  1. Considering the Romans just pull that finger and see what happens.
  2. No more space under the hood and easy fixes most can do. Even spark plugs get hidden under clutter so a leaking valve cover messes up the spark. Can a car have bumpers that don't damage costing hundreds hehehe. Nope it would cost hundreds maybe thousands to give a guy a push start.
  3. Ah the days of parking on an incline to always get started.
  4. A contractors supply store might have the stuff for guys fixing roll around stuff. In the states a store like Grangers always amazes with what they stock.
  5. Texas Rangers? You must mean the refugees of the Washington Senators “After the 1970 season, owner Bob Short declared he would not renew the Senators’ lease at RFK Stadium in D.C. unless someone bought the team from him. Arlington, Texas, mayor Tom Vandergriff convinced Short to move the team to the Lone Star State, where the franchise became the Rangers.”
  6. Is that real and if so which town? I could be the mini me in a picture.
  7. Few years back an american cooking oil company sold fast food places started using the oil that was the same way.
  8. Way back I spent a couple days hunting down Indian rain dance chants on the iPhone. Hopefully the mountains don't scrape most of the moisture out of clouds.
  9. Looka like it's the cops who got kicked out with their cat that was also pigging out.
  10. Electronics can fool you. First thought is a bad cell. Once running the the charging and other ceells can cover for the bad cell but I'd call it a leaky cell that drains the other cells down while sitting idle. There's normally 6 cells with 2 volts each. Alternator charges to 15volts so after turning off one bad cell gives you 13 volts good for starting but after sitting idle the drain gets to it. Then there's the alternator diodes. If it's an alternator not generator the alternator makes AC and diodes are supposed to be turning the alternating current into DC. But of the diodes start flaking out it can be off and on going back and forth from DC to AC to DC and on and on. A digital multimeter should be able to spot that problem seeing the positive and negative emblem of the meter swap back and forth once in awhile. Sears one time after a neww battery and it happened again that the battery went dead I told them it's the alternator diodes. So they wheel out the big tester cart testing everything and through another battery in hehehe. 3rd time they changed the alternator. A regulat needle type multimeter won't spot the negative and positive emblem switching around.
