  • Did i install the wrong distributor? hesitates on acceleration?

    My car is 1.5l and there are 1.6l versions of the same engine with different distributors. The printing on the box is unreadable and the seller could easily have mistaken this for the wrong one.

    Could the wrong distributor cause these symptoms:

    I set the idle and timing by the book and it sits smoothly at 650 rpm without the tps connected, 6 degrees btdc as per the hood labels instructions. If i step on the gas slowly it revs smooth, but if i step on the gas for a quick rev from idle it hesitates for a second, then runs smooth.

    It reminds me of when my scooter had a rich condition when the autochoke failed and it hesitated for a bit when i gave it too much gas on takeoff.

  • Do i need a root canal?

    An old filling fell out a couple of months ago and i haven't had it looked at by anyone because i haven't had any pain (i'm a procrastinator) but about a week and a half ago i had a really uncomfortable (but not painful) tooth ache which made me think maybe the nerve was dead so i bought some mouthwash and just tried flushing the tooth hole out for 10 minutes and everyday since there has been no pain or much sensitivity. Does this mean that i just need another filling and no root canal?

  • Excessive sweating when sleeping. What is this?

    I am 18 years old and most nights in the past month my shirt has been completely drenched and i've had to get up, freezing cold, to take the shirt off and quickly turn the heater on; sometimes multiple times a night.

    Last night i fell asleep for about 10-20 minutes, I'm not sure how long exactly but a 30 minute video i started to watch was still playing when i woke up, and my arms were already wet and i was very hot.

    It's mid winter here.

  • Why does my desktop shut down when i plug something into the same multioutlet that the desktop is plugged into?

    I have a 400w hps light plugged to the wall and in the second socket i have a multioutlet with the pc and monitor, a speaker system, a clock, and a bare light socket with a 23w cfl plugged in.

    When ever i unplug the light and plug it in a few hours later it shuts down this computer immediately.

    I did have a hot gluegun short out a while ago in the same outlet which took out my laptop charger

    but my ballast thankfully survived.

    What's going on here?

  • Can i use outdoor potting mix for indoor plants?

    I've got some seedlings in seedling mix right now and their cotyledons are starting to yellow so i bought some potting mix with time release nutes that says "Ideal for all outdoor plant" because it had a 70% discount. It is for pot plants that you put on your deck. Would this be OK? if it isn't would i be able to keep them in the seedling mix and liquid feed?
