| As a practical matter since politicians worldwide are forcing car and truck manufacturers into producing electric vehicles, large-scale investment in a new type of fossil-fuel engine is simply not going to happen regardless of its merits. | |||||

| I agree with you, but I think these rotaries could be used to replace other engines in vehicles such as skid-steers, small to medium excavators, backhoes, lawn mowers, and many others. Personally I found this engine very interesting, just was curious what other people thought. | |||||

| I went through all the information there. 1. I think it is possible and necessary to change the transmission fluid... I don't feel anything unusual. Maybe I don't know how to feel what is needed, but about 80K km ago, the fluid was changed. 1.1 The liquid is dark I would expect it to look a little better... 1.2 I am afraid that despite the replacement the liquid inside (Although Scotty points out that these are much greater distances than my vehicle has traveled at all and according to the receipt I have, it was drained and filled with transmission flui ... | |||||

She got gas one night. The next morning it wouldn't start. There doesn't seem to be water in the oil. It seems like it wants to start but it's only running on a couple cylinders. But, it will not run. I've also noticed when we crank the engine, air is bubbling up in the antifreeze reservoir. I've hooked a noid light up and a spark tester and both seem to work.

| 83k. Looks scary bad to me. I have a warranty and, if this cylinder is considered "toast," I'll press for a painful refund because I don't think they'll disassemble the engine for new pistons/piston rings (if salvageable). The piston is up high, I can only imagine what things would be like if it were low. The only reason I went ahead with the purchase was the warranty and larger dealership backing. I gotta move now to have them fix it or should I forget it. If you comment, please state your experience (mechanic, you've seen this before, you're guessing, etc.).

| Answer to: Sticking brake caliper | 21Relevance | 5 years ago | DanL | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| If your calipers are sticking, you will feel it when touching the rotors after driving. Sometimes the caliper piston sticks because when putting on new pads, the piston is pressed further into the cylinder. If the piston was rusty on the upper part, the rusty part will now stick in the cylinder. Can be fixed by replacing the piston and honing the cyl, but the safest is then to replace the whole caliper. | |||||

| ... (Engine off, car was sitting for a few hours) both gauges read just about 95. So if you have an older system with an orifice or a newer one with an expansion valve, that tells you there isn't an obstruction in the system. (because the pressure is able to equalize). So in my case today, I started the car and turned on the A/C. The compressor clutch engaged and the A/C blew nice and cold. But then, the pressures on the high and low side started climbing past spec. I looked at the condenser coil and it wasn't dirty but I noticed the fans weren't running s ... | |||||
