  1. yeah, I know where you're talking about. Next time I'm up that way I'll swing by and see if it's still there. Thanks for the help.
  2. thanks, I'll keep my eyes peeled. I'm in no hurry really. That microcenter is at bethel and linworth right? Is/was that shop in that strip right there?
  3. snappy comeback.....I've never heard someone say "fail" before on the internet. Seems you're on the cutting edge of internet badassedness. I better not mess with you as cool as you are.
  4. already have one....this old one is just sitting here doing nothing. I just used this old one to tune with and thought someone else could use it. I was wiping it out and the damn ac adapter died on it. No more than it's worth it doesn't make sense to dump money into it just to sell it unless I can get an adapter real cheap. No big deal...it'll go in the box with all the other old worthless pc's I have.
  5. yeah, I found them on ebay. Just thought someone local might have one thrown in a box somewhere. No big deal. Not worth the hassle of dealing with really for no more than the laptop is worth.
  6. last time I checked google wasn't local. Trying not to pay $20 plus shipping for an adapter to go on a $50 laptop. That might be a little hard for someone to comprehend when their dream car is a fucking buick.
  7. I'm looking for a cheap adapter. The laptop is old and I'd like to get an adapter so I can sell the laptop. It's an HP omnibook 4150. output: 19V 3.16A Does anyone have one or know where I could get one cheap?

    fail

    I think the guy is a tool but you have to admire him for wrenching every single penny out of this that he could.
  9. If the same D shows up for the cardinals this week that's been there the last 2 weeks the eagles are going to have their hands full. I like the cards chances at home against them. Donovan makes to many bad decisions and the cards DB's will make him pay....that's if they show up.
  10. When I open a thread it'll load 3-4 times. I upgraded to IE 8 beta last week. I'm wondering if it has something to do with that?? Ideas...thoughts...suggestions. Get rid of IE is an option I guess and see if it does it with firefox but I've used IE forever and just look at it as the demon I know.
  11. they're jacking up my entire quality control system...... smells like cologne leave it alone....smells like sea kitten have a dish. See how stupid that shit sounds?

    walmart

    he's the king of that shit. He went to mickey D's one time and ordered at the counter. He said " I'd like to have a cold burger on an old stale bun with a warm pickle and a shot of mustard and ketchup." The guy said " We can't do that." He said " I don't see why the hell not, you did last week."

    walmart

    My uncle had a good one at wal-mart a few years ago. He's in his late 50's and bought a cd at wal-mart. He gets in that line that takes forever. When he gets to the register the chick notices it has a parental discretion sticker on the cd and tries to be cute by saying " Are you old enough to buy this?" He says, " I wasn't when I got in line."
  14. I noticed that too.....not sure why. I thought maybe because of all the shared components. If you look at the top it lists pretty much the entire gen3-4 platform.
  15. Not sure if you guys have seen this. Might help someone at some point. http://service.gm.com/gmspo/mode6/index.html
  16. there are definitely better ways but I've used that to diagnose charging issues (usually just to determine a bad battery or alternator) for 20 years and it's worked for me. A load test would be preferred but this has always worked for me.
  17. on the other side of the coin are the add on cruise controls from J C Whitney or somewhere like that. I bought my dad one for his truck a few years back and we put it on. Very easy and fairly cheap. The drawback is not having it integrated into your steering wheel. His had a little 2"x2"x.5" control that we mounted to his dash. Overall it worked perfect for him.

    tranny problem

    there's a thumbwheel down near the bottom of the column that you can turn to line everything back up and there's also 2 torx screws down there that have been known to come loose.
  19. did you figure this out then? Have you put a voltmeter across the battery with the engine running to see what your alternator is putting out? Should be ~14.4volts at idle.
  20. he forgot where he put the car....he'll hunt for it tomorrow.
  21. throw a voltmeter across the battery with the car idling and see what the alternator is putting out....should be ~14.4 volts. I'm assuming you tapped your racetronix kit into the back of the alternator right? That could explain your fuel pressure loss. You could check all the wiring like someone above said but I personally would start by checking that alternator.
  22. sucks, been there and done that. Had some white trash bitch run her mirror down my gto a month after I bought it. No insurance. I have full coverage so I figured I'd file a claim and let my insurance company handle it. Found out it doesn't quite work that way. They called her and tried to get her to pay but of course she was too busy fine tuning her meth lab and didn't pay. Then the insurance company sends me a letter saying they will continue to go after her but it'll cost me more money to do it.
  23. if he'd spend a little less time with this horse shit and a little more time out getting girls drunk he would've been laid by now. If you're a loser I really see no need to show 5 million people that you're a loser.
  24. Anyone go to the Thursday test and tunes at kil-kare? If so, how crowded is it and how many runs can you get in?
