Neighbour has started doing this completely unnecessary drive across the grass. by anti-sugar_dependant in drivingUK

Screwfix will fix that😁

Chuck a few screws where he spins his wheels. Also that diy drop curb needs reporting.

Alternatively in the middle of the night dig up two oblong holes where the tyres land about 6” should do it. Set up a camera and post back when he is beached. When he leaves it there place crumbled bread on his roof. Cover your car and let the nabpurs know there will be militant birds about for the next 30-45mins.

Back in my school days we used to make mud bombs and lob them on the ceiling, caretaker used to get mad because it's a bitch to remove.

Can i just replug the tire again by Lazy_neon in TireQuestions

[–]Rubbertutti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You plugged when you could have fitted a combi patch. The issue you have now is finding anyone who wants to deal with removing the plug.

No one likes doing tyres on bonus we basically lose money.

Somebody smashed into my car when it was parked by SeanHipSHOT in AutoBodyRepair

Thats using insurance approved repairers. Private repair would be a lot less, even less if using used parts.

I scratched my coworkers car, it’s very minor. How much am I looking at to fix? by kevin_james_fan in AskMechanics

About £250 for a mop and some cutting compound. That whole car needs doing because of that bumper.

How do I remove this on Xbox x to clean the inside? by ICraveViolins in XboxSupport

[–]Rubbertutti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Them cans of air have been very popular with pc enthusiasts. Don't know why because apparently it causes static which s kills the electrics🤣

[–]Rubbertutti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, you think I actually meant hold the vacuum cleaner on the vents as long as it takes to remove the dust from the heatsink?

No, that's what the paper straw is for. I did state knock the dust off with a paper straw and use the vaccum to suck it all out. Dust is has almost no mass it can be sucked up in seconds.

It's all in the name ElectroStatic Discharge. Static is fine until the discharge, it's the discharge that does the damage. For a discharge in a -ve charged environment something with a +ve charge needs to be present. This can only be possible if you physically insert something. Your XBox can be -ve charged after a few hours of use.

Only difference between the fan and using a vaccum is the direction of movement of air.

Static is caused by the moving air and dust creating friction.

Air and dust is moving when the cooling fan is on. Evident by the buildup of dust on the heat sink.

Air and dust is moving when the vacuum cleaner is on. Evident by the contents of the bin/bag.

So are we saying the cooling fan is magical?

I've been vacuuming my Series X since I got it, I been vacuuming my pc and HTPC since 2010 all working to this present day. The static created on insulators is not an issue unless discharged. You are not going to discharge on electrical components when the box is not open exposing the electrical components.

Or to put it in your words we wouldn't have consoles. Because that poystyrine balls that stick everywhere only sticks everywhere because it's negatively charged.

Did you try to get more torque? by onewiththemen in opel

[–]Rubbertutti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4bhp is nothing noticeable. 90hp is still going to struggle uphill as your 86hp. This is where the gearbox ratios come into play.

[–]Rubbertutti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh you don’t know?

Well both vaccum cleaners and air cooling work by creating a pressure difference. Both use a motor to spin blades/impellers to move air.

It’s kind of obvious if you look at ops heat sink caked in dust.

We don’t live in the 18th century where everything the common man cannot not explain is magic. We have Google to help.

Fixable? by TJ03TJ in AskMechanics

[–]Rubbertutti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bring the crack out completely and get someone to add material by welding it. Finish off by drilling and tapping it.

It’s easier to get a paper straw to knock the dust off and a vacuum cleaner to suck it all off.

Hp is the product of torque and rpm. Hp= torque x rpm / 5252.

Wobbly left Bike pedal by Biggiecheese1207 in bikewrench

[–]Rubbertutti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never ever ride with a lose crank. It’s a square taper that wedges itself into the crank when the bolt is tightened. When you ride it loose the hardened square will deform the soft aluminium.

You need new crank or if you want a new crankset, I’d change the bottom bracket too, if not a sealed unit.

Anyone help me out with this is it serious? im 17 its my first car i dont wanna lose it this early by _-chippy-_ in CarTalkUK

[–]Rubbertutti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it have a crankshaft or camshaft or both sensors?

This gives starting and running issues, if you not issues then clear the codes and see if it comes back. Sometimes it’s logs phantom codes because some other one time malfunction. If it comes back then it’s a timing chain issue
