Q: beryl wrote i sent the site a note about the error. they changed the question. used to be two boxes now two triangles and standing on their pointy ends so its clear where the force is applied to the horizontal beam. the correct answer previously with the boxes was 60kg. that answer wasnt among the choices. question 31 square boxes 2 units in width. box a occupies first boxwidth space left of fulcrum. box b occupies third boxwidth space right of fulcrum. wouldnt it be 100 kg if box a has 1/3 the leverage that box b has and they balance box b weighs 1/3 the amount of box a. 1/3 of 300 kg is 100 kg. how did you get 60 kg -- ken .

jmc wrote .... yea on what that old klunker teaches the inklings of fiscal responsibility. spend the $ on booze you find yourself walking a lot. well if the parents did their research right the old klunker wouldnt need so much work to be kept running. my first car bought in 1987 was a bright yellow 1976 chevy chevette with about 80k miles on it. paid about $700. i did my research though and it was a sound little car. when i sold it a couple of years and 40k later id put maybe $200 worth of repairs into that little thing. broken u-joint and a bad solenoid. not bad for an 11- year old car. incidentally i saw that car again circa 1997. it was still on the road! sometimes i still miss old mello yello... jmc my first car was a vette i remember the chevette. almost bought one. my first car was a hand me down 1974 vega. great little car until it started to burn oil. then lookout. that car had the most comfortable front bucket seats that ive ever owned. which was great because the car sure couldnt get out of its own way. i had to turn off the a/c to get onto the highway. i remember the day i traded the car in. the salesman drove over to the appraiser and had to let the smoke clear for 10 minutes before he went inside to get him. bob .

my 07 dakota 4.7l auto gets areound 15-16 mpg city and a little over 20 mpg hwy. i have about 15k miles on it and am running 100% synthetic oil in it. answered my own question! https//dealerconnect.chrysler.com/portal/bzcontent/service/g30.pdf what the hell is this part about each dealer to whom vehicles in the recall were assigned will receive enough oxygen sensor modules to service about 20% of those vehicles. so if a particular dealership took delivery of 50 trucks that fit the recall parameters theyll receive parts to repair 10 of them yes thats the initial allocation of parts that are automatically shipped to dealers. the dealers are then expected to reorder the parts as needed as their stock is depleted. mike .

on oct 31 151 am nosey kfre...@removethis.hotmail.com wrote dealers arent very good at providing fast service even for oil changes. ive had to wait that long as well. but they do it right. ill never go to quick lube places. i understand shops even dealers getting backlogged once in a while but if i have an appointment i expect to be served relatively close to the appointment time. there is no excuse for making a customer wait 2-1/2 hours beyond his appointment time for an oil change. -- ken theres no excuse paying more than the cost of the materials for an oil change. also you shouldnt complain since youre not the one doing the oil change. every time i want to be without my vehicle for hours if not days i take it to the dealer. .

on oct 29 827 am nosey kfre...@removethis.hotmail.com wrote quad wrote i have a 02 dodge 3/4 cummins and the fuel gage reads 1/4 tank and the tank is empty. i bought a new sending unit and lifted the bed of the truck and removed the in tank metering assembly. in looking at the metering lever it looks like the float my have been hanging up. i am trying to replace the sending unit and i cant figure out #1 how to disconnect the sending unit wires from in tank metering assemble plug and #2 how to release the sending unit from the assembly. thank you for any help. i replaced the fuel sending unit in my 99 diesel. i ran out of fuel with just over 1/8 of a tank. i think my module might be different than yours. the parts guy had a hard time finding the right sending unit for my truck. does your fuel module look like thishttp//i24.tinypic.com/15xqrsi.jpg to remove the wires i had to grind a small screwdriver down to release the locking tab inside the connector. that was a huge pain in the ass. if i had to do it again id cut the wires and splice connectors on the module side wiring that mate with the factory connectors on the new sending unit. on my module the sending unit slides down the track and off the bottom. i dont remember how it was released from its position but i dont think i had any difficulty with it. -- ken ken yes this is the same assembly. i was wondering if the plug the wire ends were in could be removed and make getting the new ends easy to r/r. if i splice the wires it may change the resistance and the gage could read incorrectly bob .

hello all. i just replaced all the front end parts on my brothers truck used the same control arms but new bushings and new ball joints. it is a 92 dodge d350 2wd truck with a cummins in it. the list of parts replaced is as follows -upper ball joints -lower ball joints -inner tie rod ends -outer tie rod ends -control arm bushings upper and lower -drag link -idler arm -new shocks i tried to put the adjustments back as close to where they were when i took the thing apart. when i first backed the truck out of the garage and turned the wheels all the way the outside edge of the wheel wanted to dig a trench in the yard.. i figured it was just improper alignment. i took it to the alignment shop and supposedly they aligned the truck and had no problems but when i turn the wheel all the way in either direction the wheels literally are scrubbing the tread off the tires super quickly. in fact the steering now binds to the point that the truck will stop when you have the wheel at full lock. driving in a straight line the truck wants to pull to the right and has some severe bumpsteer. it was easier to drive the thing and the tires wore less before i did anything to the truck! i am puzzled as to what is wrong if the alignment is proper.. i figured since the tires are a bit cupped from running about 10000 miles with worn ball joints the outside edges of the tires were just trying to catch up to the inside but that does not really explain the tire scrub. any ideas would really be appreciated. i am wishing i hadnt done anything to the truck now.. do a google search using ackerman effect. the factory uses the same front end parts on trucks with different wheelbases but the steering geometry is correct at only one specific wheelbase. i have driven gm long wheelbase long bed crew cab pickups that scrub so bad on a tight turn that they wont move forward on solid ground until the steering wheel is moved toward center. .

well i figured it out today. boy do i feel like a dumbass! i somehow got confused and installed the drag link backward. i laid on the ground this afternoon and looked at it for a long time... fortunately i had taken a couple of pictures of the parts laying on the floor.. i remembered the tie rod ends were at a ninety degree angle to each other when i removed the old link... with the drag link backward the tie rod ends were in the same plane... i gently removed the parts and re-oriented the drag link. the mofo is golden now. no scrubbing of tires no binding. honestly i havent ever seen a suspension that would work with the parts in backward. the alignment guy must not do enough of this type of front end to notice the difference. it looked right. now it feels right. i am so glad! thanks for your responses. i learned about the ackerman effect which is ultimately what led me to realise my error of installation. im just glad i didnt ruin the tires in the process or bend anything.. its hard to admit when you screw up.. might as well do it on the internet! lol .
