So here is another game that I wonder how well it will take off. So heres the rules, it can be with regards to any part of the car, any aspect of the car and any car for that matter, its just a brainteasing session, whoever gets the teaser right, gets to pose the next one! These are Car Conundrums and so should remain motor vehicle related, and you must have a pointer clue in the name as to where the answer can be found (and it cant be "Haynes Manual" :P)

So heres the first brainteaser - Good luck!

I start high lower down the speedo, but get lower as the speedo gets higher and I reset between gears

I am two words, and can be found on Torque....

What am I?

    Instant fuel is a good one, and to be fair is also a valid answer, so I will accept that one! the one I had in mind was in fact Engine Load. The lower the revs the higher the engine load, as it progresses through the gear, the engine load decreases :)

    Clive you did offer a valid answer, so the floor is yours! :)

    It's been a difficult enough task trying to think of something but here goes.

    I have a round cross section and you don't always get out as much as you put in.

    It's a crucial component that if removed your car would be useless
