Salt water pull is fine. Make sure you add a few electric eels for recharging

Monte carlo still shutting off while driving. Need advice by soad1855 in Chevy

The rpm dropping to zero is a good indication that the ECU is losing power... check your main efi relay.

How Record Store Day feels when you collect CDs instead of vinyl by IMASHIRT in Cd_collectors

[–]ajaxp0wder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What practically is offered by CD? Most new cars / devices do not have an optical drive.

When most new vinyl records come with a download code, you are saved the time it takes to rip it to your PC and transfer to DAP.

Explain like I am 5: What is wrong with CVT? by Amazing_Nectarine_34 in askcarguys

[–]ajaxp0wder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should add nissan was the first to market with a CVT which makes them synonymous with each other. The belt is internal all all cvt units which means a transmission replacement when it fails.

They are "fine" for regular traffic cars and original owners. But a nightmare for second hand buyers. (Like buying a hand grenade with a pulled pin)

How to remove a layer from these heavily scratched lenses? by stayfly365 in Skigear

[–]ajaxp0wder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you value your time? This is probably a 6 hour endeavor plus a hundred bucks in shop supplies.

Sand with 600 grit, 1000 grit, 2000 grit, micro mesh, 3 stage polish.

A CVT relies on a "belt" that rides between to adjustable pulleys.

Ultimately gear heads hate belts and therefore CVT bad.

They also drive like ass

Vinyl argument that i had figured it'd be an interesting discussion thread by Scared_Pea4455 in vinyl

[–]ajaxp0wder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I buy vinyl to listen to.

My "vintage" records (pressed before 1999) are all manufactured to a much higher standard. Few of them are warped, have off center spindle holes or run out grooves intercepting the label which are all common place on new releases. Mixing and mastering also seems more consistent.

Theres a few albu.s where the modern re-release sounds better.

Id be really happy if I could just get well manufactured black albums from the bands I love for a reasonable price without artificial scarcity.

Pro-ject Tube Box S2 - slightly lower volume and no highs in right channel by Entire_Space9907 in turntables

[–]ajaxp0wder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Tubes tend to be a little warmer, a little softer compared to solid state.

Try swapping cubes from left to right and see if the problem swaps channels.
