Find oil life before the Oil Life Monitor reminder pops up by
Yong Huang
Is it possible to find out how much oil life is left before the Oil Life Monitor reminder pops up? Or when or at what mileage the OLM was last reset? I can't find the receipt from the shop where I had the oil changed last time. I know only they reset OLM. Instead of waiting for the reminder to pop...

Synthetic And Regular Oil Together Question ? by
Robert11
Hello,
If your car had an oil change at the Dealership where they put in "Synthetic
Oil," what would
happen if you add a needed qt. later, e.g. on the road where synthetic might
not be available ?
Are the two types of oil miscible ?
Would any engine harm (likely) happen ?

Running a car on water via electrolysis by
Rarpy
Ever since the first patent in the 1930's, it seems
people just want to debunk the idea of combusting
hydrogen from water inside an internal combustion
engine, but yet again it seems a company has
produced the technology to make it happen:

Changing a flat tire.... with a sledgehammer?? by
Existential Angst[_2_]
Had to sledgehammer the flat tire/rim off the hub, it had rusted on so
hard -- which is strange, bec the tires had been rotated a month or two
ago.
I've had to kick rims off hubs before, but never sledgehammer it off -- and
I'm not talking taps, I'm talking full swings. I almost gave up!! ...

The cellphone paradox - where are all the accidents? by
ceg
The cellphone paradox - where are all the accidents?
The Fermi Paradox is essentially a situation where we "assume" something
that "seems obvious"; but, if that assumption is true, then something else
"should" be happening. But it's not.
Hence, the paradox.
Same thing with the cellphone...

Mopar Follies (was: easiest engine) by

I have no beef against DaimlerChrysler, FoMoCo or General Motors. In
my opinion all have made some beautiful things and some dog poop.
However it's been brought to my attention that some consider Chrysler
Corp. engineering without peer or flaw. All I can say is, bull****.
