Second big problem: GM's cost-cutters decided not to fit a water separator. Unlike gasoline, diesel fuel is subject to water condensation – hence the need for a water separator. Without one, water in the fuel becomes water in the engine, where it can rust either the cylinders or the complicated mechanical fuel injection pump.
For instance, if your car's value has dropped to $25,000 but you still owe $30,000 on your loan, gap insurance would cover that $5,000 difference if your car is totaled or stolen.
The engine and transmission were mounted on a separate subframe which was secured with only six bolts. The entire drive train could thus be lowered and removed from the car in minutes. Tucker envisioned loaner engines being quickly swapped in for service in just 30 minutes. [17] Tucker envisioned several other innovations that were later abandoned.
For example, if the selector is in the 'D' position and the car is moving backwards, (on a steep enough hill to overcome the torque from the torque converter) the engine will stall, because the engine is forced to turn in the opposite direction to what it is actually doing. This is because, hypothetically, if the car is rolling backward fast ...
The sheriff said Tesla CEO Elon Musk helped the investigation by having the truck unlocked after it auto-locked in the blast and giving investigators video of the suspect at charging stations ...
The reason those traffic laws I mentioned apply throughout the state is because we have a lot of shared private space where we drive. Most parking lots are private property, and some roads in ...
At idle speeds on a new engine poor machining tolerances could prevent the lifter from spinning and destroy the camshaft. After 20 minutes of wear, or "self machining" at higher engine speeds they would typically be able to spin freely. In the past, the engine break-in period was very important to the overall life and durability of the engine.
The company’s website still lists a six-speed manual transmission on the front-wheel drive 2.5 S Premium trim level with a 191-horsepower four-cylinder engine.
