  1. "Been there, done that." My cap gave out and the engine would overheat while idling. It would cool off if moving (air flowing through radiator). The fans could not move enough air in 100* days to cool the motor. Replace the cap first. Get Volvo cap. Easiest to fix/replace and least expensive. Once you've done that, drive it around for a few minute to get it up to temp. Then park it in the driveway and leave it running. Watch the temp and look for leaks/overflow. If that fixes the overheating, you are good to go. If not, then move down the list: t-stat, radiator, etc.

    Beer

    Stouts and Porter taste best when the temps are in the 50s F (10 C). The flavor of the grain and hops really comes through. At cellar temps, your mouth and taste buds are not frozen by 35 F (2 C) beer. However, not all beers should be consumed that warm. German lagers are great cold.
  3. did the owner indicate/hint it was for sale?
  4. You going to loan that out? Or take in cruise control units to test?
  5. You get a 5% royalty for every dollar I collect. 5% * $0 = $0

    Beer

    I was at Flying Dog earlier this month. The home brew club I belong to has a meeting there once a year. They're really nice people there and appreciate the home brew community. Most of the people there were/are home brewers.

    Beer

    I have a MoreBeer three tier brew system. I can make 10 gallons at a time (that's about 4.5 cases of 12 oz. bottles). I don't have current pictures. I brew all grain, just like the big boys of beer. I started brewing in 93 when my wife bought me a home brew kit using liquid malt extract (LME). I have tried brewing many different styles through the years, from stouts/porter, IPAs, Belgians, German lagers. I like most styles of beer (except sours, fruit, and gose). I have been brewing lagers a lot recently: pilsners, bocks and double bocks. It is a fun hobby.

    Beer

    I only have 5 beers in the refrigerator. I brew the beer I drink.
  9. Canadian, ay. Couldn't he just strap a beer cooler to the back of his Vespa?
  10. No one else has mentioned it, so I will. The grill is upside down. Please flip it over. (I'm done. Thank you.)
  11. Thanks, Fiat. I wanted the 87 electric in pdf. Now I have it.
  12. “Man, that engine has some great off-roading ability. What transmission have you got in it.....Oh. Never mind. “
  13. I wonder if the house has Ring. I'd love to see that video.
  14. "The other night I came home late, and tried to unlock my house with my car keys. I started the house up. So, I drove it around for a while. I was speeding, and a cop pulled me over. He asked where I lived. I said, "right here, officer". Later, I parked it on the freeway, got out, and yelled at all the cars, "Get out of my driveway!" " Steven Wright
  15. I have an MT2500 plus LOTS of cartridges and manuals. Thank you, though.
  16. Like the title says, does anyone have the Jeep troubleshooting cartridge that you are willing to part with? I have a box of manual and cartridges for Asian, domestic and Euro models for the MT2500 if willing to trade. I may have an extra Jeep primary cartridge in the box, also.
  17. The shorts and the socks!!! Man that takes me back to the good old days. I was the EXACT demographics of the targeted market. I probably had those shorts and socks. (I'll have to check, but I may still have a pair shorts in a drawer.)
  18. I had one similar to that. It was mounted on the passenger side.
  19. Rockauto.com Someone has posted a discount code to save up to 5% on purchases.
  20. How did I know that was a Walmart parking lot.
  21. Yeah, to each his own. When I see those MJs I just move on. I don't comment on it.

    My wife uses it. I will ask her about it.
  23. Besides the one in my driveway, I've seen about three or four around me (Frederick MD).
  24. Get a test light and a DVOM. Turn the key on. Put the trans in reverse. With DVOM, check the Ohm reading of the switch. If reading is 0 (zero) the switch is good. Proceed to the next step. If switch is bad, replace the switch. Go to the rear wiring harness. Unplug the rear light connector. Using the test light, probe the source side connector to test for power on the BRN/WHT wire. If you have power back there, look at the light bulbs and sockets. If there is no power getting to the rear, start following the wires back looking for breaks in the harness.
