    Robbed gas mileage!

    There is a specified torque that the spark plugs should be tightened to. This requires a torque wrench. If you don't have one, there are normally directions for hand tightening as well. There is also a specified gap for the spark plug. Some come pre-gapped and may fit but others require you...

    Koreans make Hyundai. I don't know what else he would call them.

    Auto Transmission fluid change questions.

    Well, I may be contradicting everyone here, but this is my personal experience. With auto tranny fluid, if you don't change it regularly, you are better off not changing it at all. Don't ask me why, but I had the auto tranny fluid changed in my old car with brand new stuff and the tranny would...

    Anyone watch USA basketball today?

    Seems like the US is getting better with every game. Serbia is the best team we've played yet, the defending world champions, and we spanked them. Admittedly, things went our way. 14 for 14 from the free throw line, and Serbia was not getting any 3's to drop. Our defense was good though, why...

    Chevy Commercial

    Yeah, just like the drive way in the pontiac commercial before movies where the GTO spins around and backs in the garage.

    Anyone watch USA basketball today?

    Yeah, I like his articles. And I thought it was a good idea to send the Pistons, and just replace the players who weren't from the US or didn't want to go with the best players from other teams willing to fill those roles. I'm also sad Micheal Redd didn't go since I'm a buckeye fan and he...

    Anyone watch USA basketball today?

    Nice shot AI made to save the day. There are many reasons why the US team is struggling. I think we should just send whoever wins the NBA championship to the Olympics. Anyone think the Pistons would have lost to Italy with maybe Duncan to replace Okur, I don't think so.

    The Villiage

    The movie kicked ass. Best ending of all his movies.

    advice from lifters?

    I used to use all that stuff and it was working, but it was costing me a lot. I stopped using it and couldn't maintain what I had without it, but oh well. Muscles don't come cheap.

    Oil and Oil Filter

    5W-30 should be good all year round, although in the summer you probably wouldn't have any problems with 10W-30 since you're in a hot environment. Mobil1 is a good oil, but there are others. I used to use the Mobil1 filter, but now I just use the Pure1.

    Tyson...

    Apparently he was doing good in the first round and then tore a ligament in his knee and it was all down hill from there.

    beater proteges

    I can't say that I've seen many beater pro's. Maybe one or two, but that's about it.

    How fast can you do a 1-2 shift before you are hurting the tranny?

    59K is good? I know old crappy cars with well over 100k on the original tranny? I sure as hell hope my ES lasts longer than that.

    Michael Moore thinks you're an idiot!

    I have a better job than I ever did. My neighbors are doing great. A couple of them lost their jobs because the head of their company was stealing money and they had better jobs within a week. Unemployment in the USA is lower than it has been in many years. Maybe if the rest of the world wasn't...

    I saw an interesting car

    Yep, thats it. No wonder I've never heard of it. Only 3 dealers in the entire U.S.

    I saw an interesting car

    Today I saw a car driving on the highway and I had no idea what it was. So I speed up and read the back, it was a Qvale Mangusta I believe. Anyone ever even heard of it? It looked pretty cool, but I really know nothing about it. Perhaps they are common place in Cali and the land of exotic...

    Detroit or L.A

    No s***. Shaq has 36 points and pulls down 20 rebounds and they still can't win? Ha ha. All you even need is for the rest of the team to just be decent. Even so, I gotta say that LA can be dangerous when backed into a corner.

    What do you want to be when you grow up?

    Well, I've almost got my degree in electrical engineering. Maybe, I'll like it, maybe I won't. But after all this school, I am being an engineer dammit.
