@motosubatsu You still have brakes, but you loose the vacuum assist after 2-3 presses of the pedal. Less if you have a failing brake booster. Not something I would ever attempt. Too much risk of something going wrong. Better to just leave it in gear and give it the small amount of throttle possible to maintain speed. Keeping it in gear adds engine braking (very important on a long slope).

@alephzero This is true in the US also. The only exception I am aware of is if the driver in front does a brake check in an attempt to cause an accident.

Agree. USA here. I understand it can be nerve racking to have someone following very closely, but the appropriate action is to maintain your speed / driving style. Do not feel pressured. You are not in the wrong or being rude. They are.

even without a wideband, you can determine the approximate a/f from the oxygen sensor voltage. It isn't as accurate, but it will give you an idea of where your at. Another thought - fuel pressure under boost?

sounds very similar to my job description

someone's got to do it. otherwise, how do you know your getting all you paid for?

what do you do?

thats pretty crazy

so only 3 are actually being used at the moment?

how many systems are running those 9?

having a hard time thinking of any single key that should control an action on a webpage, aside from enter for submit

I've had that happen, seems like a bad key to use for an action

I belive so, lambda might be wideband

Had an 89 blazer with giant holes in the floor. Started welding in whatever metal I could find. I was scrapping a bunch of computers for work, so I took the cases, cut them up and welded them in.

@Moab it got a stuck vaLve a couple years ago. did a top end rebuild. found a set of fresh rebuilt heads for $250!

@Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 yep

mostly stock.

350

overall, not bad for 46 years old

@Moab my 70 c20 has a chrome bumper, kinda waering off though.

@Darth_Vader i generally avoid adding anything chrome to the exterior, but my cars are lucky to get a wash once a year

@Darth_Vader might they be so you dont get door dings in the parking lot?

thats spring. people working instead of posting

@DucatiKiller is it a good dream?

@DucatiKiller hey. whats up?

I wonder if that would be slightly more acceptable in someplace like arizona where it gets up to like 110+ regularly

thats only during the very peak of summer

I've dealt with temperatures that hot working in garages and warehouses, but not in an office. thats insane.

tapcon a 2x4 to the floor

I have to write documentation sometimes. some organization makes all the difference in making it readable

yes, formatting is very important

kinda just brain dumped there

thanks

Hey, whats up. should have a couple minutes to kill here and see what this place is all about
