Well, I did say "generally."
It's a 4-cylinder ... they generally sound either quiet or terrible. Pick one. ;)
I am pretty sure propane won't do the job. MAPP gas might. Acetylene would be better. I would be worried about an uneven bend with it clamped...
The picture above is just how your setup looks now? If so, I think there are a few problems: 1.) No radiator shroud. There should be no way for...
I haven't seen it pointed out that, while having a second engine to power a supercharger is more complicated than driving the supercharger off the...
Oh. Coils on plugs then? Hmm, I don't know why that system would fire 2 at once. I know more about the waste spark systems with a single coil...
You're sure it's one coil per plug? If so, I am not sure why it would fire two at a time. Do you have a pic or part number for the coil pack?
I could be wrong, but as I understand it, the main benefits to a "wasted spark" setup are cost and packaging. It lets you fire 4 cylinders with 2...
I don't want to get cold! Springtime is finally here and I want to enjoy it! :D I didn't explain myself well. What I was getting at is that...
I was thinking that too. If you like the woods, go putt around in them. If you like music, take it to a concert. If you like to paint or take...
To each his own, but I don't think coolant can go "too fast" in a heat exchange system. (Assuming you keep it sub-light, you know. :D)...
Ha! Ok, those are not the most aesthetically pleasing items. But you don't leave the mousetrap sitting in your driveway, though. Right?
Profit trumps cost. In other words, yes, the purpose of the chrome quail on your hood may be to look good ... but that's not its only purpose....
As for the water pump and thermostat, I agree, "cheat" off the OEMs whenever possible! They already paid some guy to figure this out back in...
Well said. Still, circle track racing is one thing, and street driving is another. If you only use the maximum horsepower for 10 seconds out of...
Oh, you have to know these things when you're king, you know? :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2R3FvS4xr4 Sort of. But it's affected greatly...
It's roughly equivalent to the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow. ;) ... Seriously, that's not enough information (as I think you already...
Of course I didn't call; I don't actually care either way! Just find it funny that everyone claiming it's hogwash hasn't called either....
Lots of jokesters, but nobody actually answered his question... If they really do drop a low-volume product because of an expensive tool...
8. Dismantling, Repairing and Storing of Vehicles – Where Prohibited. (Added by Ord. No. 137,210, Eff. 10/12/68.) (a) No person...
Do you know what ordinance they are claiming? I did a couple of code searches and couldn't find anything entirely prohibiting it. If you were...
It's been pointed out at least twice that the suggestion was to add oil, run the engine, and then check the filter. This thread has officially...
Well... ... Read all the posts in order and they make more sense. If there is loose metal, it didn't vaporize ... it will either end up in the...
It's also double walled and quite strong.
I wouldn't really want a standard car battery under my seat. Sulfuric acid burns are no good. Hydrogen explosions are no good. Electrical fires...
Maybe it was an impostor using Leslie's credentials, who got found out and banned?
"I'm sorry, Bruce! I should have paid more attention in Bat Mechanics 101 instead of reading a comic book! I will do better next term!" *pounds...
Well, it's your opinion. I got a little carried away with the analogy silliness. Interesting thing about the situation in the original post:...
Haha. That's one way to look at it. Your statement reminds me of a family member who will notice a problem with her car, or her house's...
