Those also neatly fit some 911 flat 6 motors. It’s a popular swap with people who have the means. It’s still a bit much for a van, but I’m sure it’ll go like hell in a straight line.

Call it a public service then.  Either way, both of those drivers were dangerous clowns.

No and I’m not sure how you got there from what I wrote.  I’ll happily ignore the drunk at the bar or tell him or her to fuck off.  But if the drunk decides to continue making trouble and someone decides to open the exit door of said bar with the drunk’s face I’ll buy that person a beer and say thank you.

It’s the “ I NEED AWD FOR WHEN IT SNOWS!” No moron, you need snow tires for when it snows.

Watch the longer version from the dash cam, the Accord tries to cut off the guy recording by passing on the right and attempting to squeeze into the space in front of him. The guy recording then backs off and the Accord immediately gets up the Raptor’s tail. Looks like the Accord was just driving like a complete…

Sure, but his “girlfriend” either doesn’t know how to drive in the snow or neither of them know how snow tires work, so the AWD should keep them pointed in the right direction.

That would be at least 2 tanks. 1 of oxygen and the other would be acetylene. The acetylene has to be dissolved in acetone and a non-porous material to be pressurized or else it will explode at pressures greater than 30 psi.

Well, yeah, not much got noted on this in the story above, but apparently there’s a bunch of morons that are participating in this ‘protest’ that are waving confederate and nazi flags.  That doesn’t exactly demonstrate that you’re just there to support a person’s right to vaccinate or not.

When new they were great, but once you put over 190k on them, the mass air flow sensor started to get finicky.  And unlike newer MAF’s, the one in that was an aluminum sheet and the sensor detected the angle it was pitched at.  I had a few unhealthy arguments with the one in my Golf and for the life of me I can’t…

Probably thinking of brake shoes.  Oh how much I hated working on drum brakes.  Who came up with that as a solution?  There’s just so much going on with a drum brake setup versus disc brakes.

Toyotas did the same thing if I remember correctly. And if they were exposed to salt, you could practically watch them disappear.

Is it injected?  If so, there’s the savior.  Never had an issue with my 86 Golf with the Bosch injection.  Carbs on the other hand (as noted in many of these) were just evil.

Had an 86 Blazer, two quick taps to the floor, turn the key and then juice it at about 1.5 seconds and with the aftermarket exhaust, car alarms within 25 feet would go off.

Geez... where to start. Since it’s currently winter, I’ll go with cold starts. Back in the day when 100,000 miles was almost unheard of for a car, everything got worn out well before then. So on a day like today (it’s 0F where I am today) that meant that your car would prefer you just didn’t use it. If you wanted to,…

Yeah, but after many miles, they too have issues.  The speedometer cable in my 2002 TDI Golf stretched something fierce.  I just figured that the newfangled GPS was not reading correctly and went with what the dash mounted speedometer was reading.  When I put the GPS in another car one day, they matched.  So when I…

Looks like bottles of different flavors of Heinz 57 or steak sauce to me...

Just remind her that she has the EPA to thank for the electric VW push. They didn’t decide on their own to push EV production hard, it was a stipulation of their EPA Consent Order.

That’s what happens when someone with some inside information leaks what they’ve heard and everyone else (us) wants to know what the hell is going on.  The UK press most definitely pays known sources of good inside information to get the scoop, so if you’re one of those inside people (like a secretary or low level…

Silly for you and I sure as hell don’t need it. But I’ve met countless people who either were never taught how to do this correctly or are just to damn paranoid and just begin freaking out. I was in one car and had to talk the driver down from full blown freakout just to get them out of the driver’s seat so I could…

I just saw a video of a traffic stop of two of these clowns. The cop was honestly quite patient. White cop, two black ‘sovereign citizens’.
