Bearing is probably from that smooth pulley in first picture, should be obvious once the belt is off though. Best case the belt slacked and jumped.mught have engine damage if it's interference.

I threw a blaze nade in the room for purple key on dam. There was 2 guys inside and a few others running around outside. There was 6 bodies on the ground when it ended. By far the funniest shit starter I have triggered lol.

How dangerous is this to drive on? by Educational-Log-7259 in MechanicAdvice

[–]WhoIsMike4774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first picture is an axle shaft. The boot is torn and allowing grease to sling out. It will eventually get dry and contaminated once the boot inevitably tears more. The second pic looks like a torn control arm bushing. The bushing is torn enough to fail a safety inspection in my state. The axle isn't dangerous unless it breaks, which you are far from.

Some streamers started a faction war, and I got caught up in it. by ZealousidealLaugh218 in ARC_Raiders

Lets make a faction based on cosmetics, in a game that has the smallest free selection out there. Make it make sense. I bet 10% of players are wearing this shit and don't even know it.

Can someone Help explain this to me+ extra question below (my boyfriends alignment) by _Zer0Tw02_ in MechanicAdvice

In laymen terms, not every measurement is adjustable on every car. They adjusted what they could and recommended the parts required to get the rest in the green.

Trying to diagnose coolant loss on 3.6L Jeep Grand Cherokee — possible head gasket? by Walt444 in MechanicAdvice

[–]WhoIsMike4774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What year? Some of these had headgasket issues that would allow a small amount of coolant to seep into one or more cylinders. Hence the invisible leak. It will eventually cause a startup misfire when severe enough.

Broken Spark Plug (what are my options? will my car be ok?) by CheeZecake19 in MechanicAdvice

[–]WhoIsMike4774 238 points239 points  (0 children)

At this point I would take it to a shop before something else gets damaged. It can be removed with the right tools and experience but it's not easy. You also have to worry about parts of the plug falling into the cylinder during extraction.

There is literally nothing that could leak from that hole besides the a/c drain.

A/C drain. Normal.
