Geocache Description:

Automotive Maintenance - The Eagle Scout Series

This is one of the elective merit badges that a scout can select to complete.

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

I hope you like hiking. You will be doing a lot of that during this series of caches as you work your way toward finding the Eagle Scout Cache.

Automotive Maintenance is something that I have come to do, mainly because I can't afford to pay someone to work on my cars. They are always having problems.

To find this cache, find the answers to these questions and then build the coordinates N 39 58.ABC W 111 40.XY

Review the requirements for this merit badge and use the requirement number for the answers.

A = Which requirement has you demonstrate how to safely connect jumper cables to your car battery (among other things)?

B = Which requirement has you explain the need for coolant in the cooling system (among other things)?

C = Which requirement has you explain how the air and fuel systems work together and why it is necessary to have an air filter and fuel filter (among other things)?

X = Which requirement has you explain the difference between automatic and standard transmissions (among other things)?

Y = Which requirement has you perform an oil filter and oil change on a vehicle (among other things)?
