  • Why does my Acura engine idle down?

    Ok so i got a 2001 acura cl type s with 130,000 miles on it. What it does is that it often idles down like 100-200 RPMs when its stopped or parked. Sometimes its so bad that I feels like its about to die but it never does, and this is usually is when the rpms are at 300-200 (at the lower end). I have checked the intake system and it was all clean, and I even seafoamed where it told me to seafoam the car. But it still idles down when stopped at a light or parked. Please let me know what could cause the rpms to drop like that. Thanks!

  • What V6 engine, without turbo or superchager, is the most powerfull as of today?

    Right now I have a v6 V-tech engine that pushes 260 hp. It can't be a turbo or a supercharged engine but v-tech engines are ok. I dont care about the price I just want to know which one is the strongest (no turbo or supercharger). No Porsche and GTR engines unless they are not turbo or supercharged because most of them are super or turbo charged. A website with information or just information on the engine would be great like size and hp. Thanks.

    PS: I am not talking about cars with engines I am just talking about just the engine it self.

  • Can my car cross the border into Canada?

    My car is a 2001acura cl type s. It has a cold air intake, headers, exhaust, two 12 inch subs, and is lowered. The frame is probably about 4-5 inches from the ground. Maybe 3-4inches. Just in case, so they don't stop us at the border because of a stupid reason.

    Or can u tell me how I can find out. I saw something online about the dealer certifing it for Canada. Just wanted to see if u guys would know before I do that.

    -thanks

  • Physics simplifying a equation: how did the book get to this force equation?

    OK so the book went from this equation:

    F cos30º- μk(mg- F sin30º) =0

    and turned it into this equation:

    F=(μkmg)/(cos30º + μk sin30º)

    How did they do that? I can't seem to follow through with it. This was for a question about how much work is being done if someone pulls a crate at 30º. Step by step would be good thanks.

  • Physics help!!!! :How much potential energy is stored in each spring?

    A spring (spring 1) with a spring constant of 510N/m is attached to a wall and connected to another weaker spring (spring 2) with a spring constant of 260N/m on a horizontal surface. Then an external force of 140N is applied to the end of the weaker spring (#2).

    U1=__________ U2 = _____________

    I could do this problem with 1 spring but not when it has 2 springs, i am not sure what to do please help.

  • Physics help plz: Determine the forces of static friction on each block.?

    Unless otherwise stated, all objects are located near the Earth's surface, where g = 9.80 m/s2.

    One block (A, mass 2.20kg ) rests atop another (B, mass 4.90kg ) on a horizontal surface. The surface is a powered walkway accelerating to the right at 2.60m/s2 . B does not slip on the walkway surface, nor does A slip on B's top surface.

    Determine the forces of static friction on each block.

  • Physics Fpush and Fpull problem. Help plz?

    A person has a choice while trying to push a crate across a horizontal pad of concrete: push it at a downward angle of 30∘ , or pull it at an upward angle 30∘.

    If the crate has a mass of 51.0 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction between it and the concrete is 0.700, calculate the required force to move it across the concrete at a steady speed for both situations.

    F-pull=?

    F-push=?

  • Car noise when stopped at a stop light?

    Description of noise:

    The engine sound is normal, but sometimes the sound goes down and makes it seem like its about to turn off. only happens sometimes when i am stopped at a light, or stopped in drive. It does not turn off. I had this problem before too on my old car but could find the problem. Could it be the battery ready to die? Or wire problem on the battery?

  • How much HP gain can you get with performance chips?

    OK, I know that these chips suck for low end HP cars. But how about for a 2001 Acura CL type S, with intake, headers, and exhaust. The factory HP on it is 260, so right now its( I am guessing) 280 HP. So how much would it be with the chips. I am talking in general, so please good ESTIMATES would help. And please no small details, I might already know. I am just posting this to see what could be the gains or loses on my car. Hopefully gains.
