He He, I like the addition of "spurious". Now, explain!
Which is - that jadziasman's figures are wrong? Or...? I did say "If..." So, please explain.
What an interesting thread! Particularly interested in your comment, jadziasman: So, why do they use E10 in the US? Is it because the...
Correct!!! Wires crossed, for sure. Fixed for the benefit of those who follow.
Hello Vincent, Many thanks for that link. Yes, I see I was a bit loose with the physics there. In fact, to avoid having the ICE rotate, MG1...
Indeed! But I was thinking that MG1 would be involved in Regen, because it's spinning much faster than MG2 and can therefore generate power at...
When I think of it like this, I see there's a good argument for inserting a simple dog clutch between the drive shaft and the Power Splitter. That...
Hi Greg, That's what I was asking, but apparently, there isn't. MG1 apparently doesn't deliver/require any (significant) torque when the ICE is...
Thanks Patrick, I knew you'd have the answer! Yes, I'd already read the Wikipedia entry, but at the time (it may have been updated since),...
Hi Jimbo, Is that why the ORNL report constantly refers to MG1 as "Generator"? Because the only time it's really a motor is when it's...
Howdy Easy Rider! Yes, but... Under applied torque such as will be generated by high regen braking, surely the engine will turn? It's designed...
Hi there and welcome, I have a question too. When you undid the nuts holding the bus bars to the battery terminals, did you happen to notice...
Hi Guys, This question really belongs in an overall Prius Technical Discussion group, but there doesn't seem to be one. Following my recent...
Hi Guys, dorunron & Patrick, Thanks for all your excellent input. Will try the virus cleanup when I get a minute! Meanwhile, I have started a...
Hi Guys, Just a quick warning to all regarding the use of Multi-Vehicle, Multi-Function OBD Scan & Programming Tools. Probably applies to all...
Solid, I'd say.
Not my image, but mine looked just like this. A 4 litre tin. [ATTACH] With a tear off seal on the pressed steel cap. "Special" Not to mention...
Hi Patrick, Thanks again for your excellent pointers! Ok, I can confirm that the coolant pump is running, and coolant is circulating -...
How about that? I guess we have to import ours from Japan. Maybe yours are made locally, so hopefully are fresher. I'll post my pics when I find...
Further to uart's suggestion: If it's genuine 50k miles, hopefully, the seller dropped if because his brake pads are worn out and the noise...
