I understand 1 RPM is one paying passenger for every mile flown. But I don't understand the meaning of it. Is it better to have high or low RPM? For example Southwest has a higher number of passengers than American Airlines but AA has higher RPM than Southwest. Thanks for any clarification.

Ive had this nissan altima since the day I drove it off the car lot and about 3 months ago the head gasket was blown, ever since that Ive been looking for a good mechanic that I can trust to work on the vehicle I live in Dallas,TX and have been doing some research on price quotes and the majorityt of them all was of course TrophyNissan.com they were asking for about $3,200.00 dollars, and the mest up thing is that my vehicle had a recall last year over the catback and also the head gasket which were blown out last year also, but I had a 1 year warranty on the both of them and now since that warranty barely passed me over a month im forced and screwed to pay off the vehicle and also the maintenance, anyways I realized why does it cost so much many places the labor cost more than the parts lol, if anyone from the DallasFortWorth,TX area knows a good shop that can stick within the budget for me about $1500.00 or cheaper than that please let me know this is affecting my life alot GODBLESS

Every time I turn on the heater I smell some type of fragrance. My central nervous system can no longer tolerate ANY fragrance, perfume, or other artifical scents.

Essentially I have a feeling that my steel rims may be warpped. I don't want to just purchase new rims to find that they were good in the first place. Is there a tool to test for runout like brake rotors.

The thermostate works. I think it may be electrical.

I washed and waxed the hood of my '97 Monte Carlo with Turtle Wax Super Hard Shell Car Wax. I applied it with a 100% cotton cloth. I let it dry and then removed with a microfiber and then a 100% cotton cloth. The hood feels perfectly smooth and shiny like I wanted, but you can still see streaks left by the Turle Wax, the car has been taken good car of and the paint and clear coat are still like new on the hood. Any ideas on how to get rid of those streaks for the perfect shine?

Well my tranny is busted and when I put it in Drive it slips completely on the 3rd of 4th gear. When I put it in "2" it drives perfect, but what are ALL the bad things that does to your car?

Also, how much should I sell this car for? Its a 1990 Chevy Blazer in fair condition, also need blinkers.

I have a 1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cierra with app.120,000 miles. Just the other day it started to squeak when I acelerated, almost like bird chirping, and then tonight another thing happened. I was idling outside of a store for abot 4 minutes, then turned the vehicle off. Next thing I know I hear a bubbling/boiling sound, opened my hood and saw that my engine coolant was EXTREMELY hot, and from where I was I could see it was somehow leaking onto the inner part of my front right tire and onto the ground, but could not see from where.....

Any information/suggestions will be greatly appreciated
thankyou

I don't understand why people run in the road when there is a sidewalk right there next to them. I see this all the time, even at night. I'll almost run someone over because they are jogging in the road, instead of on the sidewalk. Why do people do this? Don't they realize they could be hit by a car?

Or why don't we export french cars to the US?
Nowadays, we have very good cars. As good as yours.. I'm always surprised to see in your streets a lot of ugly korean cars but no modern french cars.
For example Citroën C6 or Peugeot 407 coupé.
have a look :

They're far better than any other hyundai or Kia.

Twice my '06 Civic had trouble starting after it had been off for a long time. Would just try to turn over, and eventually it would start. Battery seems fine.

It has the four cylinder turbo and seems to be getting gas and ignition (will run momentarily if gas poured down throttle body). It ran and then was stored outside for a year and a half - also the digital dash won't light since being stored outside. I checked all the fuses and some of the relays - it seems the injectors are not firing - do not know what to try next. Thanks for any and all help.
