🚨 THIS MAN WARNS: STOP WARMING UP YOUR CAR - YOU’RE ACTUALLY CAUSING ENGINE DAMAGE A mechanic says idling your car for 5–10 minutes like it’s 1995 is doing the opposite of what you think. Modern engines don’t need it. "Most cold-start engine wear happens because excess fuel washes...

This is completely false. Modern, computer- controlled engines, even back to the 90’s, only run a slightly rich mixture for about 15 seconds or so. Having warm oil, fully shaped pistons and proper warm clearances will result in less engine wear when you actually accelerate.

If oil is getting washed off your cylinder walls by fuel you have bigger problems in that your piston rings are shot.

This guy is a tard who doesn’t understand how temperatures work. Nobody starts the car and waits “for the engine to warm up” It’s, so the heater warms up you fat dummy. Also, all his moronic claims are debunked with regular oil changes.

You can test this yourself. Pull your valve covers off and start the car on a sub temp day. Watch how long it takes for oil to travel. It takes a bit. You can drive your car like that but its not lubricated like it would be if you warmed it up for 5 to 10 minutes.

With zero weight oil I want a minute or so warm up time to get the "worms" doing their thing to thicken the oil just a bit.

A lot of this information is incorrect. Not to mention it’s good for your transmission…A vehicle’s transmission, particularly an automatic one, “warms up” primarily through the heating of its automatic transmission fluid (ATF). This fluid serves multiple roles: lubricating moving parts, cooling the system, and enabling hydraulic functions like gear shifting. When cold, ATF becomes thicker and more viscous, which can lead to sluggish performance, increased wear, or inefficient operation. Warming it up reduces viscosity to an optimal level for smooth functioning. The process is gradual and relies on heat generated from the engine and transmission itself.

Why is gas washing off the oil inside your pistons? They should not be mixing. That means your rings are no good and your engine is toast

Not really you need to warm it up a little bit to get the oil and everything flowing. Just don’t turn the heaters on till after 10 minutes.

While the fuel is coming in at a richer mixture for warmup efficiency, think oil is being moved right back into the cylinder. Not warm thin oil, thick sticky stuff until it warms up. The fuel is going to have a hard time washing that off.

Most people overpay for oil changes on their Ford Taurus because they don’t realize how straightforward the job actually is — if you know the few details that matter. This short clip shows the basic process. Here’s the substance most people miss: • Use the correct oil. Most 3.5L Taurus engines (especially 2010–2019) call for 5W-20. Using the wrong viscosity is one of the most common DIY mistakes. • Capacity is typically 5.5–6 quarts with a filter change. Always confirm with your specific year/engine in the owner’s manual. • The oil filter on these cars can be awkward to reach. A proper filter wrench or strap tool is worth it — forcing it often damages the housing or leaves the old gasket stuck, which causes leaks later. • Drain plug torque matters. Over-tightening strips the pan threads; under-tightening leads to drips. Clean the sealing surface and use a new crush washer when possible. • After refilling, run the engine for a minute, shut it off, wait a few minutes, then recheck the dipstick. Top off only if needed. Then reset the oil life monitor so the system tracks accurately. Doing this yourself every 5,000–7,500 miles (or when the monitor says so) is one of the highest-ROI maintenance jobs you can perform. It keeps the engine cleaner, reduces long-term wear, and saves real money over the life of the car. If you own a Taurus and have been putting this off, this is a solid reference. Just work clean, use the right oil, and don’t rush the filter. What’s your current mileage and when was the last oil change?

Following the Delta A330-323(N813NW) engine failure after departure from São Paulo (GRU), many are asking: what actually happens if an airliner loses an engine just after takeoff? As passenger in the cabin watching this scenario unfold, the panic is understandable. Seeing flames from an engine is alarming. But this is exactly the kind of scenario pilots are trained for repeatedly in simulators. Modern multi-engine aircraft are designed to fly safely on one engine. In fact, losing one engine is a certification requirement during testing. Here’s what happens: At liftoff, pilots target V2 speed—the minimum safe speed that guarantees the aircraft can continue climbing even with one engine inoperative. If an engine fails: • The MASTER FIRE warning light will illuminate in the cockpit and the fire warning bell will sound, alerting the pilots on the affected engine (they will close the fuel, hydraulic shutoff, and engine bleed air valves, and also discharge the related fire bottle to extinguish the engine fire). Of course, they will be careful NOT TO shut down the wrong engine (this has happened before). • Maximum thrust is applied on the remaining engine. • Rudder input keeps the aircraft straight (countering asymmetric thrust) • The aircraft climbs straight ahead for best performance (turns reduce climb rate unless required) Once above a safe altitude (typically ~1,500 ft / Minimum Flap Retraction Altitude(MFRA): • The aircraft accelerates • Flaps are retracted (“cleaning up”) • Crew assesses the situation and plans a return or diversion Even at very low altitude, the aircraft remains controllable by design. It may not climb aggressively, but it will climb. Bottom line: What looks catastrophic from the cabin is a scenario pilots are highly trained to handle—and aircraft are engineered to withstand. Hope this helps any nervous flyer. Flying is safe, and the chances of this happening have reduced due to lessons learned from previous incidents. And if you ever find yourself in this situation, trust that the pilots will act according to their training—because that’s their job.

🧬 Why does ☣️ Pleb Kruse = BTC foundationalist in exile 🟩🔆 say “Food doesn’t matter”? Imagine a solar-powered battery: Sunlight charges the battery. Water holds the charge. Magnetism organizes the charge. The battery powers the engine. The engine burns the fuel. Food is a fuel. If the battery is empty or the wiring is broken, the engine cannot burn the fuel correctly. Changing the fuel will not fix the battery. Fix the battery first, then any fuel can be used. 🤔 Understanding 🔥 1. The ENGINE comes before the FUEL If the mitochondrial engine is not working, the fuel doesn’t matter. Why? Because in our modern world, we are trying to fix a physics problem with food ideology. It will never work. Mitochondria are the engine that burns the fuel. If the engine is damaged, all fuels become incomplete, misinterpreted, or even toxic. 👎🏻Most people today have engines damaged by: blue light EMFs indoor living poor redox lack of DHA no morning sunlight circadian mismatch ❌When the engine is broken, these things happen: electrons cannot move efficiently ATP production slows inflammation rises ROS becomes uncontrolled hormones lose coherence fasting becomes stressful diets fail again and again Food does not fix any of this. ☀️ 2. LIGHT controls metabolism more deeply than any diet ever could Jack’s central point for 15 years: “Food is seasonal information. Light is the master instruction.” Morning sunlight programs: dopamine cortisol melatonin leptin mitochondrial timing thyroid signaling This means two people on the same diet can have completely different results depending on their light environment. Example: Someone living indoors under LEDs with low redox tries carnivore. They struggle. Someone living by the ocean with daily sunrise exposure builds strong redox. Carnivore works for them Keto works Carbs work seasonally Fasting works The diet didn’t change. The redox did. Diet is just light in disguise. 🌊 3. Mitochondria run on ELECTRONS, not on food quantity Jack always says: “You don’t need more supplements. You need more electrons.” Food is only an electron donor. But electrons only work when the biology is prepared to receive them in the same environment nature designed. The key factors that prepare the system are: DHA in cell membranes structured water created by sunlight a magnetic field that aligns proton flow circadian signals that control timing cold exposure that increases electron efficiency minimal blue light at night When these conditions are damaged: Electrons get stuck. Energy drops. Inflammation rises. Hormones lose rhythm. Detoxification breaks. Again: diet never fixes the foundation. 🧠 4. Why diet “gurus” are always fighting, and always missing the point. Carnivore gurus… Low-carb communities… Metabolic bros… Vegan influencers… Mediterranean… All of them fight about the fuel while ignoring the engine. It’s like watching the mechanics scream about gasoline quality while the engine has: no oil no spark plugs a dead battery Jack’s message is brutally simple: “Fix the mitochondrial environment first, and most diets will begin to work.” Without fixing the environment, no diet can save you. 🐟 5. Why DHA is the diet Kruse actually cares about. DHA is the molecule that lets sunlight become a direct electrical current inside your cell membranes. DHA is the antenna. If the antenna is broken, the light signal becomes distorted. Every metabolic pathway fails. This is why: “A vegan in Norway is committing mitochondrial suicide.” “Food is a distraction. Sunlight is the real nutrient.” DHA + sunlight is the diet nature designed for humans. DHA is an antenna. And an antenna is useless without the signal. 🔥 Remember Your mitochondrial redox decides your fate; not your diet. Your light environment writes the rules for your metabolism. Your DHA status determines how well you can read the rules. This is why all food fights are meaningless 🤭 The mitochondria decide everything long before the fork ever reaches your mouth.

Glimpse into the world of an oil change done with ease by a pro. ​Ever wonder what a flawless, textbook oil change looks like when performed by a pro? We broke it down step-by-step to show you the precision, care, and cleanliness required for a job done right. ​Step 1: The Drain & Prep ​First things first: getting that old oil out. The mechanic lifts the vehicle, locates the drain plug, and carefully loosens it. Bringing over the oil catchment system ensures no mess. The plug is removed, allowing the dirty oil to drain out completely. ​Step 2: The Filter Swap (The Clean Way) ​Changing the oil filter can get messy—but not on our watch. The mechanic uses a clever, moldable green deflector tool to create a funnel underneath the filter. As the old filter is unscrewed, the excess oil catches and flows perfectly into the basin without touching the car's frame. Once drained, the old filter is removed, the mating surface is wiped clean with a fresh rag, and a brand-new blue filter is prepped and securely hand-tightened into place. ​Step 3: Resealing & Torquing ​Before anything else, the drain plug needs to go back in. The mechanic cleans the area, threads the plug by hand, and then uses a precision torque wrench to tighten the lugs on the wheels to exact factory specifications. No overtightening, no stripped threads—just perfect calibration. ​ Step 4: The Fresh Refill ​With the underside completely sealed, the car is lowered. A clean funnel is placed into the engine bay, and fresh, golden oil is metered out and poured in. The oil cap is twisted back on securely. ​ Step 5: Verification ​A quick turn of the ignition to let the new oil circulate through the engine, followed by a dipstick check. The mechanic pulls the dipstick, wipes it clean, inserts it again, and reads the level to confirm it is exactly where it needs to be. ​Step 6: The Showroom Finish ​We don’t just stop at the mechanical work. To wrap it all up perfectly, the engine bay gets a thorough pressure wash and detail, blowing away any dust or road grime. The hood is shut, and this Honda is officially ready to hit the road for thousands of trouble-free miles. ​Efficiency. Precision. Cleanliness. That’s how a job is done perfectly.

Shell in the Spotlight Again as More Motorists Blame Contaminated Fuel Sold at Their Stations for Engine Damage Fuel service stations operated under the Shell brand, which is managed by Vivo Energy Kenya, are once again on the spot after another frustrated motorist blamed poor-quality fuel for allegedly damaging his car engine. The incident reportedly happened just moments after the driver refueled at Shell Links Road in Mombasa when the vehicle began losing power on the way to Voi. Despite pushing forward, the problem worsened, and the car eventually stalled a few kilometres before Kitui, forcing the motorist to seek emergency mechanical assistance. A mechanic from Kitui ran a diagnostic test and found severe engine damage, including a completely worn-out piston, citing contaminated fuel as the likely cause of the problem. With no alternative, the motorist had the vehicle towed back to Mombasa and reported the matter to Vivo Energy Kenya. A representative from the company requested a fuel sample for testing at their laboratory. On Tuesday, they informed her that the sample had passed all tests. The motorist, dissatisfied with Vivo Energy’s response, instructed his mechanic to conduct a more thorough inspection of the engine to determine the extent of the damage. Upon dismantling the engine, the mechanic once again confirmed that one piston was completely worn out, an issue he attributed to contaminated fuel. According to the mechanic, the level of damage was consistent with prolonged exposure to poor-quality fuel, suggesting that the problem began soon after refueling. The motorist, convinced that bad fuel was responsible, claims to have gathered video evidence showing the fuel sample in a mixed and compromised state. She insists that the sample, which was taken directly from her vehicle, appeared discoloured and inconsistent with what is expected of high-grade V-Power petrol. Despite presenting this evidence, Vivo Energy reportedly maintained that their tests found no issues with the fuel. The motorist is now escalating the matter, determined to hold Vivo Energy accountable for the damage. She has shared video evidence, showing the contaminated fuel and is calling for independent testing to verify its quality. Frustrated by what she sees as the company’s unwillingness to take responsibility, she is considering legal action and has reached out to consumer rights groups for support. This case adds to growing complaints from Kenyan motorists about fuel quality, with recent independent tests exposing major discrepancies in octane levels at several stations. An automotive content creator Kim JH of Tanuki Garage recently went around Nairobi, purchasing fuel samples from different stations and conducting on-the-spot octane tests. The findings revealed that some premium fuels, including Shell V-Power, underperformed compared to standard fuels. For instance, Total Limuru Road recorded the highest performance with a PON of 92, while Shell V-Power scored lower, challenging the common perception of premium fuel superiority. His findings, shared widely on social media, sparked outrage, with motorists demanding accountability from fuel retailers. Following the viral exposé, oil marketers, including Vivo Energy rushed to dismiss the findings, arguing that independent tests lacked credibility and did not follow industry-approved procedures. Shell Kenya, through Vivo Energy, insisted that its fuel met regulatory standards, pointing to tests conducted by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA). However, the issue has refused to die down as more motorists continue to report unusual engine problems after refueling from previously reputable stations. Meanwhile, consumer advocacy groups have joined the debate, urging EPRA to conduct random and independent fuel quality tests at petrol stations across the country. They argue that the current reliance on oil marketers’ internal tests is inadequate and fails to protect motorists from potentially damaging fuel. The controversy has also drawn the attention of lawmakers, with some calling for stricter oversight and stiffer penalties for companies found selling substandard fuel. For motorists like the one affected at Shell Links Road, the issue is not just about technical standards but about accountability and compensation for the damage suffered. "Hi Nyakundi. I am Here to seek your intervention I fueled at shell links road ,vpower on Saturday, by the time I reached voi my car lost power I kept going but got worse as I moved. A few kms before kitui,the car stalled...I called a mechanic from kitui who came with a diagnosis machine and from what he said,I had put bad fuel. I towed the car back to msa. I reported to vivo. A guy from vivo by the name Brian mbaabu called and asked me to take the fuel for tests in their lab. He then called yesterday, on Tues and said that the sample passed all tests.... I asked my mechanic to open up the engine and to our surprise one piston is totally worn out an indication of bad fuel I will attach all I have including videos as I got the sample and it's all mixed up"

The fuel collapse in russia is now so complete that their refineries are deliberately dumping Euro-2 and Euro-3 gasoline on the domestic market. For anyone who missed chemistry class, that means sulfur content 15 to 50 times higher than the Euro-5 standard every modern engine is built for. This is not an accident. It is a conscious choice by russian companies to poison their own car fleet rather than admit the sanctions and our strikes have broken their supply chain. Mechanics in moscovia are already posting about the sudden rush of blown engines, catalytic converters melted from the inside, fuel pumps shredded. The "grateful" reviews from ordinary drivers are about to flood their own internet, and every one of them should be screenshotted and sent back to the kremlin with a simple caption: this is what your imperial war looks like when it reaches your garage. This is the same regime that tells its people they are winning while feeding them literal poison to keep the tanks rolling. Every extra ton of this garbage fuel burned in russia is another small proof that their economy is cannibalizing itself to sustain losses on Ukrainian soil. They cannot import enough high-quality components, they cannot refine what they pump, and instead of fixing the problem they simply lower the standard and hope the cars explode quietly. Meanwhile Ukraine keeps grinding their logistics, hitting refineries, storage tanks, and rail hubs with increasing precision. By the end of 2026 our mid-range strike capability will be two to five times what it is now. Their operational-level supply lines will be burning faster than they can rebuild them. No amount of diluted gasoline or desperate mobilization waves changes that math. Throwing more bodies at the front only accelerates the body count; even their own z-bloggers admit it changes nothing except the speed at which russian mothers bury their sons. This is not sustainable for them. It is not a sign of strength. It is the slow-motion collapse of a petro-state that chose empire over functioning society. Every driver whose engine dies because of this toxic sludge should understand exactly who sacrificed his car for putin's ego. The war does not stop because someone in Washington or Brussels whispers the word "negotiations." It stops when moscovia is militarily defeated, when its ability to project power is broken, when the imperial project itself is dismantled into something that can no longer threaten its neighbors. We told you this would happen. The fuel collapse was predictable. The engine failures were predictable. The kremlin's willingness to poison its own population to keep the meat grinder fed was the most predictable part of all. Keep striking. Keep isolating their economy. Keep exposing every lie they sell to their own people. The bill always comes due, and this time it is arriving in the form of ruined engines and furious drivers who finally cannot drive away from the truth.

French beauty 1939 Delahaye Type 165 Cabriolet Coachwork by Figoni & Falaschi - Delahaye only built six 12-cylinder Type 165 models in the late 1930s, as production variants of the successful Type 145 competition car. This stunning Figoni et Falaschi-bodied cabriolet was built to represent France at the 1939 New York World’s Fair, an exposition promoted with the slogan “Dawn of a New Day”. While the engine was not completed in time for its display, the modernity and sublime beauty of this car’s flowing styling drew throngs of admirers from the press and public alike. Emile Delahaye was born in Tours, France in 1843. He studied engineering in Angers, France. In 1869 he began work with his engineering degree in applied arts and crafts. Emile Delahaye began business in Tours, France in the middle of 19th Century for the purpose of constructing engines for the ceramic industry. The company branched out and began constructing mechanical appliances such as pumps and engines. In 1888, Delahaye designed an internal combustion engine for the shipping industry. It was not until 1896 that Automobile production began for Delahaye. His first automobiles produced were powered by belt-driven single and twin cylinder engines. Emile used motor racing to promote his vehicles. In 1896, Emile Delahaye entered the Paris-Marseilles race. Not only did he enter a vehicle his company had created, but he entered as the driver. The results were astounding, which truly speaks highly of the caliber and quality of the automobile. The demand for the vehicles began pouring-in and a second factory was opened. After the racing success of its Type 145, Delahaye created the production version, the 12-cylinder Type 165. Two Type 165s were built, and the first was shown in October 1939 at the Paris Auto Salon, the last salon before the war. The second 165 – this cabriolet, with body by Figoni and Falaschi, was so emblematic of 1930s French design that it represented the nation at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Shipped without an engine because it could not be built in time for the show, an engine sheel, without internals was used instead. The engine-less body was impounded by US Customs when Europe became embroiled in WWII. With Europe engulfed by war by the World’s Fair’s close in 1940, the U.S. Custom’s impounded the Delahaye in New York for the duration of the conflicts. In 1946 Beverly Hills car dealer Roger Barlow purchased the car at public auction, and later that year the Type 165 was fitted with a tuned Cadillac engine. Following his death, it was abandoned by his widow in the 1970s and sold to a tow-truck driver for $1200. After three decades of trading hands at a public auction and receiving a Cadillac engine, it eventually wound up at a used car lot in Honolulu until it was bought by a US military serviceman. It took four years of negotiation, but Peter Mullin and Jim Hull eventually purchased the car in 1985 and spearheaded its restoration. The original engine sheel was tracked back to Count Hubertus von Doenhoff and bought. New engine internals were created from original drawings to finally give the 165 the fully-working engine it was intended to have. This car is now owned by Peter and Merle Mullin and the Peter Mullin Automotive Museum Foundation, where is its displayed in Oxnard, California. © Cars & Motorbikes Stars of the Golden Era #archaeohistories

🇬🇧 Lotus 102C Isuzu V12 Test In 1991, Team Lotus secretly tested an experimental V12 Formula One engine developed by Isuzu. This project, which remains a fascinating "what-if" in motorsport history, centered on the Isuzu P799WE engine. The Engine (P799WE): A 75-degree, naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V12 designed by a small, four-person team at Isuzu. It was impressively powerful, producing between 640 and 765 bhp depending on the stage of development, which was competitive with the top engines of the era. The Chassis (Lotus 102C): To test the engine, Lotus modified its 102B chassis to accommodate the V12, renaming the resulting car the Lotus 102C. The Test: The car underwent system checks at the Hethel test track in late July and early August 1991. The primary on-track evaluation took place at Silverstone in early August 1991, with drivers Johnny Herbert and Mika Häkkinen conducting the tests. Performance: During the Silverstone test, the car was reportedly around six seconds off the pace of Ayrton Senna’s McLaren-Honda. Several factors contributed to this: the engine lacked an alternator (requiring heavy onboard batteries), the chassis was not optimized for the new V12, and the car was not running on specialized racing fuel or tires. Reliability: Despite the gap in lap times, the engine proved remarkably reliable during testing and was considered easy to work with by the Lotus mechanics. Economic Collapse: The project coincided with the collapse of the Japanese asset price bubble. This economic instability, combined with Isuzu witnessing the struggles of other Japanese manufacturers (like Yamaha and Subaru) in F1, led them to cancel their entry into the sport. Isuzu eventually displayed the P799WE engine in a concept vehicle called the Isuzu Como F1, a radical mid-engine pickup truck unveiled at the 1991 Tokyo Motor Show. While the F1 program never materialized, the P799WE remains a symbol of Isuzu's ambitious engineering capabilities during that era. Today, one of the few surviving examples of the engine is kept at the Tamiya headquarters and the Isuzu Plaza museum. 🎥 Formula 1 #cars #japan #Isuzu #lotus

Two British men built the machine that changed the world. 🇬🇧⚙️ An ironmonger. And a plumber. You've never heard of either of them. 1690s. Britain's mines were drowning. The deeper they went, the more they flooded. Men drowned in those tunnels. Children hauled water out by hand. Bucket by bucket. When the water won, the mine closed. And the village starved. Thomas Newcomen. Ironmonger. Dartmouth, Devon. John Calley. Plumber and glazier. Both Baptists. Both barred from the universities. Both outsiders. One knew metal. The other knew water. They worked for a decade. With their own money. No patron. No institution. Just a forge, a bench, and an idea. For years, it wouldn't work. Then cold water leaked through a crack. The steam condensed instantly. The engine fired. The flaw was the answer. 1712. A coal mine near Dudley Castle. They built their engine at the pit head. Twelve strokes a minute. Ten gallons a stroke. Not horses. Not children. A machine. But they couldn't patent it. Thomas Savery already held the rights — to every engine that raised water by fire. Even machines he never built. Calley died in Holland. 1725. Far from home. Still working on their engine. Newcomen died in London. 1729. His grave is lost. Decades later, a young man was asked to fix a model of their engine. While fixing it, he saw how to improve it. His name was James Watt. You've heard of him. But without them, there is no engine for Watt to fix. No Industrial Revolution. No modern world. Every factory. Every railway. Every power station. British men. An ironmonger. And a plumber. And that's only a fraction of what we have done for the world. 🇬🇧 Names like theirs are buried everywhere. We dig them out. No sponsors. No algorithms. Just a community that believes its true history matters. Our community makes that happen 👉 Be part of us.🙏 Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧

🚨 Professor Jiang Was Right: The U.S. Is Running a Textbook Ponzi Scheme and Petrodollar Is Under Real Stress Professor Jiang warned that America’s debt system works like a giant Ponzi scheme. Scott Bessent just proved him right in real time. The UK, China, Japan, South Korea and others are now selling U.S. Treasuries. When sellers outnumber buyers, the price of the bonds drops… and the interest rate (the “yield”) shoots up. Higher yields mean it suddenly costs America a lot more to borrow money. So what does Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent do? He starts buying those same long-term bonds himself to prop up the price and keep yields from exploding even higher. Here the government is using its own money (or newly created money) to buy its own debt because foreigners no longer want it. The music is slowing down. For 50 years the system worked like this: Gulf countries agreed to sell oil only in U.S. dollars. That forced every country in the world to keep holding dollars as reserves and buying U.S. Treasuries just so they could buy oil. It was the secret engine that kept demand for American debt alive. That engine is now sputtering. Saudi Arabia just recorded zero oil sales to the United States for the first time ever. Gulf countries are struggling to sell oil at the same scale, and the old “you must use dollars” rule is showing massive cracks. When the world no longer needs as many dollars to buy oil, and when big countries stop buying America’s long-term debt… the whole system that has kept U.S. borrowing cheap for decades starts to break. That’s what we’re watching in real time. Not a conspiracy. Just math and incentives finally catching up.
