Congratulations Pats fans
From : denny
Q: roy wrote pats by 14 roy congrats to the pats roy. my iggles were defeated by a better team. the fair play on both sides of the ball was commendable. too often dirty play changes the outcome of a good game. this was not the case here. both teams played with heart and dignity. the officials were fair on both sides of the ball. would someone please pass the chowder yeah you too rabbit. the bandwagon rolls through here too. -p im off the bandwagon. back to being a bengals fan again. next year has arrived and maybe a winning season is in the cards. denny cmbba .

i replaced the gas cap about a month ago and the next day after i reset the check engine light and the fuel level got down to about 1/4 tank the light came back on. so i figured that it was not the gas cap. .

be careful here. dodge qualifies the 7500 mile change. if for instance you take many small trips in the colder months in which the engine does not warm up completely or if you tow heavy the recommended interval is 3500. me i use 3500. oil is cheaper than a motor. steve all of the manufacturers do that--and have been for years. when my wife owned her 1991 mercury sable wagon the service writer at the dealership insisted on using the severe use guidelines for maintenance recommendations. i questioned him about that as she was a housewife that traveled mainly during the daytime hours and never commuted. no severe weather no taxi service never towed it couldnt very little stop n go traffic etc.. his answer everyone in california is subject to severe use translation we want your car in here more often so we can generate more revenue. i always changed the oil every 4000 miles--had the ac fixed under warranty. otherwise it was a good car that lasted 125000 miles until we traded it in... mark those who live by the sword get shot by those who dont .

mac davis wrote marine math the korean war in which the marine corps fought and won some of its most brutal battles was not without its gallows humor. during one such conflict a rok republic of korea commander whose unit was fighting along with the marines called legendary marine general chesty puller to report a major chinese attack in his sector. how many chinese are attacking you asked puller. manymany chinese! replied the excited korean officer. puller asked for another count and got the same answer many many chinese! x*#dammit! swore puller put my marine liaison officer on the radio. in a minute an american voice came over the air yes sir lieutenant growled chesty exactly how many chinese you got up there colonel we got a whole shitload of chinese up here! thank god. exclaimed puller at least theres someone up there who knows how to count! lol... thanks. ;- jeff mac please remove splinters before emailing .

does anyone have one of these i have not been able to find one to test drive so any thoughts or informaiton would be appreciated. would like to know if the shifting is smooth and sure what the performace is like esp. vs. the auto trans and what the gas milage is like. i did drive one with an automatic transmission and liked it but i was thinking that a manual would offer better performance milage and control. does anyone know if this is true .

moparman wrote 1. install receiver hitch. 2. install 7 pin rv light kit to the truck. 3. install back-up light kit fits around the receiver hitch under the bumper and has two backup lights good for 80 feet. has a position switch to use off on and only work when in reverse.. 4. install freshly painted tool box. 5. install new wade bed caps. 6. remove scratch from rear dually fender. bastards!! i will be broke at that point. any advise on the above is appreciated. yeah get more scratch remover. dully fenders are a target for every shopping cart in the parking lot. even not having a dully i still park at the farthest point from the store door. wife finally learned to expect long walks to and from the store entrance. jerry .

jason g wrote i was wondering if there are aftermarket parts to increase the payload capacity of a 2wd dakota like heavier springs or something. ride quality doesnt really matter much as this is a work truck for hauling dirt rock etc. legally increasing the gross vehicle weight rating would be extremely difficult if not impossible. if this truck isnt going to be driven loaded on public roads you can do anything you want to it without worrying about the responsibility of killing someone on the highway because you exceeded the legal limit of your truck. there are several things you need to do in order to increase the capacity of the truck. front and rear brake upgrades front and rear suspension upgrades possibly a transmission/clutch upgrade cooling system upgrades etc. if you are not going to exceed the manufacturers gvwr and want more stability when you are loaded heavy try http//www.timbren.com/ . ive used the double convolution aeon timbren springs on a f-150 with great results. they will not increase the capacity of the truck but the rear suspension will be able to handle much more weight than without them. sorry the ride quality is not effected when empty. if anything its improved when loaded. .

jcmills wrote well my 94 dakota i was told the same thing. however im a firm believer in the 3 month 3000 mile oil and filter change and im religious about it. owned the 94 from 96 to jan 05 bought it with 18000 miles on it traded it at 133000 miles i drove it everywhere and has been in a large portion of states in our fair country pulled a boat with and had numerous oversize loads in it too... loll and not once was it ever in the shop for anything other than tires and alignment i do my own oil brakes and plugs. only problem i ever had was at around 120000 had to put a new water pump in it and it hadnt completely failed just was leakin... i attribute alot of that to the oil changes. plan to keep the same schedule with my 03 ram now.. jason be careful here. dodge qualifies the 7500 mile change. if for instance you take many small trips in the colder months in which the engine does not warm up completely or if you tow heavy the recommended interval is 3500. not for a cummins. schedule a the impossible light-duty schedule that most people couldnt adhere to is 15000mi intervals. schedule b for normal people is 7500mi. 94 dakota 318 v8 over 150000 miles change the oil every 6000 miles no problems whatsoever. untill the auto transmition craped out just after the dealer changed the fluid. jam .

tbone wrote that is not what it says jerry. if you can add atf+4 to atf+3 then it makes absolutely no sense that you cant do it the other way. the reason that they say this is because atf+3 does not have the required properties for a vehicle requiring atf+4 and using it to top up a atf+4 transmission will weaken those properties i agree and disagree at the same time. reading garys post again he did say in a vehicle requiring type 3 so in a sense he was correct but as i mentioned to t lawrence what is the design change that requires atf+4 in a transmission other than dcs marketing ploy. i suspect there is none but that dc simply wants to keep the market on atf+4 in their court. jerry .

thanks to those who replied to my posting about removing the transmission line. new problem. fortunately this occured before i dropped the pan. i went to dodge and picked up my atf. i told them i own a 2000 dakota r/t with a 46re transmission. they said that i needed atf+4 so $60 later i leave with 3 gallons of atf+4. i pull the dipstick i know i know i should have done it first and it says fill with atf+ 7176. which is atf+3... i check my dodge service manual and it does indeed say atf+3.... i know that atf+4 is better than atf+3 but i also heard that atf+4 is no longer recommended for atf+3 transmissions. you heard wrong you can upgrade from +3 to +4 but not go from 4 to 3 with me price isnt the issue reliability is. so do i..... return the atf+4 and fill with atf+3 or fill with atf+4 i saw the guy punch up the codes into the computer so i know that unless the change was recent and my local dodge dealer didnt update their computer ma mopar wants me to use atf+4. what is the verdict please tell me it is atf+4 so i dont have to use synthetic from some other company. thanks in advance .
