Mufflers and Tailpipes
Mufflers and tailpipes are components of an exhaust system. The tailpipes guide the exhaust away from the engine and into the muffler. The muffler reduces the noise coming from the engine through the tailpipe.

Is it ok to ride a Yamaha blaster without the back half of the exhaust pipe?
it will run, but the removal of exhaust components can result in a decrease in the system back pressure. That can cause a problem with proformance, and may lead to problems with the motor. It is a matter of making sure the amount of air going into the motor and out are right. If you are going to take it off, check to see if the air in is okay to the air out. it probably won't cause a problem, but thought you know that they can happen. hope it helps. duboff
What causes a car battery to not work?
Answer 1:
A short in your electrical system could be causing the battery to drain.
A bad cell in you battery could also be the cause. Go to your local parts store and see if they "load test" batteries. This will let you know if the battery is any good.
Answer 2:
A typical car battery is made out of Lead, Lead Oxide and an acidic solution of water and sulphuric acid.
When the battery is used, discharging and recharging, there will be particles formed that due to gravity will drop down and form an increasing layer of conducting material at the bottom.
With use, the cells will eventually shortcut due to this layer building up and "touching" the plates of lead/lead oxide.

Can you use Flowmaster Mufflers on 4 cylinder cars?
As far as I know, Flowmaster does not make exhaust systems for 4 cylinder cars. There are even some 6 cylinder trucks that Flowmaster does not have exhausts for. However, you can go to the Flowmaster web site and search for your particular vehicle to see what products are available for your car/truck.
How can you tell if you need a new slave cylinder?
Typical problems related to a worn slave cylinder may include 1. Difficulty shifting in and/or out of gears. 2. Cluth pedal feels soft. 3. Clutch may stay engaged even after it is depressed. 4. The problems mentioned above are very rarely consistant 5. Since many cars use the brake master cylinder to feed hydraulic fluid to the clutch, brake pedal may also feel soft.
White smoke is a symptom of coolant entering the combustion chamber. You more then likely have a blown head gasket. STOP driving this car until you can have this repaired or you will destroy the engine.
