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

[Ldub]

Ok, so i get dragged into this mess.
so heres my 2 cents.
do the crossover thingy it should work. i don't know why, cuz im no good at maths, but it will look cool, and that's all that matters! oh and you should make it in purple so Kat has a new part for when she someday gets a new VX.
and the burning was a false alarm. i just needed to hydrate. i knew it couldn't be one of them sexy diseases, cuz im still an innocent

bahaha that actually made me lol. good work Justin.

Fun thread but ya'll have been feeding the troll a little too long he went around like 5 times. Anyone ever gets banned 'round here?
On the subject - I once forgot to out back the oil cap after filling up, drove half way to a ski resort to find smoke from under the hood at a gas station. Actually didn't notice it until I saw two dudes looking at my VX with horrified expressions on their faces. I usually see curiosity, confusion etc.on peoples' faces, but never horror. Anyways went back home and found oil cap two block down from where I stated - it was sitting on the battery while I was refilling and fell off after all. Only greased up half of the engine compartment.
Where do I get my club card?

there really should be a sarcasm font, because i cant tell if your serious or not. are you the mysterious Trekk supporter, aka Unicorn everyone has heard of?

its not purple!

Gotta say, I'm a bit freaked...mushrooms not withstanding, or some such other disclaimer.....harUMPH. But for tha love of FLYING GODDAMN SPAGETTI MONSTERS....here are a number of non site supporters, who are comfortable enough in their own junk, to add kiln to tha fire...any you guys feel intimidated???...I thought not...

To treckicky & tha toadie...we already know that YOU TWO are actually the ones who "get it"...to those who truly get it, go the spoils, & to you I give tha maximum of kudos & congratulatory remunerations which are worthy of more value than you can possibly perceive...

Funny that the thought of online intimidation would be brought up by you of all people.

Seems proof that despite repeated suggestions, you've STILL not looked up that psychological definition of "projection".

What???

No comment about my apparant success???

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.)

You can't claim that your project was a success when the project you're now referencing wasn't even the same project you started out talking about...unless of course you believe everyone has THAT short of an attention span...which is somewhat insulting to say the least in my opinion.

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

Ya know, the saddest part of your comment above TREK is that Tom's comment in post #194 was a JOKE....a funny.....a moment of levity to make the reader smile or chuckle. .....but ....hmmm, what's that phrase YOU so often use ...."you didn't get it".

If you did "get it", then there's no need to go off into the detailed, all serious attitude, nit-picking on the technicalities of the oil/catch can/bypass/crossover thingy and who said what, or who said what FIRST over a year ago and made that mod to YOUR VX over a year ago. Wohoo, OK, you win, you're first TREK. Make ya feel better?


Meanwhile, Scott L, T4B, and myself, (and perhaps others here) are all ROFL at Tom's funny comment, and enjoying ourselves and our friendship here.
What's in your wallet?

[Y33TREKker]

Ya know, the saddest part of your comment...

That's one way to look at it Kat, and it's entirely understandable why YOU would choose to view it that way given your past history of commenting in these threads.

I'm sorry that my logic escapes you.

[Y33TREKker]

I'm sorry that my logic escapes you.

You just keep telling yourself that Tom, since you don't even seem to understand that the only change you've made to your system that resulted in your recent results was the vent filter.

If you'd simply added your crossover tube, your current results might actually count towards proving your "logic", but facts are facts, that ISN'T what you did.

And I'm glad to hear that your oil consumption has supposedly decreased, just as glad as I'd be to hear that from ANYONE who owns a VX with the oil consumption problem, but it's obvious that your quest to prove that you're never wrong about anything (jokingly of course ) is obviously clouding the objectivity of your original project results...which logically...by your own admission...you haven't even completed yet.

Have you forgotten that I have the oil catch can on the left bank? That, with the vent on the right bank 'SHOULD' yield the same results as the crossover tube & the oil catch can. The only reason to push on with the crossover tube instead of stopping at the vent filter is for environmental reasons, not oil consumption. The only reason to stop at the vent filter rather than moving on to the crossover tube is the work involved. I'll have to drill a hole in my right valve cover somehow without introducing metal shavings into the oil. Mebbe I'll just re-use the modified oil cap.

... I described having made THAT very modification to MY VX over a year ago.)

So glad YOU invented that for us. How can we ever thank you enough. Too bad you didn't get a patent on it so you could've made a meeeeelion dollars off of your brainstorm.

You can't claim that your project was a success when the project you're now referencing wasn't even the same project you started out talking about...unless of course you believe everyone has THAT short of an attention span...which is somewhat insulting to say the least in my opinion.

Dude ... take credit where credit is due. You've been AR about the whole issue, so I came up with the idea for the incremental step. If you hadn't brow beaten me so bad about how stooopid I am, I prolly would've just gone out & punched a hole in my valve cover with a punch & mallet then duct taped a tube in place. Sarcasm aside: if you could've removed the blinders long enough to embrace the technical approach instead of deficating insults, you'd realize that there is potential in what I'm trying to do. "You fart with your mouth" (IIRC from the movie 'Little Big Man').

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

I have no response to that

I guess I owe you my thought process in claiming a partial success.

That mirror can be a real BITCH !

[Y33TREKker]

I was quoting you, f'tard...

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

Which also makes it funny that you've suggested multiple times in the past that I've tried to turn things around on you by simply repeating what you've said...only to turn around and do that very thing yourself just now by your own admission.

Time sure does have a way of revealing the truth about those kinds of things doesn't it...
