  3. If you can bring it out to Johnstown, I will take a look at it. I am pretty certain that you just popped off the linkage on the wiper transmission. They are held together with plastic bushings, that I may even have and if not there is a CarQuest and a napa local. Best bet it to just call me at home. 740-967-4324
  4. Yeah, ain't cheap. Go over to AGA off Greenlawn, talk to Brian Culpit, tell him Keith Foor sent you and tell him what you are looking to get. I will tell you now that you can't buy tanks any more, you have to lease them. Typical lease is 5 yrs. They will lease you a set of tanks, and give you the first fill normally. I have 2 oxygen, 2 acetylene 2 ultramix (for MIG) and an Argon through them. They are always fair with me, and I don't do a great deal of business with them. Typically only in there once a month, and the treat me like I was there every day and was one of there top customers. Needless to say I HIGHLY recommend them.
  5. I saw the one with the GNX's. It seemed like with that show, and the one that you are talking about here, combined with the things that they did to the cars. They really need to get better financing on for the shows. Hell, at least put some headers and a nitrous cam in the motor to get somewhat better of an effect. Hell, look at *** shit that goes on with that show Overhaulin. A set of Foose rims is 2 grand, let alone the paint work, interior, and the rest. Hell the rustang they just did had SO much body cancer that they put an entire new front assembly from the firewall forward on it. A TRUCKLOAD of shit from year one and a NEW 347 crate direct from Ford SVO. All that shit costs BIG bucks. And it ain't exactly like Chip Foose needs to advertize his work on that show. Had another thought, has anyone ever considered what these shows do to the hotrodding hobby as a whole? I mean those guys take a beater and turn it into a prize willing show custom in a week. So why does it take a backyard wrench an entire weekend to do a simple motor swap? That's the question that our wives will be asking after two or three episodes.
  6. Got the message, loud and clear. NO more bullshit, you have my word.

    Thanks Chris. I am gonna cut the shit out. Glad someone is of the opinion to let me try to.
  8. graemlins/thatfunny.gif How would you know about sex good or bad Jack????? And ya'll don't know wha ta bad thanksgiving dinner till you turkey roll, Stove Top Stuffing, canned cranberry sauce, INSTANT potatos, canned gravey, topped off with brown and server rolls.
  9. Well damn, so much for the kinder gentler CR. Stillman, you meaningless little penis holster, your mouth runs enough that you should figure a way to get it to power your car. And if stupidity was a fuel, you'd blow past top fuel cars powering your Nova (shitbox) with it. The idea of me backing off has little to do with anything other than an attempt to be a bit more civil in here. But obviously, cryin little bitchs like you don't want to see that. You figure that you gotta run that penis holster in your face and start shit. I should have known that a little bitch like you would HAVE to rebuke ANYTHING I do. You call me a nutswinger, yet ANY comment I make YOU have to throw your needless bullshit in the mix on. I envision you sitting there in your little apartment, starting at the computer, clicking the refresh over and over, just waiting for me to post something so that you can say some bullshit that reflects your intelligence to all that read it. I do find it comical that you refer to me as being a kiss ass, when your trying to crawl up my ass with the consistency that you do. Purely fucking amazing!! I am curious though, did you have to work at being the ignorant cock smooch that you are, or are you naturally gifted???
  10. Slow ZO6 has a good point, but if it's silly rich, it ain't gonna run on ether then either. In fact the idea that it was NOT running on ether is the biggest giveaway, since it had spark. It it had lost timing, it would be blowing fire all over the place.
  11. OK, black plugs. Means that either it's getting too much fuel, which would explain the ability to run wide open, but fall on it's face at idle. First pull the codes again. If that doesn't show anything look at the air temp sensor. Reason is that if it thinks it's colder than it it is will feed more fuel when it's in open loop thinking it needs choked (carb speak). If you can find someone with an analyzer,hook it up and pay attention to the temp reading that the computer is claiming te air temp to be. Remember that it's probably NEVER going into closed loop because or the extreem rich fuel mixture. Here is the thing, you need to step back, and look at what the car is telling you. Fuel delivery problems will make a car idle and not rev up. It takes LESS fuel to ge a motor to idle than to run wide open. Blackened plugs, means either it's rich, or your burning oil. And they look wet with oil burn, and it's not a black dust that wipes off, but rather an tar like residue if it's burning oil. Lean plugs are white, or very light. Dying once it warms up, is alother excess fuel hint. When you fire a carbed motor, with a manual choke, you close the choke, fire the motor. As the motor starts to chug, and cough, you open the choke (leaning out the mixture) and the motor will smooth back out. As it begins to warm up more it will chug again. And then you finish opening up the choke. I am guessing that you are holding the pedal to the floor to get the motor to fire up. When it fires, it chugs and coughs, then starts to spin up, and as soon as you let off it it falls on its face, and you may be smelling gas when you first fire it up before the cat con comes to temp. Also, you need to look at the cat con after a short drive, or after running *** motor for a bit. I am guessing that it's glowing, another indication of excessive fuel being burnt off in the cat con. Take a look at the throttle body as someone fires up the motor, and be carefull to not get overly close as excessively rich mixtures can cause backfires through the intake tract and blow fire out the throttle body. See if it seems lik there is an excessive amount of fuel being sprayed, or if its leaking or not pulsing but rather a straight spray. Just some thoughts.
  12. Hey, you seem to be knowledgeable about flight sims. I am looking to find the flight sim that has the SR-71 Blackbird as a plane in it.
  13. Yeah, I saw the pics of the snowcat. What were you wanting for that????
  14. Guess I need to say something. In me being me, I have said some shit that was uncalled for pertaining to the break of anger between Anthony and IPS / Race Club / other involved parties. Anthony, first off, I am sorry for the comments directed at you specifically, and the questioning of not only your sencerity but your sensibility and sanity. I AM happy for you that you have gotten things squared away in your personal life and with old friendships. Now, as far as Sam, Ken, Kenny and a few others that I tend to create tension with on a REGULAR basis. I am gonna back off that shit as well. I realize that ther have been some highly questionable statements made by me in the past for various reasons. I see now that I need to relax when these statements are brought up and let the ribbing roll down my back more. It's gonna be a LONG COLD winter, so maybe we can agree to disagree and maybe not sit and screw with eachother. I am going to do this, I hope that you will do the same. Lets make CR a kinder place that ALL feel welcome.
  15. Stillman, you shit, I should have dropped the color printer on your head when I had th chance and done a bunch of people in here a big favor. Go build you Nova and hush.
  16. I am all over that dragster, consider it sold!!! I am also wanting the little fabbed up deal with the 4 rear tires, looks like you tried to build a track vehicle, or a snowcat. I will only buy thought if you not gonna be pissed when the dragster is faster than your full size car. graemlins/grin2.gif Also I need the specifics on the two pistol grip radios. The one is a tower hobbies entry level. The other seems to be a Futaba Magnum Jr. Does it have the adjustable steering stops and steering rate? If your not sure that's ok, just PM me with the model number. Also, I need to know the color or the speed gems motor. The case color on those indicated the number of turns on the armature. And what loose parts do you have besides the little track/snow car thing. I would also be interested in parts, speed controllers, tires and the like. Let me know. And thanks in advance.
  17. Good deal, so I assume that Sam finally towed your car behind his vette so you could see what it was like to go fast. graemlins/nutkick.gif
  18. Hmmm, car 2 looks like an Optima Mid with the aftermarket chassis. Most all of the cars from that era were ABS plastic tub chassis's. The second one was also a Kyosho car, that was converted (tub chassis removed) I would bet that the chassis either broke or the guy was attempting to save weight. As far as radio's Crystals are NOT interchangeable from an FM radio to an AM radio. And in some cases will not work from different manufactures. Also, they will be marked TX and RX for transmitter, and receiver. They will not work if not put in the right device as the crystals are cut for different frequencies for the transmitter and the receiver even theough they are for the same channel.
  19. graemlins/thatfunny.gif Once again, Jack, this time for the record, what is it that you are driving again? All right, All right, since everyone else seems to be getting to warm and fuzzies, and applogizing all over the place I suppose, being the nutswinger that some claim me to be I will jump on the bandwagon and say I am sorry to. I am sorry that I am such a prick. I an sorry that I come in here and start shit. I am sorry that I question shit that sounds to far fetched to be reasonably the truth. Hold on, I am thinking about the rest of it. Oh yeah, I am sorry for saying that Mark's gay, wait, never said that so I recant that one. Sorry for making long, boring posts. Sorry for driving Ben away from the meets. Sorry for arguing with Sam, Ken, Anthony, Ben, Stillman, Jack, and *** rest of you that I have went rounds with. Sorry about saying silly shit about 6 second cars. Sorry for being me. Uhhhhhh, OK, now that my happy happy joy joy bullshit phase is over, the only think I can say I am sorry about is for those of you that have lost something. Specifically your minds.
  20. Intelligent words coming from the asshole promerly known as Jack please Pee on me. As far as your DSM, my SUV will outrun that. ANd what the fuck has Delaware have to do with anything, I dont live in Delaware, thanks for your input, please try again.

    Coschocton

    Cut them open with a dull saw and piss on their beating hearts. That or chain em to a bed, douse em in diesel fuel and set em ablaze every once in a while, then put em out with baking soda.
  23. graemlins/thatfunny.gif Hey urine boy, what is it you're driving again that will run with my carbed car???
