    RIP Paul Walker

    He was a good Samaritan and seemed to have a good personality. It's terrible that happend and being the passenger he had no control over the accident. My sympathies go out to the friends and family of Paul and the driver. RIP Paul Walker.

    2000 Eclipse Lost Power and Knocking

    Maybe it's spark knock (detonation). Something could of happened causing the car to run lean and caused the tapping sound like a weak fuel pump or something. The fact it idles fine and starts to stumble when you give it gas makes me think it's a fuel issue but it's hard to say. Hope it's nothing...

    How modular are the Ford Modular engine packages?

    With a 4.6 4v you would loose a lot of of bottom end torque which is very important for a truck. My cobra didn't start really pulling till 5,000rpms and peak power was made at 6,800rpms not to mention it would not be a easy or cheap swap into a truck.Your 4.6 3v is rated at 292hp not far from...

It cleaned the deposits from around the valve seals causing oil to slip by and smoke on take off after idling for a min. I would periodically check under the valve...

    What does Jailbroken/Unlocked mean?

    That was the Verizon iphone 5 by the way. I don't know if that changed later on so if you try it don't blame me if it's locked to Verizon.

    A few 'Ricer' car questions...

    A Vtec Honda/Acura can actually be pretty fast for what they are with out FI. A RSX type S can run 14s in the 1/4 mile bone stock that's knocking on a LT1 Camaros door. Honda has held world records for most hp per cubic inch of any NA car. Some K series engines make 230hp NA out of a 2.0L and...

    cell phone freq.

    T-Mobile uses the 1900 PCS band for their 2G voice services and the AWS band for their 3G services which is 1700 for the up link and 2100 for the down link. T-Mobile does have very limited newly deployed 1900 PCS 3G which can be seen at sightings of T-Mobile 3G/4G coverage on 1900MHz (PCS/UMTS...

    Armorall Wax

    Go with Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax or Ultimate Wax they last longer than just about any OTC wax. I have used both and both are easy to apply and remove and the Ultimate Wax doesn't stain trim. They are well liked on detailing forums.

    Most Livable Classic?

    Chevrolet Corvair. They are pretty reliable, definitely unique, and have good fuel economy. It's funny seeing people look at one and trying to figure out what is. Or be prepared and you'll hear stories about one from somebody who remembers seeing them or owning one.

    Dedicated GPS vs Smartphone GPS app

    A dedicated GPS definitely. A dedicated GPS has more features and a better navigating experience due to it's purpose. A smartphone app is a great back up. The cons of the app are it'll use data. The navigation on all of the smartphones I've had raises the phone temperature significantly over a...
