Ron takes one call after the next in this segment of Classic Car Doctor. His first patient is Allen from Ohio that is blindly swapping parts into his stalling 1996 S10 Blazer. With some very expensive parts replacement he is still having problems so its The Car Doctor to the rescue. Tune in for the fix!

After the first break Russ from North Carolina is up with a 1998 Ford Explorer. He is having some issues with his other Explorer, a used 2000 Ford Explorer that does not perform as well as the 98 when running it on the beach.  Ron helps him narrow it down to a possible 4WD system that is failing to go into 4WD  when switched over. The Car Doctor gently explains the process of how to know and what to do. Ron also asks the caller to consider the tires in both tread and condition. 

Ron's last call for this Classic segment is about a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero that won't start at certain times. Its back to basics as Ron points out that perhaps the car is running out of gas, simple as that. He then talks at length on steps he would take to diagnose and verify the failure.
