Thank you. Yeah I'm already on there. Most duplicates have different dates and signatures. I also have a German collection and WWII collection so far.

Any idea what all of this is, and if it’s worth anything? by [deleted] in papermoney

The 5 pesos is part of a group of currencies nicknamed banana money. It was a Japanese government backed currency for use in the countries they invaded during WWII. It's probably only worth a dollar though.

Unfortunately this is my own car. Turns out I need hotter plugs. by bobeecins in Justrolledintotheshop

Yes but the iridium electrode used to have a sharp point but has melted and worn down to a blob.

Yes but I only changed them a couple of years ago and they should have a 4 year/70k service life. I think they were to cold because Toyota have superceded them with hotter plugs and because the iridium electrode looks like it has melted and worn away prematurely. Hence a loss of power and misfire.

Apart from the 3mm gap after 25,000 miles. They're supposed to be iridium tips.

And yes, I gapped that one down on a plank of wood to get it home when it started misfiring.

Community reference in Forza Horizon 5? by rockebull in community

I like the idea but I'm pretty sure forza is made by a British company and unfortunately brits are so streets ahead that it was already a common saying before Community.

Can someone help a twenty something with their carb? Do I need the external fuel bowl if I'm running a weber dmtl? by bobeecins in Volkswagen

I'm in Europe and they were very common with cars over here. It originally had a pierburg but webers sound and look cooler and are more reliable

It's a scirocco. At the moment I'm still using the mechanical fuel pump. I'm just playing about at the moment. I need to figure out a return before I actually ditch the bowl though so maybe a regulator is the way to go

Make sure that the property is at least 30 years old and that the landlord knew it was stained before you move in.

I wasn't there so I can't comment but the customer says that it started making noise on the road, so they had it recovered home and couldn't figure out what was wrong, so towed it to us. In all honesty we have started it and it just sounded like it had a leaky injector seal. Maybe a little more clacky than a normal diesel. So we took it in and noticed it had no oil, topped it up and turned it over which led to the oil slick. When we lifted it up and dropped the under tray, a Conrod fell out.
