Sep 22, 2026 · 37m
Summary
Click and Clack diagnose a 1992 Toyota pickup’s high-RPM hesitation, suspecting a weak fuel pump or clogged filter, and advise a 1985 Volvo owner to check for a slipping belt or seized A/C compressor. They also discuss a 1974 Alfa Romeo Spider with a suspected broken starter motor and a 1991 Toyota Previa where the owner accidentally mixed oil into the coolant. The episode features a "Where Are They Now" segment with a caller who successfully removed black widow spiders from her car using a paint booth, along with a new logic puzzle involving a detective and a white coupe.
