Both side make this noise, but mostly on the left front and usually when backing slowly and turning the wheels sharp to the right.

I'm 21, 4"11, 105 lbs. I've wanted to buy a motorcycle for the past couple years, but I can't find one that my legs will touch the ground. I'm looking for a bike that I can handle, as far as weight wise, but it's still got power and speed. Not a lil moped. I'd rather not have one custom made due to how expensive that can get but I can't find one that will work for me. Any suggestions of types of bikes or places to look?

The second turn of the ignition it starts. Sometimes it does start on the first turn. I had the starter checked & was told it's ok. What is in between the ignition & the starter?

I recently purchased a 1992 Honda Elite 80 with 400 miles. It will not
run. The scooter has good compression, fire and gas is getting to the
carb.I pulled tank and cleaned. I checked fuel petcock-it works. I
checked bystarter-it extends from 22mm to 25mm. I dipped carbs in
cleaner (several times). I cleaned all valves with guitar strings.
Float works. Air box looks complete. Exhaust was pulled-its clear. If I
use drain screw on bottom of carb bowl and drain out the fuel in the
bowl-it will start then idle rough for a few seconds-then die. The only
way it will start back up is to repeat the process and drain fuel out
of the bowl. Is this a carb or vacuum problem? Does the bystarter valve
use an o-ring? The o-rings and gasket in the carbs are marginal at
best-could this be the culprit? Is a rebuild kit available for this
carb?


Thanks In Advance

I have a Dodge Neon 2.0 DOHC all motor highly modified. The only thing stock is the bottom end. Off the dyno I'm seeing 179 HP to the wheels with minor weight reduction and subs and amps removed. Nonetheless I'm only getting low 14's through the quarter mile with street slicks. Not bad but not good enough. I live in Denver, and I wondering, believing that my driving isn't the issue, can altitude really take what seems like 2+ seconds of an all-motor ET?

So then forced induction... I can't afford a turbo, so 2 stages of nitrous would be what I'd do. Would two stages just suck up my gas mileage and leave me wanting more? Because I'm thinking forced induction at altitude would be extremely effective and I'd get my two seconds back if I sprayed both stages as 75HP shots...

Possible? If so, what else should I consider to make life a little faster for me? Basically I want low 12s.

And dropping the Neon isn't an option so let's ignore car choice and talk performance.

I'm looking for information on the weight distrubution of people and other items, like artwork and a loot of money, for the novel I'm working on. How fast? How long, let's just say from Arizona to Utah and/or Nevada? How many people can fit in one? And the types and names of these planes? I know it's a lot.

I was thinking of getting a used 92/93 BMW E36 316/318/320. I've heard of the auto gearboxes giving owners nightmares on repair and maintenance costs. Anything i should look out for (engine, chassis, transmission) before making a purchase?

I'm pretty new at driving and yesterday was taking a left turn in a small city's downtown area. It was from a side street onto a busier road, and I had a stop sign. I needed to turn left, but there was this huge delivery truck parked at the corner, so I could not see any of the cars coming from the left. Cars coming from the left could not see me until I was fully into the road.

What does one do in this situation? Kind of creep forward so that you're halfway into the road till you can finally see, at which point the driver coming from the left will see you and hopefully let you go? Or do you just take the left turn and hope anyone barreling at you from the left will hit the brakes?

This is an accident waiting to happen...
