Flyinfool

How are the pins and splines in the rear wheel. I had a similar vibration that turned out to be dry rusty pins.

Really? It is spring time? I think we need to celebrate. I am just so happy i could dump a foot of snow somewhere............. Now where to aim the nozzles................??????????? Eeni meeny miny moe, North south east or west, Where should all of the snow go? Have to find the place that's best.

I like canned worms. Diodes are rated for current and voltage. When the diode is acting as a check valve to prevent backflow the current is zero (at least close enough to zero for this discussion) until it hits the max voltage rating where the voltage can overpower the diode and make it flow backwards. Still kind of like a check valve has a pressure rating, if you exceed it you can force back flow, so the amp rating does not matter for reverse current. When the diode has the power flowing thru it in the conducting direction is where the amp rating comes into play. The amp rating the maximum amps that can flow thru the diode in the conducting direction before it will overheat and let out the magic blue smoke that makes all things electric function.

There is a good chance that you can reuse the valve cover gaskets. They are rubber and therefore are reusable. The only issue will be how old are they and are they dried out and cracking. If they are still the original gaskets they might be to old to reuse. The black RTV might work for a while but it will not be long before the cracked come thru again.

This has me thinking now. I often put the last load in the dryer and go to bed or even leave the house. I have to rethink that now. Glad no one was hurt. The company I work for makes a cleaner specifically to get smoke odors out. It is used by professional carpet cleaners for after fire cleanup. It does an amazing job and has no odor of its own. The longer you wait the harder it is to get the smell out.

The class stopped because the front pressure was maxed out. IIRC the front pressure is 7-21 lbs and the rear is 7-85 lbs. So the front was maxed out and the rear still had a bit to go. Edit; Dang typed to slow again.................

Well @cowpuc you are right, a diode is like a check valve for electricity, allowing current to flow in one direction only. As Bongo mentioned brake and turn signals are a popular place for diodes. I have them in the lights that I put into the reflector on the trunk of my bike. I have that reflector wired to be turn signals, brake light and running light. Since it uses the same LED bulb for both brake and running, so you would use 2 diodes, one in the line from the brake and one in the line for the running light. If you were to hook both lines to the same bulb without the diodes, the running lights power would back feed into the brake circuit keeping the whole brake light circuit energized at all times. The diodes prevent this. The Diodes are used any time you need to combine 2 or more circuits but you do not want the circuits to back feed into each other. There are other places they come in handy also. Especially if you try to retrofit cheap LED bulbs into the turn signals.

I see another killer ninga squirrel thread coming.

Now you have a bunch of isolation diodes for hooking stuff up on your bike.

You had me with the title.............. May you have at least one more good this season.

Thats what I'm talking about. The internet is also a great source for info but that info is no better than the author, I have seen some (not many) with bad info. But the factory manual is the bible and covers everything. And for $15 you can't go wrong, that is even cheaper than a Haynes.

Speedo and ODO are both driven from the same cable. If either is working then your cable is good and you have other issues in the head.

perfect The class is only supposed to work in ACC The E4 code is a common issue for a bad solder joint on the PC board. Very easy to fix.

The last Haynes manual that I bought for my 91 Firebird was not a lot of help, most of the stuff I looked up said to "take it to a qualified mechanic" Yet it had details to rebuild the engine and trans. All I was looking for was instructions to change a power window motor and then the fuel pump. They felt that that can only be done by a qualified mechanic. Me personally, I will never get another Haynes. I do not know if the Chilton's are any better or not. Now I buy the factory manuals, they have everything.

The price bottomed out here about 2 months ago at around $1.39. With Easter coming it is expected to jump the price to catch the travelers. They are raising the price cuz they can, that's all the reason they need. They let it dip down for a while so everyone would go out and trade in there econobox cars for big honking SUVs that drink gas, then pop the price back up and roll in the cash..............

BUT, BUt, But, but........... I never claimed to have ever been anything even close to resembling NORMA in any manor shape or form...........

The front springs do not die from mileage they die of old age. Your 92 is old and I would bet they are weak at best. Those springs are holding up the weight of the bike whether it is sitting in the garage or flying down the road, either way they are still working.

Puc? Back to NORMAL?........ Don't you need to have been NORMAL at some time, in order to get back to NORMAL?????????????

Sure looks to healing good. Please try to keep following the docs intentions.............

It is obvious that even the squirrel thought the Oldgoat was nutz.

The difference is the boiling of point Dot 4 may be higher. Dot 4 is not necessarily better than Dot 3. Here is some good reading written in English. http://www.stoptech.com/technical-support/technical-white-papers/brake-fluid
