What do the numbers on the side of a tire stand for?

Answer The numbers on the side of tires mean the sizes and heights of the tire in question. If the numbers weren't there no one would know the tire size. More exactly... Taking 195/75R14 as an example...The first number is the measurment in milimeters of the widest part of the tread- The second number is the height of the sidewall in relation to the first number expressed as a percentage (the height of the tire is 75% of the first number) and the last number behind the R is the rim size in inches.


How do you make 10000 revolutions per hour to miles per hour?

you cant that's 2 different things Depending on the size of the tire... revolutions in a car RPM are talking about the engines crank shaft RPM... now if you want to measure that in Speed... you will need to do the convertion to the size of the tire since MILE is a distance and Revolution is a spin... If you want to measure the size of the crankshaft... well easy... take out the shaft from your car and start rotating it in a street until you reach 10000... that is the distance... as per the time.. do the math 10000 in one minute... there will be a lot of 0 in your result.

The 3.1 engine has a crankshaft sensor behind the crankshaft pulley. Remove right front tire and inner splash panel for access. There is a second sensor on the back side (firewall side) of the engine above the oil pan on the block- near the center. Difficult to each. Bad news if you break this sensor since it can be brittle and difficult to extract if it breaks.
