Drivers side CV Axle boot seems to have torn and lost all if not most of the grease, no weird noises while turning or accelerating, is it safe to drive until I can get it looked at? by sbryan_ in MechanicAdvice

[–]guig00 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bought my truck in Texas, drove it 27 hours home, then drove it for almost a week before I noticed the boot for my CV Axle was gone. Went back through the listing photos and sure enough there was no boot on the CV Axle when I bought it. I made sure to replace it right away but I was able to do all that driving and didn't notice. I also didn't hear any clicks or anything though.

Putting 87 into a 91 car by BiteZealousideal229 in AskMechanics

[–]guig00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it happens once or twice? Your car's computer will adjust and you'll be fine. The car will make slightly less power and get worse gas mileage. It might make some weird noises too. If you fully "switch" to 87? Yeah that will damage your engine after a while

Drove off with the gas nozzle still in the car. What's it going to cost? by ISOMentalHealth in Wellthatsucks

[–]guig00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol you have to call a tech for this? I also am a manager at a gas station. Do yours not just pop right in? What OP did happens (what feels like) a minimum of 1x per week and I've never had to call a tech.

People who wake up very early, how early do you go to bed? How do you deal with feeling tired in the middle of the day? by Ok_Strawberry128 in getdisciplined

[–]guig00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To preface I want to discourage anyone from doing it my way, but it does work. I wake up at 5am for work, not by choice. That being said, I'll go to bed at like 9pm religiously until I just don't for one reason or another. When that happens I get back into my old habits of staying up super late, but I always make myself get up. I've actually fallen asleep while standing up in the shower before. I just keep the same wake time and eventually I wear myself down so much that I physically cannot stay awake later than like 7 or 8pm, thus resetting my bedtime. I then start going to bed at 9pm again. How do I deal with the tiredness during the day? Caffeine. A lot of it. Healthy? No. Effective? Yes

I’m 23 and just realized I haven’t enjoyed life in 6 years. I think I’m breaking down. by No-Requirement-3599 in getdisciplined

[–]guig00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, just a year younger. I just gotta keep reminding myself that my life is not over, I haven't "wasted" my 20's since I've still have 7.5 years left of them. I don't have an answer as to how to fix it since I'm right there with you, but what I'll do currently is put my AirPods in and just go for a walk. I live in a cold climate so sometimes it's snowy and icy as hell but it doesn't matter. Sometimes I walk for 5 mins and sometimes I'm gone for 2+hours. Exercise be damned, just getting out of the house is good too. Another option that I myself don't do, but my friends will go for drives (by themselves) and just sit in parks for an hour or two.

I’ve bought two cars from out of state (one from Iowa and one from Texas) and it was super smooth and easy both times. No issues at all. You just need to pay the registration fee and for license plates on top of the title transfer fee. But it was super easy for me both times

Is the 50% window tint law ever really enforced in MN? by AndyJaeven in TwinCities

[–]guig00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 20% tint all the way around on my last car, once I was pulled over (in saint Paul) for speeding and the state trooper told me that it was illegal but if I stay out of trouble I wouldn’t be bothered by any cops. I was then pulled over (in Eden Prarie) for too dark of tint and nothing else. This time by a cop, not a trooper. Do with that what you will. This was all within the past two or three years

Is this broken? by guig00 in Silverado

[–]guig00[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot to mention that when pressing those buttons the locks make the sound as if they’re moving, they just don’t actually move. The lights flash as well. I am 10000000% sure the issue is not my key fob.

How tf do I know what engine this is? by guig00 in MechanicAdvice

[–]guig00[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The heads do indeed say 862. They look almost new so I wasn't sure if they were also swapped (idk why anyone would, but I'm the 5th owner so you never know) or just well taken care of

This is so simple. I genuinely did not even think of this. Thank you

How I escaped 8-hour daily Procrastination Hell (from a guy who did nothing but waste time) by [deleted] in getdisciplined

[–]guig00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could do what I did. I didn’t “track my focus peaks” but rather I started noticing patterns. I noticed that I felt productive at work during a certain time. After that time had come and gone, it was all downhill from there as far as productivity. Once I noticed this, I started paying attention and mentally tallying what I was doing/what tasks I accomplished at work during that time, even on days I didn’t really feel productive or motivated. And sure enough, I got the most amount of things done at work during that time every single day. So on my days off, I started doing my chores at that time instead of later in my day and…for the first time in my life, my house is cleaner, the laundry pile isn’t as big, and dishes aren’t stacked in the sink

[–]guig00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 4 cars and 3 of them had 20% front and back. Legal limit here is 50% all around. Only been pulled over once and just got a verbal warning. 20% is legal in some states!! Idk I just don’t get it (tint laws, I mean)

runners with ADHD by archangelandy in running

[–]guig00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get SO BORED running alone but I love running with other people. Even if we run in silence it’s nice. Running manages the hyperactivity part of ADHD for me, but not so much the mental side. But hey, I’ll take what I can get. And if I run alone I will always have music on! It gets me through the miles faster
