Q: go back to the ice cube in the glass of water... exact same principle. tell me how the ice cube is weightless. the ice cube is weightless in the water as it is floating . the glass of water will weigh more because you have increased the mass contained within the glass. there is no magic here. weigh the glass of water insert the ice cube into the glass of water weigh the glass of water + ice cube then tell us the results.......................... i already said that the glass would weight more. and yet you claim that the ice cube is weightless .

are you now saying that steam is a liquid or are you just spinning because you dont actually know the answer. no im trying to understand what you are saying. see i was taught that assuming the mass doesnt change and gravity doesnt change it didnt matter if something was solid liquid or a gas it would weigh the same in any form. so a gallon of water weights the same whether its ice water or steam. same with helium it weighs the same whether is solid liquid or gas. so now you claim that gaseous helium is weightless. well gaseous water must also be weightless as it always rises. so if my science teacher was right and everything weighs the same given the same quantity of the element and you are right helium is weightless then helium must not weigh anything at any time. so if helium is weightless and steam has the same behavioral characteristics steam must be weightless. if steam is weightless and all forms of the element weigh the same then water must be weightless. unless of course you are wrong and helium does weigh something when in gaseous form are you now saying that water vapor and liquid water are the same thing yeah sorta like your liquid helium and gaseous helium are the same. they both weigh something. however i dont recall many ships sailing in vapor do you depends on just how rough the seas are. really how. are you now saying that a rought sea is actually vapor lol sure why not. lets see where you go with this one. helium is actually lighter than air and that alone makes it different. steam is also lighter than air but its no different it has weight just like helium and just as air does. prove it. what is the density and atomic weight of steam no need for desity of steam and atomic weight of steam. the proof that steam or water vapor which is lighter than air has weight is called.......... wait for it......... rain. lol steam usually has liquid water in mechanical suspension and that makes it heavier than air. then how does it rise wait lets go back to that mechanical suspension of water vapor. is that a twin i beam ifs or solid axle. coil or leaf springs four link who says it rises i do. steam rises. pretty easy to prove go boil some water. perhaps some of that rising you see is due to the energy imparted on it from the pressure and temperature but steam does cool off. no water vapor cools off steam is steam. helium doesnt depend on its temperature being greator than that of the surrounding gasses to rise. ok what does it depend on mr. wizard put liquid helium on any scale under normal atmospheric conditions and it will have weight. put helium gas on that scale under the same conditions and it will show nothing at all. pure unadulterated bullshit. see tom ls example of the ice cube. no you just dont understand it or know that you cannot weigh it this way which makes it weightless by definition. http//www.hyperdictionary.com/search.aspxdefine=weightless ok so to follow your definition it looks like its weightless but its actually got weight are you now spinning or back pedalling really http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/earthsatmosphere#composition better take a look at this they claim it is part of earths atmosphere. lol different web sites say different things. but it is part of earths atmosphere according to the three differeent sources i found. -- max give a man a match and he is warm for a short while. light him on fire and he is warm for the rest of his life. water vapor and steam are not exactly the same thing. do you know the difference yup. same difference between helium as a gas and helium as a liquid. if steam has weight because its water vapor then so does helium as a gas. are you now saying that steam is a liquid or are you just spinning because you dont actually know the answer. water vapor disperses through the air and may be considered weightless ok so now water is weightless. jeez and all those diets to get rid of water weight..... are you now saying that water vapor and liquid water are the same thing however i dont recall many ships sailing in vapor do you depends on just how rough the seas are. really how. are you now saying that a rought sea is actually vapor lol helium is actually lighter than air and that alone makes it different. steam is also lighter than air but its no different it has weight just like helium and just as air does. prove it. what is the density and atomic weight of steam lol steam usually has liquid water in mechanical suspension and that makes it heavier than air. then how does it rise who says it rises perhaps some of that rising you see is due to the energy imparted on it from the pressure and temperature but steam does cool off. helium doesnt depend on its temperature being greator than that of the surrounding gasses to rise. pu

ive used bremerton dodge before for parts. they are in washington state. i ordered a new window regulator and a new side mirror from them great service and prices. i had hoped that the part would be $80-90 bucks but with a $300 retail its more likely going to be $180-200 range. owell.. still cheaper then having the dealer fix it.. -jr the dealer list price is $294.00 i have used www.dodgeparts.com in the past. there price plus shipping from seattle wa to indiana is cheaper than my local dealer. .

perhaps because they choose not to name this condition in the fsm or maybe it is an unexpected condition that happens enough to be given a name. if these things didnt happen then there would be no need for any tsbs. the fsm is specific as to the operation of the trans and its solenoids. no limp home mode is described. if it is an unexpected condition then its not an operating mode of the pcm but an unexpected condition. isnt that the point of a tsb max to talk about explain and define an unexpected condition perhaps this feature or behavior was not intended during the design of the system but that doesnt mean that it will not or cannot happen or that it will not later get a name if this unintended behavior is then shown to be consistent for a given set of conditions. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .

the lower end of the shaft goes into the rack and pinion assembly there are two large bolts holding it to the front of the cross-member with the bolts out the entire rack and steering shaft can be shifted towards the left wheel giving you room to work jack up the front wheels remove the two big bolts that hold the steering rack to the frame sigh...if jacking it up was an option that would be helpful...; shifting sand is all ive got... not quite clear on what you mean by steering rack...the shaft is sort of in the way i thought about unhooking it at the gearbox end... cricket then you can scoot the rack to one side so the steering shaft is out of the way attack from top okay its hot my dearly beloved not so much just now... tore down the shop so theres no place to work on this thing on level ground and im short...all of which is relevant *because*... i cant reach the damn thing! from the bottom i cant get at it without three extra joints in my arm no safe way to jack it up anyway. from the top i just cant reach period. obviously this is looking like a major project and i dont want to spend two hours dicking around with it only to find out that its absolutely impossible to get at from above/below and has to be attacked all over from the other way. so...anybody done one of these lately and if so any secret to getting at the damn thing ive done three s-10 blazer starters in the last four years and i cant believe i cussed about them...theyre a piece of cake when compared to this beast...; cricket .

water vapor and steam are not exactly the same thing. do you know the difference yup. same difference between helium as a gas and helium as a liquid. if steam has weight because its water vapor then so does helium as a gas. are you now saying that steam is a liquid or are you just spinning because you dont actually know the answer. water vapor disperses through the air and may be considered weightless ok so now water is weightless. jeez and all those diets to get rid of water weight..... are you now saying that water vapor and liquid water are the same thing however i dont recall many ships sailing in vapor do you depends on just how rough the seas are. really how. are you now saying that a rought sea is actually vapor lol helium is actually lighter than air and that alone makes it different. steam is also lighter than air but its no different it has weight just like helium and just as air does. prove it. what is the density and atomic weight of steam lol steam usually has liquid water in mechanical suspension and that makes it heavier than air. then how does it rise who says it rises perhaps some of that rising you see is due to the energy imparted on it from the pressure and temperature but steam does cool off. helium doesnt depend on its temperature being greator than that of the surrounding gasses to rise. put liquid helium on any scale under normal atmospheric conditions and it will have weight. put helium gas on that scale under the same conditions and it will show nothing at all. pure unadulterated bullshit. see tom ls example of the ice cube. no you just dont understand it or know that you cannot weigh it this way which makes it weightless by definition. http//www.hyperdictionary.com/search.aspxdefine=weightless ive simply taken your theory about helium gas and applied it to another elements as a gas and shown how your theory doesnt work. no you didnt because water vapor can be and is part of the atmosphere and helium is not. really http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/earthsatmosphere#composition better take a look at this they claim it is part of earths atmosphere. lol different web sites say different things. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .

jack up the front wheels remove the two big bolts that hold the steering rack to the frame then you can scoot the rack to one side so the steering shaft is out of the way attack from top okay its hot my dearly beloved not so much just now... tore down the shop so theres no place to work on this thing on level ground and im short...all of which is relevant *because*... i cant reach the damn thing! from the bottom i cant get at it without three extra joints in my arm no safe way to jack it up anyway. from the top i just cant reach period. obviously this is looking like a major project and i dont want to spend two hours dicking around with it only to find out that its absolutely impossible to get at from above/below and has to be attacked all over from the other way. so...anybody done one of these lately and if so any secret to getting at the damn thing ive done three s-10 blazer starters in the last four years and i cant believe i cussed about them...theyre a piece of cake when compared to this beast...; cricket .

the fan is not covered under the 7/70 powertrain warranty. i kinda figured. ill just swap it out myself. im going to call around tomorrow to locate one. -jr .

he forgot one basic fact of physics... everything has weight. this basic fact is why man started wondering why birds could fly. there had to be a countering force..... w r o n g!!! do you have birds falling out of the sky if not there is a countering force. everything has mass thus everyhting has weight even gaseous helium which has mass. but if you were in a point in space where there was no gravity or the force of gravity was negated by another force perhaps the gravity of another mass there would be no weight. um no. but do feel free to explain this. -- max give a man a match and he is warm for a short while. light him on fire and he is warm for the rest of his life. funny... a concept so simple i didnt think to question him on it till you brought it up. i wonder where he thinks atmospheric pressure comes from in the first place i mean - somethings gotta weigh something to generate that 14.7 pounds per square inch... he forgot one basic fact of physics... everything has weight. this basic fact is why man started wondering why birds could fly. there had to be a countering force..... w r o n g!!! everything has mass but if you were in a point in space where there was no gravity or the force of gravity was negated by another force perhaps the gravity of another mass there would be no weight. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .
