    The not a meme meme thread

    The post was to gently make the point that the first meme was manipulated and discredited (fake news). It also is distasteful in light of events of the past few weeks. I believe in responsible use of firearms, but they are for killing. And that is probably what many of the murders in the...

    Michigan Car Owner Sued After Jeep Kills Mechanic During Oil Change

    Its the law. It was passed to protect the company and their employees and to allow growth. The only recourse was to go after the owner. See if it works. It might. The only people who pay are the insurance companies and then I bet those rates go up.

    Michigan Car Owner Sued After Jeep Kills Mechanic During Oil Change

    Its just a way to get around a law that protects companies from being sued. The work around is stupid. I'll be most of us would say to change the law.

    Carb tuning: Bog off idle.

    I do not understand your message. Ran like a champ with the old Holley but still had the bog, or ran like a champ without the bog and then the bog came back after returning to the new carburetor.

    Carb tuning: Bog off idle.

    Might have missed something because I didn't read through the whole thread. You have AFR. Is it just the gauge, or are you logging it with RPM or time? Since you have the gauge, if you are not logging, I suggest figuring out how to log the AFR as the car bogs. If you are not logging it, you...

    Crock pot cookers.....

    It can smell up the house. Make it smell like cooking chicken. This can be a strange experience to wake up to. If you think that will bother you, open a window of ventilate some other way.

    The cold hard truth about electric vehicles in winter

    I know this will hit some the wrong way in so many days, but I'll share. First, a while ago I was walking through my neighborhood at dusk and had two electric cars go by. You know, it was really nice because they didn't break the peacefulness. We have chargers and a number around us. Second...

    Can someone explain emulsion tuning?

    I just did a scan on the web and saw this, https://www.quickfueltechnology.com.au/technical-info/emulsion-channels As I understand it, the air bleeds also do something to the tilt as well, but the emulsion is to fine tune in some way.

    Can someone explain emulsion tuning?

    In a simple way, the main jets control the position of the whole high speed fuel curve and the emulsion jets control whether it rises or falls, in other words the shape of the high speed fuel curve. I would need to refresh my memory by doing more reading about how exactly to adjust them, but...

    Scientists Abandon Search For Bill Nye's Credibility

    I agree. My kids liked watching him and i'll give him credit for explaining things, but he sometimes doesn't get it right and that isn't good.

    Holley nonadjustable

    I would look up on the web how to set the idle mixture screws. Something like I would start by gently seating them and then back out 1.25 to 1.5 turns. They should be the same on both sides. Then I would adjust to highest vacuum reading using a vacuum gauge. Both same amount. Then I would...

    My Covid Trip...

    I'll start by hoping the OP does well. Then there are a few things that I think need to be said because there is some misinformation that has unfortunately been percolating this thread and some others. I am assuming it is not political because I know none of us are political. I read that...

    popping the clutch in reverse.

    Can be a little thrill if the fast idle on the choke is stuck. Accelerated pretty quick before I shut it off again.

    My daughters heart

    I have similar thoughts as said above. Get as much information as possible about the causes, urgency for treatment, and alternatives, and risks. Get diagnoses from other doctors. My prayers for your daughter, you, and your family. I understand it is worrying, but seeing the doctors is the...

    Would sea level drop if we.....

    Out of curiosity, I looked up the article that Budnicks posted and I also looked at the original article. Both argue for warming, but at the lower end of the IPCC range. If I read correctly, it is 0.2 degrees per decade. I think the question was is it 0.2 or 0.3 degrees per decade. This is...

    That is so cool! :thumbsup: I figured they must exist (probably also in Hudson's bay region), but couldn't find them.
