@{CAP}Radeon A lada can be fixed with a hammer and someones grandmother. - russian saying

Hahaha

People hate being shown a collection of their own side and what they do when they get together @{CAP}Radeon

I know, and you can fix a deck with termites or an angry beaver..

> @Zuluzeit still interesting I dabble in alot of different things. Some I was taught growing up and others I have stumbled across ultimately they al try to explain us.
@Darkangael Maybe just the examination of it is the helpful part...

@Beth If the car stops the male has either failed in his duty to maintain the vehicle properly, or he is soon to fail in his task of fixing it.

This is why you keep getting flipped off... you could have just joined the horoscope convo, and been friends...

@Doc you act like changing a tire is rocket surgery

Or he failed to replace it when it was the right time.

So he gets out and kicks it. Clever.

Lmfao rocket surgery

@Cali La La that goes against my horoscope

@ImNotGas No, but changing an DB4 pump on a detroit diesel can somtimes feel like it. 😉

That one made me LOL 😂

why are you doing that on the road?

Indeed!

@ImNotGas You need to create an angular and a straight 19 mm wrench, both with an open ring of about 9mm to get your specially made tool over the injection lines.

I have a German diesel and in order to get the oil filter out you have to use a 32mm socket. Hahaha

@{CAP}Radeon africa tip, if you have no tool and need the oil filder out, use a scarf and some sort of rod.

like a tourniquet

@Zuluzeit the better to understand imo

@Darkangael, you just advanced to level 7!

Or kick it?

or just leave it over night, and only the frame will be left. You can easily access where the filter once was.

That’s usually the preferred method, apparently

I Kidd, lol but In all reality, getting the filter unscrewed and then maneuvering it through all the coolant and electrical lines is rough.

you need a womans hand, my lord!

Especially if you don’t want oil all over everything and you and I know diesel oil is really dirty!

I hope everyone enjoyed the diesel repair tips that are useless for every sane person that doesnt keep a diesel truck as a personal vehicle

Beat the Steering Wheel may be a close Second...

Mine is a car

This is my go-to

am i the only person here who doesnt have frequent breakdowns?

And it gets close to 50 miles per gallon.

Apparently, yes

Mechanical or Emotional?

hahaha!

Ever since I wasn’t 20 years old I don’t often have breakdowns..

@Doc knows all about a woman having a breakdown! 🙈😂

I rarely break down but when I do the dance is hopping lol🤸‍♀️

yeah i stopped driving a junker once i got out of college
