(12-19-2010, 10:02 AM)rdirtycar I use similar lines with some success in the past. Usually with women younger than me.
I always liked the clean cut older cabbie I used to work with. His favorite line at 4-8 am in the morning with young (college) girls dressed scantily was:
"are you girls going to work?"
And... (sign of the times) only about one in 5 girls would even have a clue what he meant!!!
(12-09-2010, 06:09 PM)dropnosky advertising failure, is this a product or a service?
Ok...
Unfortunately never got a picture of this but a soft serve ice cream shop locally had this sign.

The engine only has ~60k on it. I got it warm 2 times and after the second time it slowly started getting worse on passing coolant. All that was wrong was a bad thermostat. It's got a good one now and a e-fan off a 960 and it's awesome.

I was thinking timing. I did the valves a few months ago. Im going to check the timing I'm thinking that they might have a odd timing setup on the 85 Cali cars.

The "Fail" here is a sign near an intersection that tells guilty people there is a Driver's license check point if you make a left at the intersection.
By continuing to go straight through the intersection you effectively evade the check point and then you can turn left up at the next street (Prairie) to get where you need to go, and be free and clear.

(02-24-2011, 04:05 PM)dieselboy Yeah it stops at that pin. (park lever)
I agree with CA, looks like the tranny has been shifted into park before coming to a stop or it was allowed to roll back/forward hard into the lock.

I always cringe when I see someone slam their car into park and the whole weight of the vehicle rolls until the little dog ear (GM trans) catches it... I always use the parking brake.

The one where the crack stops is not the parking arm pivot thats the stop for it when its not engaged.
The big one on the bottom of the pic is the one it pivots on.
No its from to much pressure. I know exactly when the trans split open when it shifted into 3rd gear and it activated that servo for the #3 band and it forced the trans apart.
Ive never banged it into park before. Even when the thing rolls like 3ft before it locks in lol.
If you look at this picture you can see the thin area right behind the pin is where it cracked. it obvious if you hold it in your hands and see it for yourself.

1981 Mercedes-Benz 300SD | 156K Miles | 2nd Owner | EGR Disabled [Removal Pending] | ALDA Removed | Straight Pipes | GT2256V??? | Laser Interceptor | Engine swap over summer, hopefully with GT2256V attached...
1981 Mercedes-Benz 300SD | Odo Stopped at 160K (at least 50K more) | EGR Disabled | ALDA All The Way Out | Straight pipes | FM-870 Remote Start Alarm System | B100 Biodiesel | AC Fixed x2 | Trunk crushed in
| Retired to garage.Excessive speeding? It ain't excessive till I redline!
I ran the Benz outta oil over spring break... It started running rough and I pulled over, oil pressure looked fine.... THE DAMN OIL PRESSURE SENDER FAILED! Thankfully, we were stuck in traffic and I pulled over in the sand... I haven't noticed any significant damage, made the 600 mile trip home just fine, but she does seem a little rougher on cold starts, could just be me tho.

The kit she had did not go into flushing much, I gather that was a "stage 2" kit. Basically you wean the cat into getting used to crapping with the toilet seat as a litter box, then slowly remove sections of a plastic insert so the cat has less and less litter to crap into. Eventually its just a small ring of litter with an opening into the toilet water, then nothing.
Eventually, the cat supposedly learns to stand on the seat and go to town. It certainly was one of the messiest and unsanitary disgusting processes I have observed though, prompting its abandonment 2 months in. The cat was kicking litter all over the bathroom, like in the sink and tooth brush and such. It was gross.
