What Shawndude said. Any time you suspect a bad battery connection you can use the old trick of turning on the headlights and then cranking the engine. If the ligits go out the connection is bad, if they dim the connection is good but the battery is dischaged. Shawndude is also right on about...

I served in the Air Force and later the Army Guard. There was a draft at the time but I enlisted even though my number and educational status excluded me. I was in law enforcement in both services. I'm also a veteran of another misguided conflict having served in Southeast Asia at the very end...

People believe what they want Joel. Most ignore the truth. Take these reports for example. I'm not saying they're truth but do you think our flag waving Floridian would even question them? He won't, the same as he only believes what the military writes. http://tinyurl.com/qbw5q...

Do you believe everything you read? Your first link has to be the truth right? After all, it's a *military* report. Since you believe everything you read and I don't (and since we're talking about higher ups in Iraq) try Iraq's foreign minister: http://tinyurl.com/nrdqb Oops. Lol, did...

They're M6 type CA body bolts. Look here for an example: http://tinyurl.com/qn83s That's a good price for 50 but you can get small packs of them at any auto store. Seems many here could also use a set of these: http://tinyurl.com/nqgmy

Keep in mind what I'm telling you applies to what I know of the 87-88 ecus. I'm not certain if monitoring is done in the later computers but fwiw my TCCS books don't mention it. As far as I know heater power is simply supplied via the EFI Main Relay and the ecu provides a full time ground path...

Ok Grim, I suppose one more won't hurt. Th ecu controls the O2 sensor heater but does not monitor it. No code will be set if the heater become open although the sensor will become sluggish and will fall out of closed loop at idle and take longer to warm when cold.

Sorry Son, you'll have to do better than that to get a rise out of me. I'm no Kerry fan at all but he would've been the lesser of two evils. It's obvious you haven't read any of the material I've mentioned so why beat a dead horse. Fwiw I envy you in some ways. It's far better to live in the...

Spoken like a true Southerner. A Floridian no less, a state run by Dubya's brother. I wish I'd noticed that earlier so I could've save my breath. Had your state it's shit together in 2000 we'd not even be in this mess. And this flag wavin' "USA Number One" thing (typical of folks down there)...

Lol yeah, it's hard to argue with that Grim. Funny how that is too. If you look back you'll see porn has driven lots of new technologies in their beginnings. VCRs and cable TV are two that come to mind. Sex sells, no doubt about it. ;)

Interesting theories even if they are flawed. Congress gave support based on "faulty intelligence" (yeah right) and even if Iraq did have weapons Saddam wasn't involved in 9-11. Or haven't you read the commisison's report? Dubya should be impeached on that alone as 9-11 wouldn't have even...

Speaking of the clueless: http://tinyurl.com/jr5ja "Almost 90% think the war is retaliation for Saddam’s role in 9/11"

Nice job. Once again ismns proves the internet can be so much more than a global pornography network ;)

It's a spring loaded face seal. Tthey're usually either carbon or ceramic. You can get them at industrial supply places but matching that size might be tough. When you take it out look at the face surfaces as there might be something jammed between them. If they haven't worn beyond limits you...

Yeah, that's their new Florida service center. When the factory closed a company in Texas bought up all the tooling and parts and is still in operation under the name DMC. They sell parts and refurbished cars for around $40K. The new Florida center is one of three I think. There are also a few...

Joel: Not that rare. About 6000 left worldwide. It's just a toy but in pristine condition with only 7K miles. jimi: Man, how I wish. Also, that's the first time I've been asked that ;)

First, my compliments on your methodical approach to the problem and posting the details. I wish everyone would do this rather than simply write "help, car broken" However a few things need clarification: >There are no error codes and the car runs great although it does burn a lot of oil (with...

Lol, no slam intended. I'd trade everything I have in a heartbeat to be where you are again ;)

garage: Trust me, they aren't stored in any hanger. I knew one of the flight crew on AA77 so feel free to tell his family he wasn't there. The wreckage is still under control of the FBI, what's left of it. There isn't enough to reconstruct and what would be the point? Do you think the live TV...
