fuel efficiency

Starlet Turbo questioned:

I am not into racing any longer. I just want better fuel efficiency (each drop of fuel converted to potential) not automatically fuel state (scrimping on fuel). I just am not sure whether or not the combination of nology hot wires and msd 6al will be a excellent combination for my day after day driver compelling into account that nology has a capacitor while msd distributes max flash all the time. Won’t this be unenthusiastic to the car’s normal or wreck the capacitor of nology?

Fedup Veteran questioned:

It seems that the “Hybrid” cars are perilous if they get into an accident in view of the fact that of the high electricity which flows owing to them. This earnings that EMTs and fire fighters need to ground the vehicle before charitable ANY kind of aid.

http://www.defrance.org/artman/publish/article_1426.shtml

Are they required to have public sign a proclamation clearing them of liability, if the self gets into an accident?
In view of the fact that Fixed cars don’t electrocute the EMT worker tiresome to get the self OUT of the business.

A couple weeks ago I saw an accident with a hybrid car and they made him handbook it to a parking lot where here were NO cars around. If the guy was severely hurt he would have been toast.
You can SEE a fire…you can’t see if a hybrid is hot, nor do you know if the car is twisted off or not.

CJ questioned:

It is not de rigueur that a head’s engine hot background be hotter than ambient like. Liquid nitrogen (77 K) is about as low-cost as bottled fill up. What would be the efficiency of an engine that made use of heat transferred at room like (293 K) to the liquid nitrogen “fuel”?

Frickheadbird questioned:

Just bought a 2007 HCH II a month ago – 1800 kms so far and I’m being paid engine, battery, and IMA failure illumination on on the dash. The IMA logic shuts down completely when this happens. The car subdue runs on the gas engine, but is very sluggish. Happens frequently on hot re-starts (stop for a fleeting time, then re-start the car). Has also happened on the highway. I’ve read about four additional cases of this in the US, but all were 2006 models – I subdue place of protection’t heard of any pledge besides replacing the vehicle. My car subdue hasn’t been check out by a dealer, as the soonest appointment they may maybe give me is one week away. Just tiresome to figure out if this is inane to be as huge of a problem as it was with the ones in the U.S..

Cheers,
