There is a humongous and perpetually growing market for used car parts that is supported by millions of car owners. New replacement parts are often expensive and unnecessary. A lot of people opt to save money and buy used parts from a number of convenient sources. Below, we’ll provide you with an overview of 5 places from which you can buy used auto parts at a discount. Swap Meets Swap meets are a great place to find parts because vendors are usually open to negotiating prices. You’ll find some vendors specialize in parts for certain makes or models. Others may only carry a certain type of part. Many of these vendors use swap meets as a way to make a little extra money. Bring cash and they’ll be willing to deal. Junkyards Huge heaps of rotting cars are mostly a thing of the past. Today’s junkyards offer trackable inventories, better organization and increased convenience. Plus, if one salvage yard doesn’t have the part you’re looking for, they can often check the inventories of other junkyards for you. Online Parts Dealers If you’re unable to find the parts you need at local swap meets and junkyards, check online with the hundreds of used parts dealers. Many of them are connected through a network of other dealers. You can submit your parts request through an online form. The request will move through the network and be addressed by the dealer – or dealers – who can offer you the part. If several dealers have the part you need in their inventories, you can select from the lowest prices. Private Parties Many people are more comfortable dealing with individuals. In the past, buying used car parts from private parties meant poring through your local newspaper’s classified ads. But, times have changed. eBay and online forums attract car enthusiasts from around the world. These places have become important marketplaces for replacement parts. Using Caution And Getting A Good Deal Whenever you purchase used car parts, you need to take a few precautions. Some parts may have defects which are practically invisible to the eye. Or, they can be damaged when removed from another vehicle. What’s more, most vendors will not offer refunds if the part doesn’t fit your car properly. Take the part you’re replacing to swap meets and junkyards so that you can compare it with a replacement. If you’re buying it online, be specific about your needs and ask about a return policy. Finally, avoid buying certain parts used. Air bags, fuel lines and piston rings can often be too worn or damaged to be usable (and remember, no refunds). Buying used auto parts is a great way to save time and money. But, approach it cautiously to get the best deal if you really want to feel satisfied in your decision.

The following article has been provided free of charge by Jonathan Phillips of Everdrive.com, which provides used auto parts, Ford parts, and Honda parts. Learning The Basics Of An Ignition System The purpose of your car’s ignition system is to time a spark that ignites gas at the precise moment needed to power your engine. Several different parts work together to make this happen. Your car’s engine is basically a huge pump. Air and gas are pumped in, producing energy that turns the tires and moves the vehicle. That’s an oversimplification, but sufficient for learning how the components of the system work. Below, I’ll briefly describe the parts involved and take you through the process of igniting the gas and powering your engine. Parts And Their Jobs Your ignition system is comprised of spark plugs, a distributor (and cap), rotor, and coil. The coil is what transforms an electrical current from your car battery into a spark. When the coil successfully creates a spark (and it needs to be potent enough to actually ignite the fuel), the spark is transferred to your car’s distributor. The reason it’s called a distributor is because it spins and allocates the sparks from the coil to multiple spark plugs. It does that through the rotor. The rotor spins with the distributor and contacts the cylinders of the engine. When it does this, it transfers the sparks to the spark plug wires. At this point, the spark has nearly traveled to where it needs to be. Each of the spark plug wires is attached to the distributor cap through its own contact point. Those wires send the spark directly to the spark plugs which are mounted in your car’s cylinder head. When the gases from the fuel flow into the cylinder, the spark ignites them, causing combustion. The process I’ve just described happens over and over, tens of thousands of times while your car is in operation. A Seamless System Your ignition system is most effective when the sparks are precisely timed. In the past, this was done by employing a points-and-condenser module to tell the distributor when to allocate the sparks to the spark plugs. Today, most cars are equipped with computers (called ignition modules) that control the timing. They do so by notifying your car’s engine control unit about the placement of the pistons. If an ignition module fails, it’s usually necessary to replace it. Over the past few years, manufacturers have begun experimenting with “distributorless” ignition systems. Rather than a single coil creating the sparks needed to ignite the fuel, each spark plug has its own coil. That effectively eliminates the need for the distributor. It’s still considered a young technology, but holds significant promise.
