Funny how the GM-built Hummers with the fake CTIS wheels have the real valve stem opposite the side that the fake CTIS hose guard detail is.

I had to crack up hearing kid say that (“it’s all broken!”) as he saw the fx16 here at the autoshow.
(0)I decided to keep track after stating that it seems that nowadays, it is the exception that there is a day that I DON’T see someone run a red light. So far it’s right, the count is 0 for 3.
(0)Man, I don’t think it has been colder than usual, but I am noticing that jeans and a thin baselayer are feeling like not enough. I almost wish I had my heavy ECWCS polypro drawers right now… Must be old age kicking in.
(0)OK, sheesh, I ended up sacrificing the rear window defroster wire, it’s fairly thick, and has the appropriate spade connector on the end even! And with the tint job, I don’t think you can use it anyway. Jump the solenoid direct to battery and it starts right up, sounds familiar.
Then on way home, the charge & brake warning lamp starts coming on, crap, this alternator is craping out too! At last traffic light by library, of course I catch the red. Uh oh, the dash lights are dimming. Turn off headlights, hurry! Go faster Camry, why the heck are you doing speed limit?! Make it home, just barely. After dinner when I try to start, it tries but not enough juice. Measure the Diehard Platinum & it’s down to 10v, yikes! Slapped the charger right now!
Great, I’m stuck at petland kahala right now, the rally FX won’t start. Clicky of a relay, but no starter, how familiar. I wasn’t expecting this FX to do this too so I don’t have the hot-wire jumper wire or clutch safety bypassed. Curses, I could try push start in this little parking lot I suppose….
(0)Aboard equipment JA8089 747-400. Probably the last time I’ll be on one of these after JAL retires this one in March.
(0)Ahhh! Air conditioning is your friend. Have to enjoy it, since plane will probably be hot until after takeoff. Lots of gaijin, mostly military – including one O-type who is talking really loud on his unencrypted Blackberry about some sensitive stuff that probably doesn’t need to be public knowledge.
