Can you solve this week's puzzler?

This Week's Puzzler

Synonyms

Puzzler time. Here we go. 

As we all know, there are probably 1000s of automotive terms, words that are associated with automobiles. 

We are looking for those precious few words whose secondary meanings, their non-automotive meanings are synonymous with another word which is also part of a car. That wasn't very clear...

We are looking for pairs of words that are parts or systems of your car whose secondary meanings happen to be synonyms. 

Here is an example. 

The word tire and the word exhaust. 

The first meaning of these words is automotive. But the second meaning of these words, to be tired or exhausted, are synonyms. 

Their automotive meanings don't have anything to do with each other. But their secondary meanings are synonyms. 

Here is another example.

The word booster and the word fan. Automotive meaning is different, secondary meaning are synonyms. 

Another one, cable and transmission. 

So with all these examples, we are looking for pairs of words that have automotive meanings, but their secondary meanings are synonyms.

Good luck.

Answer the Puzzler »
Remember last week's puzzler?

The Missing Dollar

Here we go.

Three guys check into a motel in the middle of nowhere. They are running from the law and they have to lay low for a night.

They are really strapped for cash so they decide to share one room. The approach the front desk clerk and he tells them that one room will be $30. This is the cheapest motel ever. 

So, they each give the clerk $10 and then they go to the room. 

After they leave, the clerk realizes that he overcharged them. They were having a special on rooms, and the price was supposed to be $25, not $30. So, he gives the bellboy $5 and asks him to return this to the three guys, since he overcharged them. 

So the bellboy takes the $5, and as he is heading to the room, he thinks to himself, "Well, there are three guys, and $5. They won't be able to split this evenly, so I'm going to keep $2, and give them $3." So that's what he does. 

He says to them, "Here's $3. You were overcharged for the room." And they say, "Thank you very much." He leaves having pocketed $2.

So here is the question. 

They each spent $10 to start off with. Then they each get back $1. So they each spent $9 on the room. And 9 times 3 is 27. Plus the $2 that the bellboy stole. That all equals $29. 

So, what happened to the other dollar? Since they originally spent $30?
