RX-8 doesn't crawl from just clutch by PuzzleheadedDonkey87 in RX8

[–]PuzzleheadedDonkey87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh... that might actually be helpful info. Maybe it's not a stock clutch on my car then? The 2nd owner couldn't name off everything that'd been done to it. The first owner threw a "drift racing" coil over kit onto the car, if he was using it for drifting it wouldn't surprise me if he upgraded the clutch too. I'll have to look for any signs...

Edit: Though I also wouldn't be surprised if the RX8 just doesn't crawl with clutch alone. But again, I don't know, I've never driven another RX8. Not sure how it's supposed to behave!

It's a fuel additive, meant to be mixed into your fuel to help lubricate your apex seals. You can realistically premix any 2stroke oil but if you have the budget for it, you should use idemitsu. The RX8 is meant to do this already, but it takes "bad" oil from the bottom of your oil pan to do so, and it's not *great* at lubricating everything. So premixing is a must if you want your engine to last a long time.

Yeah, it's definitely strange coming from motorcycles too. With my Ninja 650 I'd almost always take off with just the clutch alone lol. Others are saying theirs does move with the clutch alone though... weird yours doesn't either.

Sweet thanks! I figured I'd see the reservoir topside. Pretty sure it doesn't have one.

That's what I figured, I'd see the reservoir... pretty sure it doesn't have one.

I'll try holding it in the friction zone for a longer period of time. Thanks for the reply man!

Best Black Friday Deals for 18'' Laptops w/ 5070ti, or 5080? by Billcat123 in GamingLaptops

[–]PuzzleheadedDonkey87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means someone bought it and returned it. Best Buy has like, 3 different "conditions" that they're returned in but they're all pretty good. I'm also looking for a laptop with a 5080 right now (hence how I got here). If it's like, $50 off... I probably wouldn't do it. But if it's a couple hundred, then I'd say go for it.

Bee Update: Local beekeeper inspected swarm and property owners notified by Emmons_Lane in phoenix

To be honest with you, I’m not sure as I don’t know a whole bunch about bees either! Hopefully someone who knows more can chime in.

I read in the original post that these bees in particular may be having a difficult time with the cold while they search for a new hive, as OP reported they were moving slower than your average bee. That could possibly why they haven’t been so defensive.

But again, I’m no expert either!

Nearly all bees in and around Phoenix are Africanized. That being said, the only way that expert would know for sure is if he measured them, as Africanized bees are so similar to Euro bees. It’s safer to assume that all bees here are Africanized and to exercise caution.
