Fuel tank toolbox combo

🚗 Just generated a comprehensive mind map on the components of a car's frame! 🛠️ Is there anything I missed?

The Components of the Car Frame

we bought the car recently but it had been sitting for 6 months prior. we were able to get it started but not drive, we had to get it towed to our house where we where able to get it to start and drive for a short time. but then after working on it it suddenly just stopped turning over at all the starter wouldn't click
we think it's a bad fuel pump and we think there might be a wiring issue. some issues we were having was when we were putting it into gear it would stall out. before we bought the car, it would run but stall if the engine got to hot.
we had problems with power so we replaced the battery, we changed the spark plugs, we put seafoam in the gas tank, changed the air filter, put in a new fuel filter, changed the fuel regulator and replaced a melted wire plug at the battery (shown in photos).
anyone have experience with Buick Century's and have the same problems? any suggestions?

The God-Snail, sitting atop its magnificent golden shell, rules over the galaxy with a sluggish yet undeniable authority. Its followers, the War Thunder nations, are locked in an eternal struggle for dominance, each vying to be the Snail's favorite and receive its coveted "Slow and Steady" blessing.
In this wacky universe, the British Empire, with their love for tea and impeccable manners, fields an army of mighty Spitfires armed with teacup cannons. The Germans, renowned for their engineering prowess, deploy tanks with oversized sauerkraut launchers, causing the enemy to be assaulted by the pungent smell of fermented cabbage.
The Russian nation, fueled by an insatiable love for vodka, sends forth hordes of T-34s equipped with special "Comrade Commissar" modules that offer motivational speeches to their crew members. Meanwhile, the Americans bring their "Freedom Fighters," a group of patriotic pilots armed with burgers and hotdogs, ready to defend their homeland at all costs.
Not to be outdone, the Japanese bring their mighty Zero Fighters adorned with vibrant anime decals, unleashing the power of "Kawaii" upon their enemies. And let's not forget the Italians, with their love for style and pasta, who send out tanks armed with spaghetti cannons, entangling their foes in a deliciously tangled mess.
As the battles rage on, the War Thunder nations discover strange artifacts scattered across the galaxy. They stumble upon "Gaijinium," a rare resource that grants immense power but also brings forth countless bugs and glitches. As they harness the power of Gaijinium, tanks start flying, planes start swimming, and soldiers start breakdancing mid-battle, creating chaos and laughter in equal measure.
To secure it, the God-Snail deploys its one final weapon—the Space Snails chapters. These intrepid mollusks, clad in their shimmering and slimy power armor, venture forth into the cosmos, leaving trails of slime in their wake.
Hailing from the distant planet of Escargot Prime, the Space Snails are an eccentric bunch. They have adopted the fighting spirit and resilience of their brethren but with a twist of cosmic absurdity. Their armor is adorned with vibrant colors and intricate shell patterns, making them the most stylish warriors in the galaxy. Among the principal chapters of Space Snails there are the Ultrasnails, the Slime Angels, the Slime Ravens, the Space Frenchies, the Imperial Shells, the Black Sluggers, the White Salts.
Unlike their fast-paced counterparts, the Space Snails adopt a leisurely approach to battle. Moving at a snail's pace, quite literally, they navigate the treacherous void of space with their specialized jetpacks, propelled by the sheer force of their slime. It may take them a while to reach their destination, but rest assured, they always get there eventually.
Their battle tactics are equally unconventional. When faced with enemy forces, the Space Snails unleash a barrage of highly corrosive slime projectiles, dissolving their adversaries' armor and leaving them in a sticky mess. They also possess an uncanny ability to retreat into their shells, providing them with unparalleled defense against incoming attacks. It's a sight to behold—squadrons of armored snails curling up into their shells, impervious to harm.
But it's not just their slimy prowess that sets the Space Snails apart. They have an uncanny knack for diplomacy and negotiation. With their charming demeanor and a subtle trail of slime leading the way, they can defuse tense situations and bring about peaceful resolutions. It's said that even the most fearsome of adversaries find it hard to resist the adorable nature of a Space Snail extending a slime-covered pseudopod for a handshake.
In their pursuit of galactic harmony, the Space Snails have also developed a deep affinity for cosmic gastronomy. Their rations include the finest space lettuce and gourmet space algae, ensuring that even in the midst of battle, they never compromise on culinary delights. Their love for gastronomic indulgence has earned them a reputation as interstellar gourmands, organizing grand feasts on conquered planets, complete with slime-infused delicacies.
So, beware, for the Space Snails may seem slow and whimsical, but they possess a tenacity and charm that cannot be underestimated. With their slime-infused weapons, shell-bound defense, and uncanny negotiation skills, they navigate the cosmos with a sense of adventure and humor that sets them apart from their more serious counterparts.
In WarHammer 40,000, the Space Snails chapter adds a touch of whimsy and lightheartedness to the grim darkness of the far future. Their presence reminds us that even in the harshest of battles, there is always room for laughter, camaraderie, and the unexpected sight of armored snails conquering the stars, one slime trail at a time.
Amidst the absurdity, the God-Snail looks down upon its creations with a slow, approving nod. For in War Thunder 40,000, it's not about winning or losing; it's about having a good laugh and embracing the joy of gaming. And so, the battle rages on, with nations clashing, tanks exploding, and laughter echoing through the cosmos.
Remember, in War Thunder 40,000, the only thing that truly matters is the shared experience, the camaraderie among players, and the joy of seeing your enemies get blown up by a tank firing sauerkraut. So, strap in, grab your virtual joystick, and prepare for an adventure that will leave you rolling on the floor with laughter!
(text made with ChatGPT, I just invented the names of the chapters because the AI kept writing about the Space Marines of the Ultrasnails; if you like extreme metal, listen to the band Slugdge for a soundtrack to this, particularly the albums Gastronomicon and Esoteric Malacology; for some reason the normal subreddit instantly auto-removed the post)

Fire Extinguisher rule reads as follows
One USCG-approved B-1 type fire extinguisher is required for all recreational motorboats except outboard-powered motorboats less than 26 feet long if constructed in a manner that will not allow gas fumes to accumulate. If your boat has a built-in fuel tank, an inboard engine, compartments where portable fuel tanks may be stored, or open areas between the hull and deck where flammable or explosive gases could accumulate, you must carry a fire extinguisher. Non-motorized boats are exempt from the fire extinguisher requirements.

DRAG RACE!
Chronologica struts the runway wearing a cosplay of Twilight Sparkle, from my little pony.
Neigh!
Welcome to Drag Race.
Pot O’Pyrite, welcome back to the show!
“Pleasure to be back.” Pyrite grins.
Rachelle, Floss, what festival would YOU host?
“Ballroom, baby.”
“KAKITIKA KITI KA KA, OW!!!” Floss chants.
Rachelle blinks.
For our Challenge, our racers were tasked with curating their own festivals.
And on the runway, they’ll be wearing Carnival Couture looks.
It’s TIME!
~
Category is… Carnival Couture.
Dressed as the circus tent itself, Aguacate steps out in a full length, red and white striped gown. She herself is the ringleader, with a cane, top hat, and thin black mustache. At the end of the runway, she opens up her tent and invites everyone to come inside her circus!
She’s wide open.
Zazu Nova arrives in a fitted bodysuit adorned with fluffy cotton candy-like trim in a pastel pink shade, with a plunging neckline and cutouts on the sides and back. To complement the cotton candy theme, a wig made of fluffy curly pastel pink hair, decorated with cotton candy-like ornaments, sparkling glitter, and glossy lips, complete the look with a smiling Zazu.
“I’m hungry.” Floss laughs.
Yasmin struts out in a preppy white cricket player’s uniform, with white trousers, a shirt, and a knit jumper, and swings a cricket bat enthusiastically. As she finishes her swing, white Carnival feathers swoop out dramatically into wide decorative plumage, presenting the perfect combo of cricket and carnival, representative of Guyana’s Mashramani Festival.
“Ooooh….” Pyrite gasps.
In a huge plumed look in green, with a massive headdress and glistening jewels all over her body, Granny Gorgeous is ready for the festival, baby! She sambas and dances as she twirls through the stage, serving Brazilian Carnival.
“Dance, bitch!” Floss cheers.
Referencing the Italian Commedia dell'arte movement, Fiore Stravaganza enters with a face mask and a jester look, in a satin style with huge puffy sleeves. She takes off her mask to reveal a painted clown face with a smile.
“Oh, I love a Commedia dell'arte reference.” Pyrite smirks.
Jaslene Bangus has become a big top! She is a big red striped big top tent, wearing a gorgeous little mini dress that twirls along with her as she walks through the stage, with fluffy red hair and a smile upon her face.
Brittany’s back?
Showcasing a look for the Mombasa Carnival, King Omari Star wears a look of bright yellows, orange and greens, with a huge headpiece like a bird, and a bare chest that is covered in various chains. He’s got a massive cape that flows as he walks, and a huge smile.
“Cape King.” Rachelle moans.

Hi Racers.
This week, nobody is safe.
Starting with… Aguacate and Granny.
The two grin.
You were a chaotic duo.
“Me?” Aguacate gasps. “Chaotic?!”
And I loved it. It was fun, it was entertaining- you delivered here, and I really was happy with it.
“I had such a fun time with this.” Granny smiles. “It was a pleasure.”
Great job, the both of you.
The two grin.
Fiore and Jaslene.
The two look at each other and smile.
“I feel like this was off.” Pyrite purses his lips. “For me, it was just a crappy concept.”
Fiore sighs, visibly displeased.
“I feel as if you were just- not doing enough. Your festival, for me- it wasn’t FUN. I needed fun.” Pyrite responds.
“I do- I did enjoy this.” Jaslene smiles. “And I really enjoyed our concept, and I did think I was having fun but I get the critiques.”
Fiore Stravaganza: “I wasn’t, but werk.”
Fiore shrugs.
Next up, Crayola and Yasmin.
The two look at Chronologica.
“For me…” Floss smiles. “You two really shined tonight.”
“Woo!” Yasmin cheers. “Fantabulous.”
Floss beams. “For me, you were here, you were delivering, you had fun- the two of you, and I was most interested in your festival.”
“Thank you.” Yasmin tears up.
“You have a natural charisma- Yasmin. And this week, you embraced what we needed, Crayola. I’m proud of you both.”
Finally, Omari and Zazu.
Omari stands tall, whilst Zazu smiles.
“I think the reality is you seem… off kilter.” Rachelle says. “And yes, it was a team challenge, but the reality was Omari- you were the weaker link.”
Omari looks frustrated, as the others look at him.
…
Fiore.
Jaslene.
Aguacate.
Granny.
You are… Safe. You may untuck in the platinum lounge.
The four look surprised.
Omari, Zazu, Crayola & Yasmin. Please stand on stage for further critique.
~
Fiore, Jaslene, Granny and Aguacate enter the werkroom.
“Safety!” Aguacate chuckles, grabbing her drink.
Fiore grabs a cocktail. “Yay.”
The four sit down.
“This was interesting.” Granny says.
Aguacate takes a sip of her drink and nods. "Definitely interesting. I didn't expect Omari and Zazu to end up in the bottom. They're usually strong competitors. I mean, Omari is. Zazu is pretty, though." Aguacate giggles.
Fiore rolls her eyes. "Pretty ugly maybe. Well, I'm not surprised. Omari has been struggling lately, and Zazu is just… fat to cut at this point. They deserved to be in the bottom."
“Omari seemed… pissed.” Jaslene adds.
“Oh, he was MAD.” Aguacate giggles.
Fiore takes a sip of her cocktail. "Well, it's about time Omari was challenged. I feel like he’s been coasting, so…”
Jaslene nods, taking out her hand to hold Fiore, who shakes her head. “I’m good.”
Jaslene frowns.
Granny sighs and shakes her head. "I don't like seeing anyone upset, darlings. Drag Race is a tough competition, and emotions can run high. Let's hope they both handle it with grace."
Fiore giggles, before sipping her drink.
Aguacate chuckles. "Fiore, always a tough critic. But hey, it's part of what makes you fierce.”
“Exactly.” Fiore nods. “I'm simply stating the facts. Drag Race is not a place for weak links, and I have no patience for those who can't keep up."
Jaslene Bangus: “Fiore isn’t talking about me, is it? Out of nowhere, she’s suddenly acting… colder.”
"So, what do we think about the upcoming lip sync? Any predictions?" Granny smiles.
Granny raises an eyebrow. "Hmm, it's hard to say. Both Omari and Zazu are fierce performers. I wouldn't be surprised if they bring the house down."
Aguacate smirks. "I have a feeling Omari is going to fight tooth and nail to stay. He's got that fire in him. It'll be an intense lip sync."
Jaslene nods. "Yeah, I can see that. But Zazu is no slouch either. She knows how to captivate an audience. It'll be a battle of fierce personalities."
“I think Omari is going to decimate that girl verbally.” Fiore adds. “I see them fighting.”
“Oh, they’ve already fought before, and..” Granny sighs.
Jaslene shrugs. “I mean, I just hope I’m in the room when it happens.”
Fiore smirks.
“Okay, let’s get drunk!” Aguacate yells, grabbing shot glasses. “TEQUILA!”
~
I want to talk further, and really analyze your performances.
Starting with… Crayola.
Crayola grins.
“I am really happy to have seen you going outside of your shell.” Rachelle nods. “Really commendable.”
“Thank you.” Crayola nods with a grin.
“You played the part of the straight man, and I think that was a fun choice.” Rachelle purses her lips. “But it did mean Yasmin was the more BRIGHT personality.”
Crayola nods.
Zazu.
“Hiya!” Zazu smiles.
I really do like your energy, Zazu. I feel like it’s a real positive and bright energy.
Zazu grins.
But I do want you to keep PUSHING yourself. I need a little more, and I do feel as if yes, you were in many ways brought down by your partner…
Omari looks over.
But, alternatively you struggled and have been struggling. I just… want to see you push it.
Zazu nods.
Yasmin.
Yasmin grins.
“It was a pleasure seeing you this week.” Pyrite says with a grin. “You were charming, you were fun, you were the highlight for me.”
Crayola looks over.
“Wow, I am so ever so pleased.” Yasmin beams.
“It was just- a simply put, masterclass in hosting.” Pyrite nods. “Well done.”
“Thank you.” Yasmin nods.
Omari.
“Baby.” Floss sighs. “This was a disappointing week, for me.”
“Okay.” Omari says. “I can see that.”
“You just- I saw you trying, but it didn’t come across authentic. I was wanting you to loosen up. Did you come up with this concept?” Floss asks.
King Omari Star: “Part of me wants to decimate Zazu on the stage. But…”
“It was a team effort.” Omari responds. “And I want to take accountability for MY performance- because yes, I didn’t meet the mark.”
Floss nods. “I want to see you shine, baby. You’re here to fight. Show it, but let yourself roll with these punches.”
Omari looks down and nods. “Thank you.”
Thanks, racers. Whilst we deliberate, you may untuck backstage in the Crystal Lounge, sponsored by Princess Papaya Tropical Drinks.
~
The four enter the Crystal lounge.
“Where’s my fabulous drink?” Yasmin smiles, grabbing her non-alcoholic drink.
The four sit down.
“So….” Crayola purses her lips. “How do we think we’re placing?”
“Clearly, we’re in the bottom.” Omari looks over at Zazu.
Zazu looks nervously for a second, before nodding.
“How do you feel about that, Omari?” Yasmin asks.
Yasmin Raiz: “He’s… a strong character. And I expect him to probably go at Zazu. I mean, Zazu looks it.”
Zazu looks at Omari.
Omari takes a deep breath and looks directly at Zazu. "I've been doing a lot of thinking lately. These… critiques." Omari begins. "And I realize that instead of being angry and frustrated, I should be using this opportunity to learn and grow. We're both here because we love drag, and we want to show the world what we're capable of. So, instead of dwelling on our flaws, let's embrace them and use them as fuel to give the performance of our lives in the lip sync."
Zazu's eyes widen in surprise, both she nods.
"You're right, Omari. Let's show them the fire that burns within us and give them a lip sync they'll never forget!" Zazu smiles. “I know we didn’t work it out, this week-”
“And I know that is a lot due to myself.” Omari nods. “So I own that.”
“It was me too.” Zazu responds. “But we’re both performers.”
“I live for the stage.” Omari lights up. “And it’s not something I fear, it’s an opportunity.”
“I think the same.” Zazu nods.
"Absolutely! You two have incredible talent, and I have no doubt that you can deliver an unforgettable performance. Just remember, it's not about being perfect; it's about showing your passion and giving it your all." Yasmin responds with a bright grin.
"I've been worried about this challenge, but seeing you two find strength in each other has inspired me. We're all in this together, and we can lift each other up." Crayola adds.
The others walk in, as the four look at each other.
“Oh, not a fight.” Jaslene chuckles.
“Why, were you worried?” Yasmin asks.
“Should we go prepare?” Omari looks at Zazu, who nods.
“I think it’ll be judged individually, and I am so happy to be here, but… I don’t feel like I did as good as you! You just have that… more crowd pleasing personality.” Crayola says with a smile.
Yasmin makes a face, before nodding.
Yasmin Raiz: “Is she shading myself?”
“I mean that with love, my dear.” Crayola adds. “You did fantastic.”
“Thanks.” Yasmin grins.
“Crayola, you really do remind me of what people think of teachers.” Jaslene smiles.
“Thank you.” Crayola grins.
Jaslene smirks.
Zazu turns to Omari with a smile. “Can we hug?”
Omari looks at Zazu. “...Do we have to?”
“We don’t.” Zazu chuckles. “I just want to fight here. Because… I do want this.” Zazu tears up. “My journey here has been challenging, but I love to perform. I love delivering these looks and you know, I see I am doing bad. But my parents- and my drag family, I know they have faith in me.”
“I think you’re a talent.” Omari responds, before exhaling. “I love drag with all my heart, and I want to show the world the passion that drives me. This lip sync is not just about staying in the competition; it's about reclaiming my power and reminding myself why I fell in love with drag in the first place."
“Heck yeah.” Zazu grins.
~
Welcome back, racers. I’ve made my decision.
Crayola Boxx, this week, you worked hard, and brought the spice.
Yasmin, we’re eating YOU UP!
Condragulations, you are BOTH the winner of this week’s challenge.
They smile, with Crayola looking particularly surprised.
Yasmin Raiz: “My WIN!!!” Yasmin cheers.
That means Zazu Nova and King Omari Star, I’m sorry my dears, but you are up for elimination.
The two look at each other.
The time has come… for you to lip sync to your life!
**Livin’ La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin starts to play**
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CN5hQOI\_\_10
Good luck… and don’t fuck it up!
Zazu Nova: “I know this is another week in the bottom. But I love to perform. This is my heart and soul, and I’m going to show it.”
King Omari Star: “It’s time to live La Vida Loca, baby.” Omari smirks.
~
Next Time!
“Racers, it’s time for an IMPROV CHALLENGE!” Rachelle Mirage cheers.
Aguacate gasps.
“I’m stuck in this house…” Granny looks around.
Fiore Stravaganza: “Real talk, it’s time we’re over.”
“A.E Girls?” Jaslene winks.
“Meh.” Fiore responds.

Spreadsheet

Okay this is just my take at this but as we all know 94.5 is completely busted. Not to the same extent as Gas shells (absolute nightmare fuel) but getting close there. Currently it deals 1750 damage, my idea is that it should deal for a example 1000 damage [or like 1200 in devbranch, only for the STD this applies though], the SHT and Starbreaker can have s high velocity gun as they are balanced (SHT is extremely expensive so high damage is needed as if it was 1200 it would just be a joke and Starbreaker is just a emplacement and cant move unlike the two controversial vehicles STD and Stygian.) STD is balanced (i guess? i dont see the point of giving it a nerf as the Stygian is still with a normal barrel and not with a low velocity one and its still cheep and in the new update it might just be a BT or anything might just be one as it will take 5 shots to kill a Stygian with a STD as its damage was reduced in the new update by 31% and the STD can only take 2 before exploding [its quite likely the BTD without any of the benefits of it]. Honestly i would just give it a speed nerf as that this is way too fast). Stygian, is not balanced at all, it way too cheep (80 ish rmats for the power to delete tanks instantly in 2 shots [still deals 1750 even in the new upcoming update]) and its a nightmare to fight in the night and day even when not pushing and playing defensively when you try to chase off a enemy tank and you go 0.000000001 meters too far, even worse are blizzards as you cant see the muzzle flash neither the smoke and they are small enough to hide in the bushes. I guess adding a light would fix it so it will be more visible during those times when it happens. (since 50% of the time in game is night it would be okay and it still could be stealthy when the guy who pushes the gun jumps out but leaving to exposed as it will not be able to move until they get back on [there could be like a 1 or 1.5 seconds delay before the lights turn off or like a little time before you can move again to prevent spam of it]) These are my ideas any post your down here if you wish to.
edit.: forgot about the BTD and its falls to the same category as SHT and Starbreaker, also doom turtle funny

“Hiya!” Zazu smiles.
I really do like your energy, Zazu. I feel like it’s a real positive and bright energy.
Zazu grins.
But I do want you to keep PUSHING yourself. I need a little more, and I do feel as if yes, you were in many ways brought down by your partner…
Omari looks over.
But, alternatively you struggled and have been struggling. I just… want to see you push it.
Zazu nods.
Yasmin.
Yasmin grins.
“It was a pleasure seeing you this week.” Pyrite says with a grin. “You were charming, you were fun, you were the highlight for me.”
Crayola looks over.
“Wow, I am so ever so pleased.” Yasmin beams.
“It was just- a simply put, masterclass in hosting.” Pyrite nods. “Well done.”
“Thank you.” Yasmin nods.
Omari.
“Baby.” Floss sighs. “This was a disappointing week, for me.”
“Okay.” Omari says. “I can see that.”
“You just- I saw you trying, but it didn’t come across authentic. I was wanting you to loosen up. Did you come up with this concept?” Floss asks.
King Omari Star: “Part of me wants to decimate Zazu on the stage. But…”
“It was a team effort.” Omari responds. “And I want to take accountability for MY performance- because yes, I didn’t meet the mark.”
Floss nods. “I want to see you shine, baby. You’re here to fight. Show it, but let yourself roll with these punches.”
Omari looks down and nods. “Thank you.”
Thanks, racers. Whilst we deliberate, you may untuck backstage in the Crystal Lounge, sponsored by Princess Papaya Tropical Drinks.

The four enter the Crystal lounge.
“Where’s my fabulous drink?” Yasmin smiles, grabbing her non-alcoholic drink.
The four sit down.
“So….” Crayola purses her lips. “How do we think we’re placing?”
“Clearly, we’re in the bottom.” Omari looks over at Zazu.
Zazu looks nervously for a second, before nodding.
“How do you feel about that, Omari?” Yasmin asks.
Yasmin Raiz: “He’s… a strong character. And I expect him to probably go at Zazu. I mean, Zazu looks it.”
Zazu looks at Omari.
Omari takes a deep breath and looks directly at Zazu. "I've been doing a lot of thinking lately. These… critiques." Omari begins. "And I realize that instead of being angry and frustrated, I should be using this opportunity to learn and grow. We're both here because we love drag, and we want to show the world what we're capable of. So, instead of dwelling on our flaws, let's embrace them and use them as fuel to give the performance of our lives in the lip sync."
Zazu's eyes widen in surprise, both she nods.
"You're right, Omari. Let's show them the fire that burns within us and give them a lip sync they'll never forget!" Zazu smiles. “I know we didn’t work it out, this week-”
“And I know that is a lot due to myself.” Omari nods. “So I own that.”
“It was me too.” Zazu responds. “But we’re both performers.”
“I live for the stage.” Omari lights up. “And it’s not something I fear, it’s an opportunity.”
“I think the same.” Zazu nods.
"Absolutely! You two have incredible talent, and I have no doubt that you can deliver an unforgettable performance. Just remember, it's not about being perfect; it's about showing your passion and giving it your all." Yasmin responds with a bright grin.
"I've been worried about this challenge, but seeing you two find strength in each other has inspired me. We're all in this together, and we can lift each other up." Crayola adds.
The others walk in, as the four look at each other.
“Oh, not a fight.” Jaslene chuckles.
“Why, were you worried?” Yasmin asks.
“Should we go prepare?” Omari looks at Zazu, who nods.
“I think it’ll be judged individually, and I am so happy to be here, but… I don’t feel like I did as good as you! You just have that… more crowd pleasing personality.” Crayola says with a smile.
Yasmin makes a face, before nodding.
Yasmin Raiz: “Is she shading myself?”
“I mean that with love, my dear.” Crayola adds. “You did fantastic.”
“Thanks.” Yasmin grins.
“Crayola, you really do remind me of what people think of teachers.” Jaslene smiles.
“Thank you.” Crayola grins.
Jaslene smirks.
Zazu turns to Omari with a smile. “Can we hug?”
Omari looks at Zazu. “...Do we have to?”
“We don’t.” Zazu chuckles. “I just want to fight here. Because… I do want this.” Zazu tears up. “My journey here has been challenging, but I love to perform. I love delivering these looks and you know, I see I am doing bad. But my parents- and my drag family, I know they have faith in me.”
“I think you’re a talent.” Omari responds, before exhaling. “I love drag with all my heart, and I want to show the world the passion that drives me. This lip sync is not just about staying in the competition; it's about reclaiming my power and reminding myself why I fell in love with drag in the first place."
“Heck yeah.” Zazu grins.

Welcome back, racers. I’ve made my decision.
Crayola Boxx, this week, you worked hard, and brought the spice.
Yasmin, we’re eating YOU UP!
Condragulations, you are BOTH the winner of this week’s challenge.
They smile, with Crayola looking particularly surprised.
Yasmin Raiz: “My WIN!!!” Yasmin cheers.
That means Zazu Nova and King Omari Star, I’m sorry my dears, but you are up for elimination.
The two look at each other.
The time has come… for you to lip sync to your life!
**Livin’ La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin starts to play**

Good luck… and don’t fuck it up!
Zazu Nova: “I know this is another week in the bottom. But I love to perform. This is my heart and soul, and I’m going to show it.”
King Omari Star: “It’s time to live La Vida Loca, baby.” Omari smirks.

Next Time!
“Racers, it’s time for an IMPROV CHALLENGE!” Rachelle Mirage cheers.
Aguacate gasps.
“I’m stuck in this house…” Granny looks around.
Fiore Stravaganza: “Real talk, it’s time we’re over.”
“A.E Girls?” Jaslene winks.
“Meh.” Fiore responds.

I have a 2007 Toyota Camry, if the fuel is low and i start it it puffs quite a bit of white smoke out of the exhaust, it will also do this when you take off from a stop sometimes, but once again, only with low fuel. It starts between a quarter to half tank of fuel, have no clue what could be causing this but would really like to get it figured out. Thank you

Is it possible to replace the rear lower control arms without dropping the fuel tank since the driver side lower is pretty close to the tank? Thanks!

I’m replacing my rear lower control arms today. Is it possible without dropping the fuel tank? Thanks?

I want a beginner bike & this was recommend to me based on the following requirements:

• reliable
  
• signature "bag of bolts" sounds
  
• dry clutch
  
• upright & comfortable riding position for 2 hours of riding at a time
  
• comfortable for 6 foot tall guy
  
• air cooled L twin engine
  
• great torque
  
• easy at home maintenance (belt cover, air filter, fuel pumps, spark plugs) with
  
• good mpg
  
• big enough gas tank for long distance cruising
  
• light & easy to maneuver.
  
• will hold value & not depreciate too much.
  

Overall, I want a great bike that I can keep for a long time.
Any other Ducati that matches these requirements?
Thank you!

So driving and my car just chugs down and stalls. Try to crank it over, cranks but won’t fire, let it sit for a while fires up then slowly dies again. So my guess is potentially fuel filter but I can’t seem to find one for the terraza. Do I need to replace the fuel pump in the tank or something along those lines? Any help would be greatly appreciated
