How to Fix Engine Overheating
How to Fix Engine Overheating
Got a car engine that is overheating? When you see your engine temperature gauge on the hot side or see a warning light on or smell something hot stop the engine immediately. We are a team of ASE certified mechanics that have created this guide for you to repair the overheating problem yourself or see what you paying for when taking your car into a garage to be fixed.
What Goes Wrong?
The engine cooling system is designed to help the engine maintain a particular operating temperature of between 205° F and 220° F (96°C - 104°C). When the system leaks or has some kind of mechanical failure it will allow the engine to run over the recommended temperature which can cause major engine damage such as:
Blown head gasket
Cracked cylinder head
Cracked engine block
Seized pistons
Collapsed piston rings
How Does it Work?
The cooling system is a pressurized, sealed circulation system that consists of eight major components:
Radiator -
Reduces temperature of the coolant for the engine
Water or coolant pump -
Circulates coolant throughout the engine and radiator
Thermostat -
Stops the coolant from flowing until the engine is warm
Coolant or antifreeze -
Acts as a cooling agent and provides freeze and rust protection
Coolant Hoses -
Transfers the coolant from the engine to the radiator
Radiator cooling fan -
Draws air thought the radiator for cooling
Pressure cap -
Holds pressure on the cooling system
Reservoir -
Holds expansion coolant when the engine gets hot and then allows to coolant to be drawn back into the system when cold.
The engine operating temperature is maintained using a thermostat which is designed to stop the coolant flow when the engine is cold. Once the desired temperature is obtained the thermostat opens automatically allowing the coolant to flow into the radiator and cool the engine. Coolant is used to transfer heat from the engine to the radiator to maintain the engine temperature. Coolant is also used to prevent corrosion which can damage internal engine parts such as gaskets and block and cylinder head castings. A cooling system is held under pressure at about 16 to 18 psi while the engine is at operation temperature. System pressure helps the coolant gain a higher boiling temperature one degree for every two pounds of pressure. For example; when a cooling system is held at 18 pounds of pressure it raises the boiling point by 9 degrees.
Let's Get Started!
Begin with the car parked on level ground with the parking brake set. The following steps are presented in order of popularity.
Step 1: Check the Cooling System Pressure and Level
The cooling system must maintain pressure or the engine will overheat. The easiest way to check the operation of the cap is when the engine is warm grasp the upper radiator hose and squeeze it. You should be able to feel pressure in the system. When the engine is cold no pressure will be present in this case you can remove the cap for testing. If there is no pressure present the system has a leak or the cap has failed and needs replacement.
To check the coolant level start by observing the level that is in the coolant reservoir. If the coolant level is a little low it will need to be added to which is normal over time. Slowly remove the reservoir or radiator cap, a small amount of pressure maybe released which is normal. If the reservoir is empty the
system could have a coolant leak
or the system is just extremely low. Some cars use the coolant reservoir cap to hold pressure on the system while others depend on the radiator cap to maintain system pressurization.
Step 2: Check the Cooling Fan Operation
A radiator cooling fan is used to move air through the radiator cooling fins which helps cool the engine. If this fan stops operating the engine will overheat or run hot. The cooling fan is located directly behind the radiator and is used to pull air through the radiator at lower vehicle speeds to keep the engine from overheating. Cooling fans can either be mechanical which are belt driven by the engine or electric motors mounted on the radiator both are controlled by temperature. There are two ways to check an electric motor cooling fan. Start with the engine and ignition key switched off and spin the fan blade by hand, it should "freewheel" and spin easily. Next, start the engine and turn the air conditioner to the coldest setting. Within one minute of the car air conditioner operating the cooling fans should activate. If not the fan motor fuse must be checked first. If the fuse condition is okay check the cooling fan relay. If these items check out okay the
radiator fan motor has gone bad and needs replacement
. Cooling fan motor failures are common.
If your car is not designed with an electric fan it will have a thermo fan clutch which is attached to the water pump and driven by the engine. This device engages and disengages the fan blade via a temperature sensor at the center of the clutch. When this component goes bad it fails to "lock up" which diminishes the fan blade performance causing the engine to overheat by allowing the blade to freewheel. When the engine is hot this clutch should engage being followed by a roaring sound as the fan starts to work. If the engine is hot and you can see the blade freewheeling the clutch fan has gone bad and needs replacement.
Step 3: Replace the Thermostat
The thermostat will not allow the coolant to flow into the radiator when the engine is cold. When the thermostat goes bad it will do so by sticking closed. This means the coolant never gets a chance to be circulated through the radiator. When this failure occurs the engine will overheat rapidly usually within the first fifteen minutes of driving and can be accompanied by a thumping sound as the hot coolant is trying to mix with the cold coolant in the radiator. Do not open the radiator to check the coolant level allow the
engine to cool then replace the thermostat
Step 4: Checking the Radiator
The radiator is responsible for dropping the temperature of the engine coolant and can fail in a few different ways. First is external blockage, because your car goes down the road which is constantly bombarded with debris such as; dirt, hair, leaves and bugs to name a few, the cooling fins become plugged stopping air travel through the radiator core causing the engine to overheat. This condition can be hard to detect because the air conditioner condenser sits in front of the radiator. Use a flashlight to help you see in between them from the side or bottom bottom. You can use a garden hose to pressure wash the radiator from the backside facing forward (back flush) to help alleviate this problem.
With the engine cold remove the radiator cap and inspect inside. You may need to drain some of the coolant out or use a flashlight to see the ends of the radiator core tubes. In the example below the tube is clear with no corrosion around the end of the tube. When a radiator plugs internally these tubes become clogged with calcium stopping the coolant flow which inhibits the radiator's cooling ability. When the cooling system has been neglected this condition will occur and cause the engine to overheat in which case
the radiator must be replaced
. This condition generally occurs gradually over time and will be more noticeable when climbing a grade or in warmer weather.
Step 5: Check the Head Gasket
A head gasket is used to seal the combustion process within the engine block and cylinder head. This gasket is prone to failure due to natural engine block and cylinder head expansion. Heat and corrosion can cause failure which is produced by a process called electrolysis. This can cause coolant to enter the engine and exhaust gasses to be forced into the cooling system which displaces the coolant from the system. This problem is becoming more popular as engine components such as engine blocks and cylinders heads become more lightweight. Fortunately to
test for a blown head gasket
is a simple process. When this gasket fails it can also cause a rough running engine at start up.
Step 5: Checking the Coolant Pump
The water or coolant pump is a mechanical pump which is responsible for circulating coolant throughout the radiator and into the engine which is driven by the engine serpentine or timing belt or by the timing chain. On most hybrid gasoline engine's this pump is powered by an electric motor. When a water pump fails it can do so in one of two ways. First it can cause a leak which is what happens when it's shaft seal fails or when the shaft bearings fail destroying the seal. This can sometimes be accompanied by squeaking, squealing or a rattling sound. A water pump will typically last between 50,000 and 80,000 miles.
In some instances the impeller of the pump will become dislodged stopping the pumping action. There are only two way to check for this problem, the first is open the radiator and watch for the coolant to flow inside the radiator while the engine is at operating temperature. The second and more difficult way is to drain the system and remove the pump for a physical inspection.
Step 5: Transmission Cooler
Automatic transmission vehicles utilize a fluid cooler inside the radiator to help remove heat from the transmission fluid. When this cooler fails it will allow transmission to contaminate the coolant inside of the cooling system which inhibits the heat transfer of the coolant. This problem is easy to check for, simply open the radiator or reservoir cap when the engine is cold and look for a pink milky substance. If found the system will need to be drained and flushed along with a new radiator installed. As a side note if this condition exists the transmission fluid may need to be flushed and changed as well. This is because the radiator maintains its pressure when the engine is shut off. In turn the transmission fluid pressure drops to zero which allows coolant to be pushed into the transmission fluid lines and into the transmission.
Step 6: Engine Oil Cooler
Some engines are designed with an engine oil cooler to reduce heat by way of the engine oil. This is achieved by running engine coolant through the cooling fins of the cooler to reduce heat. When this cooler fails it can cause engine oil to be released into the cooling system in much the same way as when a transmission cooler fails and can be checked in the same fashion but instead of pink milky goo it will be tan or brown in the reservoir or radiator in which case the engine oil and radiator coolant should be changed along with the engine oil cooler.
Step 7: Catalytic Converter
When a catalytic converter starts to fail it can partially plug up which causes the engine to have less power. To compensate for this low power condition the driver will increase the throttle which creates excessive heat overloading the cooling system. This condition is always be accompanied by low engine power. To
test the cat converter use a infrared temperature
tester to monitor the ingoing and out going temperatures.
Quick Facts
Car manufacturers have found that a 195° thermostat is optimum for efficiency. Below this threshold the catalytic converter will not work properly which will produce increased emissions. In the early years of automobiles water was used for the cooling system. Water is the most efficient fluid to absorb and dissipate heat. The disadvantage of using water is that it freezes at lower temperatures and causes rust inside the engine.

Hi Loic
Would you believe that some of your "reliable" rebloomers , that I grow,
have never rebloomed for me. Eg Vic Falls, Blue Suede Shoes.
Breakers, Honey Glazed, Renown (which I threw away because it was so ugly)
and Low Ho Silver do very occasionally. Forever Blue won't survive in out
hot climate.
Do you mean Candy Walk or Candy Rock? Candy Rock blooms extremely early for
us but has never rebloomed other than the year I imported it when it was
very confused.

Hello John,
I have chosen to go for Rebloomers precisely for the reasons you are giving!
I was SO FURIOUS not to see the so-called rebloomers do anything and just
me all the time that i have decided to beat them at their own game!
With the help of the reliable ones, such as Low Ho Silver, Angel Heart,
Forever Blue, Midsummer's eve, Charabia, What Again, Immortality, Starship,
I'll be Back, I'm Back, Champagne encore, Hot, Frankincense, Cry Baby,

Lenora Pearl, Blessed Again, Concoction, Bonus, Candy walk, Honey Glazed,
Autumn Tangerine, Baby Prince, Bright Eyes, Gypsy Boy, Derive, Best Bet,
Suede Shoes, Breakers, Pink Attraction, Earl of Essex, Renown, Victoria
Banana Cream, Returning Chameleon, Dark Crystal, Cheeky, Over and Over,
Skyking Returns............. i must stop now, but there are so many here!
It will be long, but i'm sure something good will come out of it.
Even if only ONE of my seedlings makes it and reblooms in zone 3, i'll be
My biggest issue will be the space, they need time to show their talents,
more time in the ground means less space for seedling.
We'll see!
By the way, it also makes me furious, when so-called rebloomers,( in fact
should be called "fall-bloomers" ), refuse to bloom in the spring....but
is another story....

I can understand why the general gardening public wants reblooming irises.
Irises are beautiful, and the "ratty, boring" foliage one has to look at
summer and fall is easily justified with rebloom. Again, this is speaking
for the general gardener. I live in an area where rebloom is sparse even
a good year for it when you do all the right things and the weather
cooperates. I hear many local folks complain about "supposedly a
or "never rebloomed for me".
I wonder how many folks are turned away from non-performing irises because
they think it is just a marketing ploy or that it requires too much work
get rebloom? I agree that education about rebloom would counteract much of
this. It would also help if commercial sellers would not advertise
everything that reblooms in sunny southern California as a rebloomer,
because that is a unique climate.
As a Zone 5 garden and seller of irises I can truthfully say I NEVER list
anything as a rebloomer. Why? Because I owe it to my customer to deliver
what is advertised. If I can't count on something to perform for me, I can
not make a promise to my customer that it will do so for them.
I am not at all against rebloom. However, as a person who attempts to
hybridize, I never focus on rebloom. Space is limited, I can't really test
for the trait in my seedlings, and so I make crosses with my preferences
form, vigor and color in mind. If a reblooming parent gets in there it is
fine, but I never select a parent for that trait. I introduced BLACKMAIL
last year. It has never even attempted to put up a rebloom stalk for me in
the 8 years that it was grown here, but a piece that was sent to
sent up a fall stalk. I still would never list it as a rbloomer.
Betty W. lives about 3 hours or so due south of me, and frost hits there
about 3 weeks after it does here. It does get cold where she is, but the
length of season allows her to work with rebloom. Irises may indeed need
move in the direction of rebloom to remain relevant to more than just
collectors, but keep in mind that there is still about 25% of the
and population who live where a ***LOT*** of work will have to be done to
make REbloom a relevant feature in irises :)
No feathers ruffled, just a different perspective.

The judge's comments were broadcast two days before Sally Croft and Susan Hagan were due to be extradited to the US, fuelling defence lawyers' fears their chances of a fair trial have been compromised.
In the broadcast, which would not have been allowed in Britain, Charles Turner, a former US attorney but now a part-time judge in Oregon, said he had a premonition of a plot to kill him, so he slept with a shotgun and pistol. He gave details of how conspirators planned to kill him. He was never harmed.
Ms Croft, 44, an accountant, and Ms Hagan, 47, an aromatherapist, were members of the Bhagwan Rajneesh sect in Antelope, Oregon, in the mid- 1980s when a number of members allegedly plotted to kill Mr Turner, who was investigating their activities.
Several members of the sect have been convicted of fraud, wire-tapping and poisoning people in a restaurant. Only one person admitted to a conspiracy. Ms Hagan and Ms Croft were named as conspirators five years after the plot was first uncovered and say that they played no part in it.
They were due to be handed over to US marshals on Thursday but were given a reprieve on Wednesday when a High Court judge gave them leave to appeal against extradition.

Path of Exile's Act 3 Revealed, Open Beta in December17 Oct 2012
- Category: News Archive

The Mysteries Deepen in Action RPG Path of Exile's Third Act
AUCKLAND, New Zealand – 17 October 2012 – Upcoming dark and deep indie action RPG Path of Exile has unveiled details of its Act 3 expansion. Set in the ruined city of Sarn, players will face those who exiled them to Wraeclast and how it was corrupted.
Act 3 will become available when Path of Exile enters Open Beta in December. The game is currently in Closed Beta but has already raised over USD$1.2m in crowd-funded support, with those supporters gaining beta access.
PvP arena combat will be introduced in the next major patch, making the wait for Act 3 more bearable but bloodier. The game's gigantic skill tree and skill gem combo system means thousands of unique character builds will be able to challenge each other.
"Act 3 adds an extra 50% of content to Path of Exile's world,†says Grinding Gear Games producer Chris Wilson. "Our already gritty game gets a lot darker as players explore Sarn and witness the full extent of the corruption and cataclysm. High-level characters will really enjoy some of the enemy encounters and combat challenges.â€
Path of Exile's lore and mysteries deepens as you explore Sarn's abandoned docks, markets, temples and sewers. For reasons unknown, General Gravicius and the Ebony Legion have sailed from your homeland Oriath to scour Sarn for its secrets, joining Piety of Theopolis in a race against the player to plunder Sarn's tombs for wealth and power.
In the Solaris Temple, a magical army of floating constructs known as the Ribbons continually sterilize the temple even as the centuries wear on. Even though thaumaturgist Malachai the Soulless is long dead, evidence of his dark experiments remain.
In addition to undead, magical constructs and corrupted horrors, players will encounter some unlikely allies. An encampment of exiles survive on the man-made island in the middle of the river, led by wise and well-spoken Karui warrior Maramoa.
When released, the game will be free to play, but not 'pay-to-win'. The game is currently in a Closed Beta, but fans who pre-purchase at least USD$10 of credit for the game's 'ethical microtransactions' receive a beta key. Beta keys are also regularly awarded to random community members.

About Sarn: A shattered city, a sinister mystery, a land tainted with insanity.
You're standing at the edge of Sarn, the ruined capital of the Eternal Empire. Not so eternal now. Its citizenry is gone, taken by death and undeath in equal measures. Where hawkers shouted their bargains, ladies browsed for silks, young lovers walked hand in hand... creatures of nightmare stalk and feed. Beasts born of corruption. The restless dead, bitter and lethal. A cursed city of painful promises and preternatural peril.
You are an exile, banished for your crimes to Wraeclast, and given a life sentence in the land of the damned. But Wraeclast wasn't always like this. It was once an empire of ten million souls, a beautiful and bountiful continent that prospered for more than a thousand years.
Something happened. A cataclysm. A corruption beyond reason. Wraeclast took itself off to bed one balmy evening and, come morning, it failed to wake. It slumbers, tossing and turning in the perpetual nightmare that enslaved it during the darkest hours.
Players must fight their way through the necropolis to answer a question: Who murdered Wraeclast?
You're not alone in your curiosity. Others explore the twisted capital city of the Eternal Empire. The Ebony Legion has sailed from Oriath to scour Sarn for its secrets... avaricious maggots on a fecund carcass. General Gravicius plunders its tombs for wealth and power.
Piety of Theopolis harnesses corruption like a lover to her bedhead. Her lovely visage hides an imagination most monstrous.
Is everyone and everything in Sarn out to kill or maim you beyond recognition? Pretty much... with a few exceptions. As a fellow exile, Hargan, will tell you: "Welcome to dirty, old Sarn, the metropolis of opportunity. The opportunity to make something of yourself or the opportunity to have a very messy death.â€
Key features of 'Path of Exile':
• A dark and deep action RPG
• Build unlimited unique characters on a gigantic skill tree
• Combine over 110 skill gems to create unique combat strategies
• Explore a dark and gritty world rendered from a fixed 3D perspective

Recovery Act:
Consistent Policies Needed to Ensure Equal Consideration of Grant Applications
GAO-09-590R: Published: Apr 29, 2009. Publicly Released: Apr 29, 2009.

(202) 512-6520
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Grants.gov is the central grant identification and application portal for the more than 1,000 federal grants programs offered by 26 federal grant-making agencies and organizations. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) created Grants.gov, to streamline administrative grant application requirements and reduce the burden on applicants, among other things. On March 6, 2009, Grants.gov began posting specific grant opportunities provided in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act). As a result, submissions have escalated to an unprecedented level. During the first week in April, Grants.gov processed almost 11,500 applications, or about three times the weekly average number of submissions in fiscal year 2008. One day that week Grants.gov accepted 3,555 applications--the largest 1-day total to date. On March 9, 2009, OMB notified federal agencies that over the past several months Grants.gov had experienced increased activity beyond what was originally anticipated by the system, which had at times resulted in noticeably degraded performance. OMB further noted that given the expected increase in application volume because of the Recovery Act, the system was at significant risk of failure, thus potentially hampering Recovery Act implementation. To reduce demand on the Grants.gov system and to assist applicants in the short term, OMB instructed federal grant-making agencies to identify alternate methods for accepting grant applications during the peak period of the Recovery Act, with a focus on minimizing any disruption to the grants application processes. OMB and agencies estimate that this peak period will last from April through about August 2009. Alternate methods for applying include agency-specific electronic systems (i.e., non-Grants.gov electronic systems run by a grantor agency), e-mail, fax, and mail. On April 8, 2009, OMB issued another memorandum stating that the existing Grants.gov infrastructure will not be able to handle the influx of applications expected as key Recovery Act deadlines approach. OMB said that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the federal agency that operates and maintains Grants.gov, and the General Services Administration (GSA), which serves as the facilitator of governmentwide solutions, are working together to initiate urgent improvements to the system, and that each grant-making agency is being asked to cover a proportionate share of these improvements. Based on our ongoing work on Grants.gov, Congress asked us to issue two reports: one immediately on our initial observations on improving grant submission policies that could help minimize disruptions to the grants application process during the Recovery Act's peak filing period, and the second in June 2009 addressing in more detail systemic issues with Grants.gov and implications of varying agency policies for processing application submissions.
OMB created Grants.gov (initially known as e-Grants) in response to the Federal Financial Assistance Management Improvement Act of 1999, commonly referred to by the grants community and OMB as Public Law 106-107. Public Law 106-107 sought to improve coordination among federal grantor agencies and their nonfederal partners. It required federal grant-making agencies to streamline and simplify the application, administrative, and reporting procedures for their programs. The act also required OMB to direct, coordinate, and assist agencies in developing and implementing a common application and reporting system that included electronic processes with which a nonfederal entity can apply for multiple grant programs that serve similar purposes but are administered by different federal agencies. OMB has acknowledged the importance of Grants.gov in successfully implementing the Recovery Act. By working with agencies to initiate immediate improvements to Grants.gov and requiring agencies to identify alternate methods for accepting grant applications, OMB has played a critical role in minimizing disruptions to the grants application process. OMB and the Grants.gov staff have worked quickly to mitigate an impending system failure and protect the flow of Recovery Act grant funds to struggling communities around the country. However, applicants lack a centralized source of information on how and when to use these alternatives, rendering them less effective than they otherwise might be in reducing the strain on a system already suffering from seriously degraded performance. Moreover, inconsistent agency policies for grant closing times, what constitutes a timely application, when and whether applicants are notified of the status of their applications, and the basis on which applicants can appeal a late application create confusion and uncertainty for applicants and could result in an application being treated differently depending on how it is submitted--results that are contrary to OMB's stated purposes for recent efforts to improve Grants.gov and to the streamlining goals of Public Law 106-107 in general.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: During the peak application period (March through August 2009), a notice was posted prominently on Recovery.gov which notified applicants that some agencies were accepting applications through alternate methods. This language of the notice was not targeted to applicants who could not register on Grants.gov, although all of those applicants may have seen it.
Recommendation: To increase the likelihood that applicants can successfully apply for grants during the Recovery Act's peak application filing period, the Director of OMB should ensure that an announcement discussing agency alternate submission methods similar to that recently posted on Grants.gov is posted in a prominent location on Recovery.gov and on all federal Web sites or in all documents where instructions for applying to Recovery Act grants are presented. Such announcements, including the one on Grants.gov, should also include guidance for applicants that try to submit through Grants.gov but cannot successfully register and are therefore unable to submit timely applications.
Agency Affected: Executive Office of the President: Office of Management and Budget
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: The peak application lasted from March through August 2009. OMB confirmed that this recommendation has not yet been implemented. Since the recommendation expired after the peak application period, it is being closed without implementation.
Recommendation: To increase the likelihood that applicants can successfully apply for grants during the Recovery Act's peak application filing period, the Director of OMB should implement and prominently post the following governmentwide policies, effective immediately, for all grant applications submitted during the peak filing period for Recovery Act grants: (1) To the extent permissible by law, applications received at any point on the stated grant opportunity closing date should be considered timely. (2) Agencies must notify an applicant when an application submission has been received and if the application has been deemed late. An applicant that submits electronically (including by e-mail or fax) should receive automatic confirmation, including a date and time stamp. (3) Applicants whose applications have been deemed late should be given an opportunity to provide supporting documentation to demonstrate that they attempted to submit an application on time. Proof of timely submission could include (a) e-mail confirmation of receipt from the electronic system used to submit the application, (b) system time stamps from the electronic system used to submit the application, or (c) a dated postmark or receipt from the U.S. Postal Service or a commercial delivery service.

Distributor & Wholesaler License - California Cigarette & Tobacco Products Licensing Act of 2003
Please note: these requirements do not apply to any product containing, made, or derived from nicotine that is intended for human consumption; any electronic smoking or vaping device that delivers nicotine or other vaporized liquids; or any component, part, or accessory of a tobacco product, whether or not sold separately, as there are currently no cigarette and tobacco products licensing requirements for distributors, wholesalers, or importers of these types of products.
What is a distributor or wholesaler of cigarette and tobacco products?
A cigarette distributor is a person or company that purchases untaxed (unstamped) cigarettes and makes the first distribution of cigarettes in this state. In general, distributors purchase cigarettes before any California excise tax is due, and then sell stamped cigarettes to wholesalers, other distributors and retailers.
A tobacco products distributor is a person or company that makes the first distribution of tobacco products in this state. In general, distributors purchase tobacco products before any California excise tax is due and then pay the tax when they sell or distribute the tobacco products.
A distribution includes the first sale, use, or consumption of untaxed cigarettes or untaxed tobacco products in California, and the placing of untaxed cigarettes or untaxed tobacco products into a vending machine or retail stock in California (Revenue and Taxation Code section 30008).
A cigarette wholesaler is a person or company, other than a licensed distributor, that sells taxed (stamped) cigarettes, obtained from a licensed distributor or another licensed wholesaler, for resale.
A tobacco products wholesaler is a person, other than a licensed distributor, who sells tax-paid tobacco products for resale. Tobacco products wholesalers cannot purchase or be in possession of untaxed tobacco products.
Who is required to obtain and maintain a Distributor or Wholesaler license?
In accordance with the California Cigarette and Tobacco Products Licensing Act of 2003 (Act) every distributor and every wholesaler (defined in sections 30011 and 30016 of the Revenue and Taxation Code) is required to annually obtain and maintain a cigarette and tobacco products license from the Board of Equalization (BOE) in order to engage in the sale of cigarette and tobacco products in California. This licensing requirement is in addition to other BOE permit and licensing programs that may be required depending on your business operations.
Every distributor and every wholesaler must obtain a cigarette and tobacco products license. Each distributor or wholesaler license has a fee for each location at which cigarettes or tobacco products are located or will be sold. A distributor or wholesaler license is valid for a calendar year and is not assignable or transferable. Each license must be renewed annually. See our tax and fee rates page for the current license fee amount.
Online Registration
You may register for a distributor or wholesaler cigarette and tobacco license, or account using online registration. Online registration is the convenient way to register and is available 24 hours a day.
What are my responsibilities as a holder of a distributor's or wholesaler's license under this Act?
Distributors and wholesalers of cigarettes or tobacco products must:
- Maintain complete and legible cigarette and tobacco product purchase and sales records for four (4) years and keep records (such as invoices and receipts) on file at the location identified on your license for at least one year after the date of purchase or sale.
- Allow BOE or law enforcement agency personnel to review your sales and purchase records upon request.
- Make sure that sales invoices meet all legal requirements. Each sales invoice must be legible, readable, and include the following:
- Your name, address, telephone number, and your distributor or wholesaler license number.
- The name, address, and license number of the business purchasing the cigarettes or tobacco products. You may not legally sell cigarettes or tobacco products to an unlicensed buyer or purchase them from an unlicensed seller.
- The date the cigarettes or tobacco products are sold.
- An itemized list of the cigarettes or tobacco products sold. Cigarettes must be listed by the brand and style names, flavor, filter, and/or packaging when applicable, number of cartons or packs sold, and the sales price. Tobacco products must be listed by brand, type (such as pipe, cigars, or roll-your-own), flavor, packaging (such as pouches, tins, or boxes), quantity sold, and sales price.
- The amount of California excise taxes due to the BOE by the distributor on the sale of cigarettes and tobacco products listed on the invoice. However, a distributor that is also a licensed retailer or manufacturer may include this statement instead of providing the amount of excise taxes due to the BOE: "All California cigarette and tobacco product taxes are included in the total amount of this invoice."
However, a distributor that is also a retailer or manufacturer must include either one of the following on each invoice for the sale of cigarettes or tobacco products:
- A statement that reads: "All California cigarette and tobacco product taxes are included in the total amount of this invoice."
- The amount of excise taxes due to the BOE by the distributor on the distribution of cigarettes and tobacco products.
- A statement that identifies any cigarettes or tobacco products sold without tax under Revenue and Taxation Code section 30105 (only if you are a distributor that is an original importer of the tobacco products you are selling).
Will I need to apply for any other permits?
Depending on your business operations, you may be required to obtain more than just a distributor's or wholesaler's cigarette and tobacco products license. If you are a new distributor or wholesaler you may need to obtain a seller's permit from the BOE for reporting sales and use tax. If you are a distributor or wholesaler that sells directly to consumers you will also need to obtain a cigarette and tobacco products retailer's license in addition to a distributor's or wholesaler's cigarette and tobacco products license. For more information, call the Customer Service Center at 1-800-400-7115.
Enforcement and Penalties
- BOE staff and law enforcement are authorized to conduct inspections of businesses selling cigarette and/or tobacco products in California. They will identify themselves and present their credentials upon entering your business location.
- They will examine the cigarettes and tobacco products at your business location and any other area where you may keep additional inventory. Any untaxed cigarettes or tobacco products found, including cigarettes without tax stamps, with other state stamps, or with counterfeit or reused tax stamps, are subject to seizure.
- Failure to maintain accurate and complete records and include the required information on invoices is a misdemeanor punishable by a fine not to exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000), or imprisonment not to exceed one year in a county jail, or both fine and imprisonment.
- As a distributor or wholesaler, it is not legal for you to purchase cigarettes from a manufacturer or any other person who is not licensed pursuant to this Act, or whose license has been suspended or revoked. Also, you may not sell cigarettes or tobacco products to a distributor, wholesaler, retailer, or any other person who is not licensed with the BOE, or whose license has been suspended or revoked.
Sales, Importation, and Notification Requirements
This Act also adds section 30165.1 to the Revenue and Taxation Code. It requires the Attorney General to compile and publish a directory of cigarette and tobacco manufacturers and brand families. Distributors may not sell, offer, possess for sale, or import for personal consumption any cigarettes or "roll-your-own" tobacco in California unless the manufacturer and brand family are listed in that directory. In addition, it is illegal for a distributor to affix or cause to be affixed any tax stamp or meter impression to a pack of cigarettes or pay the tax on roll-your-own tobacco unless the tobacco product manufacturer and brand family are listed in the directory. Cigarettes or roll-you-own tobacco not listed in that directory are subject to seizure by the BOE and law enforcement agencies. The Attorney General posts the directory on their website.
The Attorney General must provide distributors with written notice of any changes to the directory after it is first published. Since that notice will be sent by e-mail, cigarette and tobacco product distributors must provide an e-mail address to the Attorney General and update it as needed. You may do this by sending an e-mail to their mailbox. You will receive an e-mail acknowledging that the Attorney General has received and recorded your e-mail address.
Distributors that violate these provisions may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and the seizure or forfeiture of any noncompliant product. In addition, we may revoke or suspended your license.
The Investigations Division of the BOE may issue citations to a licensee that is not in compliance with the provisions of the Act or the Cigarette and Tobacco Products Tax Law. Two types of citations may be issued: civil citations and criminal citations. The criminal citation is a Notice to Appear in court. Both types of citations are subject to civil penalties.
Criminal citations are processed through the court system. Depending on the violation(s) cited, the court may impose fines, jail time or both. Once the criminal proceedings are complete, the BOE may impose additional civil penalties.
A civil appeals process is available to the licensee for violations cited, civil penalties imposed, and suspension or revocation of a license. Additional information on the California Cigarette and Tobacco Products Licensing Act of 2003 – Civil Appeals Process is available on our Investigations webapge. You can also review the Frequently Asked Questions regarding the appeals process.
For additional information on penalties for noncompliance and enforcement provisions under this Act, visit the Investigations Division website or contact them by phone at 1-916-324-0105.
No person shall be issued a distributor's license, pursuant to section 30140 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, unless that person has certified in writing that they will fully comply with Revenue and Taxation Code section 30165.1. Your application for a Distributor's License under section 30140 of the Revenue and Taxation Code will not be processed or approved if it is incomplete or submitted without a Compliance Certification, (see Revenue and Taxation Code Section 30165.1) (Form BOE-443).

Violent protests erupted across Nigeria's largely Muslim north yesterday as youths angered at President Goodluck Jonathan's election victory torched churches and homes and set up burning barricades.
The vote count showed that Mr Jonathan, from the oil-producing Niger Delta, had beaten Muhammadu Buhari, a former military ruler from the north, in the first round, with around 57 per cent of votes to Buhari's 31 per cent.
Observers have called the poll the fairest in decades in Africa's most populous nation but Mr Buhari's supporters accuse the ruling party of rigging.
The results show how polarised the country is, with Buhari sweeping the north and Jonathan winning the largely Christian south. Jonathan had nearly 23 million votes to just over 12 million for Buhari.
The Nigerian Red Cross said churches, mosques and homes had been burned in rioting across the north and many people had been killed, but it was impossible to give a toll for now.
"In Kaduna we have seen dead bodies lying by the road," Red Cross official Umar Mairiga told Reuters. "Two thousand people have been displaced at one military camp alone."
Authorities in the northern state of Kaduna imposed a 24-hour curfew after protesters set fire to the residence of Vice President Namadi Sambo in the town of Zaria and forced their way into the central prison, releasing inmates.
The body of a small boy shot in the chest by a stray bullet was brought to a police station.
"They have destroyed our cars and our houses. I had to run for my life and I am now in my neighbour's house," said Dora Ogbebor, a resident of Zaria whose origins are in the south.
Plumes of smoke rose into the air in parts of Kaduna as protesters set fire to barricades of tyres. Security forces fired in the air and used teargas to disperse groups of youths shouting "We want Buhari, we want Buhari".
Police said the violence was political rather than ethnic or religious. Twelve years after the end of military rule, the army said it stood fully behind the government and democratic rule.
Jonathan appealed to all politicians to end violence.
"No one's political ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian," he said in a statement.
Buhari was yet to make any public statement on the violence despite appeals by foreign embassies that he call for calm.

The 36-year old Dempster, who turns 37 in May, is expected to be placed on the restricted list by Boston, meaning that they won't be on the hook for his $13.25 million salary in 2014. This creates an interesting situation for the Red...

Red Sox P Dempster won't play in 2014
Boston Red Sox pitcher Ryan Dempster says he will not play this season. The 36-year-old right-hander says he is stepping away for physical reasons and to spend more time with his family. Dempster finished last season 8-9 with a 4.57 ERA and didn't get a start during the Red Sox's postseason run to a World Series title. He has pitched for 16 seasons with the Cubs, Marlins, Reds...

Boston Red Sox Pitcher Ryan Dempster Announces He Will Not Pitch in 2014
At a press conference earlier today, Red Sox swing man pitcher Ryan Dempster announced he will not be pitching in 2014. He didn't call it a career though, and said he would be open to the idea of pitching again in 2015, an idea which seems far-fetched. Dempster, 36, was scheduled to earn $13.25 million this season but was battling to earn a roster spot which seemed unlikely for...

Often, the most convenient method for expressing locations in an image is to use pixel indices. The image is treated as a grid of discrete elements, ordered from top to bottom and left to right, as illustrated by the following figure.
Pixel Indices
For pixel indices, the row increases downward, while the column increases to the right. Pixel indices are integer values, and range from 1 to the length of the row or column.
There is a one-to-one correspondence between pixel indices and subscripts for the first two matrix dimensions in MATLAB. For example, the data for the pixel in the fifth row, second column is stored in the matrix element (5,2). You use normal MATLAB matrix subscripting to access values of individual pixels. For example, the MATLAB code
returns the value of the pixel at row 2, column 15 of the image
Similarly, the MATLAB code
returns the
B values
of the pixel at row 2, column 15 of the image
The correspondence between pixel indices and subscripts for the first two matrix dimensions in MATLAB makes the relationship between an image's data matrix and the way the image is displayed easy to understand.
Another method for expressing locations in an image is to use a system of continuously varying coordinates rather than discrete indices. This lets you consider an image as covering a square patch, for example. In a spatial coordinate system like this, locations in an image are positions on a plane, and they are described in terms of x and y (not row and column as in the pixel indexing system). From this Cartesian perspective, an (x,y) location such as (3.2,5.3) is meaningful, and is distinct from pixel (5,3).
By default, the toolbox uses a spatial coordinate system for an image that corresponds to the image's pixel indices. It's called the intrinsic coordinate system and is illustrated in the following figure. Notice that y increases downward, because this orientation is consistent with the way in which digital images are typically viewed.
Intrinsic Coordinate System
The intrinsic coordinates (x,y) of the center point of any pixel are identical to the column and row indices for that pixel. For example, the center point of the pixel in row 5, column 3 has spatial coordinates x = 3.0, y = 5.0. This correspondence simplifies many toolbox functions considerably. Be aware, however, that the order of coordinate specification (3.0,5.0) is reversed in intrinsic coordinates relative to pixel indices (5,3).
Several functions primarily work with spatial coordinates rather than pixel indices, but as long as you are using the default spatial coordinate system (intrinsic coordinates), you can specify locations in terms of their columns (x) and rows (y).
When looking at the intrinsic coordinate system, note that the
upper left corner of the image is located at (0.5,0.5), not at (0,0),
and the lower right corner of the image is located at (
numCols +
numRows + 0.5), where
numCols and
numRows are
the number of rows and columns in the image. In contrast, the upper
left pixel is pixel (1,1) and the lower right pixel is pixel (
The center of the upper left pixel is (1.0, 1.0) and the center of
the lower right pixel is (
In fact, the center coordinates of every pixel are integer valued.
The center of the pixel with indices (r, c)
— where r and c are integers
by definition — falls at the point x = c, y = r in
the intrinsic coordinate system.
In some situations, you might want to use a world coordinate system (also called a nondefault spatial coordinate system). For example, you could shift the origin by specifying that the upper left corner of an image is the point (19.0,7.5), rather than (0.5,0.5). Or, you might want to specify a coordinate system in which every pixel covers a 5-by-5 meter patch on the ground.
One way to define a world coordinate system for an image is
to specify the
XData and
YData image
properties for the image. The
XData and
YData image
properties are two-element vectors that control the range of coordinates
spanned by the image. When you do this, the MATLAB axes coordinates
become identical to the world (nondefault) coordinates. If you do
not specify
XData and
the axes coordinates are identical to the intrinsic coordinates of
the image. By default, for an image
XData is
size(A,2)], and
YData is
size(A,1)]. With this default, the world coordinate system
and intrinsic coordinate system coincide perfectly.
For example, if
A is a 100 row by 200 column
image, the default
XData is [1 200], and the default
YData is
[1 100]. The values in these vectors are actually the coordinates
for the center points of the first and last pixels (not the pixel
edges), so the actual coordinate range spanned is slightly larger.
For instance, if
XData is [1 200], the interval
X spanned by the image is [0.5 200.5].
It's also possible to set
XData or
YData such
that the x-axis or y-axis is
reversed. You'd do this by placing the larger value first.
(For example, set the
YData to [1000 1].) This
is a common technique to use with geospatial data.
These commands display an image using nondefault
XData and
A = magic(5); x = [19.5 23.5]; y = [8.0 12.0]; image(A,'XData',x,'YData',y), axis image, colormap(jet(25))
To specify a world (nondefault spatial) coordinate system for
an image, use the spatial referencing objects
imref2d and
Spatial referencing objects let you define the location of the image
in a world coordinate system and specify the image resolution, including
nonsquare pixel shapes. These objects also support methods for converting
between the world, intrinsic, and subscript coordinate systems. Several
toolbox functions accept or return spatial referencing objects:
imregtform, and
This example creates a spatial referencing object associated
with a 2-by-2 image where the world extent is 4 units/pixel in the x direction
and 2 units/pixel in the
y direction. The example
creates the object, specifying the pixels dimensions as arguments
but does not specify world limits in the x and y directions.
You could specify other information when creating an object, see
imref2d for
more information.
I = [1 2; 3 4] R = imref2d(size(I),4,2)
R = imref2d with properties: XWorldLimits: [2 10] YWorldLimits: [1 5] ImageSize: [2 2] PixelExtentInWorldX: 4 PixelExtentInWorldY: 2 ImageExtentInWorldX: 8 ImageExtentInWorldY: 4 XIntrinsicLimits: [0.5000 2.5000] YIntrinsicLimits: [0.5000 2.5000]
imref2d object contains information about
the image, some of it provided by you and some of it derived by the
object. The following table provides descriptions of spatial referencing
object fields.
|Upper and lower bounds along the X dimension in world coordinates (nondefault spatial coordinates)
|Upper and lower bounds along the Y dimension in world coordinates (nondefault spatial coordinates)
|Size of the image, returned by the
size function.
|Size of pixel along the X dimension
|Size of pixel along the Y dimension
|Size of image along the X dimension
|Size of image along the Y dimension
|Upper and lower bounds along X dimension in intrinsic coordinates (default spatial coordinates)
|Upper and lower bounds along Y dimension in intrinsic coordinates (default spatial coordinates).
The following figure illustrates how these properties map to elements of an image.
You can also use the
XData and
YData properties
to define a world (nondefault spatial) coordinate system. Several
toolbox functions accept this data as arguments and return coordinates
in the world coordinate system:
