Cars & Transportation - 5 November 2006

Yes, you do get cheap ones if you book at least 3-4 weeks before your travel. But why the extortionate fee from around £94 for a single trip from Sheffield to London or Newquay to Sheffield, etc?

Everyone's into "going green" and it's one of the government's initiatives. Surely, people will gladly hop on trains than drive around if the fares are reasonable? It's ridiculous that airfares are so cheap these days. So why are train fares expensive?

I think it's ridiculous! We make our kids buckle in the car. Why is it the one vehicle that transports our most precious cargo hasn't taken the responsibility and added seat belts to the bus? It's the one place we should feel comfortable putting our kids. Something needs to be done!

gridlock for rest us while they're waiting five minutes for the other car to leave? Why don't they just go up a couple of levels and park there?

I bought a 66' bug that had a bad motor. A valve went through the piston so, I purchased new piston and cylinders from several different sourcse all for a 1300cc motor. The cylinders match what I have and the pistons go in the cylinders but the wrist pins are different! The wrist pins on my motor are smaller than the one's that came with one of the pistons I bought. Another vendor sent me a piston with two wrist pins but both pins are smaller then the opening on the piston but do fit the rods on the motor! What size wrist pins should I have for a 1300cc or/and 1200cc motor?

Ok i don't normally know much about cars. Our car keeps shuting down when my husband clutches in or something like that.

Since it happens mostly when he starts the car and when he first drives I told him that he needs to warm up his car first (especially when its cold). Am i correct?

Or its it something else??

My car is a couple years older than what is listed as e85 compatible. Will it hurt it any? What if I get half e85 and half regular gasoline? I know that in the 1980s ethanol mix was sold for all cars and I never had problems then. (e85 is up to 20 cents less here)

I went to a petrol (gas) station to change the oil of the car but I wasn't there to see them change it. How can I tell if they did the job or if I was robbed???

I often control the speed of my car by changing down gears. Is more fuel used as the revs increase?

My car is a 1990s variable-valve timing kinda badboy.
