OT - Cheney Kicked Ass

From : tbone

Q: it could be a combination of problems. first unloosen the radiator cap and bring it up to operating temp - check your gauge. if the coolant starts to go up and down your water pump is working. close radiator cap. check your guage. if coolant temp quage increases it is probably your thermostat or a plugged radiator. take the cheapest route to go from here. thermosat- a couple of bucks radiator flush and coolant a few more dollars new radiator flush coolant - a lot bucks. check with your local garage for your best price if unfamiliar with the testing sequence. best of luck .

aha a nimby in the making . . .not in my back yard ; i dont think thats a label that fits. i think we should come up with an alternative to drilling alaska. have you ever been there have you been to the location that bush/cheney have suggested that we start drilling i have ... and it should be a crime to destroy it. sorry craig but your completely deceived. first theres enough oil under the north shore alone to supply us needs completely for 5000 years i am summerizing from a book i read about alaska 2 years ago. i would be interested in knowing where your figures come from. perhaps mine are in error. secondly our civilization is too dependent on it to ever give up oil and third read my reply to jeff and think about how many oil based products you use yourself then multiply that by 3/4 of the world population. i understand what you are saying and i realize that a sudden switch off of oil is unrealistic. but we can move the process along faster than we have. bush made some progress but he could have done better. there are a couple of reasons why he didnt 1 his major contributors are oil companies 2 he comes from the oil mentality himself and 3 i dont think he really gives a shit about the environment. his record proves that. of course im guessing here but suspect that many many thousands of jobs could be created at every level r&d manfacturing sales if more time money and energy was focused on viable alternative energy. not trying to push any hot buttons here but if we spent 120 billion on alternative energy instead kicking iraqs ass wed be a lot closer to a solution that would in the end solve the issue in iraq. it will be drilled someday even if its your kids that beg for it. well now that depends on who we elect and what alternatives we as a country come up with now doesnt it craig c. .

you could be describing a vehicle with the wrong or an upside down gas filter. most of those carb engines have a fuel return line to prevent vapor lock on a hot shut down. most of the inline fuel filters have 2 outlets. the center outlet goes to the carb and the top outlet goes to the return line. if the return line outlet is lower than the carb line gas will syphon back to the tank causing a vapor lock. same deal if the wrong filter is in it. i would be checking close for the gas return line to see if it is there and hooked up right. on the electric chokes the choke closes when shut down. no power it is closed. this is perfectly normal. mike 86/00 cj7 laredo 33x9.5 bfg muds glass nose to tail in 00 88 cherokee 235 bfg ats barry wrote just bought an 87 dodge pickup. whenever i drive it and its hot outside after i shut it off the truck seems to get vapor lock and refuses to start again. so i popped the hood... and what seems to be happening is the choke closes all the way whenever the engine is shut off.... which makes it darn near impossible to start. my solution is to jam the choke open with a screwdriver until it starts. also im only getting 7 miles to the gallon litterally although the truck seems to run fine. im goin to rebuild the carb but how do i know if the electric choke ever functions correctly i mean how do i test *that* or is it totally screwed up and i should save time by installing a manual choke the trucks an 87 dodge ram 360 engine. the qjets numbers are 17085431 / 1746. from what im reading that may not be the carb that came with the truck. im not a newbie but havent worked on my own cars for about twenty years and the carb thing is a new one for me. any advice greatly appreciated... and if youre in oregon it might be worth some beer. .

i think the term may have is being a little optimistic. in my experience id say your symptoms are pretty classic for a blown head gasket almost a certainty. id say the odds of it are 101. hopefully the cylinder head isnt warped. unless you are capable of doing it yourself and have access to the tools i.e. a torque wrench youre probably looking at a major cost repair easily several hundred. youll also need to determine and fix whatever caused it. this may be one of those chicken or the egg questions. the most common cause of a blown head gasket is overheating i.e. running it out of coolant stuck thermostat etc. adding cold water to an overheated engine thats boiled itself dry can also warp the block or head and possibly result in a blown head gasket. gjbeasley@comcast.net writes antifreeze does not evaporate quick!!! if you are loosin coolant and cant see where it is going you may have a blown head gasket or even intake gasket sucking coolant thru the engine and out the tail pipe .

clintons plan didnt create jobs. a technology boom fueled by people willing to invest trillions into these high-risk stocks created the money supply for the jobs. economists in the 90s had stated over and over it was a sure plan for collapse but investors saw the market keep going up and dove in head first. when these companies failed as predicted the market collapsed. you can spin it how you want but it was an economy that had no backbone to stay afloat. nope. it was clintons agressive plan regarding the bond market. i still invest in high-tech stocks ... the same ones i invested in int he 90s. so do all of my friends and family yet our economy is in the toilet. part of the reason is that high-tech jobs are flying out of the country at an unprecendented rate. carter during clintons years the unemployment averaged higher than it is now. so let me get this straight ... youre saying that there were more unemployed people in the mid-90s than now what right-wing economic rag are you reading when clinton came into office the economy was growing. when he left the economy was falling. nope ... this country was in a recession when he took office. i remember that being part of the presidential debates. i was a perot fan at that time ... mainly because i worked for him ... and that was perots beef as well with daddy bush. and 50% of americans think kerry is worthless. whats your point actually i dont like kerry. i simply hate bush more. my answer is mccain. my point was that bush has successfully alienated at least 50% of america and 90% of the world. we can not allow the world to dictate our policies nor ask the un to protect us. that isnt at all what i am advocating. we cannot afford to alienate the world. period. call that what you want put your right-wing vocabulary on it if you want. we are where we are today not because we have acted alone like we have in the last 4 years. we cannot afford to run around world blowing the fuck out of everyone that our redneck president thinks needs it. strong alliances will insure our future success as a world leader ... not just militarily but economically as well. craig c. .

@yahoo.com says... actually now im more confused than before ;- the 1997 chrysler service manual shows ax15 and nv3500 transmissions. as82 is not mentioned anywhere so that information is probably just plain wrong. i checked the haynes repair manual for the 1997 model year and it indicates that two manual transmissions were used in the dakota... the ax-15 and the nv3500. it does not mention how to differentiate between the two. 1 transmission code is printed on the body code plate which is on the passenger side if you care to remove the cab back panel trim to get at it. first three letters of bottom line; ddq = 5-speed manual ax15 ddc = 5-speed manual nv3500 dgk = 4-speed auto 42re dgw = 4-speed auto 44re. 2 ax15 has a separate bellhousing nv3500 combines bellhousing with front half of gear case. to complicate things further there were two versions of the nv3500 available which differed only in the first and second gear ratios. the manual says that the ax15 was used on the 4.0l engine a common mis- print interpret as 3.9l but gives no other clues. gear ratios ax15 = 3.83 2.33 1.44 1.00 0.79 4.22r nv3500wide = 4.01 2.32 1.40 1.00 0.73 3.55r nv3500close = 3.48 2.16 1.40 1.00 0.73 3.55r hth .

just picked up a new 2004 durango a bout 10 days ago. love the truck! unfortunately it has taken exactly 1 week for my wife to amputate the passenger side mirror while backing out of the garage. in know that it is attached to the door by 3 screws. i can get to one but the other 2 are behind the door panel. what is the proper procedure for removing the door panel i have an offset screwdriver so i can just remove the top to get to the screws as long as the wire harness is accessible at the top of the door. any help would be appreciated! scott .

personally i thought the car looked great except for those darn rubber band tired wheels. i agree. *what is* this facination recently with gigantic rims ive seen 4x4s with rubber band tires! wtf ah ... this explains some of why we disagree. i too am driven to some degree on this subject by my beliefs. i believe that this earth is all we have and it is all we are going to have ... at least in my lifetime. therefore i am looking a little further ahead than you perhaps. well i have yet to find an evolutionist that can explain the discrepancies of the evolutionary timeline as well as the scientificly proven evidence from genisis. the biggest problem with evolution is its not provable with empirical testing. evolution is awefully deep for this forum ... besides being agnostic im not sure that i believe in evolution. ; i suggest we take the spiritual side of this to email if you wish i dont wish upset certain persons. if you wish to do so just remove the spam from my email address. just with a quick glance at my niv and kjv bibles i cant locate that verse do you know where it is agreed. i will email you today. i agree that often other options should be considered but americans are spoiled brats. you can say that again. is small enough i have to put the top half way down to change my mind but seriously it is fun it gets about 5 miles per gallon more 26 vs. 21 than my old d-150 with a 318 but on the other hand i cant fiddle with it to get more mpg or performance like i could the truck. i drive a 99 cavalier ack to work everyday. it gets about 30 mpg compared to my truck 02 ram 1500 360 4wd that gets 11.5 mpg with a tail wind going down hill with the engine turned off. ; i beg to differ. people of middle eastern decent have no problem drilling that wasteland for $$. in fact they would likely disappear if they didnt. which that alone is a great reason to reduce our dependency ... i hope i didnt read what i think you said. cut them off and let them die what i meant by disappear is not the people but the issues the middle eastern countries cause. if they dont have the $$ one of two things will happen 1 they will all kill each other or 2 they will actually move forward and present something else of value research technology etc to the world. i hope its the latter but something tells me it will be the former. in either case its something that they need to resolve without our assistance. anyway bedouins think that same wasteland is the most beautiful place on the planet and they are the majority of the populace there. is the term wasteland your opinion or theirs i know nothing of the bedouins. i will have to look into that. here again do we go by your opinion of what is wasteland or the opinion of the local residents. when i said moab ut was beautiful i meant it but i dont care to live here. i like moab. i live in dallas ... and its butt ugly. i still dont want it drilled however. i plan to move back to the co mountains next spring. i snow ski twice a year in colorado. i would like to have some land in steamboat springs. does that make my opinion of moab more or less important than my step-mom-in-laws who has lived here since the late forties after being born in virginia that depends how you feel about your in-laws. seriously i see your point. apparently im a little older than you. bg im at that age 34 where older people think im young and younger people think im old. its very confusing. ; from what i remember of those same presidents i think they spent monies we did not have to begin with on programs for special interest groups. yes some of that happened. is spending pseudo-dollars on the environment wiser than pseudo-dollars spent on the sex life of cockroaches or on programs to increase employment and education yes on all except the cockroaches. ; good can happen on all. on the environment i happen to think that focusing on that more will increase employment and education. alternative energy is a high-tech industry. i know a good many displaced ee and me folks right now. the problem with the epa is they acept theory as fact. they do little or no empirical experimentation and follow whims like theyre gospel. some of the epa may now have scientific degrees but are they in applied physiscs are they in chemistry meterology or are the philosopical doctorates are they really doing any research with controlled experimentation i cant answer with any certainty. i can only tell you what my exprience was when i applied to the epa. they wanted a minimum of a masters in enviromental science for the position i was looking at. other positions require chemistry or physics. to your point these qualifications may not apply to the executives. then add to it the deceptive practice of wording the claims o

tom good advise. i talked with bd today and thats what they advised. your also correct about the ecm. bd uses the term ecm which is incorrect in the case of the dodge. i did learn a couple more things when i started to dig into things. the module is an auto-loc not a torq-loc. sorry... i monitored the tcc line coming from the module to the clutch with a laptop. it registered approx. 12.5 volts with both the auto-loc and the ignition turned off. then i drove it with the auto-loc switched off and you could see when the tcc tried to lock-up at around 45 mph. the line dropped momentarily to 0v and would drop in time with the surge. it was the same on the line coming from the pcm to the auto-loc. i forced the line low with a jumper and the tcc locked. that would lead me to believe the clutch is ok. i monitored the wss speed sensor line coming from the pcm to the auto-loc. im not sure what the signal is supposed to look like but it seemed erratic peaking around 5v. however im not having speedometer problems and it does try to lock up around 45 mph. so the wss abs system seems to be ok. no lights - no trouble codes. shop manual some help but not much with diagnostics. ill keep you advised. .

craig christian wrote as a matter if fact i do. do you have any idea what clinton did with the bond market i didnt think so. you state that i need to look up information ... perhaps taking a bit of your own advice would help here. yes i do as a matter of fact. doesnt change the fact that bonds did poorly in the 90s. thats often the case when people are fooled into believing the skyrocketing stock market was sustainable despite economists predictions of the opposite. the point i was trying to make is that i still invest and so does everyone else yet we see declines up until recently in our investments. can you explain that the entire global economy is down except the usas. the usa economy is actually growing even though the rest of the world is still falling. ive made quite a bit of money in the market this year easily recouping all of my losses from the prior 4 years. where are the investment dollars going my spending habits havent changed and i think that is probably the case with most americans that still have jobs. youre dillusional to think unemployment is high right now. it is lower than the average of the so called great clinton years. median wages have gone up ahead of inflation meaning people are making more now than in the 90s adjusted for inflation. it is all public record if you take the time to research it rather than just believe the liberal propaganda. tell me which canidate will gain the most votes from bad economic reports i think you know... its a bi-product of trickle down economics. we have reagan to thank for that. reagan boosted the economy greatly. interest rates under carter were double digits as was inflation. reagan got the economy turned around. you might complain about the tax cuts causing the deficit but thats where liberals go wrong. as the economy grew under reagan the governments tax revenue went up considerbably even with the low taxes. liberals just do not seem to understand just how the government gets its money..hint its not just from income taxes not even close. had reagan not cut taxes the economy never would have risen as quickly and the deficit would have been even larger from even lower revenues. true but a lot did produce and continue to produce. thats what the stock market is. so what is your point my point is that the so called great economy of the 90s was not sustainable. it was the publics willingness to blindly invest trillions into high risk stocks. the economy had no where to go but down. i know where it came from. it is still coming from those places. market correction is the nature of the beast. not so. people are not investing trillions into high risk stocks. they learned their lesson from the 90s. republican economics is like me or you deciding that at some point in the future we are going to win the lottery ... so we go ahead and start budgeting and spending now. does it make sense to spend money you dont have does it make sense to tax the heck out of people in a falling economy does it make sense to heavily tax people when they dont have much as it is bush realized the economy would never grow if that were the case. i will agree with you that government spends too much but the answer isnt higher taxes like kerry wants. the problem is that nobody wants to cut social programs for people that are more likely to vote. thats a problem from both sides but especially true of the left who gains the most votes from this policy. well now that depends on what you call employment. many of my friends that use to write software before their jobs went to india now deliver pizza. sigh. another lefty who uses emotions rather than fact. read the labor report. the median income has risen the past few years ahead of inflation. it is public record go research it then tell me the same story. in the past 4 years 2 million jobs have been outsourced. what the left wont tell you is that 9 million have been insourced. again the median income of the insourced jobs per the latest labor report shows they are higher than the outsourced jobs. riiighhhttt ... great economy miles. statiscally at some point during clintons years i suspect you are talking about the first couple of years there was more unemployment. but the jobs were better and higher paying which fueled the kick ass economy we saw on the mid to late 90s under democratic economic leadership ... not republican. fueled by blind investing that was not sustainable. wages are now higher adjusted for inflation. i realize you wont believe my word so take a look at the labor report for facts. its all there even though the dems try to fool you otherwise. btw my company is undergoing its largest expansion in 20 years. things couldnt be better. sure it is everyone is following bushs example ... buy now pay later. that would be true if personal debt were rising. here we g

i am summerizing from a book i read about alaska 2 years ago. i would be interested in knowing where your figures come from. perhaps mine are in error. and who wrote the book environmentalists think of it like this if there was as little oil as your book claimed then trucking the crude would have been a cheaper option than building that huge pipeline. secondly our civilization is too dependent on it to ever give up oil and third read my reply to jeff and think about how many oil based products you use yourself then multiply that by 3/4 of the world population. i understand what you are saying and i realize that a sudden switch off of oil is unrealistic. but we can move the process along faster than we have. bush made some progress but he could have done better. there are a couple of reasons why he didnt 1 his major contributors are oil companies 2 he comes from the oil mentality himself and 3 i dont think he really gives a shit about the environment. his record proves that. and your info has a definite liberal bias. kerry is getting his monies fron the heinz family. thats better than an oil source not to me. of course im guessing here but suspect that many many thousands of jobs could be created at every level r&d manfacturing sales if more time money and energy was focused on viable alternative energy. first a viable energy source needs to be developed discovered invented or currently nothing can do the job like oil. you need to remember that most of the sources being touted today were replaced by oil not too long ago. not trying to push any hot buttons here but if we spent 120 billion on alternative energy instead kicking iraqs ass wed be a lot closer to a solution that would in the end solve the issue in iraq. if clinton had put that surplus during his administration toward the national debt it wouldnt be as large today as it is. but in reality there was no surplus. as for myself i sleep better knowing saddam is no longer in power. now if we could catch the leasders of the al queda . . . it will be drilled someday even if its your kids that beg for it. well now that depends on who we elect and what alternatives we as a country come up with now doesnt it only in dreams only in dreams. im from the generation that began the whole environmental stuff and were no closer than we were 30 years ago. -- budd pres. bush john kerry has changed his position on the iraq war so many times he could debate himself. b.c. and lose. . 222 291048 vtcdnykupioxcrvn-hw@comcast.com you r wrong bill john kunkel wrote john kunkel wrote on thu 7 oct 2004 john kunkel wrote the engine speed is not connected with the oil consumption. if your engine consumed or lost 4 quarts of oil in 800 miles you either have a whipped engine or a large leak. disagree many vans had ridiculously low axle ratios and the absence of od would have the motor running at 3500+ rpms at freeway speeds. a tired motor will suck more oil at 3500 than it will at 1800. ...and a non-tired engine will use no more oil at 3500 than at 1800. blanket statements like the engine speed is not connected with the oil consumption. invite disagreement. if the engine consumes a certain quantity of oil on each full combustion cycle the consumption will increase with engine speed simply because there are more cycles per minute. going with what you just said that would mean that oil consumption on a given engine would be the same amount per mile regardless of speed. iow - if you make a 400 mile trip on straight and level hiway you might make it in 10 hours or in 5 hours depending on whether you drove 40 or 80 mph. but from your statement you would use the exact same amount of oil for that 400 mile trip i.e. oil consumption would be have the same per thousnad mile rate. not saying i agree or disagree with your conclusions - just want to be sure you understand the end result of what youre saying. suppose an engine consumes one microgram of oil on each full combustion cycle two revolutions at 3500 rpm it would consume 1750 micrograms per minute but at 1800 rpm it would only consume 900 micrograms per minute. if a given vehicle is geared so that it turns 3500 rpms at a given road speed it will consume more oil per mile than one geared to turn 1800 rpm at the same road speed. therefore the statement the engine speed is not connected with the oil consumption. is incorrect. ah! i didnt realize you were talking about varying the engine speed by changing the gear ratio. bill putney to reply by e-mail replace the last letter of the alphabet in my adddress with the letter x ----== posted via feeds.com - unlimited-uncensored-secure usenet ==---- http//www.feeds.com the #1 group service in the world! 100000 groups ---= east/west-coast server farms - total privacy via encryption =---

john kunkel kunkel.j@shorts.comcast.net wrote in a certian minute volume of oil is consumed each cycle due to the surface finish on the cylinder wall. it is designed that way. ring lubrication. depends on what you call minute many engines in good condition go 5000+ miles with no discernible consumption as gauged by the dipstick. in high school auto shop i attained the hasting piston rings doctor of motors certificate i know big deal. the training taught that proper cylinder/ring lubrication can be attained with no loss of the lubricant. the phenomenon was illustrated by placing a hankerchief over a silver dollar and placing a lit cigarette gasp on the hankerchief. other than a brown smudge the hankerchief is not burned because the coin absorbs the heat; same thing happens in the combustion chamber the heat of combustion passes through the microscopic film of oil without burning it away and is absorbed by the mass of the cylinder wall. if not for this phenomenon the oil on the part of the cylinder wall exposed to combustion heat would be burned away and there would be no lubrication for the rings as the piston travels from bdc to tdc on the exhaust stroke; ring life would be very short. by minute i meant an extremely small amount. there is *some* oil burned but you would probably need some pretty sensitive scientific instruments to detect it. -- anthony you cant idiot proof anything....every time you try they just make better idiots. remove sp to reply via email .
