Automotive Articles I receive a lot of questions regarding oil and the least understood part is the number system used to rate oils. Oil weight, or viscosity, refers to how thick or thin the oil is. The temperature requirements set for oil, by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) is 0 degrees F (low) and 210 degrees F (high). Oils meeting the SAE's low temperature requirements have a "W" after the viscosity rating (example: 10W), and oils that meet the high ratings have no letter (example SAE 30). Oil is rated for viscosity by heating it to a specified temperature, and then allowing it to flow out of ...

If you bought a ... Author: Kevin Schappell CLICK HERE TO READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE Congratulations !!!! You got the deal you were looking for. Now is the perfect time to mention to the dealer that you are looking to trade in that car you are currently driving. This way they cannot jack up the new car costs and offer you more for your car to make it seem like a better deal. If your trade-in is in good shape you should be looking for a price somewhere between retail and wholesale. If your car is spotless make sure the dealer knows he will not have to recondition it. Most research sites list trade-in value in the pricing reports, this is a good starting point. If your trade-in ...

Author: Cherie Szilvagyi CLICK HERE TO READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE Online Sales and The Auto Dealer Auto Dealers are finding selling their vehicles online hit or miss at best. Auto Trader and Ebay along with Smart Auction from General Motors are offering some of the best options to an Auto Dealer. Why is it that less than 10% of the vehicles listed online are actually selling? There are plenty of companies offering solutions but none seem to be working on a consistent basis. What about the dealer with an internet department? Is he any more successful? Internet selling has gotten to be big business for the local Auto Dealer. Large or small deale ...

Dabei sind die Hintergründe vielfältig und in vielen Fällen auch unternehmensseitig als relevant anzusehen. Bisher haben sich die Automobilhersteller aber noch sehr zurückgehalten und es sind im Markt derzeit nur zaghafte Versuche zu erkennen das Internet in's Auto zu bringen. Renommierte Automobilhersteller wie Audi, BMW und Mercedes haben bereits vereinzelt IT-Funktionen und ... Author: German News CLICK HERE TO READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE Chapter Four “Most marriage failures are courtship failures” -- PAUL H. LANDIS ………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. And that’s true. A good courtship makes a good marriage. But the problem is that some do not even know the purpose of courtship, and when to begin it. Most courtships are no less than crushes -- an infatuated love for a favorite teacher, pop star or some other celeb. And this starts earlier in girls than in boys. These daydreamers, however, end up sick and depressed. Because the truth is that they may never get to meet such one in per ... Author: Arthur Zulu CLICK HERE TO READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE It’s a common sight: soda cans, gum wrappers, and snack bags strewn all over the floor; books, magazines, and carrying cases haphazardly placed on a seat; and miscellaneous papers and trinkets shoved into any nook and cranny available. What is this disorganized place? A college frat house, a mad scientist’s office? No. It’s the typical disorganized car--and it could easily belong to you or someone you know. Whether you’re traveling for business or pleasure, the automobile is still the most common means of getting to your destination. In fact, for many people, their car has become their "hom ... The short answer is: It’s better to be safe than sorry. That may sound trite but that’s the advice I give adult children who are worried about whether their elderly mother or father should still be driving. The major deciding factor should be this: if you think your parent can get hurt or endanger the lives of pedestrians, other drivers and their passengers, then the time has come to ask for the keys. It won’t be easy. Driving is the single most important issue that represents freedom, independence and self-esteem for your elderly parent. Take that away and parents often feel he ...

A very clever design: the Honda Super Cub was the combination of a moped and a scooter. It attracted many people due to its friendly and non intimidating look. People who before had felt threatened by bigger motorcycles, approached and adopted this model very quickly. It was a versatile motorcycle and had enough power to carry two passengers or a passenger with luggage. Its large diameter tires and wide seats made the ride almost as comfortable as the touring bikes from that time. >> Honda 50cc Cub and Super Cub FACTS - In 1952 Honda built 7000 units of this bike whi ... This is always a difficult one to answer when shopping for motorcycle parts and I firmly believe that each one of us must decide what's best for our bikes AFTER carefully evaluating each of the possibilities. For me? Well... it really depends on what I am looking for - just replacement or improvement - , the availability of the part, my budget and other things. Sometimes I buy OEM, others aftermarket motorcycle parts. Keep reading. You will find some views that will hopefully help you decide the next time you shop for motorcycle parts. What a heck are OEM parts?? ...Author: Daniel Levy CLICK HERE TO READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE People have to work to survive. The desire to maintain increasingly indulgent lifestyles drives 13% of workers to travel over 100 miles a day to get to and from work. These so called “stretch commuters” make the majority of these trips by personal vehicle, but when it comes to trading in their tired automobiles for newer models should they just settle for a bank auto loan? Stretch commuters do not have a lot of time on their hands. They spend most of their working week either at work, or travelling to and from it. When they get home exhausted the last thing they want to do is to look ... What do alarm systems and automobile tires have in common? This may sound like a strange question to the untrained ear, but lend me yours and I will make sense of it. The reason I mention car tires is that they are a necessity that most all of us have some experience purchasing, at least once in a while. Even though we need good tires to keep our cars firmly on the road, when they are wearing out we often put the purchase off for a few weeks. If we are patient, a Saturday will eventually come along that we have no plans for, and we force ourselves to go to our local tire store.< ... Remember back when selling online was a new experience?

This may sound a little strange, but one day a man called in looking for some water for his car. That was not unusual, until he started to put it into his hydraulic reservoir for the braking system of his car. I was young and curious, but he explained that water would suffice. Many years later and some hydraulic experience, it seems that he was right. Or partly so! It should be remembered that twenty-five years ago, and anywhere from there back, the properties of rubber seals were different. Not deviating, but going some way to explain where the hydraulic oil/brake fluid, actually wen ...
