    2015 Ford Fusion - electric parking brake question

    A curious question, if you do the parking brake service mode, can you disconnect the battery. The car will sit for a while and will need to be able to move it. Has anyone done this before? Can just normally releasing the P brake do the same? Electric P brakes is just nuts.

    I always wondered how these super sonic jets do when practicing the various stalls, approach to landing, accelerated, slow flight, banking etc. At least a Cessna 150 won't go into a flat spin if a spin happens. :ROFLMAO:

    Reclaimed Oil for push mower.

    As a youngster (teen) I used some crankcase drainings in our chain saw, it corroded the oil tank so badly it leaked. Why? Acids. You don't use RECLAIM OIL, your using old drained crankcase oil. Nomenclature matters, especially on a technical forum. :ROFLMAO: Its a choice deal, use what you...

    Reclaimed Oil for push mower.

    Yeah but you missed the most important step, the refinery process. This part--- The resulting re-refined (reclaimed) oil can be used to make new lubricants or other petroleum products. Yours is just old filtered used oil.

    Reclaimed Oil for push mower.

    I think your using the wrong term. As you are not reclaiming the oil. Its just plain old USED MOTOR OIL, period. Heres the definition. Reclaimed oil is used oil that has been cleaned, processed, and restored so it can be used again. The exact meaning depends on the type of oil Motor oil...

    Reclaimed Oil for push mower.

    Used oil is free fuel. And that is what you do by giving it to the auto parts store, it is mainly used to mix with bunker oil for ships etc. at least that was the case in years past. Used acidic dirty oil is not for lubrication.

    I don't think I can go back to gas vehicle due to fuel costs

    How can anyone concerned about $ and Gas, think high costs of electric cars saves anything? The only place that can work on them is the dealer. They are not infallible, and can have many different problems through the years. Oh yeah buy new when the warranty is out. With all that expense, makes...
