It does need more power. Other than the intake manifold gasket leaking coolant it seems to be a fairly reliable engine if you want an appliance. Intake gasket is a pain to fix since you have to pull the pushrods, but nothing just a few hours and a special little tool can't fix. I've got one in the W's '99 Lumina.

Same picture that I posted here when I made it, knives have changed a bit, but holder still looks the same.

Made a small one three? years ago

You'd have to get the Pro model, its the only one made for that. I've got an RT version and I love it but I don't need/want to write notes on it with a pen. Definitive answers ftw! Thanks. Sucks the batteries aren't replaceable from what I've read, makes me a little leery about buying a used model. I haven't had a single issue with mine yet, had it for ~1yr so far. Bought it back before they dropped the prices on them substantially.

High of 48* here today, you keep all that cold white shit up North.

No windscreen or are you to dang tall to use one?

Did a clutch cylinder on a Ranger, had to vac it out from the reservoir side to get the damn thing to work right.

That took some patience....

Didn't you just finish your kitchen last year? That's what I thought...

I was in the construction industry for quite some time, worked for a cabinet builder, visited many stone top suppliers and have never once seen one cut a hole with any type of router. They either use a water jet or diamond wheel on a grinder and a jig. The only time I have ever seen a "router" used for stone was for profiling edges. Yep, got friends that own a granite shop, they run a diamond/water jet saw to cut profiles, routers with $$$$$$ in diamond tooling to do edge profiles, then bunch of wet tables for polishing edges.

Why are you testing water??To know the ppm and ph. duhWhy would one care though. Hydroponics is my guess

New person at work is from Houston, she thinks this whole winter thing sucks.

You on the west side of the mountains then?

It's Pueblo, might as well be Mexico. Which means EAT MEXICAN food. Didn't even think of that. One of the guys here is Mexican and took me to a joint that is a kitchen on the side of a store with a couple of old Mexican women cooking, holy crap was that good. Nothing like the normal 'Mexican' food.

Colorado folks. I will be in Pueblo next week for work out at the federal rail test facility, TTCI, anywhere to stay away from for hotels or any good places to stay at?

Not so much here with all the cuts that have been made. They must be over funded here bc you see plow trucks throwing sparks sometimes. With the elevation changing so quick here some of the passes and canyons get closed. PA had some big cut backs, mostly penndot labors. KDOT and MODOT have engineers running plow trucks for that same reason.

I wouldn't be leaving my house.

Sounds reasonable if it was a 36mo battery... the W's car had a battery from 2001, car is a '99, it died this past summer on the way to Denver. Its hard to find better quality control than what they put into cheap automotive batteries, 36mo, it'll die 36.5-40 months.

Just bought more knives, I shouldn't be left alone with the computer.

Lincoln, Omaha, and Reno for me.

Folks got us a Shark Rotator Pro vacuum. This thing is awesome, it just mows right through cat hair, quiet, and just downright sweet. Didn't think I'd be this excited about a new vacuum.

That plug is oil-fouled and covered in sludge. It's leaking oil by in a bad way. Looks like a valve stem seal, actually. It appears to be caked and fluffy on one side, which is indicative of that. When it stops firing the oil just saturates the build up. You guys rock.

Injectors were super easy though, 1.5hrs from start to finish.

Heck, my truck was missing two injectors for a while and plugs never look ANYTHING like that. Those plugs were new maybe 3 years and 40k miles ago?
