of a shudder"). Most run just fine on regular. If an engine requires a higher octane, you use the higher fuel. But if it doesn’t require it, it’s sort of a waste, because your engine can’t take advantage of it.

I have one vehicle that has a custom engine and requires super premium (which I give it). The rest just require regular fuel, and to put in super would just be a waste of money, because it wouldn’t make them drive or perform any better.

You didn’t hurt anything, you just paid for a gas quality you didn’t need.

How do I find out the dimensions of the spline on a Ford Escort Driveshaft?

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

I am developing a race buggy and use the ford escort driveshafts i want to make my own rear hubs (lighter ,better material etc) but i need the exact dimensions of the spline any help would be appreciated

If you already have the axles, as you seem to have indicated, then the best way would be to take a micrometer and mic the splines to get the measurements. Or if you have the hub assemblies, then you could also mic them to get your dimensions. You are going to have to have one or the other if you are making your own hubs to check for fit if you are going to do it right, so having the axles would be the best way to go about it.

How do I Remove the roof headlining on my ford escort wagon?

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

I want to take the luggage rack off my 93 Ford Escort Wagon. Someone said I need to remove the roof headling to get at the bolts. How do I remove the roof headling?

To remove the rack you first have to remove all the inside door trim on every door, including the rear hatch. This will loosen the edges of the headliner near the doors. The A pillar and B pillar inside trim will also have to be removed. The sun visors will have to be removed along with the upper windshield trim. Once the headliner is out of the way you will see the nuts holding the rack in place. Be cautious with the long pieces that run from front to back. They are also attached with a very stiff glue and will snap in two very easily. Best to get one end started then run a stiff wire, like a guitar string under the piece to cut the glue loose. Clean out all the old glue before reinstalling the rack. Do not try to reuse it. Get all new adhesive.
