Op here, it will bog when I put on throttle, then at 2k I rev it and it seems to bypass whatever is limiting the revs. It got to 8k no problem running

Just did. When I got it, didn't run, clean carb, runs but revs at 4K

You're not supposed to use them for "regular transportation". Here in Ohio when looking up the fees I found they're only to be driven to and from functions and to perform maintenance and repairs.
I'm guessing that pretty much anything could technically full under those categories and I've never heard of anybody ever having a problem but I thought maybe I'd ask.

I doubt law enforcement is going to care enough to waste their time and hassle you over it

What's the point of having automatic door locks? The only reason I can see having them is so that black people can hear all of my doors lock with me in the car as they walk by.

My friend had her purse snatched from her as a passenger. She was just sitting there at a light in the city with it on her lap, and the guy opened the door, snatched it, and ran. I like the fact it locks when you start driving and stays locked, but I always make sure my doors are locked because I live in north philly

You do carry a set of basic tools, right? Use a knife to cut your clothing to fashion a ghetto gasket and hope it lasts

Call a tow truck?

Hopefully we still have about a gallon of water.
fill 'er up
remove hood with tools
turn heater to max
make it to gasstation before she blows

I indirectly made a police cruiser crash and then drove off out of panic, how fucked am I?
>be Subaru outback owner in bumfuck New England town
>first blizzard of the season, followed by flash freeze struck 2 nights before
>stuck cleaning already half-frozen snow off windows and windshield
>too lazy to do the roof
>left with must have been 200 pounds of ice on the roof
>fast forward to tonight
>driving home from work
>get past the bumper-to-bumper traffic and finally hit a stretch of road where I can do ~40mph at leisure
>police cruiser, a 2006ish Crown Vic is tailgating me for no reason (bumfuck city can't afford anything newer)
>as soon as I get headway speed, all the Ice on my roof decided to come off all at once in a single MASSIVE slab, again at least 200lbs
>hits the asphalt behind me hard and shatters like plexiglass
>fucker barely 2 car lengths behind me doesn't have time to get out of the way and runs over it
>promptly hear rumbling, then a loud SNAP
>cop blew his front suspension, makes a hard right, then flips after hitting a stone wall
>left scared as shit with a million different thoughts in my head but my autism tells me to book it out of there at ~70mph (on a backroad)
What can I expect to happen now? Almost certain the bastard has my plate; even though he was technically tailgating me he could get my ass for 1) running away, 2) not stopping to help and 3)being too lazy to clean my roof.

So I went to change the oil in a old truck and this brown goo came out. It's all the way up the dip stick and at the oil cap and around a few hoses. How do I get rid of it?

I'm about to do the same with my small block. Does the number of valve reliefs really matter?

I would like to think a little above 400 but it's not that big a deal to me
>>14141647
I think it's just for compression. It's what the shortblock had when we bought it

/o/, I can't decide between getting a Volvo XC90 or a Nissan Skyline R34. They're both AWD, about the same price, and have literally the exact same tail lights.
Which should I get?
