      A watch is a fiddly little time piece that doesn't have any reason to need to be opened up unless something happens to it, a car will have something go wrong with standard use.

The Jetta Sportswagen took us a full hundred thousand miles in five years before the Dieselgate scandal caught up to us and she got a minivan instead. She really liked the old car, though. Diesel’s somewhat expensive but at least it made up for that in fuel mileage (regardless of the emissions).

Not only we have the absolute *chaos* of using eggnog as oil in a car already running on pilk coolant, but we also got the eggnog foaming and lumping and boiling all over, the car getting a better drag time with pure eggnog after being slower than Tony with gravy oil, the engine barely idling at flat out yet *still* running, and *multiple resurrections* before the engine finally died for good. Top notch!

I personally would not feel too comfortable buying a used car here with much more than that mostly because there is a tendency for people to not take care of their vehicles (a mix of high cost of ownership and low education) and a car with "so many kilometers" probably has other age+maintenance related issues.

    • @jordanrijsdijk5496
      @jordanrijsdijk5496 9 годин тому

      @ caramelizing is turning it into a fluid? Sugar is a solid which due to the temperature melts into a fluid, one that’s as viscous as molasses, then when it cools down after shutting the engine down you get that beautiful glass sheet. But that is also just pure sugar that behaves that way, if there’s enough additives in the eggnog mixture that don’t evaporate you’ll get more of a fudge or even Nutella like texture after it cools down!
      Your main problem would be the incredibly viscous fluid creating extreme resistance in the exact places you do not want resistance! Like a bearing that needs to move as smoothly and unimpeded as possible because there’s about to be an explosion to deliver more force into the crankshaft and if that crankshaft isn’t in the right position you’d, if you’re lucky, waste the power or if you’re unlucky, push pistons into cylinders or break anything from bearings to the crankshaft itself!

      @ that is what caramelization is… at first it isn’t that thick of a liquid because there’s still water or other liquids in the mixture…. The candy making stages that you mean is just molten sugar. The browning comes from the temperature during the melting process, the higher the temperature the clearer as long as you don’t burn it but that’s more often than not a heat application thing and not a temperature thing. As long as the engine keeps running it won’t cool down, it won’t harden. Also the fact that there was eggnog left to drain means that won’t happen all together since it’s still mixed with another way lower viscosity fluid.
      Unless you run the engine until all nog has evaporated and then let the car cool down, which would also take awhile, then you might find a glazing of hard and glass like sugar polymers
