  I pulled the TB off the first time but subsequent cleanings have been in situ.  I've read that the battery disconnect issue with these is the drive-by-wire throttle.  If you move the butterfly manually with the power on, it screws up the calibration for the two position sensors and there's some gyrations necessary to re-calibrate them.    On the wife's van I learned that when you disconnect the battery, you must also pull the horn relay.  Reconnecting the battery sets off the alarm.  You'd be amazed at how difficult reconnected the battery cable is with the horn blaring in your ear 6" away.   :rofl:   Isn't there something that comes up here from time to time regarding loss of fine motor skills when under duress?  :ugh:

    All dogs have that switch.  The larger and more powerful the dog, the great the inherent danger.  When the whites of their eyes turn red, it's game on.    I've seen way more chihuahua's snap and go completely nuts for no apparent reason than I have pits.  In fact, I've never personally seen a pit snap.  But chihuahua's don't kill people when they do snap.  My wife wants a pit, she thinks they're wonderful.  My opinion is absolutely not.  No pure breeds, no mixes, no nothing even resembling one.  I refuse to live with the stigma and more importantly in today's litigious society, I refuse to accept the liability.  I love dogs and have had them all my life in spite of allergies.  But at the end of the day, it's just a dog. 

The Knoxville Ice Bears play at the civic coliseum, which I think is posted but you don't typically get searched.

Given how many problems there are with crud in GM throttle bodies it would appear the coating doesn't do much anyway. I've cleaned mine with carb cleaner and a toothbrush several times. Just be sure to disconnect the battery before you do it.

Interesting indeed.

They're excellent rifles, I really like mine.  Thankfully GP11 is still readily available and not horrendously expensive.    Did you get any accessories?  Sling, muzzle cap, etc.

I was a band geek for a few years.  I've had drinks, ice, cups, and various other trash thrown at me (or in my general direction anyway).  I've heard language that would make Gunnery Sergeant Hartman proud.  There's always more than a few complete and total assholes in every stadium.  They know they'll get in trouble if they do that to the players, but the band?  No one cares about the band.

  Creaks, groans, clunks, and rattles are typically how you discover worn out ball joints and such.  If it won't hold an alignment, the ball joints are probably toast.  Sounds like you're good. 

  It'll fall over if you stop.   :)       This is a bit of a drive, but probably worth it.  http://www.offroad-training.org/DBS-Front-Page.html   Here's another option closer to home: http://trialstrainingcenter.com/schedule/trials-training-days/     I've found this book to be pretty helpful.  http://www.amazon.com/How-Ride-Off-Road-Motorcycles-Dual-Sport/dp/0760342733

Welcome!

Welcome!

Agreed. This is the only way I'd consider it.

In that case, hmmmm.... Are there any other wet/damp areas in the basement? Damp walls, puddles in the corners, water stains anywhere? Edit... Water is condensing on that ceiling area because it's the coldest surface. What's between the ceiling and the porch above? Is it open or could it be sealed off somehow to keep the cold outside air away from it?

All that moisture is getting in there somehow, figuring out how is the hard part. If there's enough moisture for it to condensate, there's too much for it to be a viable long term storage area. Id guess the moisture is coming from the unfinished part of the basement. Any way to seal that off?

I ride an XT225 and it's a fun little bike. For single track type stuff I'd be most aware of the weight. 450's are great right up until you have to drag it over/under a down tree or out of a ditch. I wear a small pack to carry my lunch and a hydration bladder. I don't like much weight in it and I sure wouldn't want to fall on something hard. Speaking of that, be sure to leave plenty of room in the budget for good gear. Real off road boots seem to be the most common thing people skimp on, they make a world of different both in comfort and in protection.

I would assume the will and/or the lawyers are requiring the sale. The only way to divide it up evenly is to sell it. I'd hope the family got to pic a few first. If not, I'd say family who wants specific guns will have to buy them at the auction.

Got pics? I'm having a hard time picturing this.

It was stated earlier that is was an M&P Shield.

I've entered several times but never won or heard of anyone who did. I assume someone wins.

Rick McGills low balled me big time on a trade as well. The vehicle I wanted was at a fair price and they offered me $1500 for a $6000 car. All I said was "really?" and got up to walk out. He talked me back into his office and I told him all I wanted was a fair deal, his offer was insulting and it's gonna cost him $1000. I would have taken $5000 for that car but now it's $6000 and not a penny less. I got my $6000.

You likely won't find a decent one for under $10k. The used car market is crazy and trucks are the worst.

Be strong man, you're just getting warmed up. Seriously, I talked with a national match shooter a while back. He decided not to clean his match AR for an entire year. More than 1000 rds down the pipe, no malfunctions, no loss of accuracy.

I wish we did have condors. Those things are gigantic!

Btw... If the front diff starts leaking, replace the seal and get rid of it.

We have both black vultures and turkey vultures here. http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Black_Vulture/id http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Turkey_Vulture/id
