craig@metronet.com wrote i had a 1977 mercury cougar with a 400m v8. it use to do the same thing. if i remember correctly the main bearings were worn paper thin gouged in spots due to previous owner abuse. i had to rebuild it. since this was my first attempt at rebuilding ... i knee jerked and put in a high volume oil pump. then i had the opposite problem ... everytime i started the car when cold id blow 1/2 quart of oil out of the rear seal because of too much pressure. lessons learned ... craig c. to much oil cannot be good too as you learned the hard way. usually the rod bearing go first when mains start to wear because they receive oil via cross drilling through the crank mains. also in hd applications a aux engine oil cooler can boost oil pressure and extend engine bearing life a good bit under heavy loads. all diesels have them they could not live long with them ----------------- www.thesnoman.com .

rofl... the left never did support our troops to succeed. this rhetoric from murtha is not new from the left. another accusation with no basis. just cant shake that elite-ist right mentality can you you have no proof and no point. craig c. .

on fri 18 nov 2005 151126 gmt tbone tbonenospam@nc.rr.com wrote like others have said since he didnt see the accident he really doesnt know what happened. hmmm.... vehicle #1 was progressing down a street vehicle #2 was coming out of a driveway. #1 has side-impact damage #2 has head-on damage. #2 tried to stop as evidenced by skid marks. its pretty obvious #1 didnt slide sideways from across the street into #2. its also obvious #2 was travelling at a certain rate of speed to make those skid marks - clearly moving too quickly to safely turn 90 into traffic. funny how you questioned the speed in your initial post in this thread saying with the minimal damage that vehicle 2 could not be going all that fast and are not whining to me about vehicle 2 going to fast to make the turn. you really need to back off on the noise level and make up your mind. those are all facts easily verifiable by looking at the scene. really were you there did you see the scene ah yes. but one more thing that tom knows absolutely nothing about but will argue endlessly about asi f he were an expert. time to sit back and watch tom prove himself a fool once again. now - is it possible that #1 was travelling in the left-lane and changed into the right striking #2 as he was pulling out into the right-hand lane possible dont know if it was a multi-lane road but say it was.... but still why the skid marks from #2 indicating as nate stated an initial speed of 30-35mph when the brakes were applied perhaps the skid marks were from another vehicle or perhaps vehicle 2s brakes were not functioning properly and only the rear wheels applied significant braking force. skid marks from the rear wheels only will cause much longer skid marks and you did know that right and thinking of that unless the driver was operating a yugo or similarly sized vehicle the skid marks for a vehicle traveling at 35 mph would be of a significant length so where exactly did driver 2 apply these brakes. then again perhaps the officer was using the density of the skid marks to determine speed but that would be influenced by the weight of the vehicle and if he estimated it incorrectly.... perhaps it was just the position of the sun blinding driver 2 and he couldnt see her and the officer decided not to make driver 2s day even worse than it already was since he was not driving carelessly. like i said before there are just too many variables. capable of performing this operation. as for the paint since the factory paint is for the most part shit anymore i dont see how the body shop could do any worse. so you wont mind if someone crashes into the side of your truck then offers to pay a body shop to fix it right i mean - itll be good as new so it really shouldnt make a difference lol please show me where in the above comment that you retained that i said that he shouldnt mind or that it shouldnt bother him .

tbone wrote supporting our troops has nothing to do with success or failure that would be supporting the war moron and you are right few with brains are doing that anymore. now this really does say it all. supporting our troops has nothing to do with success or failure tell that to our troops bonehead. supporting our troops means exactly that. it means supporting them in what they are doing and supporting them to get their job done. it does not mean you have to agree with the war. if you support the troops then you support them to finish their job. there is no other support except left wing bs that defines support their way instead of the troops way. yea right. i did notice that the rich right refuses to give up any of there bogus tax cuts to fund those troops. hell they are looking to have them extended and made permenant. yea real support there. the left and moderates are now bitching heavily in congress about budget cuts. youre a hypocrite tbone. to get them home safe and in one piece. that is not supporting them. they are there to do a job. support is helping them to do that so they can come home. support my ass tbone. you do not support them but are to politically correct to admit it. and yet they still reported the torture. they must be a bunch of lefty communust bastards then huh miles lol! youre the one that brought up fox not me. theyre media just like the rest. so why did you bring them up they were doing far more than that but as usual you see only what you want to with your right wing glasses. far more than that huh did they burn them to death drag them through the streets and hang them from a bridge where is your bleeding heart when it comes to our own troops nah youd rather follow the liberal band wagon and take the enemies side every time for political reasons. thats just sick and disgusting. complete bs. come to think of it i dont recall hearing much from the right about it either. perhaps because there isnt much that can be said about such a thing. not much that can be said what is it that you are trying to say here what our enemy does is not worth saying much but what we do thats not anywheres near as bad is worth ranting endlessly about...go figure. whos side are you on .
