mark asked:
That is, if I want to leave the battery in approximately the same charged state as before starting the car, roughly how long do I have to run the engine to make up for the draw on the battery to start it? 5 minutes? 10 minutes? 30?

P B asked:
I have a Nitro RC car with a pull start engine. I’ve finally got the engine to start, the only thing is, the wheels immediately start spinning… I don’t think this is normal, and may perhaps need some clutch tuning that I know nothing about. I have to hold the brakes on the transmitter so the car doesn’t move, as soon as I release the brakes the car takes off, not very quickly like but moves forward nonetheless. I’m not sure what might need to be done, any help you provide will be greatly appreciated.

My car just stop on me. When I tried to crank it back up it sounded like the motor was rumbling. I just got full service on my car about 4 month ago and I’m suprised they didn’t tell me it was looking bad. I just got this car a year ago it’s a 99 pontiac grand am. Do anyone have an idea about this?

ethereal_beauty06 asked:
I am thinking of buying a car and I am confused as to the kind of engine I should s, settle for, a diesel engine or a gasoline engine? Others say that a diesel engine is better than a gasoline engine. However, a diesel engine accordingly has a shorter lifespan.
If this is so, is there a standard lifespan for car engines? I need to know about this since I am also considering of buying a used car, hence I have to reckon with the number of mileage. I can’t find anything on the internet about engine lifespan.

Elijah asked:
My mom says if you leave your cars air conditioning on when you turn the car off, so it automatically is on when you turn your car on, that it hurts the engine. Is that true or is she full of BS? It sounds like complete BS to me.

azjohn2001 asked:
My girlfriend has a 2002 Hyundai Accent with about 130,000 miles. We took it to a car wash. After leaving the car wash, the check engine light started flashing and the engine shook. After about 15 minutes the shaking stopped and the car drove normally again. This happened about 3 weeks ago and there have been no issues since then. What would cause her car to do this?

prawn74 asked:
Looking at cars and the car industry in the past all different car manafactures using specied oils for there vehicles and today there seems to be a unversal oils that are used in all types of cars instead of having individual oils .In my opinion it will affect a cars performance as manafactured oils are even specified for the type of metal used in the car engine and gearboxs.All motor industry must have specified oils as even the magnetic compressed engine conversion for petrol engines need crank case oil as iit has a all aluminuim engine block and aluminuim head so the magnetic field will not be interfered with.
