Haha, I had to go to Urban_Dictionary to see exactly what you meant by that - pretty funny! :thumbup: The only peeps to get banned are those pesky Jeep owners who try to sabotage the site. Otherwise, my guess is the Admin is tired of locking threads revolving around the same general folks - seriously, this grudge match has been going on for over 5 YEARS. It's one guy on a crusade against a clique, as best as I can see - he claims to have a mystery following whom choose not to speak however. I'm surprised this thread has not been locked by now as I've never seen it get this bad before. There have been some crossing-the-line comments from several. I imagine the Admin just wants to let them/us fight it out here so that it finally comes to a stop. Everyone should just do everyone a favor and add their perceived troll(s) to their ignore list in order to make this a happier forum... I believe it would take Trek a long time to complete that task.Quote:

If Trek wants to take credit for that he is welcome to it...

P.S. Thor sucks.
Now THAT was funny..A 710 cap indeed! :rotate: Budweiser through the nose hurts worse then Mt. Dew...Quote:

I believe ZEUS may be right, VXR has a limited vocabulary usually limited to an emoticon; that being, ":wtfb:". It's refreshing to see that he is expanding his social skills and coming out of his emotional shell...I'm starting to see great progress made in his and Trekks development! :thumbup:
The great irony is that they keep proving themselves to have the exact attitude and lack of understanding I've described with virtually every subsequent post that they make...while simultaneously suggesting that I'm the person who doesn't get it.Quote:

P.S. How's that crossover tube thingy comin' along Tom, is it up and runnin' sweetly? :_steering
Guilty as charged.....
I once left off the oil cap on my way to work....same result....oil sprayed under hood and all over with smoke being the first clue. What I was surprised about was that it was only down half a quart...kind of like when I was a kid and spilled a cup of OJ in Mom's kitchen and it managed to coat the whole kitchen. The laws of physics can be amazing!
What did ya think I was guilty of???? lol.
I figgerd you were quilty of exactly what started this whole thread in the first place dammit, fergettin' to put yer 710 cap back on...:slap: :rotate:
I'm still looking around for the parts I'll need. Mebbe this weekend or next.Quote:

I just put this together with a replacement oil cap, oil breather, and a screened grommet for a garden hose (total cost <$20).
I'll keep you posted on the oil consumption over the next few weeks.

BRILLIANT!!!
Looks great so far
its not purple!
ROFL ... I'm not KAT. Nobody can pull off Purple like KAT can!!!Quote:

The real question now is how long till you forget to put that giant cap back on...?

it was supposed to be purple so Kat will have a new part for when she gets new VX some day. im trying to think ahead. maybe that will be an option for when you mas produce the mirical oil consumption cure
ok, and i like purple too, it looks great with proton and skulls
I'll notice the 0.03% drop in throttle response as soon as I start driving ... so it won't be a problem.:)Quote:

Yah, I'm running this test on the 3.2L in my 99 Amigo. The Proton isn't using oil yet. AFAIK you can use the coil packs for either engine.Quote:

Weird
My weekly P0442 code hasn't appeared since adding the vent. I know ... totally unrelated issues but quite the coincidence (mebbe the cold weather sealed my gas cap mo' betta on this tank of go juice)!!!
BTW - sorry to un-jack the thread. Back to the regularly unscheduled ramblings:)

I'm hopefully optomistic.:yes:
If I may further jack this thread...:_confused (that's a trek trap...don't look)
May I ask what kind of mileage you're getting with that lil' Amigo?
22ish
But that's all grid iron
@ 145K, it's time for an in depth tune up which hopefully will squeek out another 1-2.
Funny that the thought of online intimidation would be brought up by you of all people.Quote:

Well then there's obviously another word you need to look up the definition for as it relates to a discussion between individuals...context.Quote:

Time sure does have a way of revealing the truth about those kinds of things doesn't it... ;)
What success? Your original idea was a crossover tube between BOTH valve covers, not a vent filter on ONE valve cover (which you incidentally referred to towards the very beginning when referencing a thread where I described having made THAT very modification to MY VX over a year ago.)Quote:

At least you apparently had Scott fooled though, although how much of a success can actually be claimed in that regard is debatable. ;)
