I'm wondering an automotive water pump can run in reverse if supplied with pressurized water. If it can, then I could hook up an alternator to its pulley and theoretically get power from it. I'm researching alternative energy and am brainstorming different options to pump water into a storage tank (by windmill most likely), then to take the power from it... be it a water wheel, water pump, whatever. If you know if the pump works in reverse, please let me know. Sorry, not interested in guesses! Thanks!

I'm just wondering...because people just love to tailgate me. And i'm not going 40-45 mph. I'm going the speed limit....and sometimes....over...*i'm safe where i'm driving at*....anyways...

I have a W'04 bumpersticker...and i didn't know if that would enrage people to tailgate me...

Please say yes. The seat height is perfect for a shortie like me (5'6") and i love the bike dimensions. And best of all...my wife is backing me up if she can come along...!!!


With a blessing like that all i need is the answer "yes". If not...any suggestions for a comfortable low seat height cruiser or sport tourer comfortable for 2-Up riding will be greatly appreciated. And if ya ever bike up to NYC i'll be your free tour guide..!!

Thanks in advance..!!

but my credit isn't great. (Intrerest rate 12.99) Would've been higher had I bought a used car. (But I got hit by a drunk driver and my last car got totalled out, so this was my only option was to buy this car--the one currently driving and hate, at the time, because I could get it from the same dealer w/ no money down. So my question is this.
Can I trade my current car in and lets just say I owe 11,000 on it let's say I get .........$7,000.................trade in value and then get a new car for say $13,000 does that only leave me owing the remaining balance,say $6,000 for a newer and better car then the one I originally bought? Or does it not work that way? Do I still owe the entire $13,000. Please help.

We rented this car. It malfunctioned causing injury to my husband. Basicly it went from 2-3 mph to much faster without the accelerator being pressed in fact we were stopping. I found some instances of this happening to others on web. Would like to find more. Have you had this happen or can you suggest a web site to search in this?

I recently bought a Nissan Versa. I am going to trade in this car 2-3 years from now ( my actual contract is $260/72 mo including GAP insurance ).
I am wondering if, knowing that I will trade in this car should I pay more that the monthly bill on the car?
Will that make a difference on the value of my trade in if I have pay a lot on the car already?
Bcz if it does not make a difference I might as well just stick with my regular payments and not put more money toward the principal.

2. I found two prices from Yahoo. One is MSRP$50,655 & the other is Invoice price$46,699 . it's about $4000 different.!!

A disused trainline passes 100 feet behind our house that may soon be used for a new commuter diesel train. Is there any research showing the decibel levels at 100 feet away of a modern diesel train or light rail at this distance running at ~30mph.

Links to any detailed research showing actual db levels of commuter diesels or light trail trains will get your answer ranked higher. Interested in the facts (not the politics).

I've heard from some people that dodge engines and transmissions don't hold up. Is there any truth to this? Are their any models better than others? Thanks

I reset my computer and it came right back up. Since this code has popped up, my rev limited is kicking in at about 3800-4000 rpms and the car doesn't have the extra power from the VTEC like it used to. What will the dealership do to fix this and how much will it cost?

I'm a college student about to buy her first car. I was looking at a 2001 Eclipse, but lately I've heard from a friend that they were a money-pit. I wont have the resources to spend loads of money on mechanics, and I dont know a THING about cars. So I'm wondering if a 2001 Eclipse will make me go broke?!
