by Jammie via Jammie Wearing Fools
Hey, maybe they should have read the bill before supporting it. We’d tell
these folks to just suck it up since they support Obama, but this is a
plague affecting so many people that we need a cure soon.
A new report from a major U.S. union says ObamaCare will hasten income
inequality.
Although it defends the intent behind the Affordable Care Act, the

On Friday, the latest consumer sentiment numbers from the University of
Michigan released Friday showed that in March confidence rose again, as the
index of consumer sentiment rose to 97.6 from a final reading of 96.3 in
February.
Though just below readings seen in January and February, March’s
preliminary reading indicates consumers haven’t been this consistently
confident since early 2004.

发帖数: 142 | 9 it is the wheel lock, which prohibits the steering wheel to
move without the key turned on. its goal is to prevent
thieves to drive the car without having the key. :o
if u park your car on uneven surface and steering wheel
is not levelled after you pulled off keys, the gravity force
will be exerted to the steering wheel and cause the lock
to lockup, which prevents you to turn on the key again.
turn the wheel from side to side releases the force and
helps you to recover from it. |

发帖数: 142 | 10 no. there are uneven tire worns at different wheels.
if not doing rotation, a good tire can worn out at one point
much faster without reaching its warranty range.
most places has lifetime free balance and rotation
when you bought tires. need to do it every 7500 miles
or half year.
for existing tires, walmart has $7.5 per tire lifetime
balance and rotation plan to purchase additionally too. |

When did you check your tires last time? Did they check the tires when they
changed the hub for you? |

unless you have change a pair recently, and one is damaged for some reason

part of tire change/install ($10-15) is to balance it.
tire change does not call for wheel alignment ($50-100).

which could include wandering).

发帖数: 4125 | 19 My guess is your front tires need balancing, assume your rear tires is

If your car needs alignment, does your old tire (or current front tire) wear unevenly? If you let go the steering wheel, does the car still go straight on flat road with no wind. |

Engine Will Not Start
When the timing belt breaks, the engine absolutely will not start
because the camshaft is no longer operating the valves, making combustion
impossible. The camshaft has uneven lobed surfaces that lift the pushrods,
allowing the valves to open and close with precise timing. Without this
operation, the engine cannot even suck fuel into the chambers for ignition
