Good afternoon all, Maybe this is an amateur question, but based on the build specs below, does anybody have a rough idea (or ballpark guess) of what kind of horsepower this engine could generate? I have yet to get my car dyno'd. If it's something that can't be figured out just by looking at the...

Awl-- I happen to have a 2004 Nissan Frontier pickup, auto, but this is a general Q: I assume that the hydraulics in auto transmissions are (now) electrically actuated, judging from the gear "drop-down" button on the shift handle.

I am so frustrated. Have a 96 silverado. installing new compressor and condensor and dryer. Pulled vacuum but vaccum goes to 0 in about 5 minutes. Where can I go from here? On another note, how can I tell the proper size seal when replacing the seals on the lines?

Both of these engines combust fuel and a non-reciprocal motion occures. Both cases produces a circular motion. However both of these engines are quite different. What explains the differences in power output and efficiencies? They are different in the following ways: 1. The turbines are very...

There have been numerous articles saying there is no difference between cut rate and major brand gasoline. They say buy by price alone. The few times I have purchased cheap no brand name gasolines I have regretted it. Car is hard to start, or when running it runs rough, it pings under load....

Actually, two questions... Just how is the noise produced? I know that large air horns, sirens and such produce the sound by blowing compressed air through holes, like playing a wind instrument, but how is the noise produced in a normal car horn? And as far as the circuitry, I noticed a while...
