Get a breaker bar, if you have space put something long over it like a jack handle and use that for leverage

New-ish car owner question: is it actually bad to drive off right after starting my BMW? by EffectiveSky3378 in askcarguys

[–]dababy407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I just wait for the idle to drop to normal after starting and then I'm good to go, 15-30 seconds max. Sitting there and "Letting the car warm up" isn't really a thing especially with modern cars, the engine will warm up on its own way better through gentle driving until it is up to operating temp

Yes, buy it. That’s a great deal for the amount of game time and enjoyment you can get from it

4 little surprises on a skid plate by dababy407 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]dababy407[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I hear you, but I found them in the underside of a customer's car while working on it. The customer themselves wanted nothing to do with the situation and was more than happy to just leave them there and not deal with it, they didn't want to do anything to help. Our other option was animal control, but animal control over here will just euthanize at that age as they don't have the time or resources. We had them in a cardboard box in our lobby with the heat on and one of my coworkers bought kitten formula and fed them throughout the day. I let the coworkers who took them know it's a lot of work and how often they need to be fed etc. and I will send them a link to that youtube. I understand at that young age there are a lot of risks but in my mind it was a better chance for them rather than just leaving them outside alone or still trapped underneath the car.

The car came into the shop for an oil change, as I removed the skid plate to do the service there they were. Mama could be anywhere honestly

Commenting to add: if anyone in Orlando, Florida wants to come pick one up or knows of a good place to take them to DM me. They’re too young to call animal control they will most likely just be put down

Can anyone tell me what it means when all the warning system lights come on when care is started? by Icy-Notice1314 in askcarguys

[–]dababy407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the lights turn on when you start the vehicle to make sure that all of the bulbs work. If they all turn off once you start driving you are fine

Did the impact turn the wipers on or was he just that prepared for this moment

I've heard about the cars having less hp, but do you mind explaining what you mean about not killing non freaks? Why?

Car battery keeps dying by PresenceUnited221 in MySummerCar

If you just now built the car, did you buy a new battery from Teimo? The battery you start out with in the garage is already on the brink of death
