My message #81 started with a quote from user "privilege" If you have him on your "ignore" list, then you won't see it. Too bad that the system...
It appears that you ran the car more than a minute or two with dangerously low or NO oil in it. A lot of "wear" parts are likely damaged now, as...
If that really IS a tender versus a full sized charger, it might take up to 12 hours to get a usable charge in it. Spending ~ $10 on a multi-meter...
Excellent advice. But that is in direct conflict with the immediate panic reaction for those with Hybrid Compulsive Syndrome. :)
BUT......apparently you can't READ.......because the quote clearly shows that comment was NOT directed at YOU. :whistle:
It is logical to think that would be the end of the story on that.........but sometimes it is NOT.
It makes no difference. It is illegal for YOU to do it too. Unless it will be operated 100% off-road.
THAT is not a good thing to do. It can plug up the evap emission loop and cause the engine to run bad. MY owners manual specifically says to NOT...
And YOU are probably giving out bad advice, based on assumptions that might not be true. What they did sounds like a normal procedure to me.
Often maybe but not "always". At least not at any normal speed.
No not always. Fresh engine oil is usually transparent in small amounts. The "dye" glows under an ultraviolet light.
That is a good "ball park" price in the US.......but labor is almost always extra........and might approach the price of the battery itself.
Did they NOT tell you to bring it back for an inspection after 500 miles or so ?? Waiting until the next change might make the actual spot of the...
There is a difference between "city" driving, that is driving at a steady but slow speed, and "stop an go" driving. With most vehicles, you get...
It alters the fuel/air characteristics of the engine. And if that specific configuration has not been submitted to the EPA for testing and...
It's not just ANY truck. It needs to be a BAD ASSED big, loud, mean truck. :eek: Ridiculous. Most of them will never see a load that is too big...
Your results look "normal" to me. Steady state driving will almost always yield a higher average MPG number than stop-and-go situations.......up...
That would be my guess too. But not having it on "recirculate" can make a BIG difference too.
Don't hold your breath. "Americans" seem to have an increasing need to be "bad asses" in public. That precludes them from driving a small car.
Thanks for the elaboration. I hope Beth sees it.
