How to Tune Up On Car

Jakarta - Doing a tune up or restore the performance of the car did not have to shop, especially if only for routine maintenance. You just do it yourself at home. In addition to easy, the cost is cheap.
"With a record of no parts inside the machine that is problematic," said Ade Bujang, modifier GarasiAuto, Kemayoran, Central Jakarta, Monday, July 11, 2011.

According to Ade, the key to restore the performance or power a car that has been used several months of traveling is to make sure the ignition system of the engine back perfect. "Not only on cars that still use carburetors, but also has put on the injector. In combustion devices must be cleaned, "he said.
So what can be done? Here's an explanation Ade.
1. Clean air filter
The first and easiest thing to do is clean the filter or air filter. The trick, remove the device from the container, then use a compressor or other device that has a high wind pressure.
If no such equipment, you can use a soft brush size serempat. Then clean the dirt on the cells of the airways.
After that, use the fan and press the size of the highest wind gust. It was intended that dirt still attached missing.
Cleanliness of air filter condition also determines the result of combustion. "Because the air is dirty and mixed with fuel causes incomplete combustion process. As a result, labor was lackluster, "said Ade. However, if the device was very dirty, then it should be replaced.
2. Clean the spark plug and replace if worn
After cleaning the air filter, the next step is to clean the spark plug. These devices are vital to the process of burning fuel and air in the combustion chamber as a lighter engine.
When worn, the spark will not occur. As a result the process of combustion does not occur and the car was breaking down. "Spark plugs are just a sprinkle of fire also led to incomplete combustion," said Ade.
In addition to cleaning the spark plug axis and head to the brush, the level of estrangement should also be rearranged. To the level of estrangement, it should not be too tight and not too loose.

When the spark plug is worn out, should be replaced immediately. Generally, the ideal use of spark plugs is 20-25 thousand kilometers. Before installing the spark plug back into place, spray the spark plug hole by using carbon cleaner. It was intended to clean the crust or the remnants of burning in the hole.
3. Clean the carburetor or injector
In principle between the carburetor and injector has a similar function, that is a supplier of fuel into the engine combustion chamber.
If you have time and inclination, you should do the cleaning in the carburetor. The way is open all the nuts and bolts of the carburetor, then discard any remaining fuel. Use a small soft brush to remove dirt, then rinse the parts or components in the device by using gasoline or diesel.
Once clean, reinstall the valve set estrangement, buoys, and make sure the holes do not clog the carburetor.
If your car has been using the injector, the air filter off leading to the Thtrottle Body (TB). At the same time, turn the engine and spray injector cleaner into the throttle. "Spray it until three-quarters of the contents of cans and to keep in mind when spraying the engine must be turned on, about 15 minutes," said Ade.
Carbon liquid cleaner and injector cleaner sold at many auto parts stores or auto accessories. Lots of brands, quality, and price offered.
4. Apply pressure to the combustion chamber tugs
The way to do this pounding, you can simply turn on the ignition. Then, stepped on the gas pedal to the deepest level. Do it the way it is four to five times.
If you want to get the exact size of the stamping on the gas pedal, then use the indicator on the car. Hit the gas pedal until the appointment of RPM needle (levels engine rotation per minute) showed the highest position or redline.
"The way it is for the eroded crust or dirt in the fuel line and the combustion chamber so that the engine combustion process can be perfect again," said Ade.
After that, leave the engine running and the condition remains stationary or slow. When it has lasted 5-10 minutes, you can turn it off and tune-up process was completed.

Cars Can Fly Through Terrafugia Public Road

New York - The Terrafugia Transition flying car, which is priced USD 1.8 billion per unit, are now allowed by the Institute for Highway Safety (NHTSA) used in the street or highway in the United States.
As written on the page huffingtonpost, July 9, 2011, since the end of June 2011 The Transition no longer parked at the airport or taken home by transported after takeoff and landed at the airport.
"Now, after flying, Terrafugia can be used in any way," said huffingtonpost.
The Terrafugia Transition flying car launched an aircraft manufacturer in Woburn, Massachusetts, United States.
After going through a series of trials and development since 2006, the Transition could be aired in the sky Plattsburgh, New York, and successfully landed smoothly in March 2010.
American Aviation Administration Transition states meet the standards of aircraft and aviation as well classify as a light-sport aircraft. However, this is not the right vehicle speeding down the street.
How to fly it is also quite easy. Cars must be driven up to speeds of 60 kilometers per hour before flying lever is pulled. In 30 seconds, electrically folding wing will automatically unfold.
Enough to drive this car for 2 people, with computer-operated navigation system. While in the air, the car weighs 650 pounds can fly 185 kilometers per hour. "Ideal distance that can be reached 644 kilometers," said Vice President Terrafugia, Richard Gersh, at a time.
On the highway, this car can be folded wings to stay as wide as 2 feet of span 8.4 meters.

Mostly Motorists No Concentration In Driving

Washington - Concentrate while driving is a must do. In addition to convenience awake, the driver can also maneuver and choose the right path. Full concentration while driving is also very decisive road safety.
However, a study conducted Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA), which is the representative office of the National Highway Safety Agency in the state of the United States showed alarming results.
"As many as 25-50 percent of the driver losing concentration or impaired while driving a car," the release of the institute as reported thecarconnection.com, Tuesday, July 12, 2011.
That fact is not messing around and baseless. GHSA admitted that figure is the conclusion of the study, published in 250 scientific manuscripts throughout 2000 until the first half of 2011. Scientific papers are then summarized in a paper contains 50 pages and titled "Distracted Driving: What Research Shows and What States Can Do."
Several important discoveries in the study were:
1. As many as 25-50 percent of drivers do not concentrate or disturbed his concentration while driving.
2. Some things that obstruct the driver while driving is visual disturbances, such as turning off the road in front of him, read the billboards, posters, and others. In addition, listening to the sound or sounds, like voices from outside the car, radio, tape and compact disc player is also a factor lowering the concentration of the other.
3. Other findings that are not less alarming is the third of the respondents admitted calling while driving. In fact, one in eight respondents said typing and sending short messages (SMS) via cell phone while controlling the car.
4. Approximately 15-30 percent of the accidents involved drivers who admitted the loss of concentration is the trigger of the accident.
5. Using hands free for easy talking on the phone was no safer than talking directly via mobile phones. The use of devices that still require special attention so that the concentration of the driver remains consumed.
6. Respondents believe that the rules prohibit calling and typing short messages on mobile phones in the long run does not have a significant impact in reducing accidents. The reason, loss of concentration is not solely because the two activities.
In addition to six of the above reasons, the researchers also found other factors cause the disruption of the driver's concentration. Some of it is manual and cognitive activity.
Manual activity in question is fiddling with something other than a steering wheel or the gear lever when shifting gears. "For example, tinkering with the audio system devices, cell phones, reading maps or brochures, and others."
As for cognitive impairment in question is thinking about something other than driving. Employment problems, household, and other social problems that burden the mind is a few things that cause the disruption of cognitive aspects
