Answer a fool according to his folly, lest He be wise in his own conceit.

I take it you're the fool, right?

Dont argue with the dude, he is not a Christian.

Neither am I a Muslim. Gods have no religion.

Sunymoore:

Bro, you can't cheat nature and technology.. If you are low in gas, there is no way in hell you're going to cover hundreds of kilos.. That's the glaring fact! I refused to accept any form of Bullshit!

Define nature.
if u were one of our forebears, u wouldn't believe in airplanes. The problem with Africa is that we don't try to discover the mystery behind facts.

Besides, when God chooses to interfer in the affairs of men, every natural rule, could be suspended.

What about the AC myth??

That you save more fuel when you drive without an AC.

That one is a fact and not a myth.

Do you have faith In a higher being at all?... In short do you Pray?

Zoharariel:


And who is the fool between your so called anointed MOG who dishes out mind-boggling lies just to brainwash you into parting with your hard-earned money and the gullible congregants who swallow his lies hook, line & sinker?

In my lexicon, my friend, there's nothing like religion.

The day I lost respect for Pastor E.A. Adeboye, a PhD in mathematics, was when he told his congregation that there was this particular man who had been longing to have a glimpse of him for a very long time. So, one day, as they were in church, anytime this man makes an attempt to have a sight of him someone will unknowingly block him.

So, he, the man, then prayed to God and all of a sudden the man just grew tall, to the extent the wife could not recognize him again, and he was able to see him. Does that not sound like uncle Jimi Solanke's story land story land, bring your friends along.

To all those castigating you, leave then to their folly, Christianity in Africa was founded on deceit.

No wonder my ferrari 504 consume fuel so much.

Bro...if you wanna lie.... let your lie have a good foundation. There is no such thing as a Ferrari 504...doesn't exist...was never made...liar...

moyinoluwabun:
you would as well find it hard to believe that Jesus fed thousands with 5loaves of bread and two fishes.

Exactly my thoughts. Some people tho

It's not a myth as such tho.

If you're in the city then you'll save fuel with your ac turned off.

If you're on the highway, and you have your windows rolled down, this makes your car less aerodynamic/ less slippery in the wind which makes your car actually consume more fuel than when you have your windows rolled up and the ac turned on.

Wrong!
I watched mythbusters bust that myth, on practice driving on a highway with ur windows rolled up and ac on consumes fuel more

[quote author=saifuhot post=44160631][/quote] I'm not dumb sir. U can learn more by reading John 14:12. If dat will take care of ur ignorant about Jesus/God/Miracles.

Zoharariel:
Myth 8: Enoch Adeboye drove a car without petrol from Ore to Lagos

Pastor Adeboye was coming from Onitsha during the petrol crises when he realized he needed to buy petrol, but there was no petrol in Onitsha. He decided he would try Asaba, but found out also, there was no petrol in Asaba. Continuing his journey, he hoped to buy petrol on reaching Benin, but to his amazement also found out there was no petrol station open for business in Benin, Pastor Adeboye undaunted finally thought he would find petrol to buy at Ore.

By the time he reached Ore, the next stop, his petrol warning light came on, indicating that he was then on reserve supply. At this point Pastor Adeboye said God told him not to look at the petrol gauge, but to continue his journey. Following God’s instruction, Pastor Adeboye continued his journey from Ore, without looking at the fuel gauge, until he got to his residence in Surulere in Lagos.

Ladies & Gentlemen - You guessed right! The Yahwehgian bastards believed him.

wow,this is a killing

Well said

May GOD bless you. Pls i beg you sir, madam, uncle, aunty, sister and brother i am 6 month pregnant with 6 bottles of cold beer for one joint near lagos island now now. i need some one to quote me with just one rude comment that will clear off the beer in me because am drunk so that i can start going home pls.

...My Guy, to solve the problem, do this: swallow extra six bottles of beer; swallow six shots of monkey tail; swallow extra six shots of manpower; and thereafter, take a taxi to army barrack. Surely, you will be delivered of two sets of twins...
....

@OP, I have always been wondering on the fuel consumption of the car while the a/c is on. This confusion stems from the fact that, even while the engine is off, you can run your car a/c. The only snag is it runs down your battrey How come the a/c consumes fuel when it actually runs on the car battery? Would be grateful if more light is thrown on this.

The 'nature' I meant is natural/technological order, that is, how things work..
Why won't I believe in aeroplanes? While a simple Google search can tell you the principle behind it.. I'm a born scientist, so I'm always rational...
Well, God can/always interfere with affairs of the world/men, but I out rightly refused to accept that toxic Bullshit!

OK. sorry. I get you know.

are you saying that my car consumes less fuel if I wind up and use AC on express compared to wind down?

Yes. Try it sometime.

pls more info about the car AC issue

What happens to the additional load on the engine when the AC is turned on?? Wouldn't the engine need extra fuel to accommodate the additional load?

that roadside mechanic talk about AC being a load is in itself a myth.

the AC compressor is always connected to the engine by the fan belt. so whether you're actually using the AC or not, it is already factored into the car's fuel efficiency and its part of the engine

analogy: if your fridge is plugged in, if you turn the temperature to cooling or you dont, it will still use up your electricity. the difference is that when you ask it to cool, the cooling agent travels through the system to drop the temperature as it is using that electricity. the same thing is what happens with the car AC

Myrolemodel:

The Mercedes C- Class and Volkswagen products are very fuel efficient, even in traffic hold-ups. Toyota on the other hand is less fuel efficient if you have to move and stop frequently as often happens in traffic. But they are very efficient in long journeys on the free way

You are right, some other brands like Mitsubishi Mirage are fuel efficient, but they aren't Toyota and Honda brands

This is one of the best sites to help you calculate your fuel usage per mile/km

wrong! while your compressor is connected to the engine by a belt, it is not pumping/compressing any fluid until it is engaged. at that point it puts load on your engine which increases fuel consumption. even lights and fans load an engine and increase fuel use. the amount of fuel used to compensate for the extra load depends on the state of the engine, engine power output, amount of load etc.
i am ashamed of some of the responses here. the internet is a global village and I hope readers out there do not take the responses here as a fair representation of our level of knowledge.

Actually, what you should be ashamed of is your own response and like you said, the information is out there for any one who wants to learn.

the fact the you say lights and interior fan (electrical systems that run off the car's battery) load a car's engine confirms to me you do not know what you're talking about.

those who want to know, are free to learn

you can only run your blower (fan) with the battery but not your Ac compressor. your compressor needs your engine to be on to work unless you have an auxiliary heating or cooling system (available in some new model vehicles). this auxiliary system runs on whatever powers your vehicle though.
the Ac does not run on the car battery.

and the battery gets its juice from the alternator which in turn gets its power from the engine. do you get the logic here? connect a scangauge or obd Bluetooth readout to your car, lookup "engine load", turn on all electrical appliances on your car to maximum and tell me if the engine load figure does not go up. we are all here to learn. I learnt a lot here and in other fora but I swear the level of ignorance here is monumental.
