Re: Some helpful FAQs, newcomers PLEASE READ!
From time to time I'll add a link to a post in this message that I think is of profound value. I can't stress it enough, folks. Look through these FIRST to see if your question has already been answered! Don't make me come in there and slap you
First of all, many of the questions you have can be answered at www.howstuffworks.com. Its not expected for you to understand everything there first, but I can almost guarantee that someone there has taken weeks to compile, edit, and publish an answer to your question that here we can only spit out a quick reply. This forum is a great place to refine your understanding of what you learn at the How Stuff Works website. Most of these are ones that struck me as important, but if there is one that you want to see, let me know and I'll give it a look-seeEnjoy the links below or I'll have to beat you. Hybrids from an engineering standpoint Added 4-11-05 Synthetic vs. Regular oil Mixing Synthetic and Regular Added 5-3-05 Pulsating brakes and the warped rotors myth Reading tire sidewalls Schools for auto training How to get started in auto tech How to learn auto tech Added 9-19-05 Oil Additives Difference between HP and Torque *excellent info* Burning AVgas (100LL) in your car debate Weight reduction and performance/MPG More Torque/HP debate *another excellent one* Added 10-20-05 Spark plug tech Added 1-3-06 Why are there no diesel performance cars in the US? An excellent discussion of exhaust "backpressure" vs. flow Calculating flow potential and some theory on flow vs. velocity Added 2-15-06 To warm up the car, or not warm up the car Use of A/C and Overdrive and their effect on MPG Added 2-25-06 Some catalytic converter tech Added 3-23-06 Interference vs. non-interference motors Added 11-26-06 The truth about gasoline Added 12-28-07 More warped rotor discussion More on Synthetic vs. Conventional oil Acetylene as a fuel... some good theory and tech here More on the Hydrogen power myth Diesel performance vs. Gasoline
