abes: OK Mr notEinstein 
If your car is a FWD, jack up the front so the two front tyres do not touch the ground, go inside your car, start it, put it in Drive then throttle down. You'll notice your speedometer will be doing James Bond while your car is stationary. Why is that? Your speedometer through the vss measures the rate at which your shaft spins and not the actual speed of your car. What determines the speed of your car is that entity that is in contact with the ground, in this case, the tyres. If you can get your shaft to be in contact with the ground then your car speed will be determined by the shaft (try it ).
There are two speeds involved, the Speedometer Speed(sdsp) and the Actual Speed of the car(acsp). Now at the factory, the speedometer is calibrated using the original tyres (factory fitted tyres) to make sdsp = acsp. Once you change the tyres to a bigger or smaller ones, unless you recalibrate the speedometer, sdsp will never be equal to acsp.
Check out the site in the post I quoted to see the effect of changing your tyres to a different sized ones.
From the example in my quoted post, using two camrys, camry A with the original fitted tyres 215/55R16 and camry B with not factory fitted tyres 215/65R16. If both cars are going at 100km/h sdsp, after one hour, camry A would have covered 100km while camry B would have covered 107km. Obviously camry B is faster even though both speedometers read 100km/h.
Do you need more explanation? Facts Two different tyres different speed Two different distance different speed . Same tyres same distance same speed . Your example above is of two different speed . |

abes: Mr Einstein  Speed = distance covered over time. If your drive shaft completes a revolution in 10sec (assumption) that means any size of tyres installed will also complete their revolution in 10sec. Now assume your current tyre's circumference is 1m, that means in one revolution which is in 10sec, your Tyre will cover a distance of 1m, then speed will be 1m/10sec = 0.1m/s If you install a bigger tyre let's say a circumference of 1.5m, that means in one revolution which is 10sec, your bigger Tyre will cover a distance of 1.5m, then the speed will be 1.5m/10sec = 0.15m/s As you can see, even though the same drive shaft spin both tyres at the same rate (10sec per revolution), the distance and speed differs, the bigger tyre will always result to a higher speed, likewise a smaller tyre will result to a lower speed.
Do you need more explanation? You still do not get it . The speed of a vehicle is.measured by a speed sensor . ......,,,this is what you see in your dash board . Since tyre size does not change the speed at which the gears /shaft rotates it simply means yoyr speedometer will read same for whatever size of wheel you pit there . .The veriables in this narative is not how far a car can go in time.but rather the time it takes to.attain a certain speed . My car does 0 to 100 in 6 seconds . If I keep it at that speed is constant . Your car might take 10.secs to attain 100 kmh but once reached the distance btw me and you will B Constant . NB I'm not Einstein . I'm a mechanical Engineer and I actually did teach physics in Nigeria for a year 1999 . So I ha e Co. E across this question loads of time |

abes: Mr Einstein, the drive shaft and the Tyre complete one cycle at the same time ie they spin at the same rate, but because the tyre is the one in contact with the ground, in one revolution, the car covers the same distance as the circumference of the tyre NOT the circumference of the shaft even though the tyre and shaft revolve at the same rate. Do you need more explanation? your shaft and wheel revolves at same speed, same time, now this is different from distance traveld Speed= Rate of change of the wheel remember I said Rate if you look at teh diagram bellow its a typical rear axle car Now explain how the size of the Tyre would influence the speed of the gear. The gears by the drive shaft is constant it does not change unlike the gears in the gear box hence the output speed at any point is constant btw the wheel and the drive shaft.

SmartChoices: Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Coolant Temperature Switch (Sensor) Common signs include poor fuel economy, black smoke coming from the engine, engine overheating, and the Check Engine Light turning on. by Ed Ruelas on January 06, 2016. The coolant temperature sensor, also known as the coolant temperature switch, is an engine management system sensor that is used to monitor the temperature of the engine’s coolant. Most coolant temperature sensors operate using electrical resistance to measure the temperature of the coolant. This signal is then sent to the computer so that changes can be made to the engine’s timing and fuel calculations for optimal performance, as engines require more fuel when they are cold, and less fuel when they are fully warmed up. The computer will also scale back engine performance settings if it detects that the engine temperature is too high, in order to protect the engine from possible damage due to overheating.
Because temperature plays such a vital role in engine performance calculations, any problem with the coolant temperature sensor can quickly translate into an engine performance issues. Usually a problem with the coolant temperature sensor will cause a few symptoms that alert the driver of a potential problem that should be thoroughly inspected.
1. Poor fuel economy
One of the first symptoms associated with a problem with the coolant temperature sensor is poor fuel economy. If the coolant temperature sensor goes bad it can send a false signal to the computer and throw off the fuel and timing calculations. It is not uncommon for the coolant temperature sensor to fail and send a permanently cold signal to the computer. This will cause the computer to think the engine is cold, even when it is not, and as a result will use more fuel than necessary. This will reduce fuel economy, and may hinder engine performance.
2. Black smoke from engine
Another symptom of a possible problem with the coolant temperature sensor is black smoke from the vehicle’s exhaust. If the coolant temperature sensor fails and sends a cold signal to the computer, this can confuse the computer and cause it to unnecessarily enrich the fuel mixture. If the fuel mixture becomes excessively rich to the point where the fuel cannot be adequately burned in the combustion chamber, it will burn up in the exhaust pipes and cause black smoke. In severe cases, the black smoke may be considerable enough to warrant not driving the vehicle.
3. Overheating engine
Another symptom of a problem with the coolant temperature sensor is an overheating engine. The coolant temperature sensor can also fail in a manner that causes it to send a permanently hot signal. This can cause the computer to incorrectly compensate for a lean signal, which can result in overheating, and even misfires or engine ping.
4. Check Engine Light comes on
An illuminated Check Engine Light is another symptom of a potential problem with the coolant temperature sensor. For some vehicles the computer will set off a Check Engine Light if it detects a problem with the sensor’s signal or circuit. The Check Engine Light will remain on until the issue is addressed.
The coolant temperature sensor is one of the most important engine management sensors, as its reading plays a key role in calculations which affect engine performance. For this reason, if you suspect that your coolant temperature sensor is having an issue, have the vehicle inspected by a professional technician from YourMechanic. They will be able to diagnose your vehicle and determine if you need a coolant temperature switch replacement.

DorlanEyes: Hi everyone, am pretty new in here. i have gone through the thread and i quite appreciate the contributions.
I drive a 2003 Toyota Camry and i notice the water level in the radiator usually goes down while the level in the reservoir increases beyond the normal level. Lately, i have to check the water level before driving out. Please note that no leakages have been noted in the radiator. The thermostat hasn't been removed and the radiator is single cell.
Mechanic 1 said i should change the single cell radiator to double cell; Mechanic 2 said i should change the radiator cap; Mechanic 3 said the top gasket is flat and should be changed
I will appreciate some advice around it as i'm not a fan of trial and error.
Thanks in anticipation of your responses Try Mechanic two but replace with a brand new one, try that for a month if no change, go do clear test to see if option 3 is what you need but never ever try option one in fact that mechanic 1 should be locked up. |

SammyAx: I met him in 2010, and I had to leave for graduate school in 2012. We continued dating and he visited me in the U.S as often as he could. After one of such visits, i discovered he had used my laptop to watch pornography. We had a fight, broke up, then made up again.
I am currently studying for my Doctorate and my greencard application (thru sister) is pending, therefore, i cannot travel out of the country now. So last year we decided to do our wedding in the U.S, and he and his family went to my family in Nigeria to pay my bride price.
My dad gave them a small price because he said we don't need their money and he is not selling me. But the problem was that the boxes of items they were to bring for me ended up being all cheap stuff, not even one single set of gold jewelry. My mum was unhappy and embarrassed, and i was terribly unhappy too. His excuse was that they didn't think the stuff would actually get to me since i am far away. My mum actually sent some of the stuff to me to see for myself. So we got into a huge fight and didn't speak for weeks. I later reached out to try and sort out our differences but he now says that he doesn't want to get married anymore.
I am distraught and embarrassed to even tell my family now because i had to fight for him and stand on my decision despite their hesitations. Is this relationship worth fighting for at all anymore? Do I deserve this after all this time? Your guy deserve an award.HE traveled to the US to visit you and came bck to 9ja and you are complaining of gold ok nah chey U see as man hard for USA . U fit dey 5 years easy no one go price your market . This is fact. So my dear u better return to 9ja. And fight for your man . Some things are just better than silver and gold .
