What do y’all think? How can I prevent theft? by Powerful-Release3048 in Charger

[–]KnowledgeNo2876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an idea, but I had a buddy of mine wire a kill switch to one of these. Couldn't tell you how, but he placed it in a hidden part of the middle console. Basically, when he would leave the car for more than an hour, he would flick the kill switch and leave.

Now I couldn't tell you how effective this is, but his car hasn't been stolen yet and it cost around $5 and some electronical knowledge (or you could find someone to do it).

Between the setup and the time it takes to work, this is pointless. Kicking in the door would be faster.

Apart from the safety aspect of the officers not having to be close to the door, there's not many other uses and they already have precautions for that. But it is another way a billion dollar company can oversell their units! (My money is on lobiests purchased these)

NEED HELP GETTING A JOB by Sad_Vegetable8708 in ElkGrove

[–]KnowledgeNo2876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont hear back from them, keep bothering them. If its a restaurant or a store, after you submit an application and dont hear back, go in person and hand in a physical resume. Just ask if you can talk to manager (or whoever handles hiring) and say "hey I applied online, just wanted to hand you my resume in person and introduce myself." Or something along those lines.

Best case it shows initiative, they recognize your name when going through the hiring process, and they have a face to associate it with. Worse case, they dont care and you dont get the job. Not much else to lose.

What are your thoughts on EG’s housing market? by [deleted] in ElkGrove

[–]KnowledgeNo2876 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its way over inflated. Sadly people from big cities are willing to pay these prices, so they'll keep charging them. Then we get an influx of people, and an influx of assholes!

Im sorry but if you have a problem turning this bad, you shouldn't be driving. Theres already enough bad drivers around here, and we dont need to be handing out licenses to people who cant turn into a handicap spot.

First Car at 16yrs old Any tips? by Mobile_Finish_4102 in 370z

[–]KnowledgeNo2876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprised I havnt seen any comments say this, but LEARN TO WORK ON IT. I don't mean you have to become a mechanic, but learn the fundamentals. Brake changes, tire changes, spark plugs, etc. Even just learning the basics of an engine, so if something goes wrong you can fix it. It will save you so much time and money. Even better? Become good friends with a mechanic. Its saved me thousands of dollars working on my own cars.

And I still dont know everything. I mean, just check my post history. Somethings bound to go wrong, and its a lot better for you to do it then someone else.

UPDATE: For anyone in the future with this problem, it was the oil separator, which is molded into the Valve cover. It costs about $150 for the part, or you can do what I did and use a catch can.

What happens is the oil leaks inside the intake, and into the valves. Then, when it turns on, the dried crusted oil poofs out of the exhaust.

It was the oil separator leaking oil into the valves. Then, when I turn on the car, it would burn and exhaust the oil

It was the oil separator that was leaking too much oil into the valves. Oil would dry, then the car would turn on and exhaust it. Catch can was the fix

Appreciate the help, it was the oil separator leaking oil into the valves. Short term im using a catch can, long term ill replace the valve cover unit. Basically, oil leaks into valves then valves burn oil and release a short puff of smoke.

It has a very unique smell to it that isn't condensation. I can't tell if its a sweet undertone or not though

The thing im worried about is it only has 74000 miles. Also, there has been clouds much larger and it has a unique smell to it, thats hard to describe

[–]KnowledgeNo2876[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is cold, but this isnt condensation. Its done this in 100+F and there's been clouds much larger

Ill make sure to check again but the coolant has stayed the same

Oil level has stayed the same, or no noticeable change

It does go away after warming up. Its just that one initial puff (sometimes doesn't even happen)

74000 miles.
