Subject: Anyone on the flood know about cars?

i want you guys to teach me all about cars. by that i mean like how they work, differences in engines and stuff, and what the words like carburetor and horse power mean. i'm completely clueless, thanks :)

Close, but the plague killed those infected with it, and the ignorant are still alive.
I wish ignorance was a plague.

I know about cars; they're pretty cool inventions that let me go places.

Be not afraid, for the forest nymphs have taught me how to pleasure a women.

Well cars are interesting things indeed.

Cars engines work in two cycles.

The first is the gasoline cycles.
The gasoline cycle refers to a complex series of chemical reactions that produce carbon dioxide and adenosine triphosphate, a compound rich in energy. The cycle occurs by essentially linking two carbon coenzyme with carbon compounds; the created compound then goes through a series of changes that produce energy. This cycle occurs in all engines that utilize oxygen as part of their energy process; this includes those engines of cars from the higher end auto makers such as ferraris. Carbon dioxide is important for various reasons, the main one being that it stimulates acceleration, while adenosine triphosphate provides engines with the energy required for the synthesis of proteins from amino acids and the replication of deoxyribonucleic acid; both are vital for energy supply and for life to continue. In short, the gasoline cycle constitutes the discovery of the major source of energy in all auto engines.

They are called "go go machines"

There's quite a few people here that know a lot about cars. It depends on what type of car and if you are wanting information on repairing a older car or buying a new car.

answers about the laws of gravity seemed to have fell upon me.

Most of us will be of no help.

I read this once, not really paying attention and then towards the end, I was like "WAT???" and read through it again more carefully.

Just buy a Chilton's manual for your car and use it to do your own work when something breaks. What little I know, I learned this way.

Since everyone (me included) seems to just be messing around, I'll post something that's actually helpful.

ENJOY

Chiltons manuals are worth their weight in gold.

Yeah OP, just go on a How Stuff works marathon about cars, because theres not enough space here to even scratch the clear coat on this subject.

This. Go to a car forum and just read articles, that will help. Also start doing work on your current vehicle start with simple oil changes and then move into more complicated stuff. Buying a project car is good way to learn too. It's expensive but it's a good way to learn.

that link will be extremely helpful, thank you so much.

hmm, could you teach me about brakes/brake fluid and how it works?
