Can a weak battery effect the way my engine idles and runs? It sounds bad after sound system was installed.?

I am not sure if the guy at Car Toys drilled into the gas tank or something else when he grounded out the system or if it is something else but I noticed a hissing sound coming from under my car as soon as I got to my friends house after the installation. I was freaking out for a bit and then it stopped only to come back after we got back from getting a bite to eat. I have a Hyundai Genesis 2011. We got out of the car to make sure the noise hadn't returned and sure enough it had. My car sounded more like a damn lawn mower rather than its normal purring sound. On top of that the hissing sound was almost as if there was air leaking out of something. We came to the conclusion that if it wasn't a hole in the gas tank, then it had to be the fuel line or something. We examined it and after awhile we turned the engine off for a few minutes. When we turned it back on the hissing noise was gone and the exhaust sounded better but the engine was clicking pretty hard only subtly however. It still has a factory battery in it.
It's a 700 watt mono block amp and I'm running one 12" subwoofer. I'm almost positive the battery is going low bc at one point I could run the ignition for 10 minutes at a time without the warning coming on and now even if I get in the car for 1 minute with the ignition on it gives me a warning telling me to start my engine. Another note: I was driving home tonight and I stomped on the accelerator a little bit to see if it had limited power and sure enough it seemed like it wasn't near as responsive and the exhaust sounded really bad. It didn't feel like the same car...

Answer
I would look for a loose vacuum line or maybe a disconnected sensor in the engine bay, he may have disconnected something when connecting power to the system and forgot to plug it back in.

How good is the toro supper bagger?

Garry_Mitc

I am thinking of getting a toro super bagger with Honda 160 engine. The other is a Honda hrx mower. What are your opinions so I can choose the mower? Thanks

Answer
I'd go with recommendations by Consumer Reports. They just came out with their latest reviews of the top lawn mowers for this year and several Toro mowers are on top of the list. The Toro Super Bagger 20192 is one of their top "Recommended" mowers.

Some of the Toro mowers mentioned are:

Toro Super Recycler Self-Propelled Mower 20092
Toro Super Bagger 20192
Toro Recycler 20333 (this was on last year's list as a "best buy" also)

What type of Lawnmower should I get?

best lawn mower reviews image

James

So im clueless when it comes to lawnmowers and I need help on which type is best for my yard.
Right now my yard is HUGE. Its big, it has rocks on some parts with grass over it, it has a slope, and a swing set on it. And to make it worse, I have an ancient lawn mower, its big, heavy and has starting up problems. Its also torture when I have to go around and around the swing set trying to get all the grass from it. And that mini hill on my backyard makes it even harder.
So Im planning to get a lawnmower that fights my lawn the most, Ive went on amazon and looked at reviews but haven't found anything very useful in terms of my particular yard.
Im looking for a cheap, and light lawn mower (any lawn mowers probably lighter than the one I have)
This one looks really good:
http://www.amazon.com/American-1304-14-14-Inch-Economy-T-Style/dp/B000NHTH0O/ref=lp_128066011_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1368999624&sr=1-15

but should I get more a lawn mower more like this one:?

http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-LM175-18-Inch-Electric/dp/B00005AKZE/ref=lp_128066011_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1368999624&sr=1-10

any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated =)

Answer
I got an electric and had it for years. I remember the reel mower (and that is the light flimsy model). When the neck is2x3 wood, everything else is heavy duty steel. Probably the weight of two of the red mowers.

So, don't cut as often. Like let the grass grow over 2 inches in height and then cut it so it is 2" high. I cut maybe 8 times a season. And it stays green because the soil does not dry out quickly because the grass shades the ground.

If you need to work on your thighs, belly and knees...you go for the red one

If you are skinny then either will do

If you are a lazy good for nothing then get a riding tractor mower.
