    The more I look at it the more it looks like one of those smoke free ash trays.

    You put your cigarette in the little grooves, you push the middle button and the fan thingy opens up and sucks the ashes and smoke into a bowl thingy attachment.

    Are you seeing it, because that's all I can see now. ;)

    I just want to point out that I already said fan belt. I didn't include the thingy that cools the radiator though.

    If you're right we have to share the prize.

    Where is that Shazzy?

    We have guesses here. Is anyone right, or close?

    Sneezy would have gotten it right away.

    Oooh... I'm sending this to Sneezy.

    Be prepared to lose! Muwhahahahahahaha. And no sharsies. Pflllt. :)

    It can't be a rim. Rims don't have bolt-end-thingies sticking out of them.

    Definitely looks like something that spins though

    I think brake discs are flat, but I could be wrong.

    M, call Shazzy, you're close to her neck of the woods. Get her to come back and give us a hint or tell us if anyone got it right.

    I won't be able to sleep until I know.

    SHAZZY!! ;)

    Oooh, I think I've got it.

    It's the thingy that hold the round thing that you need to change every once in a while. You can see it when you open the hood of the car.

    Darnit, what's the technical term for it?

    Maybe we should post a picture of this in the Car forum, ask the experts. :)

    Anyone notice that the ads on the right hand side of the thread are all about car parts? The site knows what it is but we can't figure it out.

    That's just sad.

    How about the blower thingy that muscle cars sometimes have on the hood.

    Let's see if I can find a picture.

    Isn't a turbocharger the thingy on the hood that I posted a picture of?

    Where exactly is a turbocharger in the car?
  • Apr 27, 2010, 11:40 PM
    KISS

    YouTube - Forced Induction - Supercharger vs. Turbo Charger

    Most cars don't have one.

    The thing on top of car hoods is a "Hood scoop" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hood_scoop

    Large ones show up when there is an intercooler mounted on top of the engine.

    Well done KISS!

    I was hoping that would be a tricky one ;)
