A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.
I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!
Only goofs & silliness. (:

I'm not an expert either but have been trying to learn about my cars always to do as much as possible myself (to save money). Has helped that my cars have always been "older" models so they have been significantly easier to take care of myself. I don't dare to touch newer cars' insides.
But, to the question: often it's both + all the dirt and crap that gets in there.
It's not really a problem though until you need to change your battery or have to give it a jump start :)
Changing a battery is a hassle, but thankfully there are how to videos. And you’re right it saves a lot of money. Newer cars, like phones would be intimidating to work on. I’m trying to do research into a solar battery system, but that’s even more of a project.
Loove how-to creators! I've fixed so many things thanks to people who create that kinda content.
And wow that sounds like an interesting and big project. Wish you luck on that project and hope you also get to have some fun with it.
