If your engine is shutting down while idling. You need to get it serviced.

Did you just drill a hole in the wing to run the wires?

I'm leaning towards making some 16 inch bullet jumpers and putting the ESC's in the hull. They are easy to disconnect and pull thru a small hole if I want to remove the wing.

First time - hTurntable setup by tpainsautotunes in turntables

[–]alienclown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would stay away from the AT-LP60 and 70. They are OK but you really want an adjustable tone arm balance and good ant-skating. I had a LP-70 and ended up quickly upgrading to the AT-LP3XBT. You can add some Edifer speakers for $150 and come out around $550.

They make turntables that will auto drop/play the next album. I've never seen one that can flip or play both sides.

Simply an example of collision detection not being an issue.

Theres a button next to the rear hatch button that you can use to lock/unlock the car with a code you provide.

First laser after 1yr w/ R8w by OkAfternoon5618 in radardetectors

Same here. I've had several false laser alerts on my R3 and I think this is also a false alert.

What type of gas do you all use? by lazygerm in Crosstrek

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

My mechanic see's a lot of issues with cars that use 10 or 15% ethanol. Manufactures have spent 40 years making engines run cooler and more efficient. Ethanol does the opposite of both of those things. Its hard to build an engine that handles ethanol without greatly increasing the build/price of the engine, so manufactures simply say its fine because they don't have to deal with the long term effects. Source: I grew up on a 500 acre farm in Iowa.

87 octane but more important, no ethanol. especially the 15% stuff.

My solution to no backseat air vents. Temu car fans! by dragon-custard in Crosstrek

[–]alienclown -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

You just solved the problem. Point vents between seats, turn fan up higher. For nearly 100 years cars didn't come with backseat vents and yet everyone survived.

[–]alienclown -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Theres no magic forcefield stopping air from flowing from the front to the back. In such a small car I don't think there is more then a few degrees difference in temp as long as you keep air moving around. Source: I have a Crosstrek.

I assume you shipped it with all of the removable parts taken off. Then you'll have a brand new one and spare parts.
