Q. I was following my wife as she was driving her 2017 Toyota Camry down the highway last week heading to Maine. When she first got on the highway there must have been a gallon of water that came out of the tailpipe. Is this serious?
A. When an internal combustion engine burns a gallon of gasoline it makes nearly a gallon of water. Generally, this water gets so hot it disappears as steam vapor. If your wife’s car in driven primarily short distances the water collects in the muffler. When she accelerated out on the highway the collected water was forced from the exhaust system. This is completely normal and also explains why muffler systems rust from the inside out.
Q. I have a 2002 Hyundai Elantra that has a crankshaft seal leak. The mechanic is suspicious that the engine has a problem. As of right now he is saying that I might be looking at as much as $2500 to fix the oil leak. Can you supply me some advice?
A. There have been problems with the thrust bearing wearing on the 2.0-liter four cylinder engines in some Hyundai models. When these bearings wear or in some cases fall out all together the crankshaft “walks” in the engine block and causes the crankshaft seal to leak. To replace the bearings is a big job, taking nearly 13 hours. At 20 years old it may make more sense just to live with the oil leak.
Q. My check engine light came on and I had a diagnostic check, and nothing was wrong. Since then, the light comes on once every two weeks. What should I do?
A. If the check engine light comes on there is a problem of some kind. When the light is on, go back to the repair shop and have them check the car for a trouble/fault code. This code won’t pinpoint the exact cause of the problem but will lead the technician to the proper repair.
Q. Electric vehicles are always in the news and in fact I don’t go a day now without seeing some electric vehicle. But my question is when will we see real self-driving cars?
A. Self-driving cars are divided into different levels of autonomy from 0 to 5. At Level 0 you are in full control, Level 1 is typically smart cruise control, Level 2 has some steering assist and Level 3 the car drives itself until it can’t and then the driver needs to jump in and take over. Level 4 is full self-driving on certain roadways and finally level 5 is completely self-driving on all roads and in fact the car may not have a steering wheel. Currently Mercedes Benz is offering some Level 3 car in Europe and may be offering them here sometime next year in their new line of EQ electric vehicles.
Q. My car coolant and transmission fluid started mixing causing my transmission to fill up with a yogurt like substance. I believe the head gaskets are blown out what is the best solution for this?
A. If it were a head gasket there would be coolant in the oil and oil in the radiator. In the case of your car, there is oil in the coolant and coolant in the transmission fluid, which indicates the transmission oil cooler has failed. The transmission cooler is part of the radiator. Depending on how long the fluids have been mixed together the transmission may need an overhaul and cooling system completely flushed out as well as the hoses and thermostat replaced. Sometimes you can get lucky and flush out the cooling system and the transmission and the everything will operate as designed.
Q. I always read your column, and but now I would like your honest opinion. I have a 2003 Mazda Miata that I bought new. It has 115,000 miles and is well taken care of and I love this car. However, I just paid $1200 to have a new brake line replaced, an axle seal leak fixed and some other maintenance stuff. I have been averaging $1000 for repairs every year for a few years, sometimes a bit more. Friends say get rid of it, it’s too small, it’s too old, I’m too old and it’s a money pit. The problem is short of buying a new Miata there isn’t anything I like better. I like the simplicity of this car, and how much fun it is to drive. Is this crazy? My other car is a 2015 Lexus LS, what do you think?
A. Repairing an old car is always cheaper than buying a new car. If the Miata is structurally sound (some Miatas can get very rusty), fairly dependable and satisfies your needs, spending $1000 a year isn’t crazy. For many cars today $1000 would be two and three months of car payments. Although at some point you may need to consider a replacement when dependability becomes more of an issue. Since you also own a very dependable Lexus, I vote to keep and repair the Miata. By the way, who says you are too old to drive a Miata, certainly not me.
Q. Do you really send a personal replay to every question you get? I think you once wrote that there are no stupid questions. I have a couple of questions that I want to send and feel they may be too trivial.
A. Yes, I will try to answer every question, in fact readers if you don’t hear from me in a few days, email me again. And like my fourth-grade teacher said, the only stupid question is the one you didn’t ask. Although just to prove the point, I think the original source of that statement is Confucius who said “the man who asks a stupid question is a fool for a minute, the man who does not ask a stupid question is a fool for life” So readers was it Confucius?

PORT ANGELES — The critical need for individuals and families who can provide safe, temporary homes for children placed in foster care in Clallam County inspired two informational sessions for those who have questions or are interested in becoming foster parents.
“Foster Care Awareness Night” will be held from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Monday at the Sequim High School auditorium, 533 N. Sequim Ave., and Wednesday from 7 p.m. to
8:30 p.m. at the Port Angeles High School auditorium, 304 E. Park Ave.
“If we don’t have an open foster home in Clallam County, children will not be brought into care and they’ll stay at a home that may be considered dangerous, so we’re really trying to expand the number of available foster homes that we have to support all the kiddos who need care,” said Merrin Packer, the liaison between the Sequim School District and Washington State Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF) and one of the event’s organizers.
“We really only have 30 foster homes that are currently accepting new placements, and we have over 100 foster youth brought into care every year, so the math is just not good.”
According to the state Department of Children, Youth and Families, there were 80 children in foster care in Clallam County through the second week of November. Statewide, there were 6,275 children placed in out-of-home care and in custody of the DCYF.
“This night is to educate our community on foster care, answer questions about becoming foster parents and what the responsibilities are as well as what the process looks like,” Packer said.
The program will start with a 25-minute documentary about foster care from the perspective of children who have been in the system.
It will be followed by a panel of individuals with knowledge of the legal, social and emotional aspects of out-of-care placement, including Brandon Mack, family court commissioner for Clallam County Superior Court; two DCYF supervisors; a representative from Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA); a CPS supervisor and Packer, a foster parent.
Packer and her husband, Jarom Packer, an elementary school teacher in the Port Angeles School District, adopted three children now ages 2, 3 and 4 they originally took in as infants through the foster care system (although this is uncommon).
Packer called being a foster parent “humbling” and “a blessing,” while acknowledging the many challenges of the role.
One of the most significant, she said, is accepting that even though you love and support a child, you have little say in what happens to him or her.
“Children in foster care are the custodial jurisdiction of the state, so they are the decision-makers and their primary goal is reuniting the child back in with the biological family,” Packer said. “Sometimes foster parents are not going to agree with that, and it’s hard to hold your tongue.”
A barrier to recruiting foster parents, she said, is the amount of time and effort it takes to get through the approval process.
“It is rigorous,” Packer said. “It takes an average of three to four months to get licensed.
“You have to go through 24 hours of training that teaches you all about the court process, how do you respond to certain behaviors, how to work with families and kind of what you’re getting yourself into.”
Individuals also must obtain first aid and CPR certification, undergo a federal background check and fingerprinting, receive a home visit from a social worker and agree to fulfilling continuing education requirements.
But once you become a foster parent, Packer said, you join a community of other foster families who can be relied on for everything from emotional support to loaning a crib for a newborn.
One of the most important things to remember, Packer said, is that many children haven’t been taught well.
“They might not have been taught how to brush their teeth before bed. They might not have been taught to eat dinner together as a family at the table. They might not have been taught to use their manners,” Packer said.
“But because they have bad behaviors, doesn’t mean they’re a bad kid. These things can change with a positive environment.”

Which famous line from Jaws was ad-libbed?
A. “I used to hate the water.”
B. “You’re gonna need a bigger boat.”
C. “All this machine does is swim, and eat, and make little sharks.”
D. “You know, a thing about a shark, he’s got…lifeless eyes. Black eyes, like a doll’s eyes!”
Answer: “You’re gonna need a bigger boat.”
Bonus fact: First of all, the line was “You’re gonna need a bigger boat,” not “we’re,” as it’s often misquoted. The line wasn’t in the original script but was an inside joke among the Jaws crew, teasing the stingy producers for picking a support boat that was too small to hold the equipment. Actor Roy Scheider ad-libbed the line throughout filming, but the one kept in the final cut became one of the most remembered movie quotes of all time.

CaixaBank’s artificial intelligence (AI)-based virtual assistant has answered more questions for more customers than any other support channel, after four million people used the service.
The Spanish bank said the CaixaBankNow virtual assistant receives an average of 50,000 questions a day, either spoken or written, to help access services such as making payments or blocking lost cash cards.
A CaixaBank statement said: “The online assistant offers immediate answers on a wide range of topics, such as the features of banking products and services, how to take out a product or stepping customers through the process of restoring their digital banking password. It also lets customers make an appointment at their branch, check their balance and activity, and carry out simple operations, such as blocking cards or sending money through the Spanish mobile payment solution Bizum.”
The main queries addressed to the virtual assistant were customers asking about bills, deposits, accessing the Bizum mobile payments system, and making appointments with in-branch advisers.
The AI assistant also supports the bank’s staff in offering answers to questions and is an example of how digital transformation at banks goes beyond transforming customer engagements with chatbots or replacing repetitive manual tasks with robotic process automation software.
The CaixaBankNow AI is also capable of answering questions from CaixaBank’s employees, such as those involving internal rules and technology, and can answer more than 1,500 questions in different languages.
The bank added: “Now CaixaBank is applying all the power of AI to develop tools for its managers and customers, and for other strategic objectives, such as employee training.”
In 2020, the bank introduced AI as part of its internal training platform to help its staff understand what training they could benefit from and help them to access it.
Courses in languages, executive skills, digital skills, finance and risk management, among others, are offered through the service.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — If you’re in the middle of making decisions about Medicare coverage, you’ve got a little over a month to gather information and find answers to your questions.
How to choose a Medicare drug plan, what are the costs of various plans and what are the deadlines are common questions that arise during the Medicare open enrollment period, which runs through Wednesday, Dec. 7.
A panel of Medicare experts offered answers recently during The Plain Dealer and cleveland.com Guide to Medicare & Golden Retirement presented by Medical Mutual.
Below are questions posed by some of the 600 registrants who signed up for the virtual free event. Answers were supplied by panelists Christina Reeg, program director of the Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program (OSHIIP) housed within the Ohio Department of Insurance; Amanda McFarland, account manager for Northeast Ohio at Medical Mutual; and Katie Goff, director of pharmacy, Medicare and Information Services at Medical Mutual. Some answers were provided by medicare.gov.
Q: I’m not planning on using Medicare next year. Do I still need to enroll?
If you don’t take Medicare when you’re first eligible, you can sign up every year during the general enrollment period. But there is a penalty. It’s 10% of the Part B premium for every year of delay. If you’re two years late, the penalty is 20%. So typically, if you’re eligible for Medicare, you absolutely want to sign up.
The only exception to that penalty comes if you are covered by current group health coverage. If you or your spouse is currently working, and the current employer is providing you with health insurance, you can delay that Medicare Part B sign-up with no penalty. But mostly, if you’re not working, you need to sign up for Medicare.
Q: Does Medicare take money from my Social Security benefits?
Most people elect to have (Medicare premiums) come out of their Social Security check. It’s just easier than getting a bill and having to pay it. But premiums don’t have to come out of Social Security.
Typically, the times when members have lost their Medicare, the reason was because it wasn’t automatically deducted from Social Security and they forgot to pay for it.
Q: Is there a deadline for adding a supplemental plan?
Remember, Medicare supplement is the secondary coverage after original Medicare - adding coverage for things Medicare doesn’t pay, such as Part A and Part B deductibles, coinsurance and copayments. If you’re in original Medicare, you can apply for a supplement any day of the year. Individuals new to Medicare Part B and are at least 65 years old have a 6-month open enrollment to purchase Medicare Supplemental Insurance without medical underwriting.
The best time to buy is when you’re new to Medicare; then you have a six-month Medicare supplement open enrollment period. At that time, you can make an application for any plan that’s out there. The plan has to accept your application. Beyond that enrollment period, if you apply for a supplement, they may sell to you or they may not.
Q. How will I know if my drugs are covered if I go to a new Medicare Part D plan?
We live and breathe by a formulary, or a list of drugs, that the plans cover. Every plan is different. Check to see how that plan covers your drugs. You can do this by visiting the plan’s website.
The websites allow you to put in your list of medications and see how each of the plan options available from that plan will cover your drugs. As an example, medicare.gov/plan-compare allows you to compare prices for specific drugs by plan.
Q: Does income affect premium cost?
It can, yes. For part B and part D — not Medicare Advantage — you could pay more if you have a high income (over $97,000 for individuals, $194,000 for couples). If you’re low income, there’s additional help out there to help you pick up some of those costs.
Q: How are independent Medicare agents compensated?
There’s no cost to the member to work with an agent. The agents are compensated by the insurance carriers. If somebody’s asking you to pay for their services, that should be a red flag. The agents are not compensated unless a member enrolls in a plan they represent.
Q: Can I pay my Medicare premium with a health savings account?
Once you’re on Medicare Part A, you can no longer contribute into a health savings account. But if you’ve got money sitting there in an account, you can spend it on any medical need, including the premium.
Q: In a Medicare Advantage plan, is there an amount I must pay out of pocket before the plan starts paying?
There are going to be co-pays for all sorts of sorts of different services. But the nice thing about Medicare Advantage, is that Medicare Advantage plans have a maximum out-of-pocket charge. Whereas with original Medicare, if you incur a lot of high-cost claims, there would be no cap. It’s not like a group insurance plan where you might have a $2,500 deductible and then once you hit that, the (health insurance) carrier starts paying. Medicare Advantage is different.
Q: If I am not taking any prescription drugs, how do I choose a Medicare part D plan?
Think about those acute episodes of illness when you may need an antibiotic . Or you might want your vaccines; they’re going to be free in 2023. Look at it from that perspective. You’ll have to pay out of your pocket for those products if you don’t have part D to cover it.
Q: Can I go to any hospital within a Medicare Advantage plan?
Each health insurance carrier is going to have its own network of hospitals. If you have an emergency situation that is life threatening, it does not matter where you go. Get to that closest hospital and you are covered for emergency and urgent care no matter what. But for routine surgery, make sure you’re using an in-network hospital.

Comment
Justice Department prosecutors have asked former vice president Mike Pence to answer questions as part of their sprawling probe into the events of Jan. 6, 2021, and efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, according to two people familiar with the matter.
The informal request came in recent weeks — before last Friday, when Attorney General Merrick Garland named a special counsel to oversee aspects of the Jan. 6 probe as well as a separate investigation of former president Donald Trump’s possession of hundreds of classified records at his home after leaving the presidency.
Pence has not decided how to handle the request that he answer questions about his interactions with Trump near the end of their time in the White House, said one person briefed on the discussion. Both people familiar with the matter spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal conversations.
Pence has not been issued a formal subpoena, said one of the people, describing the talks with the Justice Department as being in a preliminary stage. Both people said the department has reached out to Pence lawyer Emmet Flood, who is representing the former vice president in this matter.
The New York Times was the first to report the Justice Department’s extraordinary ask of the former vice president: that he share his private conversations with his former running mate, president and de facto party leader, even as Trump has launched a new campaign for the White House and Pence is also considering a 2024 bid.
The Justice Department has already engaged in lengthy negotiations with other advisers to Trump over requests to interview them, navigating issues of executive privilege. A request for Pence to relay sensitive conversations with the president could trigger a new battle over that issue.
The move to talk to Pence is a significant step in the long-running investigation. Garland faced intense criticism in 2021 and early 2022 for appearing to be slow to investigate the role of Trump and his top aides in efforts to reverse the results of the presidential election. The department’s probe expanded in March to look at those who planned and financed the rally before the Capitol riot and to request phone records for critical players in Trump’s White House and orbit, up to and including his chief of staff Mark Meadows.
Later this spring and summer, the Justice Department sought vast amounts of additional information, including communications with several top advisers to Trump and scores of others involved in efforts to offer up fake slates of pro-Trump electors in Georgia, Michigan, Arizona and other states won by President Biden.
Pence aides, including chief of staff Marc Short, have answered hours of questions in front of a Washington-based grand jury about Jan. 6, when a riotous mob left a Trump rally and stormed the Capitol, as well as the events that led up to that day and Trump’s interactions with Pence and his team in the White House. Short has appeared twice in front of the grand jury.
At the same time, the Justice Department is compiling witnesses and evidence in its Mar-a-Lago documents probe, which focuses on the potential mishandling of highly classified information, obstruction and destruction of government property. And in Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis (D) is conducting a separate investigation of the efforts by Trump and his allies to reverse the election results in that state.
In interviews for his recent book, “So Help Me God,” Pence has criticized Trump for actions that Pence said were “reckless” and “endangered” him, his family and everyone at the Capitol. In an ABC “World News Tonight” interview published Nov. 13, Pence called out Trump for his words egging on his supporters on Jan. 6 and for tweeting that his vice president didn’t have the courage to block the certification and “do what should have been done.”
“I mean, the president’s words were reckless,” Pence said in a preview clip. “It was clear he decided to be part of the problem.” But Pence also said in another interview that speaking to the congressional committee investigating the events leading up to the attack on the Capitol — including Trump’s pressure on Pence — would undermine the separation of powers between the branches of government.
Pence did not appear in front of the Jan. 6 committee and was critical of its composition, even as some of his top aides appeared and he blessed their appearances, the people familiar with the matter said.

Q. I have a 1998 Ford Crown Victoria that is losing coolant, I have checked the system for leaks and haven’t found any. Even after being parked for a few days there are no wet spots on the ground. The oil is clean with no signs of no moisture in it. I am adding about a quart of coolant a week, what is the issue.
A. The problem is most likely a leaking cylinder head gasket. The standard procedure is to pressure test the cooling system and if the system holds pressure, then the next step is to look for an internal leak. You can purchase a kit that uses a special chemical to look for exhaust gases in the cooling system. These kits are $35-$50 and are easy to use and quite accurate.
Q. My daughter has a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid. Lately the car has started to vibrate/slide as she brakes, as if the ABS system is engaging even though the road is clear and dry. The light with the squiggly lines will appear briefly. No other lights activate. Our mechanic has been able to experience the issue but has not been able to fix the issue. Any advice?
A. The anti-lock brake system uses sensors at each wheel that monitor wheel rotation. What you describe as a phantom ABS application can usually be traced to a rusted or cracked ABS tone wheel. A careful inspection and some testing should be able to pinpoint the problem.
Q. My Mazda 2014 CX-9 has about 55,000 miles on it. During a couple of four-hour drives on the highway I noticed a hum coming from the car. After some novice detective work figured it to be the right rear wheel bearing/hub was the problem. I removed the assembly and replaced it with a “sorry to say” economy brand part I purchased online. I road tested it and for about 300 miles of highway driving, no sounds. Unfortunately, after a few hundred more miles the same “hum” is back, although less intense. I did more internet research, and some comments were that this brand failed prematurely. And other sites mentioned a bit of a sophisticated install process. The replacement of this bearing hub is straightforward: remove defective part and install replacement. Four bolts hold the assembly to the rear axle assembly, and you just remove and reinstall the axel nut. Mixed recommendations on the torque specs for the axel nut: 200ftlbs/258ftlbs. Do you think I just got a lemon part? Did I install it incorrectly? Not like the old days when you’d repack the wheel bearings and “set” them with rotating the wheel and tightening and backing off the holding nut.
A. I suspect you may have gotten an inferior part. You are correct the replacement of the bearing is fairly simple. According to AllData the technical database I use, the attachment bolts should be tightened to 58–75-foot pounds and the axle nut is tightened to 175-202 foot pounds of torque.
Q. I have three simple questions that I can’t get an answer for so I’m coming to you. What window wash fluid do you recommend, especially in the cold Northeast states, are there any window treatment products do you recommend that shed water or prevent fogging and are gas additives worth the money? My car is a 2015 Kia Soul, but I’m sure the advice applies to most cars.
A. When choosing windshield washer fluid (which is basically soap, water and alcohol) look for fluid that will protect against freezing to at least 20 degrees below zero. Some fluids will have additives that do a better job of removing bugs and other debris and some will bead water. What ever fluid you choose, the best results come from a clean windshield. Clean the windshield inside and out with a good quality window cleaner and then go over the windshield with a clean microfiber cloth. Regarding window treatments, I have tried some and had mixed results, so I tend to stay away from them. If you are trying to prevent fogging, first make sure your defroster is set to fresh air. Fogging happens when there is a temperature differential of the inside and outside of the windshield. A DIY method to prevent fogging is to clean the window with shaving foam. I haven’t tried it on my car but it works on my bathroom mirror. Regarding fuel additives, adding a fuel injector cleaner periodically and using a gas line antifreeze just before cold winter temperatures can’t hurt, although typically not necessary if you use quality fuel and keep the fuel tak at least half full to prevent moisture.
Q. My 2008 Suzuki XL7, runs great but the RPM (idle speed) will dip or hesitate? Again, it runs great on the highway. I think it’s the timing belt or serpentine belt is off, what do you think?
A. A worn timing or serpentine won’t cause an engine to idle poorly. I suspect there is a fuel issue. This could be a clogged/dirty fuel injector, vacuum leak or even a sticking exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve.
Q. Let me first say that I enjoy the insight that comes from you on both your radio show and Newsday. My question is about thread sealant. When doing routine repairs on my vehicles (brakes, suspension etc.) is it advisable to use thread sealant as an additional measure of safety or is it ok to just tighten nuts and bolts according to manufacturer’s specification?
A. Topically use a thread locker (Loctite is one) when that bolt is under extreme stress or instructed to by the vehicle manufacturer. If the fasteners are something that is something that are removed periodically, I wouldn’t use thread locker, just tighten to manufactures specifications.
