WITH THE CONDITIONER

O. SHIRYAEV, Kazan

Repairing the fuel system, I discovered a leak of gasoline from under the rubber rings that seal the injectors of the injection system. And with fuel, a well-known thing, jokes are bad. Where to get new rings? In the shops I contacted, they only offered to place an order and wait. The solution was unexpected: I found suitable rings in the service for servicing automobile air conditioners. They are strong enough and are not afraid of contact with petroleum products. The car has already run several tens of thousands of kilometers - without comment.

SILICONE BASED

G. KNYAZEV, Samara

The “visor” aerodynamic visors glued to the doors can fall off after some time. The reasons are varied - from violations of attachment technology to mechanical stresses, and this, in particular, the car’s own vibrations. I solved the problem like this. The edge of the visor along the entire line of contact with the door surface was covered with colorless silicone sealant - the procedure took an hour and a half or two. Then he left the car alone for several hours so that the sealant would freeze better. Visors glued with silicone have been holding securely for over two years. Due to its elasticity, the risk of peaks being torn off under the influence of vibrations is minimal. I think that tough adhesives in these conditions would have surrendered earlier.

GAS SUPPORT

The torsion bar trunk lid on the VAZ 2115 weakened from age so that it could fall on your head at any time. Popular tricks such as rearranging the ends of the return levers yielded nothing. Therefore, I put on the left side of the trunk gas emphasis, familiar to the owners of the Niva.

For smoother operation, I placed it with the stock down. The details of the operation are simple. Unscrewing the lower bolt securing the cover to the guide lever, screwed the stop in place, even the thread there was identical. Then, lifting the lid to the upper position, lowered it by five millimeters and marked the place for the mating support bracket. The hole was drilled in the flanging of the wing. Before final assembly, the metal is covered with anticorrosive. Now I look in the trunk without fear.

UNDER THE CAP

A. SHVETSOV, Perm

The most accessible versions of the most popular cars are most often equipped with steel wheels. Of course, they are painted and covered with decorative plastic caps, so that in the warm season they still somehow imitate well-being. But winter trips provoke lush flowering of corrosion. To maximize this distress, I recommend that on a new car, while there are no signs of rust, treat both sides of each disk with an anticorrosive agent. Of course, for this you have to remove the wheels, but it's worth it!

FREE CHEESE

M. LAGUTIN, Rostov-on-Don

Often, drivers are given free signs for advertising purposes: "If my car bothers you, call the number …". I noticed that many motorists are too lazy to remove these plates when they are not needed. But they give contact information to the whole world! Of course, the omnipresent villains who can use your phone number for criminal purposes are very interested in this data. For example, to claim a reward for returning stolen numbers or even a car. Think about it - do you need such a gift?
