    Reduced power after warmup

    Immediately after a cold start my 1990 XJ I6 feels like has more power and better throttle response than it does when it's warm. It's not a huge difference. But it's noticeable off the line. Those first few stop signs leaving my house in the morning; feels like it really twists right up and...

    Official Ron Paul 2012 Thread

    Why am I voting for Ron Paul? The federal government abuses the constitution to do what the heck it wants and I'm sick of it. I'm sick of the abuse of the interstate commerce and health and welfare clauses. This insanity really started in the Wickard v. Filburn case in 1942 when the supreme...

    HF Ham Radio Installation

    I finally made some progress on my HF mobile setup, so I decided to start a writeup. The most important decision to make regarded how to get on HF mobile is which antenna to use. Mobile HF radio is tough. Any antenna is going to be a serious compromise. Consider the 80 meters band. A typical...

    What's a rusty old J truck worth?

    http://burlington.craigslist.org/cto/1731605068.html Went and looked at it today. The bed has cancer, the underbody looks like it was painted with rust. They're asking $2500. I kinda want to buy it just for the buffalo on the tailgate. What would a fair offer be? Like, $100? It's not...

    More powerful hatch gas lift support strut things

    I'm trying to mount a rather heavy ham radio antenna to my hatch. Why? That's not what this thread is about, but the gist is that the rear is the only place on the jeep that will offer it sufficient protection from smashing, and I don't want to have to remove it or swing it out to open the...

    How to install spherical bushings?

    I have a set of teraflex sway bar disconnects, and the bushing were shot, probably because I never greased them because the zerks were all broken off. I was able to pound them out with a couple of big sockets and a BFH. I tried pounding the new ones in the same way; there was no friggin way...

    Kettle corn is awesome

    Just had to put that out there http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Kettle-Corn/Detail.aspx You have to be careful not to burn it. Use the 3 kernel test to know when the oil is ready, don't use too much heat, and shake the piss out of it while it's popping. Delicious! *homph homph homph* Also that...

    New Moy: Electric Mower

    I live on a postage stamp and after using an electric lawn mower once, I decided I wanted one. Batteries suck, I've had terrible experiences with them in all sorts of devices. I wanted an electric mower partly for reliability. So I went for a straight plug-in AC model...

    Motor & transmission mount fasteners (Brown Dog)

    I just received my Brown Dog motor mounts (stock brackets) and I'm going to replace the tranny mount while I'm at it. I'm a bit confused about the fasteners. The Brown Dog instruction seem contradictory. First it says to re-use the original mounting bolt from the side of the bracket. But I...
