Get Out

@horsepower Sounds like you need a bigger tank.

Just paid $45 to fill the Honda Fit up from empty… and I fill up about 2-3 times a day 🙃

@FrankBr05713205 They may have made power, but the head gaskets of these failed regularly due mostly to the factory composite intake manifold.

Here is a great engine cut away I have. It is a GM 3800 supercharged V6. Two series of these engines were made between 1995 and 2007. They were very reliable and durable with an iron block and were considered by many as one of GM‘s best. They delivered between 240 to 260 hp and 280 foot pounds of torque using an Eaton M 90 supercharger which was factory equipped. This engine appeared in the Buick Regal, Pontiac Grand Prix, Pontiac, Bonneville, Buick Park Ave., Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS and Chevrolet impala SS but many were swapped into other vehicles. And with some simple upgrades, the horsepower could be further increased easily.

@washghost1 Would probably end up being an EV.

What a new Chevy Nova would look like

@skscartoon Lol! Is that a Pawnee?

I believe this is the answer to the Drone problem.

@histories_arch Getting big time Mad Mike Hughes vibes here.

In 1970, during a severe snowstorm in Czechoslovakia, railroad workers used the jet engine of a MiG-15 fighter jet to defrost frozen railway tracks, an inventive solution that kept critical transportation running despite extreme winter conditions. A MiG-15 jet engine, originally designed for a Cold War fighter aircraft, was mounted and redirected toward frozen tracks. Its exhaust, blasting out at temperatures exceeding 500°C (900°F), was capable of rapidly melting ice, packed snow, and even clearing debris from rail lines. The MiG-15 itself, introduced in the late 1940s, could reach speeds of over 1,000 km/h (620 mph). But here, its strength wasn’t speed, it was raw thermal force. In extreme conditions where conventional plows struggled, this improvised solution helped keep critical rail routes operational. Similar jet-powered snow removal systems were later tested and used in parts of the Soviet Union and North America, though their fuel consumption and noise made them impractical for widespread, long-term use. © Reddit #archaeohistories

@MotorTrend Buying the inline 6 duramax was the best decision I made when I bought my new Silverado half ton.

Objectively worse than the new I-6 twin-turbo engine in every way, the V-8 option returns to let people know you wanted a V-8. motortrend.com/reviews/ram-15…

@BigJonnyQuest @itsqail That’s an Integra, not a Civic.

@itsqail Recently this civic was speeding around, weaving in and out of traffic, before cutting me off. I was seeing red. Then I read his bumper sticker. Couldn’t even be mad.

Worst drivers u can encounter on the road: 1. Teslas (all clueless) 2. Beat up Honda Civic/accord (suicidal drivers) 3. Any BMW (a different kind of douchebag/entitled) 4. Angry F-150 guys (no explanation necessary/they need therapy)

@itsqail You forgot Uber drivers.

@JamesJo56909490 No problem. Don’t even need the clutch.

EVEN WITH A DEAD BATTERY❗👋😎👍

@FrankBr05713205 Sure, maybe. Except steering racks are an absolute nightmare to re and re. Probably break even after labor costs.

For years cars have used hydraulic steering racks that used power steering fluid. Todays cars use electric steering racks which use no power steering fluid. Biggest difference to car owners is replacement cost. The hydraulic rack can be had for approx. $200 to $300 on most cars (plus labor). The electric rack will set you back $ 1,800 (part only) and much more depending on vehicle and they have to be programmed after installation. Technology comes at a cost many times. I will stick to keeping a 3 dollar bottle of power steering fluid on hand for my older car.

@DadsSeasonings Now I know this video is bullshit! He got that bbq lighter to light on the first click. 😂😂

Are these firewood logs too big?

@MechanicaIVideo Looks like the 12 valve Cummins.

@sciencegirl Mighta left for a bit too long.

Cleaning a ships hull

@sciencegirl Do EV’s now.

This rolling barrier system can stop any vehicle driving off the road

@HappyMotorhead Bro! I live in B.C. Hydroplaning is a way of life here.

Have you ever had a vehicle hydroplane on you? #EpicFail

@curiosityonx That Columbus discovered America.

What’s the biggest lie in history?

@financedystop Unfortunately in modern cars, the body control module will not have those features enabled. Yes the wiring is there, but simply adding a switch won’t make it work.

He discovered that behind these harness panels are hidden buttons for cargo lights, fog lights, and other features. Even if the car wasn’t purchased with those upgrades, the wiring is already there and you could just “upgrade” yourself

@Rainmaker1973 Kevin! We got a flat. Go grab the spare.

The size of this hydrogen electric hybrid ATV built for the Arctic is truly massive.

@impact344 @BlueCollarInvr Don’t be hatin’. Guy did a nice job in an era where so many do jack shit.

@BlueCollarInvr Guys and there mig guns thinking that they are welders....

Finally got around to getting my jack on my dump trailer fixed. Local kid came out, fixed the welds and made some gussets to reinforce it. 2 hours in my driveway and now I’m back on the road.

@ndawg_4 Over 80k miles on my 2020 Silverado. Sill has original rad. So far so good.

This post is not about the plastic radiator. Shut up about the plastic. It's about premature failure of a radiator. Radiators have been plastic for decades. They should not fail this early

2022 GMC. 50k miles. These new GM trucks are absolute garbage.
