Niice I can Re Gasket and re connect my intake system finaly for ... ..... uhhh well Pete's sake ( Sorry I couldn't think of an alternative)



Heres yet another Tool Man Only thing that can happen to nobody else.



This AM driving to work a guy is Pizzin' me off changing lanes and driving extra slow in the fast lane. FINE! So I up the fuel to 50%over and lay into it building speed FAST and I get into some Snowy slush that came off a tractor trailer and slickened up the highway a bit. So the tires break loose in the slurpee and I go with it tires spewing sludge right past this emy award winner. Well as the truck regains traction Boost now comes back up as the load on the motor increases and BANG! Phshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Off goes another intercooler hose



I can't stand it :{ :{ :{ :{

Well Tim... ... . as I was reading your reply above... ... the snap you described is much better that the snap I thought you were going to type Basically, the one I was thinking about would ave involved a tow to Norfolk, MA for some billet shafts... ... ..... :{



Now, doesn't a blown hose sound betterOo.

 

[ToolManTimTaylor]

I believe MGM used this film to unveil the new 'Color' technology. Originally written to entice Shirley Temple to their studio, she turned it down. You could smoke several bongs and watch this film, but it would only make the flying monkeys harder to deal with. Got it yet? Ruby slippers? Emerald City? I don't think we're in Kansas any more?

 

[HoleshotHolset]

... . is that the one where if you start the Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon CD on the 3rd roar of the MGM lion... . everything magically aligns? (Possible mini-NETDP meet??!)



Never heard of it.

On edit: My morning commute was more exciting! I was driving along with the rear defrost (which also must engage the side mirror defrost... ) to help clear the lovely NE ice/snow.



I saw this odd flash on my driver's side mirror... . I looked back a few seconds later and FLAMES! were coming out of my mirror from behind the glass! All I could say was: "Oh #*C^!!" I shut off the defroster and the flames extinguished. Once I stopped the car, I took out the fuse for the rear defroster..... and now for the really odd part. The fuse for the side mirror defroster was MISSING! I got me some German car electrical gremlins..... whoo-hoo!

Again ... . no ya don't. The gremlins actualy were laid off 3 years ago when the Electrical and missing Sock gremlins merged departments. You see when they merged there were communication problems. The word Sock in german is Socke And the German word for fuse is Sicherung. So when they were shipped stateside there was a big problem with Sicherung Sockes.

so after that the whole department was let go.

Well boys, sounds like a snow storm may be on tap for Saturday...



I will be here. Peter... What are your plans if it snows???

I never go out if it snows. Heck, I don't go out if it rains. . and I strongly advise anyone to stay inside if it's either sunny or damp!
