  1. take the cover off and fire it up for a sec. you'll see it spinning and if it looks like it's wobbling then kill it and take it out on their ass. if it's super straight, which it should be then your fine. if it appears to wobble kill it pretty quickly, that could put some nast havoc on your bearings and shit.

    only if she doesn't want to try... if you catch my drift...
  3. They do, its called fuel injection. The carb can't presuized the fuel in the bowl or it would just run into/flood the cylinder with fuel without the motor even running. That's why the floats in the bowl shut off the flow of fuel into the bowl when it is full. You can put an inline fuel pump in front of a carb but it is only to fill the bowl with fuel faster. Fuel siting in the carb bowl is drawn into the carb by the air passing over the pilot and main jet via the venturi effect. The needle is not a jet, it is a means of limiting the fuel that can flow through the main jet when the throttle is from 0 to 3/4 open. That is why it is part of the jetting circut, but it is not a jet that flows fuel.
  4. yeah and in an army suit to boot, i kinda like those dark green tees...
  5. We had contacted the bank upon realization that the book was missing to verify if any checks had cleared from that book. When indeed there were some cleared checks, we told them to fax copies of them and they did. We knew right then that they were forged and told the bank this. They instructed us to do certain things. They wanted us to keep the account open but move all the money into another account. They said they would continue to pay any checks coming through this account and discuss each transaction with us. If it was valid, they'd pull the money from our other account, if it was invalid, they'd pay (to keep our name clean) and put in the "report" list. This way, we know exactly what is fraudulent and it won't affect our name at all. My wife has already filed a police report. From there, the bank will get the case number and then report all the fraudulent checks to the coppers and then the businesses the checks were written at. The way it will work is, we will be filing charges against her (can't remember the actual charges) but they're not too serious. Then, once the bank contacts the businesses, they'll have all the business file charges for fraud, check forgery and shit, and they'll bury her ass. The bank says this is the best way to proceed, this way our name doesn't get accidentally fucked with bad checks and our credit doesn't get touched. We, our company and us, do A LOT of business with our bank so we get some "fringe benefits" that most people won't get. The manager of the bank was brought into this and will be handling the entire deal. Seh called my wife about an hour ago to talk to her about the amount and my wife told her we have "taken care of it". She didn't understand, so we explained that our friendly neighbor had called us to inform us as to what she had said and how she had acted. Of course, she said that she didn't ever say that, but I don't know why my neighbor would just completely make it up. Needless to say, my wife just hung up on her. Her husband/boyfriend is brother's with the son-in-law of the main man that works for me (all the mexicans are related somehow) and according to him, her husband has left her. So, her life just took an about-face rather quickly, all because of some stupid decisions. Oh well, not my problem. Jen: where we riding this weekend?
  6. Wife comes home and looks for a new book of checks. Notices the 1400 - 1449 book is missing. Calls the bank up and sure enough 4 or 5 in that book have cleared. She calls me to ask if I took it. Nope! I don't use checks, never have never will. Debit cards and ATMs have done away with checks in my mind. No one is ever in our home, we never have people coming up during the day or anything. However, the only person who is ever there is our babysitter. She is there everyday from 9am to 3pm. Hmmm, now our babysitter wouldn't be stealing checks and fraudulently writing them out would she. Well, there is no other person in the house ever. She is 23 and 7 months pregnant. Yesterday evening, my wife tracks her phone number down (the one we had had been changed) and asks here. At first, she denied it. Then after my wife said she compared the handwriting on the copys of the cleared checks we have to a note our she had written, that it looks pretty damn close. She started to cry and admitted to it. We told her she has until Monday to pay us back or we will be calling the authorities. She agreed. Her husband/boyfried works at our close neighbors ranch. We called them up and told them about it and they said if they could help they would and offered to hold one of their checks, but legally they can't do that but they would do whatever they could. This morning, she called and said she would figure out a way to take care of it. She was going to go next door to get her hubby/boyfriends check and cash it and bring us the money. We said fine. She said her hubby/boyfriend is leaving her over this and she doesn't know what she's going to do. I told her, "big fucking whoop, grow up like the rest of us do". Well, my neighbor just called to say that she showed up and said that she did not write those checks and that she will take a "handwriting analysis" and she has a lawyer and blah blah blah. So, needless to say, my wife is now in the process of contacting the Five-O. She had written four or five checks totalling over $500 so far, and we're not sure if there's more out there or not. Of course, she said she threw away the check book, but who knows. The last copy we have is from 7/21, and that's not too long ago so there shouldn't be too many more. Worst thing about it is, the one who suffers the most is my 2 year old. He was asking for her this morning, like he does every morning. How fucking rotten are you to steal money from the family of the 2 year old your watching. She's lucky I didn't kick her right in the fucking face.
  7. for some reason, I like the idea of both of those....
  8. now now girls and boys, if we can't play nice... At this moment, there is only one thing that I'm not going to be able to do with the mac OS, and that's run my Microsoft Visio. If no one has ever used that, then your missing out. You can design "stencils" to use as drag-and-drop items in a larger drawing. For instance, if I'm drawing an equine facility, I have wall lengths and barn items already drawn that fit my type of construction. Instead of drawing them repeatedly, I just drag and drop them into place, so my drawing is already done, I just have to fit the pieces together in the way the customer wants. I have over 250 individual items loaded, that I've personally drawn and put in my stencil folder. I honestly don't think I could do my job without it. I imagine there are other programs that are similar, but I have so much time invested in the putting together the stencils that I shudder to think about doing it again with another program. Anyway, I'll be setting up with some Adobe stuff that I can do a lot with and I've got my eyes on a couple of different drawing programs for Mac. One that comes to mind is MacDraw, so if anyone has any experiences with that one, I'd love to hear. Brooke, did yours come with a Quickbooks version loaded? It mentioned some Quickbooks stuff on the Apple site but I couldn't find out if it was loaded or not. That is another program I have to have to live well. If I remember what the apple guy said, they've installed a "right-click" option in the Mac OS X Panther, but I may be wrong. Nonetheless, I'm pretty excited about the new setup, I think I'm gonna kick myself for not doing this sooner. Just pulled up the order status. SHIPPED!! Bye all, remember to play nice and all, no !!

    damn tats. i'm there if you need me bro!
  10. You need a flywheel puller. Under $10.00, probably like $8 and it's good to have one on hand anyway in case you need to get in there. Takes thirty seconds to get off with a puller. What you could do is put the shee in your truck and go to the dealer then ask if you could borrow theres for like one minute if you just don't want to buy one. I don't recommend trying it any other way. Very safe mod for any type of riding. Won't hurt anything and lets the r's come up quickly and shut down quickly. Great for tight trees where you can shut down quick and be back in the r's quick.
  11. Just an update: My computer completely went south today. This morning, it was still starting up and functioning some and it got worse and worse. Around lunch, I decided to run CheckDisk. It went through and said there were some errors, index errors or something, so I tried to rerun with the "/F" to fix the errors. I had to restart, and never got the SOB to restart. It would lock up halfway through starting up. I did get into Safe Mode once. I resetup the CheckDisk to fix and had to restart. Mofo would not startup again. I put in my floppy to boot up with and got the A prompt, couldn't get it to go to the C drive. After about thirty minutes of dicking around with that, the screen started turning colors and it quit responding. The prompt would not respond to my typing or anything and this was with the A: prompt. I'm now thinking the heat f'ed up the MoBo completely. That's the only reason I could think that it wouldn't respond having started up with the floppy, there shouldn't be anything else being used at that time, correct? So, I'll be calling Walt here shortly to discuss with him. Couldn't find a mofo MoBo on Ebay like I hoped I could. Oh well, all should be good come early next week.
  12. Got the 2-3 day cause I'm an impatient bastard. I want shit like NOW! Yeah, I've got a lot of "getting used to" I imagine. You've been on that setup for awhile, I'm gonna have to get used to not have a "Start" menu and all. I'm still not sure whether it was the right way to go or not, but I'm sure it'll be all good when it's here and I'm finally on it. It just needs to hurry the hell up. Dammit where is that thing.
  13. ok ok, i've put "quark" and "graphic arts" together, and now i'm intrigued. more info please???
  14. zerk thank you for checking my spelling no problem.
  15. Run it straight, it says it right on the bottle. "Ready to use".
  16. Yeah, I was going to get involved on this one, but I think I'll bow out on that one.
  17. The BansheeHQ Jetting FAQ is a good place. Get a baseline figure (not from me, my knowledge does not extend to cheetahs and 34 mikunis). Then get your main dialed in first, using a WOT run in 5th or 6th gear. Once and only once your main is set, then get your needle somewhere you like. Then, dial in the pilot for good idle and response. After adjusting the idle, you may or may not have to tweak the needle again. Later.
