Brilio.net - For vehicle users, automotive knowledge is necessary. At least if it can't be put into practice, you know the theory.
It is important to know the various components of the vehicle, as well as understand if the vehicle is experiencing certain problems with the engine, electricity or body. If you don't know anything at all, you might be in trouble if your vehicle suddenly has problems in the middle of the road, even though the repair shop is still far away.
Usually, in the automotive world you will be introduced to various tips and tricks . In fact, there are also those who do lifehacks on vehicles. Like what a tire repair mechanic did in the following viral video.

In the video shown, the man is seen opening around 4 sachets of coffee and pouring them into a teapot filled with water. After stirring, it turned out that this coffee was not meant for the mechanic to enjoy.
Instead, the coffee liquid is put into the hole through a funnel and hose attached to the tire valve. This initially confused the video recorder. He thought that this method seemed careless rather than serious.

However, as if he didn't want to pay attention to the person who recorded it, the mechanic still put all the coffee liquid into the tire. In the next moment, the car tires were dipped into the pool to check for leaks.
Seeing this strange trick, quite a few netizens were surprised and also wrote about it in the comments column. However, some also explained that this method is useful as a trick to prevent car tires from leaking.

Just finished reading Wikipedia, it turns out it's valid, surely the older brother likes to read for fun on his cell phone when he has the time free, until I know detailed things like this ," wrote the account @bobciaw.
" His brother is also smart. He must have liked studying physics. Coffee contains caffeine. Caffeine is a stimulant that stimulates the work and activity of the nervous system. The refreshing effect and loss of drowsiness is very beneficial for tired and sleepy tires during long journeys. Yes. I see, " wrote the account @seasia.news to explain, but the ending was inconsequential.
Meanwhile, there is no research that says that coffee grounds can help repair vehicle tire leaks. The reason is, basically coffee liquid is not an adhesive material. Meanwhile, a punctured tire needs to be reattached with a permanent patch.
