Me and my mom are arguing over what makes a chopper a chopper and what makes a crotch-rocket a crotch-rocket. By crotch-rocket I mean like a Suzuki Hayabusa or a Ninja. I say a chopper is defined by the sound it makes but yeah whatever. Please answer so that we can settle this. Thanks.

I think buses should have the type of seatbelt that rollercoasters have. Overhead padded bars with a safety switch that would disable the bus if they weren't connected, and also would automatically disengage after an accident.

I think drivers should be able to VOLUNARILY re sit their driving tests after so many years and if deemed to have improved their driving then they should be rewarded by cheaper insurance????

My VW bug sat for a year unused, when I went to drive it I found the clutch would not disengage. Are there any easy ways to get the clutch to release without going thru a whole engine drop and rebuild?

The battery seems to drain after about 200 miles. I tried looking it up but with no luck. At first I thought it might be the alternator but every other one I had to go bad just did suddenly and there was nothing to do but change out the alternator.
How do you determine if the battery is adequate?

The car is a Toyota Camry V6, 1992. The valve cover was leaking oil, so I changed the gasket. Inside was a lot of thick dark sludgy oil. I cleaned that off the valve cover, and replaced it. But now - the car starts easily, but makes a high pitched sound of metal on metal, and idles at 2000rpm. If I wait ten minutes it will recover and idle normally. If instead of waiting, I drive it, it starts to smoke from the engine compartment.
If I put it into reverse gear while I am waiting, the idle speed drops and the engine sounds better, the grinding noise stops.
Any ideas what to do? What could I have possibly done when I changed the valve cover to cause this? (I didn't drop a bolt in there!!!). Thanks in advance, Kali

We are now into 21 James Bond Movies and I thought it would be a good debate to have about the Best Bond car, give your reasons to you answer and if you can name the films with each car playing a major part in it then even better.
