    Shift lever issues

    My shift lever has gotten sloppy in the detents and now I have to pull it up sometimes to get it to start. What part causes this and how hard is it to replace?

    Transmission question

    My truck has 138k on it and the torque converter seems to be getting a bit weak. I have never really pulled hard with it so I am hoping the rest of the tranny is fine. I am thinking of putting in a new 5R110 torque converter (they fit right?) and doing the full Transgo Tugger kit install. Do...

    Oil Leak

    Yeah, this is where my leak came from. Mine sprayed oil onto the downpipe and I could see a black spot on it. Dealer wanted ~$900 to fix, I did it myself for ~$150 in parts. The new seal is much better than the original and should last longer. Took me about 6 hours but I was milking it.

    Is Your Xmas Tree Still UP?

    Our tree was down 12/23 because it is a living tree and we were going down to my parents house for Christmas. We live out where no one can see the house so I never put lights up. I think next year I may run a cord out to the street and put some lights out there.

    Home robbery

    Regardless or the law, I would not shoot someone in the back for stealing. I think that situation is very unlikely to arise though. If you catch them in the act, have a light on them, and tell them to freeze odds are they will not move. If they do, you have to shoot them because they could be...

    Well, I guess I'm at that age!!!

    My dad said the worst part is drinking the stuff they give you. He said the actual scoping was nothing.

    What was your very FIRST car?

    1974 IHC Scout II XLC I got a lot of crap for that thing in college, one time I had a car full and they were hassling me so I punched it and headed for the curb, they all freaked out until we hit the curb and it just went "bump bump" I turned around and told them "that is why I drive it"

    New diesel option

    Yeah, I am wondering what it gets them. It would probably result in less cylinder wear but then you have the gear cost and wear so I would think that would be a negative. 96bhp from a 1430 cc is not very high performance in the bike world. Still cool though.

    RV Satellite System, what do you use?

    Why watch tv when camping? You can do that at home, you are supposed to make a fire and get hammered.

    Guns & Ammo

    The bolt should not close on a no go gauge, if it does it means that it has too much headspace in the chamber and is not supporting the brass properly. The other numbers you want to look at are the muzzle erosion and throat erosion. These are measured with a graduated tapered gauge, the lower...

    Looking for speakers

    It was probably more the amp than the speakers. If you are just using the head unit without an amp it will not sound that great no matter what speakers you use. That said, new speakers would help and are easy to replace. If you want to make it sound better than the Porsche, get an amp, new...

    Tom Cruise/ Katie Holmes wedding

    The only thing more pathetic than people that actually care about this crap are the people camping out for a freaking video game.

    New Taco; The Good, Bad....Ugly.

    I guess weight makes a big difference. i was rearended by a woman in a Suburban that had a umbrella get under the brake. She claimed to be doing 35 and smashed the front of her Suburban up real good. It did $1,800 damage to my truck but I hardly felt it. I sure was glad I was not in my Accord.

    Where do you get your Weather report?

    I use intellicast.com. They have nice satellite shots and seem to be a bit ahead of NOAA but they are still usually wrong. We all just live in the wrong place, the weatherman in Vegas says sunny and 110 degrees every day and he is right 98% of the time.

    Question for the gun guru's

    If you are looking for semi-auto with decent power and accuracy you should look into an M1 Garand. It is my favorite gun. Lots of power and it does not hurt your shoulder. It is fun to take to out at the range after someone has been shooting an AR-15. I have gotten quite a few "what is...

    Question for the gun guru's

    The .17 hmr is more expensive than a .223 or 22-250 so I do not see the point in it. Less power for more money. For price and availablility the .223 is hard to beat but I do not think it has enough juice. An SKS in 7.62X39 can be had for cheap. What do you want to do with it?

    Computer help please

    Check the lights on the modem when you are not doing anything. If they are going crazy you have some kind of virus junk running and plugging up the connection, if not then there is a connection issue. Have you already unplugged the modem and plugged it back in? That works 90% of the time. My...

    think my computer is dieing

    Sounds like your hard drive failed, no software can fix. Is it still under warranty? If not get a new SATA (I assume it is new enough to be SATA) drive install it and start over. If you did not backup XP you will have to borrow a disk from someone and then use your Product ID. If you can get...
