out of gas with half a tank?

Q: tbone wrote what does this have too do with what budd said. iirc he said that me might vote for himself and his wife. what does that have to do with a third party. geez tbone youre going in circles here! you told budd that if he doesnt vote for bush or kerry its the same as voting for bush. which is for the most part true. if you dont want bush to serve another term then you need to vote for someone that actually has a chance of winning even if that were nader. to just cast a meaningless vote serves no purpose and is a mockery of our system. and since you have all wisdom tell us how a third party cannot win all it would take is enough votes cast for that candidate. i replied that while i do not like nader at all i agree with his views when hes stated many times that your type of logic is just absurd. not really. yes it is. its why so many dont bother to vote at all. no its people like you that vote down the party line no matter how poor of a job your candidate does and the fact that they all lie through their teeth that stops many. if you are just going to make a bs vote why waste your and my time lol the leading but barely so supporter for voting along liberal party lines is saying to not vote party lines!!!!! what a freaking hypocrite you are troll. not voting for bush or kerry means voting for some 3rd party even if its a party of one being yourself. unless your third party has even a remote chance of winning you are really just wasting your time and the time of others waiting behind you to vote. please explain exactly what purpose doing that would serve. any vote against kerry or bush is one less vote they have to tally for the electoral college votes. sufficient votes cast for a third party candidate would get them elected. if you understood the system of voting it would be obvious but its like your mechanical abilities . . . oh sorry forgot you dont have any of those either. kerry has almost no support of his own. just people that do not like bush. as much as the right would want to believe that it simply isnt true. and if it were doesnt that show just how bad of a job he did. kerry needs to attract his own support rather than worry about people voting for a 3rd party. what does kerry have to do with this this is what i said not kerry. oho!!! now your more important than the political issues . . . .what an ego you have troll. oh well read it again and see if you can explain this drivel will ya it makes no sense as written. -- budd pres. bush john kerry has changed his position on the iraq war so many times he could debate himself. b.c. and lose. .

youre right - i shouldve said sensitivity in db. got subs on the mind... sorry for the misinfo. regards joe azwiley1 azwiley1@scpoaxm.net wrote in great info right up to you mentioned spl. spl is used only in subs and relates to how much air it is/can move. the number/measurement you should have referenced is the efficiency rating of a speaker. iamgoode@aol.com iamgoode wrote in looking to replace my spekers and want to get something to match the factory infinity amps. can some one tell me the rms/peak watt ratings input apreciated. sean rec.bicycles.marketplace the factory infinify amp is nothing special - its about 15-20 watts rms per channel if that the peak power rating is 40 watts per channel as specified in the dodge literature. most decent aftermarket head units are more powerful. one thing to note the front speakers are component speakers in that they use a crossover to separate highs from lows. youll need a separate woofer/tweeter combination to replace them. if youre just replacing speakers and leaving everything else alone you wont need the crossover itself as thats built into the factory wiring. also due to the relatively low power of the infinity amp youll want to get the most efficient speakers you can find. a spl sound pressure level of 92 or higher would be good. regards joe .

on tue 19 oct 2004 060202 -0700 rg llllatex@yahoo.com wrote i drive a 94 dodge 150 cargo van with a six cylinder it has 160000 and the gas gauge does not work and it is carburetor. the tank capacity is 30 gal. usually the van goes a little over 400 miles on a full tank but recently ran out at 210 miles. i didnt think much of it at the time maybe i reset the odometer late or its simply getting real bad mileage and i have not noticed. however when i filled the tank it only took 18 gallons. i put 5 gallons in a can in the back and tested this a number of times and it seems to run out of gas between 210 and 265 miles and each time it only takes 15-20 gallons to fill. im thinking fuel filter or pump but the filter has been changed in the last 4 months and last time the filter clogged in this van it was notice under extreme fuel consumption conditions like up hills or acceleration and this is not the cas here. when the tank is full it runs perfectly. any help would be appreciated thanks rob also under the correct conditions fuel pump vacuum can suck all sides of the tank into the same physical space leaving very little room for petrol. so many garys ..so.. clyde .
