    Best Bartender EVER!!!!

    A typical straight up drink would've been 1 1/2 ounces. This guy was 100% clueless as to what he was doing and filled both 7 oz glasses ful to the rim (an obscene amount for a single glass and about 50% of a fifth of beam) and charged us for the standard price. Most of the time you're not even...

    Best Bartender EVER!!!!

    So I'm in central Wisconsin on business and head to the hotel bar with another coworker after a long day to order a couple of Jim Beams, straight up. This young bartender fills both 7 oz tumblers with ice and gets ready to pour when we stop him; NO ICE! He grabs a nearly empty bottle of...

    Making a living

    I don't make as much as SC. :-p Chemical technical service rep for more than 11 years so far and bored as hell, so I am working on a position as plant manager for a much smaller company. Initial pay would be about the same, but potential galore if I prove myself over the next year or two...

    Ky Suprameet??!!

    Starscream - let me know what you've got. For the right price I could use a few things for my build. You guys won't beat up a guy in a Subaru, will you? I've got a friend who loves car events - any car event - and I thought I'd throw word his way and see if he wanted to sit in on the dyno...

    how much oil do you lose?

    Funny. My new 57 trim took care of my smoke on start up, but I get a really bad smell on decel/engine brake when my windows are down. Valve seals? I guess...

    how much oil do you lose?

    I'll let somebody else chime in on what else to replace, but word has it that felpro seals do not match up to Toyota, so that's how I would go. Do a search, b/c IJ consistently warns that they HAVE to be installed with sleeves of some sort to keep from destroying them during installation - it...

    how much oil do you lose?

    Cams off for sure. It must have been in my Chilton's manual - ~$20 at AZ. Edit: I've never paid attention to to qts/mile. It's daily driven (heavily) and I probably throw in less than half a quart every week to two and never let it go below the max line on the dipstick. Things got much...

    how much oil do you lose?

    It's in the TSRM, and you don't have to pull the head. Basically you would use compressed air to keep the valves from dropping into the cylinders and swap them out. Sounds like a PITA to me though. I've thought about doing mine, too.

    Supra's falling from the sky????

    You're being stalked by Supras? I bet Lynette would have no problem taking out a restraining order against all of them. :D

    code 21 engine light on only when cold

    I will get out my multimeter this weekend. Thanks for the troubleshooting how-to JJ. Btw, I doubt my issue is in the harness since it was brand new as of last December and I'm almost positive the problem predated the harness swap. BTW dcrusupra, when shooting clay pigeons with a shotgun...

    code 21 engine light on only when cold

    Sigh... Are we picking at words here? The o2 sensor sends out the signals. If the signals are good/normal then the ECU lets you know by keeping the CEL off, however the ECU reports them via CEL if the signals are not normal. This has been understood from the beginning. Now, I believe...

    code 21 engine light on only when cold

    I wasn't suggesting anything about the ECU - only the o2 sensor. The fact that the light goes out suggests to me that a change of some kind is occurring in the sensor as it warms up. Based on the fact that there is a heater circuit, the first logical possibility is that it is not...

    code 21 engine light on only when cold

    Regardless of the existence of a "bimetal switch", faulty heater = CEL until things get nice and warm. Ja?

    code 21 engine light on only when cold

    Mine does the same thing, and I have been under the same belief as what 88YotaTurbo said. More of a nuisance than anything.

    Papst blue ribbon!

    Say what you want, but I've always like the old fart beers. PBR, Hamms, Old Style, Schmidt, Schlitz. They've got a ton more character than Bud/BLight, MGD, etc, but the hangovers are killers.

    How much money is in this jar.

    Eh? :aigo: Was that 300 coins or 300 dollars, because: $300 x 8 pts/gallon x 5 gallons = $12,000 Sounds way too high to me. I'm sticking with $2,021.53. ;)
