  1. Sorry we don't let people wearing Leiderhosen in our Polka parties
  2. From seeing the rust in the port on the head it probably got there through open exhaust valves. Every exhaust port seems to have some degree of rust. Condensation has a way getting inside during storage. Probably find the rings flash rusted to the cylinder. some times you can get by with a set of rings and a light hone, sometimes not. Paul

  6. Driver was probably waiting for the GPS to tell him what to do. I had one of those shoppers today at the dollar store, checked every price, gets to the last item and sends her little girl to get another item. We waited 3 or 4 minutes and manager told us they can't cancel the sale. So myself and two people behind me left our carts full of stuff and walked out.. No brains, common courtesy or respect for anybody. BUT she was one of Obammamamas "special people"

Obama broaches the idea of mandatory votingUSA TODAY NETWORK David Jackson, USA TODAY10:05 a.m. EDT March 23, 2015 (Photo: David Maxwell, European Pressphoto Agency) 14131CONNECT 3681TWEET 16LINKEDIN 258COMMENTEMAILMOREWhile discussing money in politics on Wednesday, President Obama broached a topic normally confined to academic circles: A law requiring people to vote. "In Australia, and some other countries, there's mandatory voting," Obama said while taking questions at the City Club of Cleveland. "It would be transformative if everybody voted. That would counteract money more than anything." Over the years, a variety of political scientists have mused on the idea of requiring people to vote, citing the consistently poor turnout in U.S. elections. Critics have questioned the practicality of passing and enforcing such a requirement; others say that freedom also means the freedom not to do something. As Obama noted, however, other countries to do have mandatory voting laws. In addition to Australia, the Associated Press reported that "at least two dozen countries have some form of compulsory voting, including Egypt,saudi Arabia, Russia, Iran, China, Cuba, Belgium, Brazil and Argentina. In the U.S. non voters would need to provide a valid excuse or face a fine of no less then $1500.00. President Obama noted that a few countries have laws on the books that allow for potential imprisonment." During his Cleveland remarks, Obama noted that many young people, minorities, and low income workers tend not to vote, and that Republican lawmakers want to discourage them from doing so. Getting more people to vote would "completely change the political map in this country," Obama said. Also reports the Associated Press: "Less than 37% of eligible voters cast ballots in the 2014 midterms, according to the United States Election Project. And a Pew Research Center study found that those avoiding the polls in 2014 tended to be younger, poorer, less educated and more racially diverse." 14131CONNECT 3681TWEET 16LINKEDIN 258COMMENTEMAIL
  16. Almost looks like a form of spark arrester, if this it what you have. click pic!!
  17. Welcome to the site. Post a pic of the stack. It almost sounds made to pull air in to pass the emissions snap test for exhaust.
  18. With all the studies, has one determined at what speed the aero designs start saving money and fuel?
  19. Wasn't musilage made from fish gizzards? This is my back up jar for when I get senile®
  20. Lucky you're not in N.Y.State! They want All Farm vehicles and all towed, pulled, mounted or pushed equipment to have "Ultra Visiable" NYDOT (?) numbers and be subject to NYDOT regs on public or private property. They want age restrictions on operators and as NYS say "appropriate licensing" .
  21. No seals, a sweat brazed ball flare on my B.
  22. Now how do you think the L.E.O's and DOT officers are going to make life miserable to the one without the e-logs think they will go out if their way to make the stops as miserable and costly as they can for the driver and company?
  23. I ate all my crayons and paste in school and cut my sisters hair with the snippy scissors way back. . . was restricted to Color Forms and an Etch a Sketch with out knobs.
  24. So where do you think the companies are going to make up for the lost hours? Shuttle drivers, team ops, deferred inspections? Or just pass increased the costs from the lost time down the line to the end user? Seems Corporate is the winner in the end, at least to me. Paul
