  1. I'm interested in a 2000 or newer, 100k or less, 4 cyl / manual shift extended cab, regular bed truck that's mechanically sound, cosmetically minor scratch and dent ok.

    My truck still runs so I'm cool with buying whenever.

    Order of preference -

    Ford Transit

    Dodge Dakota Magnum sport, dakota sport, or simply dakota, stepside bed would be ideal, would be ok with standard bed

    S10

    Ranger

    I have cash in the bank for right deal

  2. I bought it from a guy in columbus a couple years back and don't have the time to ride it so its up for sale - I got the MSO but no title with it, so I'll pass it along so any buyer can be assured it is not stolen. Fun little bike I put a little K&N style filter on it and put an aftermarket muffler on it. Bike runs, shifts, and rides fine. New tires with just a couple hours of easy field riding on them, brakes, shocks, chain and sprocket all good - plastics have some scuffs, as should be expected. Kick start only.

    You can call or text 740-358-3666 for details

  3. I can't get a straight answer from google, so knowing there's plenty of engineers here I'll post it - I'm looking to find how much ambient air temperature increases in the combustion chamber of a simple 10:1 CR engine. Does the air temp double, triple, go up 10x?

    Thanks in advance,

    Mike

  4. Looking for a mid to late 90s 4 cylinder manual transmission with good engine, dents and dings ok as long as engine, tranny, brakes, etc are good, I have around $1k to spend cash, I checked out a 96+/- Dodge Dakota Magnum sport 5 speed cylinder, extended cab, looked like it would do the trick if anyone has one for sale in my budget, thanks , my cell is 740-358-3666 for text or call

  5. Mobile Cycle Works in Ashley Ohio (just north of Delaware) - I sold him parts for years while I worked @ Cycle Search in Delaware (which is now shut down). His rates are reasonable - I took the 85 XR600 to him because after I rebuilt it, it ran and shifted fine, but smoked some. I wanted him to simply get it to stop smoking, put new tires on it, and put a new chain on it that I just bought. He discovered and discussed the problem of the smoking with me, identified a couple minor issues that needed addressed, found a major issue (rocker arm wearing out) stayed within budget, even shimmed up the front caliper and identified an issue I hadn't seen and discussed how I could fix it on my own, which I'll do on Monday. If you live north of Columbus, John's rates are 1/2 or better than other shops, he's timely and reasonable.

  6. Did some research apparently the capacitors in the 'hypermodule' need replaced, I bought a repair kit with step by step instructions on how to remove, repair, reinstall $43, $54 with new soldering iron, will let you know if I get a fail on the repair

  7. Here's a link to a vid of what its doing, anyone know how to fix? Barely paying bills so I can't just chuck it and replace

  8. 1985 XR600 manual says to fill frame reservior per dipstick, and fill engine cases with oil up to the oil check bolt... I don't see any filler caps on the engine cases or covers to do this... anyone else ever own one of these? Do you just overfill the frame reservoir and let the oil slowly fill the cases until it reaches the check bolt?

  9. So I'm sitting behind this 1995 +/- prelude with a fart can @ 768 turning onto Coshocton Rd in mt vernon (mod to my saturn - intake is a K&N filter bolted right onto the intake plenum @ the throttle body. We're both turning left, he takes the inside lane, I take the outside lane, I start creeping on him, he realizes the game and starts revving it up... I pwned him with the family car lol, the look on his face was priceless.
