Just put 0w40 Mobil 1 in and the line of oil will pop better. I got a new RX8 once with 5w20 which was impossible to read. That 0w40 fixed it.

Yeah, thanks. I didn't know I had it in me, but I had to fight the architect somewhat. He wanted 3.1 meter high rooms like most Indonesian homes, but that's to help cool. I wanted 2.6 meter since the main open living room would be 2 open stories. We picked a 3300ft altitude mountain on a cliff...

I was a hyper daydreaming kid, and would make 100 on spelling on Thursday so didn't have to take test again on Friday. I took a Aptitude test when 15 and maxed the 99+ percentile of mechanical ability, too. Could make A's in science or math, or C- in other stuff. Maybe should have been an...

I love my BMW X1 with professional radio and CD player. I wouldn't dare tinker with any electrical stuff on it, and I leave it off when driving. I wanna hear car purring or any bad noise.

The red and Rio star varieties are really sweet. The old yellow stuff from the 60's was very bitter.

Texas had a severe freeze back in 80's and they replanted with several great red varieties. This year the freeze also got them, but now lots of the Rio Star brand was juiced. I drink it like mad. It turns out that grapefruit keeps a certain enzyme that clears meds out of body. Result is your...

Funny thing, I was feeling bad, and somehow ended up in one of those emergency places. I registered the approx same thing, and they sent me over the street to main hospital. There I accepted the CT scan since I'd had some headaches, but even their measurement was approx 160/90. I later had...

MY Mazda RX8 went right up to 213deg f idling with AC on any hot day. You better keep moving or under hood could get 190deg f. I put a Auto trans cooler on it and both engine water temp and ATF can get down to 193 deg f while driving 100 mph @ 100 deg f. Almost no other car is fussy about high...

I bought a new 07 Mazda RX8, and knew it could handle better, so after driving hard on track a few times, found a guy that would let me help align. We mostly changed the rear camber from -2.3 to minimal -1.65, and it cornered much better. I even had Bilstein shocks put all around later, and it...

I Googled "movie with flipped mustang in a time loop", and this popped up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_featuring_time_loops

I you know any actor in the film Google them, and it'll pop up at least on Wikipedia.

Compare a Boeing 707 takeoff with any modern aircraft, and as to the CO2 air travel is only 2% of world. I don't see a pollution problem on most modern engines.

I learned that you just pay for worst vehicle you can stand. You'll get something better anyway.

Check the receiver latch at bottom to see if it was closed by someone touching it with trunk open.

I never got the car I wanted. I got the car they wanted to to send back to other city. :(

My BMW X1 @ 3700# recommends that high 41 psi for over 100 mph. I think they assume you'll check that one hot so it's not to high. The stock 225/45r18 Pirelli P7 run flats would lose front traction at anything nearing 41 on the track. However, I put the lower 225/40r18 Michelin PS4S up front...

Several other tires internally separated just from trying to run 35 psi cold.

I sold Cooper and other tires. Cooper mostly were pretty good, but this was years ago. I made mistake of trying to use up over 7 years old sport tires, and had 3 separate on a hot weekend. The ones on rear grew larger as tread came off and steered F150 all over road. I guarantee that you better...

I've driven a Dodge Dakota for 90,000, and a Stratus for 95k miles, and sold them knowing pads weren't scoring the rotor. Your pad would be usable if you could still read the bottom of the 85000#, but if new pads are already laying there, just put em on. Don't get me wrong, I drive hard if...

It took me awhile to understand the rear tire and brake pad wear, but it seems the strong ediff on the rear is jerking wheels that spin to a stop, and burning out back up to speed. My X1 s28i runs so much better when I simply put some Akebono Euro ceramic pads all around. OEM pads will grab...
