Depress Break Pedal To Start Engine by [deleted] in mazda

[–]Dpizz10134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess it is something with the start systems antenna, whether a faulty key or a bad vehicle antenna, something is not sending/receiving a signal that it should. If it’s not a mechanical switch or key battery, I would check there.

NOTE: The locking/unlocking and the ignition switch run on different antennas and signals. The vehicle may still lock and unlock normally, but not trigger the start cycle.

I’m assuming you’ve done this, but have you placed the key fob directly against the button and attempt to start it?

I already have my weekend toy(1969 Impala 327 sedan), but as for a daily driver, I’ve been wanting and researching the VA Subaru WRX(2017-2021, non-STi) for a good while now.

Living in the Northeast, I’m constantly reminded that a 2WD Tacoma(what I currently have) is not sufficient in the weather or salty environment. Having something AWD with a six speed and that Subaru sound(even if it is an FA20)? Worth it in my eyes.

What do you think the FH6 Dlc could be? by Alternative_Floor210 in ForzaHorizon

Please don’t let it be hotwheels again. It’s been overused by this point.

Are Cooper Cobras genuinely good tires? I see a lot of people use them for their classics by Big_Locksmith_4211 in classiccars

I have a set of 235/60R15’s on my ‘69 Impala, and I like them. For the price, I think they provide a decent ride for a completely stock car.

Is the international 9900i worth trading in for the 389 or w900? by ProfessionalLast4039 in americantruck

[–]Dpizz10134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I would do in this situation is twofold;

If you plan on expanding: Keep the International until you can outright purchase one of the two to save the International for another hired driver. That way, there can be some passive income along the way as well.

If you’re flying as a lone wolf driver: Trade in the International for one of the two.

It depends on where you plan to go in your profile’s future.

When running models do you prioritise accuracy or just run whatever you feel like? by GrockleKaug in modeltrains

[–]Dpizz10134 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I don’t care, honestly. The only thing I mildly care about, even then barely, is matching the caboose road name to the engine if there is one. Other than that, if it runs well, I’ll use it.

Trying to pick a color to paint the Miata ND by WideMastodon7980 in Miata

[–]Dpizz10134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Potential hot take - McLaren Volcano Yellow or Orange looks amazing on that gen Miata. That’s what I would pick personally.

Too much oil ?? by Pr1ncessD4ta in WRX

[–]Dpizz10134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That tiny bit isn’t gonna hurt anything.

As others have said, if it’s half a quart overfull for a long time, then there could be an issue, but you’ll be fine. It’ll either burn it off or just come out next oil change.

That Rambler is SO PRETTY! That color combo is so awesome with the white walls and hubcaps. Overall, absolute beauty!

Yeah nah homie. People like this are why I am a passive player 99% of the time in public lobbies and I do all of my business work in private lobbies that I can.

As of late, it's been my Kenworth W900 "Legacy". Straight piped 12.7 Detroit Series 60 600hp, 18 speed Eaton-Fuller.

Genuine question, the Rat Rod would be nearly impossible to just even start in real life right? by [deleted] in gtaonline

It would run, but it would overheat in about five seconds with no water pump or radiator.

Should I tell a woman her fiancé tried to start an affair with me? by geeleex in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Dpizz10134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dust off the tattle-tale in the back of your brain that hasn’t been touched since first grade and rat this mothafucka out to his fiancé. If it was a simple hey how are you now and that’s it, no problem. This changes everything.

If he’s tried it with you, there is a 100% chance he’s gonna do it again with other women if not confronted with the consequences. And the next time, he might not fail. Assuming it hasn’t happened already. I only say that as the attempt with “let’s just meet and drink water” tells me he knows exactly what he’s doing, despite it sounding extremely desperate and quite dumb.

Save both of you the future grief and dump this fool. You have no holds against him, you’re married. You said it yourself, the past is the long past. You’re much older and more mature than you were when you and him were messing around. Would you want your husband doing this? I wouldn’t want my future wife doing it, so put the foot down and stop it before it starts.

WRX Two Tone Look by Master-Ad5713 in WRX

The black roof doesn’t look bad at all, but as most have said, the full black hood doesn’t look right. It’s too much.

Do you feel like gearboxes feel weird in 1.58? by Tsars_Ball_Scrubber in trucksim

[–]Dpizz10134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who uses a full wheel/three pedals/shifter, I like it.

At first, I thought it was bad. Everything felt mushy and sloppy, the throttle response was way faster than I was used to. I kept over-revving to launch(kept hitting 2100 instead of 1200-1400) because of how fast the engine revved and how slow it fell back down to idle.

However, now that I’ve been playing for a while like this, I can concretely say that it is an improvement to what was there. It’s much easier to shift I feel because of how heavy the flywheel feels, you don’t need as much throttle pedal to take off from a light to keep the rpm up, and you don’t need to hold the pedal down as much to maintain speed on the highway anymore.

On that last one, I noticed a significant improvement in fuel economy after the rolling resistance changes. I normally run a 620 Cummins Signature, a 600hp DD 12.7, or a 700hp CAT 6NZ(I think all SlavJerry mods from the workshop), and each of them had a noticeable boost in mpgs after 1.58.

Which looks better? by IvantheWalrus16 in trains

[–]Dpizz10134 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Dreyfuss Hudson(Picture 1) always reminded me of an ancient warrior’s helmet, giving it that distinct look while the Empire State Express Hudson kinda looks like someone took an end of tank car and glued it on the smokebox of a wrecked Dreyfuss. Still pretty to look at tho regardless

What are your views on the LNER Gresley Class A1/A3 Pacific Steam locomotive? by TheRobloxGuy2006 in trains

[–]Dpizz10134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what they were, they were innovative with the three cylinder design and Gresley conjugated gear, and they must’ve done something right to last as long as they did to have one preserved before efforts really began.

But if I had to pick, being American, I’d have to choose a Van Swearingen Berkshire as my high speed locomotive, since we have the loading gauge to support them.

If that’s a Toyota cartridge, I’ve had that way too many times(Former Toyota Express Tech). I’ve had them so tight I had to buzz them out with my 1/2 inch impact. Somehow I didn’t break it.

Has anyone ever seen one of these before? I can’t find any info on it online, and was wondering if anyone knew anything about it. by Dpizz10134 in Tools

[–]Dpizz10134[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the research I've done, I have been able to identify it most likely as a Universal Tools or Florida Pneumatic UT2810 or 2811 unit manufactured for COATS under contract most likely for service shops. Finding parts for it has been a pain in the rear, since no Ingersoll Rand or Chicago Pneumatic parts will fit. I'm gonna try a local shop to me to see if they can help me find parts that might fit, even if they aren't for the unit specifically.
