My car started making a shrieking noise and then it was very hard to turn.?

I almost crashed trying to turned because it was so hard to turn. It’s not the power steering. Does the belt pulley have anything to do with it, or is it something else?

It’s a Chevy Malibu 1997

Eve Online Questions, VERY CONFUSING.?

1) So I’ve been reading about Eve and doing some research. I am completely lost here on what to do. Here is what I have so far, I want to become a fighter, maybe someone who kills ships and stuff and fights.

The problem is I heard starting off as a miner is more important because you need money, I don’t mind this at all. The thing is, what about my stats? I heard that you need like specific stats for specific things, like Mining needs some stats differently than fighting stats, such as intelligence. So I work as a miner for a couple months to a year and build my stats around mining, how on earth am I suppose to become a fighter with such stats then? Will I be gimped that way?

I heard that you can reset your stats once every year? So I can reset my stats after a year as a miner and become a fighter, correct? I’m so confused, I am so totally lost, I am a complete big fat noobie at this game. Please help me out, thanks.

2) Also I have another question that’s entirely different, so there are skills (Industry, Learning, Mechanic, Navigation, Spaceship Command) that you train and you put them in the queue, etc. These skills will train when you are offline correct? Also is there a limit to these skills? Like is there a cap on how much I can level each one? Do leveling specific ones cap out different ones from being leveled? Such as in another game let’s say for example; in this game you have 4 strength at level 1 and the max level for that game is let’s say 50, if I level up my strength only until lvl 50, then I won’t be able to lvl up my agility because it’s been capped out by my strength, get it?

Does Eve online limit you that way too? Or can you level EVERY skill (Industry, Learning, Mechanic, Navigation, Spaceship Command) to the max?

3) Also when you die on Eve, do you lose all the skills (Industry, Learning, Mechanic, Navigation, Spaceship Command) that you’ve gained alongside with your ship? Or do you only lose your ship if you don’t have insurance?

My VERY strange car….?

Can someone shed some light as to what I should think about my car? I’ll tell you all about it… It’s quite a story to tell!

Stats:
Year: 1993
Make: Toyota
Model: Camry DX
Color: Hunter Green
Engine/transmission: 2.4 Liter 4 Cylinder 5-Speed Manual transmission
Mileage: 163,000 Miles

I’m going to list all of the strange things about my car… tell me what you think!
•I understand that this is a 2.4 liter 4 cylinder car, but the cars power is very weak compared to others that I have driven of the same engine. The strange part is… the car seems to be MORE powerful on a full tank of gas rather than on ¼ tank, ½ tank, or even ¾ tank! The car just likes FRESH gas! How bitchy is that?!
•The dome light on the inside: It blows every 3 days. Every time I change the bulb, it blows 3 days later. This has happened 3 times already. I gave up. Flashlight it is!
•The car seems to be losing oil somewhere. I have checked my parking spot, and usually check the parking spot where I park at work. I also have checked my parking spot at my sisters and my grandmother’s houses. No sign of oil leak anywhere. However, every 2-3 months I end up having to put a quart of oil in the car. STRANGE.
•The car is REALLY good on gas. A trip from Gainesville Fl to Fort Lauderdale Fl (315 miles, 4.5 hours) only uses half a tank of gas! However, when my best friend drives the car, it seems to burn double the amount of gas. We typically have just about the same driving style… I’m just gonna assume that my car doesn’t like my best friend. :/
•The gas meter works properly. However, let’s say there’s ¼ tank of gas left… If you remove the gas cap for a minute or so, then cap the tank again, the needle reads that I have a bit more gas than before.
•The radio chooses to turn all the way up or all the way down on its own. Totally randomly too. This is not a stock radio. It is an aftermarket JVC CD/AM/FM radio.
•This car does NOT like the cold weather at all. This is strange because the car has a Canadian engine in it. I assume this because when I had to buy a distributer cap or some other strange thing that goes under the hood, I had to get the Canadian specification of the part. Any who, when the weather is cold outside, I start the car with the clutch. When I let loose the clutch after starting there is a CLUMP noise. This is the ONLY time there is that clumping noise. Also, when the engine is cold, the car is HELL to drive. Shifting gears? Virtually impossible. You have to baby the clutch. Seriously, like an infant clutch or something.
•Remember we talked about how weak the car is in power? When the AC or the Heater is turned on, the car SIGNIFICANTLY looses MORE power. When the car is idle, I have to hold my foot on the gas pedal slightly to keep the engine revving high enough so that it doesn’t shake really bad. But once again, this is ONLY when the AC or Heater is on.
•I have had the car for almost 2.5 years. The AC works perfect. Never put any Freon. I thought I would have had to by now but it still blows VERY cold and sometime I turn it off and on in increment because it blows so well!
•There is a rumbling noise every time I hit a bump with the rear passenger side of the car. This also happens anytime there is a fat person on the passenger side of the car. I have spent more than 600 dollars troubleshooting this noise but no one can figure it out. New motor mounts, new struts and shocks, muffler checked out, exhaust pipe checked out, etc. No mechanic can seem to figure out the noise.
•Keys. When I insert my key with the logo Up on the key and start the car, I am able to pull the key out o f the ignition. However, when I use the key with the logo facing down, I cannot pull the key out of the transmission unless I turn the car off.
•Toyota Camry’s are known for their broken door handles, but my car is a bit different. Vengeful if I may. Everytime I fix ONE door, ANOTHER door breaks. When I got the car, one back door didn’t have a handle. I put a new one on and the OTHER back door handle broke. So I put a new handle on THAT door and the lock on the inside of the OTHER back door broke. So once I had my dad to fix that lock, the outside handle on the OTHER door broke again. I then changed it AGAIN, and now the lock on the other side is broken again. Oh well, forget it!
•I have had this car for 2.5 years and the driver side headlight STILL works. I have changed the passanger side headlight at least 4 times.
•I have never had to change the brake lights.
•I have new battery terminals. However sometimes they still disengage. If the car wont start, just open the door, then slam it. This is JUST ENOUGH force by shaking the car to make the battery terminals connect closely enough again.

Overall I am very satisfied with the car… I mean I put about 22,000 miles on it every year for 2 years in a row and it still rides great with little maintainence…… But its just weird! A VERY WEIRD CAR!

Why do chevy small blocks have very flat torque curves compared to overhead cam engines?

I was just checking out dynos for chevy small blocks since 80s and horsepower and torque curves are very flat across the rpms.

Now the dohc engines most modern little cars use there spikes or peaks through the rpm band.

Range Rover Classic going down a very steep hill ‘you got the fear’ special edit.


RRC goes down a very steep hill with a tricky vertical section in the middle, the rear axle actually leaves the ground as it drops off the vertical section,and fully compresses the rear suspension as it lands, but this is all in a days work for a Land Rover’ TO ATTEMPT THIS IN ANY OTHER MAKE OF 4X4 COULD LEAD TO DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY!

VERY confused about obd1 testing for 1994 Pontiac Trans Sport 3800?

Are there 2 types of OBD1? I know it is not an OBD2. We went to test the computer to see the trouble codes and it is completely different than what is in the manual for this type of van. There are only 3 wires going to the terminal to test it. Sooooo, any ideas? I hope I am making some sense…
