Brake fluid leak
From : steve
Q: i dont think that amendment would be a bad thing. in todays world where you were born has little meaning anymore. hogwash. ask any palestinian or israeli. ask the chechnyans. ask the baltic nations. the reason why the constitution was written the way it was is to make sure that some one with a vested interest in protecting his/her own homeland was elected leader of that homeland. changing that part of the constitution could enable leadership that would be even further biased towards or against other nations which could be construed as a security risk to the nation. further it would lead to more radical swings in the direction leadership takes in this country. the reality of this silly idea is that they want to do it for ahhhnold to get into the presidency. while he may be a good choice the amendment would open the door for bad choices to follow at some point. no thank you. max life liberty and the pursuit of any jackass that threatens it. embellished usnavy slogan .

tom didnt want. he said it was only due to ignorant and i think he used stupid but then i dont care enough about what he said to look back at prior posts stupid voters who voted out of fear. or some inane thing simialr to that. anyway is he now trying to attribute that statement to your philosphies i dont think he can have it both ways. . 222 293520 ntzmd.10390$pp5.4698@trnddc05 will check that out and let you know. it has been raining alot lately so will see if that is it. otherwise i will narrow it down to the air conditioner as i believe since it only happens when it is running. tom been there done that. you have a cracked bed light lens and when it leaks it leaks between the double wall cab back panel around the rear window. it then runs forward under the carpet and soaks the rug and insulator in the front. by the time i finally figured out where the water was coming from i had to change out the entire carpet. steve i believe the drain pipe is plugged due to leaves etc. what i would like to know if there is a way to clear it out without having to take it to a dealer and pay them way too much for what i can do myself. does anyone know how to blow out the drain hose some water does drain but there is water still collecting under the carpet. any help is appreciated. i have a 96 dodge club cab 1500 model. please email at trkelleseven seven at verizon.net change the seven to a number! .

true they do make sense but the reason to open the country up to potential destruction by naturalized citizens with ulterior motives doesnt make sense. once again spoken with true ignorance. the ignorance is yours. its the same ignorance that allowed foreign nationals to get flight lessons live among us despite hating us obtain licensing to drive hazardous loads and ultimately attempt to destroy our society. im sure they told anyone they met of their plans and what they were going to do. none of those plans they mentioned had anything to do with terroistic actions. now you want to allow people into the country allow them citizenship and ultimately the ability to destroy our nation from the inside all without knowing how they feel about it because they werent born here. how does preventing someone who truly loves this country from running for president make someones time spent in the service a waste of time again you fail to see the overall motives for becoming a citizen of this nation. you accuse miles of greed but fail to even think that a motive for citizenship in the most prosperous country in the world could be.... greed! but im sure you know far more about any foreign individuals motives than we could since you think you know miles motives among other things. again youve shopwn either outright ignorance or a propensity to argue for no reason and thus im done with you on this topic. max life liberty and the pursuit of any jackass that threatens it. embellished usnavy slogan .

tbone wrote of course it is miles. with you short sighted right wing viewpoint i would expect nothing less. sigh. tom can you ever discuss and not bitch and whine this issue isnt right or left winged. it has little support from either side. besides the group pushing for it is right wing but then youll argue either way for the sake of just arguing. .

clyde wrote you cannot kill something that is not alive. the courts have ruled that life begins at birth .. not at conception. you have a cite for that i dont believe ive ever heard of a court making a ruling to supporting your comment. iirc the nations supreme court has refused to hear any case on such matter. here is fact......... in april 2004 the california supreme court ruled that the killing of a fetus constitutes second-degree. this adds support to the bill president bush signed called the laci and connors law. jerry .

tom lawrence tnloaswpraemnmcien5g@earthlink.net sprach im oh sure the fronts and rears are separate systems... yeah by law since 1968 but i wonder about the effectiveness of that system. ive seen two 80s cars with very serious fluid leaks in the last year and braking performance was absolutely abysmal in both essentially non- existent in a corsica with a front caliper leak and decidedly feeble in an mr2 with a rusted line. how much braking as percentage of full are you supposed to get from a single side of a dual-circuit system anyway -- tegger .

im wondering if i should hold out for an ho model. the dealer said they would throw on an adjustable chip at their cost and that it wouldnt void the warranty. i need to verify this with cummins and dodge however. tell em to put it in writing and get it authorized by dc corporate. snicker a few facts... nothing short of fraud or blatent abuse will out-right void a warranty. however warranty coverage can be denied on a case by case basis if an aftermarket part or product is suspected of causing the condition. secondly there is no warranty from cummins... dc holds the warranty on the engine and its up to them not cummins to provide it. and as such they can choose to withhold warranty coverage if they suspect a non-authorized part or product is at fault. bottom line... any device that adds additional fuel could be cause for denying any drivetrain-related warranty repairs should they become necessary. if you want an extra 55hp hold our for an ho. .

on mon 15 nov 2004 122942 gmt budd cochran mr-d150@citlinkspam.net wrote greg it didnt take that long to amend the constitution to limit presidential terms or any other amendments since 1776. why should this one take so long but if it doesnt matter then we might was well just let osama have the position right or how about queen elizabeth or castro -- budd but limiting the presidents terms and letting woman vote made sense. also they had been discussed and lobbied for years before they were put before congress to approve. beekeep .

i have a brake fluid leak in my dodge ram 1500/v6 engine that is progressively getting worse. ive continued to top off my brake fluid so that the brake system continues to work ok. right now i have to fill the master cylinder-resevoir up about 1/2 to 3/4s of the way every 3 to 4 days. the problem is getting worse because at first i was only filling the resevoir up every week or so. i have visually determined by fluid on the ground that the source of the leak is something up towards the right-front part of the vehicle about six inches to a foot from the right-front tire. is this something easy to fix what could it be i figured the steel brake fluid line could be broken or something... youve got a truck.. you dont even have to lift it to get under it. if youve located the general vicinity you should be able to find the leak or narrow it down to a more specific area. sounds like it could be the brake line. id make haste in fixing whats wrong otherwise you may find yourself without brakes and you may be going 60 miles an hour and realize you really needed to top off your brake fluid before you got on the highway. -bruce .
