Cue Men At Work’s “Who Can It Be Now”…
I hate to jump to conclusions, but I kind of suspect that new user vaanikapoor55555 might be just a spammer.
Heh.
Couldn’t he have infested ATMB? That part’s nothing but right-wing snowflakes whining about moderation - an ad spammer is a lot more interesting than their entitled asses.
Now that you mention it, I wonder why it was GQ exclusive? ATMB is the top forum in the list.
GQ has 237K threads, ATMB only 15K.
And he is still going. 102 threads when I made my post here, 138 threads as of right now.
Nah. That’s not spam; it’s a mantra.
Do that voodoo that you do so well.
How about HarleyQuinn?
Ehhhh.
A little too early to say.
HarleyQuinn = troll. Yes, indeed.
From that thread, “Septic” as a nickname for the annoying one, who is also completely a troll.
You all remember Annoyed – the doofus who can’t spell, can’t write, can’t think, and apparently gets his delusional political opinions from Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh. Well, he’s now dispensing automotive advice. IANAM, but this strikes me as somewhat dubious advice of the kind that is unintentionally humorous.
To put in perspective, you NEVER mix incompatible automotive coolant types, most notably the newer long-life formulations made with special colors to distinguish them from the old-style green stuff. The best-case scenario is that the modern formulation will lose its long-life properties and will need to be flushed and replaced much sooner, but there may be much worse consequences than that. Also, when diluting coolant that comes in concentrated form, manufacturers provide a specific dilution ratio and, from what I’ve seen, recommend using distilled water to prevent mineral contamination.
The advice provided by our resident ignoramus is that it doesn’t matter what coolant type you use, and the best thing, really, is not to use any at all: just stuff a garden hose into the radiator and turn on the tap. If it was good enough for the Model T, it’s surely good enough for a modern engine. I believe this approach to adding coolant was demonstrated in a number of early-1920s silent films, mostly of the slapstick variety, so it must be right. And don’t forget: vote Trump in 2020! #MAGA!
Of course plain water is fine, rust too! The fancy (expensive!) stuff is just a “narrative” being pushed by big coolant.
Yeah, I couldn’t resist tagging him with that.. I’m wondering if he’s a returning troll, though.
As a single post troll, I can’t help but presume sock.
You are a laughable moron with absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. Yes, you can put straight water in your OVERFLOW tank in a pinch, which is what I said. WATER and PRESSURE are what keeps your engine cool and raises the boiling point. Ethylene Glycol keeps your engine coolant from freezing. Thats the green stuff.
We are talking bout a jeep thats almost 20 years old with a low OVERFLOW reservoir, not radiator, you fucking fool. You honestly think topping up a couple of fluid ounces of water or off-brand coolant is gonna immediately turn your cooling system into peanut butter? No, its not. And certainly not until you can get around to draining your radiator and dropping in your coolant of choice.
Just because you dislike my politics doesnt mean im a troll who’s dispensing bad info.
Ill bet the automotive knowledge you have comes from google or the back of a chitons manual you bought from auto zone, and clearly you do not understand how cooling systems work or what the purpose of anti-freeze is.
That explains your knowledge if you get your info from a Chitons manual, you little insect.
Huh? Do you idiots seriously not understand how words work?
Never mind, running coach. I’m pretty sure most of us saw what you did there.
even if a pejorative reference to ancient Greece might have been more apropos. The exoskeleton usage is spelled chitin.
Chiltons.
