Which engine Oil is the best for car engine especially in hot places?

When it comes to selecting the best engine oil for hot climates, it's important to look for oils with high viscosity index (VI) and thermal stability. High VI ensures that the oil maintains its lubrication properties even in high temperatures, while thermal stability prevents the oil from breaking down and forming deposits. Synthetic oils are typically the best choice for hot climates, as they have superior high-temperature performance compared to conventional mineral oils.

A good choice for hot climates would be an oil labelled as "full synthetic" with a viscosity grade of 5W-30 or 5W-40. These oils have been specifically formulated to maintain their viscosity in high temperatures and provide reliable protection for the engine, even under extreme conditions. Always consult with your vehicle's manufacturer or a trusted mechanic to determine the best engine oil for your specific make and model.

How often should you change the engine oil in a Honda City?

Maintaining optimal engine performance in your Honda City hinges on regular engine oil changes. Honda recommends changing the engine oil every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, but this can vary based on driving conditions and oil type. Regular oil changes ensure proper lubrication, cooling, and debris removal, preserving the engine’s longevity. Neglecting this essential maintenance can lead to increased friction, heat, and potential engine damage. To determine the ideal interval for your Honda City, consult the owner’s manual and consider factors like stop-and-go driving or towing, which may necessitate more frequent oil changes. Adhering to a consistent engine oil change schedule is a proactive measure to keep your Honda City running smoothly and prevent premature wear and tear.

Drive Me Crazy - Chapter 8.

Pairing Travis Kelce x Reader

Words 1391

Warnings Some angsty vibes here, but it's going to get better, I swear!

Huge thank you to the Anon who sent this in! They had such amazing words to say about my writing which I massively appreciate and then to top it off, had an incredible request for me! I only have experience with mechanics in the UK, so I’ve tried my best with this one! “I just recently got interested in Travis K. X reader stories and wanted to let you know, I read all of yours as quickly as I could. They are so well done and I couldn’t help but laugh/giggle and feel through each word you typed out. You’re doing amazing and I’m so glad to have stumbled onto your page. If you have any space for a request, I’d be curious about what Trav would think about having a military (like fighter pilot) or engineer or mechanic girlfriend. I see a lot of stories with him paired with models/singers/social media individuals (which are phenomenal!) but just wondering how he would be with a more tomboy like girlfriend!”

CHAPTER 7

CHAPTER 8

"Are you sure you're okay?"

You sighed, rolling your eyes, "Travis, I'm fine. I'm just tired."

He stared at you as thoroughly as he could through his phone screen. Faint wrinkles between his eyes deepened as his eyes narrowed. He hummed quietly before laying further back on his bed, his elbows elevating his torso, "Your Dad seemed pretty happy tonight."

You forced a smile, your chest still panging with hurt, "Yeah, thank you for doing all of this, he had a blast."

"And you?"

You paused, a little longer than you should've, "Yeah, it was great."

Luckily, Travis had rolled across the bed to grab the charger for his phone and didn't pick up on your disheartened expression, "I'm still pissed you wouldn't let the team doctor check you over."

"Travis, I really appreciate that you're concerned for me, I am. But honestly, it wasn't necessary."

He sucked his teeth and shook his head, "It's crazy though, there's gotta be a reason you passed out."

You avoided his gaze, adjusting the folds of your bedsheet.

"Anyway baby, I'm tired. I think I'm going to hit the hay, okay?"

Nodding your head gently, you could feel your body yearning to yawn, "Yeah, me too."

"But I'll call you in the morning?"

"Sure."

You watched as his eyes creased into a sweet smile, "G'night, babygirl."

Your stomach fluttered as his left eye quickly closed into a charming wink. It seemed travis had a talent for making you melt, no matter the situation.

"Goodnight, Travis."

The phone display returned to your home screen, a black and white photo of you and your Dad when you were younger. You must have been around 9 or 10 years old and were wearing one of his work t-shirts, splotches of grease and oil covering most of the fabric. He was leaning over the hood of his car and you were stood on a stool in front of him, holding a large tool in your tiny hand. You recognised his battered baseball cap adorning his head as one of your own now, something he gave you when you took on part of his business. 'A good luck charm', he said. Your chest swelled with love before melancholy set in. The opinions of other people had never bothered you in the past, especially the opinions of complete strangers. You had always been confident in yourself and you valued hard work and kindness over appearances. But now here you were, overthinking and distracted by the online comments of people you didn't know.

You laid back on your bed and stared up at the ceiling, shadows forming swirled patterns across the white paint. Taking a few deep breaths, you glanced across to the digital clock on your nightstand before feeling your eyelids droop lower and lower with each breath.

______________________________________________________________

Music blasted from the small radio you had perched on top of the exposed engine. Your head was buried under the hood, fingers tinkering at greased bolts and pipes as the sounds of the garage were overpowered by Whitney Houston.

"Y/N!" A deep voice yelled out from behind you.

Your body jerked as the noise disturbed your focus. Glancing over your shoulder, you noticed Jordan standing 20 yards or so away from you, his eyes avoiding yours.

"Yes?" You said impatiently, without changing your stance, a clear sign that you weren't interested in a lengthy conversation with him.

"I don't know if you're busy or..."

"Yeah, I am."

"Right." Jordan turned away for a second before spinning around and taking a few steps closer to you, "You know, it's just that it's obvious that other people think the same as I do."

You stood up straight, your shoulders tightening, "Excuse me?"

"I just don't think that you and Travis are a good match for each other." His feet were planted on the floor but his knees were twitching, his hands nervously fidgeting in his washed out denim jeans, "And I know I shouldn't have behaved the way I did the other night, but I was just in shock to see him there, you know? He's a pretty big deal, and you...you're just a-"

"Is this supposed to be an apology?"

Jordan sighed, his hands moving up to his temples, "I just think you would be better suited with someone else."

You laid down the spanner that you had been firmly gripping, the clang ringing out through the garage and capturing everyone's attention, "Someone else? Someone else like you, you mean?"

"Y/N, that's not what I'm saying-"

"What are you saying, then?

Jordan's gaze drifted to the floor, "I...I don't really know."

You took a step towards him, "Exactly. You don't know what you're saying. So, let me give you a clue. Who I date is none of your business, Jordan. It is actually none of yours, or anyone else's business."

You could see heads turning in your peripheral, but all that you could feel was the heat quickly rising in your chest and adrenaline speeding through your veins. Jordan stood with his mouth open, as if he was about to speak but even if he wanted to, you were reluctant to give him the chance.

"So, just...stay out of it, okay?" You waved your hand before rushing over to the bathroom, the wooden door slamming shut behind you.

Your shaking hands reached for the white basin, fingers gripping the smooth, cool, porcelain as you looked up into the mirror. You gritted your teeth as you attempted to hold your composure for a few seconds before you crumbled, tears travelling down your cheeks quickly. The clangs of the garage were muffled in the distance behind your occasional sobs, but you ran the tap just in case anyone could hear you.

Your reflection stared back at you, the skin under your eyes shiny from tears. As your breathing slowed and you took back control of your emotions, you grabbed your hair behind your head and tied it back with a small scrunchie that was snug on your wrist. Wiping your face, you inhaled deeply before a gentle knock on the bathroom door made you jump slightly.

"Uhh, there's someone in here." Your emotionally charged voice gurgled.

"It's Dad."

You looked around the small restroom, for nothing in particular, before flushing the toilet, "I'll just...I'll just be a minute." You called out, grabbing a hand towel and desperately dabbing your face.

There was a short moment of silence on the other side of the door as your Dad waited for the sound of rushing water to cease.

"He's gotten under your skin, hasn't he?"

"Jordan? I couldn't care less about what Jordan thinks." You tucked a piece of hair behind your ear and brushed down your overalls, "I don't-"

"I meant Travis."

You turned towards the door, your eyebrows furrowed.

"Forgive me for saying this, and I know I don't really know much about your dating life-" He let out a chuckle, "-but I've seen a change in you. A good change."

You reached for the door handle, "Really?"

"You seem happier." You could hear a smile in your Dad's voice, "Today aside, of course."

As you gently turned the handle and opened the door, his face came into view, his cheek pressed to the door frame, desperate to comfort you. You exhaled a smile as his eyes scanned your face, "I am happy."

"So, what's this?" He gestured to your eyes.

You shook your head, "It's stupid, really. I saw some comments on a picture of me and Travis online and then Jordan just-"

"And since when did you care what people thought?"

You blinked, "I don't."

Your Dad pushed the door open further and placed his hands on both of your shoulders, "So, what's the problem?"

You giggled, "I don't know."

"I think I know." He winked with a grin.

You lowered your brows again, your lips tightening into a coy smile.

"You like the guy!" He shook you gently, "And I don't blame you. But I have to be honest here, he's the lucky one to have you, sport."

You looked down at your feet, your cheeks flushing with red.

"So, fuck what everybody else thinks!"

"Daddy!" Your head snapped up, your eyes wide at your Dad's uncharacteristic cursing, which was something exclusively reserved for watching football games.

"Go get him."

How To Maintain Your Car By Yourself

Car maintenance needs effort and patience. One cannot just buy a car and use it day after day without cleaning it or properly servicing it. Your car also needs passion, care, and love. Hence, as a driver and car owner, you must know the basic rules of maintaining your car and its parts. If you are unable to follow the manual, you can search in the driving school online business directory in the UK and contact registered instructors from there. They will guide you on how to save money and perform some ‘do-it-yourself’ maintenance tips. 

DIY Tips for Your Car Maintenance

You have passed the test, and now the wide road lies in front of you. It's all yours. It's high time you make a note of different dates when your car needs servicing and maintenance. Before you go to the company showroom for full servicing, we suggest some essential maintenance tips. These can be done on your own, and you can avoid any faults from developing. Let's delve into the DIY processes to make it more interesting. 

Check the oil

Checking the oil frequently can help you avoid oil leakage or any kind of issue. You can check via minimum and maximum marking in the dipstick and decide when to fill the oil again. This is very effective and can be easily done at home. There are driving schools in Bradford and other regions in the UK that provide training on how to check your car at regular intervals if you take driving lessons from them. You can ask your instructor to show the prescribed level up to which you can fill the oil. 

Tyre

Have a look at the tyre pressure, as under-inflated tyres can cause the tyres to wear down quickly. It will also result in maximum fuel consumption (up to 5%). Check the inflation every two weeks and get your tyres inflated. However, do not over-inflate it as it might result in negative handling of the car. 

Keep an eye on the windscreen wash and battery

You can consult with instructors from online driving school in the UK and take a note of what they say. Check the windscreen to see if it is topped up during winter. Moreover, keep adequate fluid in the screen washer bottle. You might be penalised if the bottle is found empty on the road. 

As we speak of DIY processes, examining the battery is highly essential. As a driver, you need to know when to change it. Try to change the battery every three years, as a flat battery might cause a breakdown. Since you are checking on your own, know the process properly where the Green Flag says battery failure will turn over the engine slowly, and the red battery light will flicker. 

A Few Tips to Conclude

Taking care of your car must not be daunting for you. Keep the timing flexible, and try checking the parts and tools when you are ready for it. When you are in a hurry, it can ultimately result in improper maintenance. We would suggest checking the horn, brake, wipers, and coolant. Rotate the tyres and adjust them on a regular basis. 

Other complicated checks include spark plugs, light bulbs, and rattling sounds. Your car maintenance lies on you. Use decent car shampoos and clean them with water to make them look brand new every time you take them out.

Keep Your Car Running Smoothly: A Complete Guide to MOT Parts & Servicing

Your car's performance and safety rely on regular car maintenance and servicing. One of the most critical aspects of car ownership in the UK is ensuring your vehicle passes its annual MOT (Ministry of Transport) test. Equally important is addressing any issues uncovered during the test and maintaining your car’s key parts year-round.

What Is an MOT Test?

An MOT test is a mandatory annual inspection for vehicles over three years old in the UK, ensuring they meet road safety and environmental standards. During the test, trained technicians examine critical parts of your car, including:

Brakes and suspension

Lights and indicators

Tyres and wheels

Exhaust and emissions

Steering and seatbelts

Failing to pass an MOT test can render your car unroadworthy and result in penalties, so it’s essential to be prepared.

Why Regular Servicing Matters

While an MOT focuses on safety and legal compliance, servicing goes deeper into your car’s overall health. It ensures that all components work efficiently, helping you avoid breakdowns and costly repairs.

Benefits of Regular Servicing:

Improved Performance: A well-serviced car runs smoother and consumes less fuel.

Enhanced Safety: Identifying issues before they become serious ensures safer driving.

Higher Resale Value: A fully serviced car with a good MOT record attracts higher resale prices.

Key MOT Parts to Watch Out For

Brakes

Common Issues: Worn brake pads or discs.

Solution: Regular brake checks and replacement of worn components.

Tyres

Common Issues: Low tread depth or uneven wear.

Solution: Ensure tread depth is at least 1.6mm and tyres are properly inflated.

Lights

Common Issues: Faulty bulbs or misaligned headlights.

Solution: Regularly test and replace bulbs as needed.

Exhaust System

Common Issues: Leaks or excessive emissions.

Solution: Check for unusual noises and schedule emissions testing.

Steering & Suspension

Common Issues: Worn-out suspension or steering components.

Solution: Regular servicing can detect and fix these issues early.

What Happens During a Service?

A typical car service involves:

Oil and Filter Change: Ensures smooth engine operation.

Brake Checks: Assesses pad wear and hydraulic systems.

Fluid Top-Ups: Coolant, brake fluid, and windscreen washer levels are topped up.

Tyre Inspection: Checks pressure and condition.

Battery Testing: Ensures reliability and optimal performance.

Why Combine MOT and Servicing?

Combining your MOT test with a service is both cost-effective and convenient. Many garages offer combined packages that:

Save time and hassle.

Help identify issues before your MOT test.

Ensure your car meets all legal and safety standards.

Choosing the Right Service Centre

When selecting a garage for MOT and servicing, consider the following:

Certification: Look for DVSA-approved garages.

Reputation: Check online reviews and recommendations.

Transparent Pricing: Ensure you understand what’s included in the service.

Signs Your Car Needs Immediate Servicing

Strange noises from the engine or brakes.

Warning lights on your dashboard.

Poor fuel efficiency.

Vibrations when driving.

Ignoring these signs could lead to costly repairs and potential MOT failures.

Conclusion

Keeping your car in top condition is essential for safety, performance, and peace of mind. Regular servicing combined with timely MOT tests ensures your vehicle stays roadworthy and reliable. By paying attention to critical parts and choosing a reputable service centre, you’ll save money in the long run and enjoy a smoother driving experience.

Title: The Art of Building Trust: Online Reputation Management Strategies for the UK Manufacturing Sector Regard this as the invisible element of your trade - oiling the gears, if you will – a fine draught of success. We're speaking, of course, about online reputation management (ORM), an oft-neglected, yet crucial aspect of modern-day business. This becomes even more essential in an industry as robust and complex as manufacturing, where establishing trust reigns supreme. In these digital times, your manufacturing firm's reputation isn't exclusively forged on factory floors or in back-room board meetings. It's constructed, displayed and defended online as well. Understandably, the tremendous wave of information available on the internet can be daunting. Fear not, dear reader, our focus is precise: effective, proven strategies that will significantly boost your online reputation management within the UK manufacturing sector. 1. Understanding Your Current Standing: Where are you? No, not physically, but in the digital sphere. Before you can manage your online reputation, you must be entirely cognisant of your present standing. This means being hands-on: reading customer reviews and feedback, scrutinising search engine results, and keeping a keen eye on your social media sentiments. Remember, it's imperative that you take it all in, warts and all – both the pats on the back and the gripes. 2. Respond, and Do It with Class: In the manufacturing business, reputation is built on addressing issues rather than ignoring them. And with British reserve, we appreciate the finesse in addressing concerns appropriately and professionally. Transparent, prompt responses to negative reviews or feedback not only demonstrate accountability but also showcase your commitment to delivering excellence. 3. Generate Expert Content: To be trusted as a UK manufacturer is to be considered an authority in your field. Producing and publishing expert content - articles, blogs, white papers - helps considerably in establishing your reputation as a thought leader. Remember, the art of persuasion in the written word is a powerful finesse exclusive to the British. We appreciate intellectual rigour coupled with wit, a combination that is simply irresistable. 4. Leverage Social Media: Look at it as the bustling village green of the digital world – social media platforms are ripe for relationship building. Being an active presence on these platforms – from LinkedIn to Twitter – enables direct communication with your customers. Share milestones, launch new products, flaunt your human side. In digital parlance, it's about giving your manufacturing firm a face, heart and voice. 5. Utilise Online Reputation Management Tools: In the vibrant hubbub of the internet, reputation can be a tricky element to manage manually. ORM tools – like Google Alerts, SentiOne, or Reputation.com - can ease your burden by monitoring what is being said about your company online. They can also help streamline your response to negative reviews, track customer feedback, and highlight brand sentiment. In conclusion, nurturing and protecting your manufacturing firm's online reputation isn’t just a job entrusted to your marketing team. It's a company-wide commitment, every bit as essential as the goods you produce. After all, in an industry as robust as ours, it will be the quality of your character - as seen through the prism of online reputation - that will ultimately set you apart. So, chin up; onwards and upwards, then. The world of robust online reputation management awaits. You’re British — you've got this. Case Study: How a Major UK Manufacturer Recovered its Online Reputation Consider the example of Acme Systems, a major manufacturing firm in the UK, which encountered a severe reputation crisis a few years ago. A long-standing provider of high-quality systems, they suddenly faced severe backlash due to negative reviews and harmful content circulating online. The reputation crisis deeply impacted client trust and potential business opportunities.

This case study shows how Acme Systems tackled this crisis through an innovative online reputation management strategy - a relatable situation for all businesses within the UK manufacturing sector. 1. Comprehensive Reputation Audit: Acme Systems started with a comprehensive audit of their online reputation. The firm employed professional online reputation management services to help detect all negative content available online. They utilized bespoke software to scour social media, blogs, news sites, review sites, discussion threads, and all corners of the web. 2. Developing a Crisis Management Plan: Armed with the information collected during the audit, Acme Systems developed an in-depth crisis management plan. The plan included public statements to address the negative content, strategies to suppress negative information in search engine results, and an extensive outreach plan to rebuild trust. 3. Improving Search Engine Visibility: To counter negative search engine results, Acme Systems improved their SEO strategy.

Journalists to sue Indian businessman for lying to Google

Two former Wall Street Journal reporters have announced they will take legal action against Indian businessman Gaurav Kumar Srivastava for lying to the search engine Google.

Srivastava is allegedly using false pretenses to force Google to de-index a story that exposed him as a conman and fraudster who abused the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)’s name to defraud a Dutch oil trader.

Bradley Hope, a Pulitzer Prize winner, and Tom Wright, a Pulitzer Prize nominee, published an investigative story on their website Project Brazen—Whalehunting, revealing how Srivastava posed as an operative of America’s main spy outfit, the CIA, to run an international scam on the Geneva-based Dutch oil trader Niels Troost.

It was revealed Srivastava used a creative lie to complain to Google that the award-winning investigative journalism site had stolen the contents of a story on Srivastava from another blog site.

By using Google’s copyright policy to his advantage, Srivastava used a fraudulent technique to get the story on himself de-indexed, according to the journalists.

This involved pasting the article’s text into a blog post on hosting sites Tumblr or Medium and then back-dating the posts, making them appear to have been published earlier than the Project Brazen article. Srivastava then used aliases or fake names to file a copyright complaint to Google to de-index the articles.

The investigative journalism site said: “We’re going to contest this fraudulent takedown request to make sure our story appears on search engines again”. Bradley Hope said: “We don’t know who put up the fake claim, but it was somebody who didn’t want others to read our expose. We have complained to Google”.

One of the reporters on the investigative story, Soobin Kim, tweeted: “Our @WhaleHunting story was removed from Google’s indexes due to copyright complaints. The complaints, saved on @lumendatabase, claim we copied a backdated blog post, all content of which was lifted from our story. This is how fraudsters curate their online reputation”.

Project Brazen from its official verified handle revealed the full scale of shocking fraud run on Google by Gaurav Srivastava to remove his expose from Google.

In a thread on social media site X, it said: “Our @WhaleHunting team recently reported on an alleged serial conman named Gaurav Srivastava, who masquerades as a CIA operative to swindle gullible business owners. Less than a month after the story ran, it disappeared from Google’s indexes. Instead, there was a note saying that search results had been removed due to complaints”.

“On @lumendatabase, which collects online content removal notices, we found two complaints submitted to Google by someone named Sherrie Hagen, claiming that our story had infringed the copyright of a blog post on Tumblr”.

“The post purporting to be the original had republished the text from the public preview of our story on @WhaleHunting, word for word. It was backdated to Oct 8th, two days before our date of publication, but the blog’s archive reveals that it was actually posted sometime in Nov”.

This US-based Sherrie Hagen in fact filed four copyright complaints to Google in November 2023, with one complaint claiming she was based in the UK. The Tumblr blog post that was apparently the original source of this information has now been altered to a completely different story—a move that leaves little online trace of reports on Srivastava’s fraudulent activity”. Tumblr confirmed in a statement its platform was misused.

The blogging site said: “We can confirm the blog has been removed from Tumblr for violating our Community Guidelines. Tumblr and Automattic take legitimate copyright protection very seriously. We take great care to protect our users from fraudulent or otherwise invalid takedown notices, and similarly we have a zero tolerance policy for blogs using our services to abuse the DMCA”.

According to the Project Brazen investigation, Niels Troost was introduced in the summer of 2022 by a mutual contact to Gaurav Kumar Srivastava, who pretended to be very well-connected with the Washington power circles and also to the country’s main spy agency—the CIA.

At that time, the oil trader was in a state of growing panic as someone purporting to be a US government informant had falsely led him to believe the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was investigating him and his commodities-trading company headquartered in Switzerland, Paramount Energy & Commodities SA.

Troost asked Gaurav Srivastava for help. Srivastava assured him he would deal with the FBI and led Troost to believe he was a “non-official cover” or NOC (pronounced “knock”) for the CIA, operating at the senior level amongst a total of 30 NOCs around the world.

Srivastava put forth a dubious proposition: if Troost could make Srivastava a partner in the business, by moving 50pc of the shares of Paramount to a Delaware-incorporated company controlled by Srivastava, and domicile Paramount into the US, Troost would then be safe as part of a state-approved network to collect intelligence on behalf of the US.

Srivastava stipulated the transfer must take place through the US law firm BakerHostetler.

As his engagement with the Indian businessman continued, Troost had rising doubts about Srivastava’s bona fides. Srivastava made tall claims about his CIA and FBI connections, but was unable to show any evidence of his influence, making Troost increasingly uneasy.

According to legal papers, it was in April 2023 Troost hired investigators to perform due diligence on Srivastava and discovered a chilling history of fraud suits and unpaid bills over several years.

Seeing the intelligence reports of Srivastava’s alleged fraud, Troost realised Srivastava had no connections with the CIA and that he was only a huckster who cobbled together false stories to feign an air of importance, exclusivity and impunity. Srivastava’s fraudulent scheme broke down on May 10, 2023, and is now subject to legal action. Srivastava didn’t respond to questions.

The forgotten Mk3 Mondeo engine - the 1.8 SCI

Walk into a car parts store, any car parts store, and ask them for a set of spark plugs for a Ford Mondeo 1.8 SCI. What will likely happen next, is they'll guide you to the spark plugs for the regular 1.8 petrol, the one that goes almost hand-in-hand with many of the Edge and Zetec models up and down the country. At this point, you respond with "No, not *that* 1.8, the direct injection one!", to which they'll probably look at you like you've just told them they have six heads. On the way home, you'll stop to fuel up, and quickly glance over at the fuelling bay beside yours, in which the owner of a regular 1.8 has just paid significantly less for their tank of fuel than you have. As you mutter something about the government's decision to change standard petrol to 10% ethanol and leave the E5 fuel exclusive to the premium grade, a tear drops into your coffee, which you place back into your slide-out cupholder before driving away home while questioning why you didn't just buy the standard 1.8.

The Mondeo SCI is one of those strange anomalies mostly forgotten now, but still deserves some love and attention. Exclusive to Ghia and Ghia X models, the 1.8 SCI could be identified by a small badge on the back of the car. A direct quote from an old Ford Mondeo brochure reads "The 1.8-litre Duratec SCi engine uses direct petrol injection for improved fuel economy and lower emissions." It is worth noting that the 1.8 SCi also has slightly more power than the regular 1.8. Of course, literally anyone currently alive on this planet will agree that this is a fantastic thing. And that's because it is. Anyone who disagrees is lying to you. Or the boss of an oil company.

Searching up the Mondeo 1.8 SCI online will provide you with some very interesting results. One person from many years ago stated that even the Ford mechanics did not recognise what it was. And if you're searching for parts - good luck - it's almost impossible now. The fuel injectors especially so.

The very helpful HowManyLeft website shows some interesting statistics. As of quarter 2 of 2023, 73 Ghia models are currently licensed and taxed on UK roads. A further 42 are currently registered as SORN, which for readers outside of the UK, means that the car is currently not used on public roads. The slightly more expensive Ghia X model is even more rare - with 22 licensed and just 13 SORN. Very sad. Sadly, with the price of premium fuel, and the fact that it's almost impossible to find parts, this particular Mondeo variant will soon be lost to time, only remembered in ancient forum posts, old photos, and stories spread by families and friends... "Remember when Dave put the wrong petrol in the car and Vanessa nearly killed him using nothing but an empty cardboard box? Those were good times... I loved that car."

Mondeo SCIs do occasionally come up for sale online, usually in questionable condition. Keep a look out for them! Thank you for reading this post. If you found this by trying to find parts, I am sorry that I am unable to assist! However - don't give up - keep searching the used/refurbished parts market! It would be a shame to let something like this become completely forgotten.

Thanks for reading.

Addressing Known Issues: If there are known issues with the vehicle, addressing them before the test can prevent potential failures.

Choosing the Right MOT Centre in Wolverhampton: Factors to Consider

Selecting the right MOT centre in Wolverhampton is a critical step in the process. Consider the following factors:

Accreditation: Ensure that the MOT centre is accredited by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), indicating that it meets the required standards for testing.

Facility Reputation: Seek recommendations from fellow motorists and check online reviews to gauge the reputation of the MOT centre.

Transparent Pricing: A reputable MOT centre provides transparent pricing information and avoids hidden charges.

Facility Amenities: Consider the amenities offered by the MOT centre, such as waiting areas and additional services that may enhance the overall customer experience.

Appointment Availability: Check the availability of appointments to ensure that the testing can be scheduled conveniently.

The MOT Test Day: What to Expect

On the day of the MOT test, vehicle owners in Wolverhampton should:

Arrive Early: Arriving early allows for a smoother process and potential addressing of any last-minute concerns.

Provide Necessary Documents: Ensure that all required documents, including the vehicle's registration certificate, are provided.

Wait Comfortably: If the MOT centre offers waiting areas, use the time to wait comfortably while the test is conducted.

Receive Feedback: Once the test is complete, the MOT centre will provide feedback on the results. If issues are identified, they will be explained, and recommendations for necessary repairs will be offered.

Addressing Failures: Next Steps

If the vehicle fails the MOT test, Wolverhampton vehicle owners should:

Receive a Report: The MOT centre provides a detailed report outlining the reasons for failure.

Understand Failures: Vehicle owners should understand the reasons for failure and discuss them with the MOT centre for clarification.

Consider Repairs: Based on the report, necessary repairs can be undertaken, either by the vehicle owner or at the MOT centre.

Re-Test: Once repairs are completed, a re-test can be scheduled to ensure that the identified issues have been addressed.

Conclusion: Sailing Through the Wolverhampton MOT Process

In conclusion, navigating the MOT process in Wolverhampton is essential for ensuring roadworthiness and compliance with legal requirements. Understanding the components of the MOT test, preparing the vehicle adequately, choosing the right MOT centre, and addressing any identified issues contribute to a smooth and successful testing experience. By sailing through the MOT process with diligence and awareness, Wolverhampton vehicle owners can maintain not only the safety of their vehicles but also the confidence that comes with smooth sailing on the city's roads.

First transatlantic flight using 100% green fuels to take off

By Katy Austin

Transport correspondent

The first transatlantic flight powered only by alternative fuels will take off from the UK on Tuesday morning.

Operated by Virgin Atlantic, it will fly from London’s Heathrow to New York’s JFK airport at 11:30 GMT.

Airlines see the flight, which is supported by government funding, as demonstrating that a greener way of flying is possible.

But a lack of fuel supply remains a challenge, while other technology will be needed to hit emissions targets.

The flight is a one-off of its kind so far, and is not carrying fare-paying passengers.

So-called sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) can be made from a variety of sources, including crops, household waste and cooking oils.

For this flight, a Boeing 787 will be filled with 50 tonnes of SAF. Two types are being used, with 88% derived from waste fats and the rest from the wastes of corn production in the US.

Following test and analysis, the flight was approved by UK regulator the Civil Aviation Authority earlier this month. A number of companies have been involved in the project including engine-maker Rolls-Royce and energy giant BP.

The aviation industry is particularly difficult to decarbonise, but airline bosses view SAF as the most effective tool available to help bring its net emissions down to zero.

Planes still emit carbon when using SAF, but the industry says the “lifecycle emissions” of these fuels can be up to 70% lower.

Shai Weiss, chief executive of Virgin Atlantic, said the airline’s flight on Tuesday was “proving… that fossil-derived fuel can be replaced by sustainable aviation fuel”.

“It’s really the only pathway to decarbonising long-haul aviation over and above having the youngest fleet in the sky,” he told the BBC’s Today programme. “It is a really momentous achievement.”

However, he said there was not enough SAF currently. “The issue is how we get enough production here in the UK as part of an industrial revolution and more importantly around the world.”

He admitted that due to the fuel being more expensive, flight prices would end up being higher.

Guilt-free flying not in easy reach – scientists

Using pig fat as green jet fuel ‘will hurt planet’

SAF is already used in small amounts, blended with traditional jet fuel, but accounts for less than 0.1% of the aviation fuel consumed around the world.

It currently costs more than kerosene, and relatively small amounts are made. Aircraft are usually only allowed to use up to 50% in a blend.

There are no dedicated commercial SAF plants in the UK, although the government aim is to have five under construction by 2025, supported by grant funding.

Airlines see the first long-haul flight using 100% SAF as a significant milestone. But experts say such fuels are not a magic bullet.

Dr Guy Gratton, associate professor of aviation and the environment at Cranfield University, said: “We can’t produce a majority of our fuel requirements this way because we just don’t have the feedstocks. And even if you do, these fuels are not true ‘net zeros’.”

He said the growing use of SAF had to be treated as “a stepping stone towards future, genuinely net zero technologies”.

“This might be e-fuels [which are manufactured using captured carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide, together with hydrogen], it might be hydrogen, it might be some technologies that we still really only have at the laboratory stage.”

The policy director of the Aviation Environment Federation campaign group, Cait Hewitt, said the idea that the flight meant the UK was closer to “guilt-free” flying was “a joke”.

She said that the hope is there will be better technology in the future to cut carbon emissions but, for now, the only way to achieve this is to “fly less”.

UK ministers and the industry have insisted they believe “net zero” by 2050 is achievable with passenger numbers increasing.

Transport Secretary Mark Harper told BBC Breakfast: “There are those campaigners who want to tell ordinary people that they can’t fly. That’s their view, they’re entitled to it. The government doesn’t agree with them.

“Using sustainable aviation fuel means that over its life cycle we produce around 70% less carbon emissions than traditional fuels so that is a really big step forward,” he added.

“We are also involved with supporting the industry develop hydrogen and also electric flights for shorter-haul flights, so all of that technology is being developed.”

Mr Harper acknowledged that using sustainable aviation fuels “is not the only solution” but he said: “It is a really important step with those other technologies to make sure we can carry on flying and protect the environment.”

The UK government plans to require 10% of aviation fuel to be SAF by 2030.

Airlines UK, which represents UK-registered carriers, said they must be able to access enough affordable SAF to meet such a requirement, with as much as possible coming from the UK.

Its boss Tim Alderslade said: “The last thing we want is higher fuel costs for UK passengers compared to the rest of Europe and the US, with worse sustainability outcomes and thousands of new jobs lost overseas.”

Marine engines are crucial components of any vessel, be it a small fishing boat or a large container ship. These engines require high-quality lubricants to keep them running smoothly and efficiently. That's where marine engine oil comes in.

Marine engine oil is specifically designed for use in marine engines. It has to be able to withstand the harsh operating conditions of the ocean environment, such as high humidity, saltwater, and extreme temperatures. This type of oil is also formulated to provide superior protection against corrosion, wear, and deposits.

If you're looking to buy marine engine oil online in the UK, Salmarine is a reputable supplier that offers a wide range of products to suit your needs. In this article, we'll take a closer look at marine engine oil and why it's essential to choose the right one for your vessel.

Why is Marine Engine Oil Important?

Marine engines are often subjected to harsh operating conditions, such as high loads, high temperatures, and prolonged periods of use. Without proper lubrication, these conditions can lead to engine damage and reduced performance.

Marine engine oil provides lubrication to the engine's moving parts, reducing friction and wear. It also helps to cool the engine by carrying heat away from the combustion chamber and dissipating it into the surrounding environment.

In addition to lubrication and cooling, marine engine oil also helps to protect the engine against corrosion and deposits. Corrosion can occur when the engine is exposed to saltwater, which can cause rust and other forms of metal degradation. Deposits can build up in the engine over time, reducing performance and efficiency.

Choosing the Right Marine Engine Oil

Choosing the right marine engine oil for your vessel is crucial to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your engine. There are several factors to consider when selecting a marine engine oil, such as:

1. Viscosity -

Viscosity refers to the thickness of the oil and its ability to flow at different temperatures. Marine engines require oil with a specific viscosity range to ensure proper lubrication and protection. The viscosity range is usually indicated by the oil's SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) rating, such as SAE 30, SAE 40, or SAE 50.

2. Additives-

Marine engine oil contains various additives that enhance its performance and protection. These additives can include detergents, dispersants, anti-wear agents, corrosion inhibitors, and antioxidants. It's essential to choose an oil with the right blend of additives to suit your engine's specific needs.

3. Base Oil -

The base oil is the primary component of the oil and can be derived from various sources, such as mineral oil, synthetic oil, or a blend of both. Each base oil has its unique properties that can affect the oil's performance and protection.

4. Manufacturer Recommendations-

It's essential to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the type of oil to use in your engine. Using the wrong type of oil can lead to engine damage and void any warranties. Always consult your owner's manual or contact the manufacturer for guidance on the best oil to use in your engine.
