Rinse with a cloth moistened with clear water and wipe dry. But with drought conditions in the West, the lake currently holds about 3.5 trillion gallons (13.2 trillion liters) of water. He holds the record for regular season scoring average with a mammoth 30.12 PPG, as well as the playoff record with an astonishing 33.45 PPG. That certainly holds true for the last tool on our list — an extension pole. So why is it also a go-to tool for NASCAR crews? Since NASCAR rules specify how many people can come over the pit wall to work on a car during a race, crews use extension poles to perform some of the needed maintenance from behind the wall. It’s pretty much an upside-down jug with a long spout that the gas man carries over the pit wall, directly to the car. In trying to keep up with emissions and fuel efficiency laws, the fuel system used in modern cars has changed a lot over the years. Crews will even use duct tape to block or redirect airflow to various parts of the grille to keep the engine running at peak efficiency. Otherwise I should probably have jeopardized the only and immediate practical use which my lectures can have here, and which I believe to be this: that the conviction may spread and take root everywhere, that hygiene has been neglected until now, practically as well as theoretically, and that this neglect is a dark spot on our civilization, which has to be removed by this generation This conviction begins just now to lay hold of ever-widening circles of society, and a certain sympathy is stirring for the interests of public health, much more than formerly.

Furthermore, the overload of stimuli and the erosion of protective factors in cities can make individuals more vulnerable to mental health problems. Larger and heavier dust and dirt particles in the air cannot make the turn due to their inertia, so they fall into the oil and settle to the bottom of the base bowl. It can also be used to make quick fixes to hoses and loose or hanging wires. Seltzer water’s biting bubbles are all created artificially, but they have no other added ingredients save for natural flavorings of some sort (which has created intermittent uproar in recent years – as La Croix can tell you). The piano bars are a basic, almost failsafe tool because there are no moving parts to break and they use the basic principle of leverage to overcome the weight of the car. Step 1: Use the compass to draw a 5-inch-diameter circle on a paper plate, and then cut it out. When a NASCAR car gets a big dent that affects its racing performanc­e, crews get out hammers, baseball bats and saws for a quick fix.

That’s what we’re going to talk about next, so get out your graph paper. It doesn’t get much more basic than that; however, extension poles are a key tool in the pit crew’s toolbox. They are native throughout the tropics, though some species are indigenous to the temperate regions of southwest Asia and the Mediterranean region. AIR does not provide direct access to native GUI elements such as navigation bars or controls. Don’t stop now; go to the next page to access more HowStuffWorks top-10 and top-5 lists. But as the automobile evolved, the carburetor got more and more complicated trying to handle all of the operating requirements. It is highly durable and can handle a lot of weight. Lift the jars vertically, being careful not to tilt them, as this can cause the food inside to interfere with the seal of the lid. The first type of wax arch uses a system of foam applicators, the most common being a triple-foam applicator, to apply a foam wax. They finished the job after 3pm. Cliff took some before and after pictures of the ducts, gaps that he caulked and the register boxes; he recommended air filter type. ­As awesome as it is at pretty much everything (repairing prom dresses included), sometimes duct tape just isn’t enough for the job.

NASCAR teams use duct tape to adjust body panels on the car to improve downforce — no, we’re not kidding about that — or just simply to hold parts together until the end of the race. For these reasons, fuel and fuel strategy is on every NASCAR team member’s mind on race day. It seems a little strange that crews would spend all week building a high-tech, precision racing machine — one that’s monitored by satellites and thousands of dollars of computer equipment — only to lay into it with baseball bats on race day. That’s why NASCAR crews prefer it for larger body repairs. Crews use signs on the end of an extension pole to signal their driver into the correct pit area. These panels can theoretically create a closed grid — a building that can generate and use its own electricity. As any failed do-it-yourself homeowner or mechanic can tell you, the reason anyone uses duct tape is because it’s quick and easy to use.
