But with 30:1 or 40:1 premix ratios, it won’t have a huge impact. 14:1 afr becomes14.5:1 on 30:1 premix. This would only damage a vehicle running on the ragged edge of lean to begin with. This is about the same as running straight gas vs 15% ethanol found in many pumps.

I think a person’s idea of what a sportbike should be is all about age and time they entered the scene. For me, any sport bike older than 99-00 looks odd, clunky, old, ugly. Many bikes newer than 05-06 look funny and like they were trying to hard. Alien and insect like. The only big 4 Japanese sport bike made in…

When I was of that age in, they had done away with driver ed in schools, but not yet required it for anything. So, permit at 15, license at 16 without taking it. Shortly after, they made it a requirement for license at 16 or permit until you were 18.

Quenched in beer.

No. You missed the point. You don’t need to know torque and speed, and power because that is power. Also, you are the one that needs to go review a electric motor Dyno. It makes more or less constant power through the operating speed. There are all kinds of electric motors, but cars do not use, for example single…

Yes, because torque or force requires no work or motion. Like you pushing on the side of your house. Which is why torque means nothing and electric motors are rated by horse power. They accelerate hard because the make steady horsepower from 1 to 20000 rpm. Thus peak torque will be at the bottom and lowest torque at…

I agree that pot makes people slow down. Driving in Dever is painful. Half the people on the road are stoned and driving 10 under the speed limit in the fast lane. And it is that reason, I say, lock them up! No, seriously though, I’m ok with dui for stoned idiots on the road.

Every time a car or motorcycle/trike tows a trailer God kills a kitten. Think about the kittens.

No, in 84 it came with a 205 hp l83. 85 had the l98 but it was 230hp in 85 and was not 250 until 1990.

The pathetic crossfire 205 HP 5.7 was quite a game changer in 84.

With good enough logs you can figure out or fix anything. Give me a log long enough and the verbosity required and I can move the world. -Archimedes

Simple. He has remote battery and did something janky with running positive to old terminal, vs straight to starter. you can see the exposed positive terminal in the engine bay. It was equivalent to touching positive post with bar and fuel rail which will be grounded.

People spend too much on cars, I could easily walk into a dealership and get a loan on 120k car. That’s absurd. The most I have ever spent on a car is 25k and I hate my self for doing it. Not worth it. I’m happy to drive sub 20k used cars. Also, I generally keep cars for 6-10 years. Here is to not having a negative…

Engine knock would come from the engine compartment, not tailpipe, as knock happens when valves are closed. Sounds like shaking a few coins in a soda can.

It has an abarth badge on the driver side front fender near the door. Missing on passenger side? Also, grill is right, but the one in the lane has bumper relocated lower, I’m guessing the funny front blinker covers original bumper mount hole in body?

If it was just a carbon fiber bottle, it would be lighter, but likely contaminate the drink with nasty chemicals. Congrats, have some cancer.

Likely a mainly American car show with their own autox, limited to American cars or imports with American engine.

My definition? It’s a thing. It is or it isn’t. High carbon steel that has been heat treated to increase it’s harness through formation of martensite. Steel wheels on automobiles are not hardened. They don’t need to be, and it would make them more likely to shatter vs bend. It’s not an relative argument such as “is…

Has been crazy for a long time. I was in the market for a used taco and ended up with a frontier, then again and got a Titan. No regrets.

steel wheels aren’t hardened (that would make them brittle) and that is not even close to a desert eagle.. Not 20" from his face either. So, i’ll edit out the alternative facts and help your post out.
