Why I would not consider swapping in a Ford 3.5 ecoboost.

Huh, I guess I'm just dumb, because I don't think I saw that eBay listing when I searched earlier. Well, thanks for the suggestions guys. I was a little worried it was a discontinued part or something, but it seems like there's a few, not many, but a few, places to buy an air filter for the car. Go...

Tell the stewardess it is your emotional support engine and without it you can't get onto an airplane or function like a regular person in anyway whatsoever.

Interesting. I considered buying a low mileage dark red ZZR600 once. I sat on the bike and it reminded me of my previous FZR600 which I had sold. The "Fizzer" as you probably know was also a 400 in Japan then available here as the 600. The sales guy said the zzr was the same exact bike as ...

I can probably guess who zzr250 is. The others? Wow aol is still a thing?

Saving up to buy this car. I just need to do the Super GT level with the Autobacs NSX 100 more times to get enough credits.

Still using my second chromebook which cost about 100 bucks. Updates stopped a couple years back but haven't had any problems. I was using Ubuntu on a laptop (64bit distro) and when I updated that it started acting super slow. I changed it to Lubuntu and it works great now. The easiest way to get st...

I like to use an angle grinder with a flapper wheel (24g-80g) to sharpen mower blades. Usually a 60g from harbor freight. So they don't get too hot I just do a few passes each end then set it aside and start on the next. If you count the passes and are nice and consistent it will still be nicely bal...

I would like to see that K2 edition tribute. Please post some pics when you have it finished.

Anyone watch that show on tv? They bought a Whizzer Sportsman and it was then completely restored. It's now for sale in NE Ohio on CL.

I looked at my 89 yesterday since the tank is currently out, and it doesn't seem to have that metal divider inside the filler tube like I saw on my old 86 XR. The 89 has a plastic hose (inside) that runs the length of the filler tube helping to vent air while fueling. So possibly another difference ...

I found a shop here in town that got me a set of Toyo Extensa HP in 195/50/15 but that was awhile ago. It made a big difference in acceleration having such a low profile tire.

Maybe Mr. Lofquist can expalin it. He has the sticker on his car.

The filler tube between the gas cap and the tank could also be an issue, along with the evap canister/line. Recently someone else was talking about the slow fill-up syndrome. Most cars I've seen have that extra smaller tube that runs parallel with the main tube that functions as an air vent while ad...

Glad I asked!
