Couple of highly technical questions.

[Jerryl]

I have a few questions but too lazy to use the search function or google.
Just like many threads, I figure if I ask here, someone will search and spoon feed me the answers.

What does it mean when the car has no fuel pressure and how do I measure that?

There is a coolant leak at the lower hose pump, and wondering if its ok to tighten the clamp? How tight is tight enough on the clamp?

Also, one tire also keeps going flat. Why is that happening and what should I do?

How complicated is it to change the spare tire? Should I put air in it?

This is obviously a joke...... I hope. If not be prepared for the backlash

you likely have a small leak in the tire. could be a nail or screw or small puncture in the tire. could also be corrosion built between the rim and tire allowing air to escape at a very slow rate. or the rubber valve is deteriorated, and allowing air to escape from there. whatever the case may be you can take it to a discount tire and they can check it out and fix the issue. If you do go, go to the one on West Airport and Highway 6 and ask for a gentlemen named Preston to work on it for you. He's the absolute best in the business.

Rule of thumb is if the tire is 10 years old, throw it away. It's really unsafe to be on a tire that old. You could get a new one in that exact size for relatively cheap

Don't worry about flat tires, they are only flat on the bottom.

Thanks guys. I also don't want to drive faster than 55 mph on the freeway. How do I do that? Is it ok to only press the pedal enough to go 55 and will that damage the tires?

There are people moving to the desert that have no business doing so.

Sometimes I need a reminder.
There is a big difference between weak, striving, wrong, . . . . And lazy. Lol

Don't we all! The quote in your Sig is powerful & compelling, I try to remind myself of it as an electrician working with millennial apprentices, what we mistake as lazy often is just a case of we don't know what we don't know. I fail a lot and end up spouting off too
