Also, it idles okay?
@Brenten.Ryan-AZ no they aren't OEM and it does idle like it did before this particular issue began, I think there's an air leak somewhere though, because it is idling rough
Is it misfiring? I suppose on a motorcycle misfiring will cause a stall when you give it gas. @Brenten.Ryan-AZ ?
It is possible, I’d back track every step that you took while changing spark plugs and make sure everything is installed correctly. You can take a hand held propane tank to check for intake leaks (lean condition) and see it it changes idle at all
Are spare tires really gonna wear out after 50 miles? I had to put one on the other day and won't have a chance to get a replacement until tomorrow.
You should be okay if you haven’t used it before and you drive slow
Just keep an eye on the tread, most donuts have bright color striping that uncovers as the tread wears. Donuts are typically made out of soft rubber, and the nature of a spare tire means less surface area to spread the weight of the vehicle, so don't rely on them any longer than you need to.
Good tip about the paint. I put about 120 miles on it before I could get it changed out and it hadn't worn the tread out completely. Maybe another 30 miles
How do I tell of my truck has over head cams or valves ?
Overhead cams operate the valves.
An overhead cam is just the camshaft mounted on top of the engine block
In this gif, the cams are at the top and the crankshaft is at the bottom.
oops. @Mark Vandal
Long story short, you can see overhead cams on top of the engine block.
@this_that5553 this is a good place to get car help.
@bostoneuropean For someone looking to buy a car in the 10k - 12k range, what might you recommend? Where from and any specific models?
@this_that5553 Sedan wise go american for multiple reasons of course and because its cheap also cheap to fix you can find something newer around (2014) 65k miles for 12k no problem look into chevy sedans they are always dirt cheap
Is the Honda craze a fad? I've always driven asian cars that were from the 90's. Amazing cars. Have american ones gotten better?
See, I've heard American sedans used to be total shit from like 2000 to 2010, but now have gotten better
Tbh I just prefer something younger like a Civic. My parents and grandparents all drive American sedans that feel like I'm in a nursing home lol
american cars have 100% gotten better for example gm look at how their product has gotten better ever since the bail out i would suggest a 14 malibu w 65k miles would cost you around that instead of going asian and joing the libtards driving toyotas and hondas
if i were you i would take that 12k a buy a nice truck
by all means go buy a used prius
I just bought a car at CarMax, got a great deal
@John O -#7072 what did you get?
2015 Impala
13k
40k miles
Goin undercover as a black guy eh? Nice!
Yeah, that's my joke with the guys at work
My local police actually used to use impala patrol cars
@John O - thats actually a good deal LS, LT, or LTZ
Mine too, but I didn't want to deal with a decommissioned cop car
LT
LTZ actually
damn fully loaded huh? for 13 k thats like 50k brand new
my example exactly about getting something american almost new for cheap
