    Man o man, Im beating my head because I just had my trunk off not too long ago and I can not recall how the wiring was set up. Free bump.

    I tried to log in, but the chat room demands more bandwidth than what my internet provider can provide.

    Wave rotors stop faster because the edge of the wave catches the pad. Yes the pads wear faster, but you also stop faster. Same with drilled rotors. The edges of the holes catch the pad allowing for a faster deceleration. Wave rotors are also good to keep the pads clean. Debris and dust can't be caught between the pad and rotor.

    What size drawbar does this take?

    The life is how tall the lobe on the cam is, the more lift, the farther the valve is open. Duration is how long the valve is open for. More lift and more duration allows more air and fuel to be drawn into the cylinder producing more power. Cost can vary from FREE!! to whatever Yamaha charges for a set of brand new cams.

    That should be a fun ride.

    Most excellent. Can't beat a free gun!

    I had a PF9 which is the single stack version of that gun. I liked it for pocket carry. I had no problems out of it. As for the steel vs brass on the casings, Ive heard that rumor before about steel being harder on extractors, but anyone that I have even talked to has never personally seen that. In fact, there's plenty of documentation online from competition shooters who go through thousands of rounds of steel cased ammo and their rigs just keep shooting.

    80psi is about the minimum a gas engine will fire at. Pull the plug and squirt some oil in in the cylinder and take another reading.

    Probably needs a piston and rings. 60psi is kind of low.

    Have you bought anything from Zappos.com? They were just hacked this weekend.

    It sounds like it runs fine until it goes into closed loop. In open loop is runs on a preset program until closed loop mode engages and runs off all the sensor readings. I wonder if that vehicle has a knock sensor and the sensor is giving a false reading causing the ECM to retard the timing and the vehicle falls on it's face. You could just start unplugging sensors one at a time until the problem goes away. Unplug the coolant temp sensor, drive it, if the problem is still there, plug it back up and move to another sensor. Once the faulty sensor is unplugged, the ECM will use a preset reading to compensate.

    so you're not paying for your cable service now to get MTV, MTV2, and VH1? Id rather watch it on youtube anyways because it's what I want to watch, not 4 crappy songs just to see one good song. Get a free program to download youtube videos and you can build a library to watch while you work out.

    If you have 43psi of fuel pressure, it's not running lean most likely. I too would check the catalytic converter. With that many miles on it, it may very well be plugged.

    Put leather chaps on over the toggs to insulate against the exhaust.
  20. flb_78
    no no no no no... The wire feeding that plug is rather thin and flimsy. Unless you would like to take the chance and heating the wire up and possibly burning the bike to the ground, leave the 5 amp fuse.

    Scrap metal is selling at an all time high.

    My concern would be about the battery. The battery is around $3000 +labor to replace it. There also may be potential problems with the inverter. http://www.edmunds.com/toyota/highlander-hybrid/2006/consumer-discussions.html

    They kill coyotes in Texas with 380s, at least the Governor does.

    Medical Tourism. Fly to India, stay in a 5 star resort, be served drinks by the pool while you recuperate, and probably spend less than your co-pay for the total cost. http://www.medicaltourismco.com/orthopedic-joint-bone/knee-replacement-surgery-cost.php

    Dang it. I had the 15" picked the first time... Stupid internet.
