Hey Steve! Can you tell me the proper procedure for doing an evap test on a 1994 bronco. When they tested mine they clamped the system under the hood but didn't clamp the rear vent from the tank. Shouldn't it be a closed system for testing or am I missing something?

Sorry, I never saw this. It's probably too late but they are blocking the charcoal canister so they can pressurize the tank/evap system... standard smog test stuff.

I don't know about you guys, but I pretty much never take the ball mount of my truck... yeah, I'm one of those guys. It's virtually a permanent fixture 'cause I never know when I'm going to want to tow something and if I take it out, I'm just going to leave it behind and forget it when I need it most....

It's been many years since I've ran into it. I learned that lesson and steering clear of it is second nature. Well, last night as I walked out to the car in complete darkness was a refresher course! As one of my customers is fond of saying in his old man voice, "Holy F&#@%NG $#%T!" Son of a bitch did I plow into that thing! I now sport a large bald spot on my shin where it peeled the hair off through my pants and a real nice skinless portion to go with it. It now hurts to put on or take my pants off... here's to refresher courses!

HATE when I do that. It's not often as I remember for a LONG time after I do it, but every now & again I get that stupid refresher course too

I was in a hurry out at a BITD race a couple years ago and while quickly walking around back of the chase truck (White F250 crew superduty, like everyone out there).. I hit it hard enough for everyone in the truck to ask me if I was ok when I got in. My response (stupid = tough) was "Yeah, I'm fine" but I was crying inside. It hurt like a sombitch.

It's been a little toasty lately but the evenings have been incredible here. A child run and Coke, dinner in the backyard as sun sets and all is well in the world.

just came in from a crappy, highly unproductive lunch where I was reminded how heavy deavers actually are, and how much of a PItA they can be to try & put in a truck by yourself.

So I'm sweating like I just got out of a sauna, and have finally stopped cursing when I get to my desk to mellow out with a little GFB. I saw the PERFECT post. RMC Robert linked this & turned my whole afternoon around!

I just had to share in hopes more people would see it that it might turn their day around too!

Road side fix for my petcock blowing itself out. Tanks to a good buddy and his mom ofcourse for opening a new bottle of whine just so I could have the cork. I got the bronco home under its own power!

So I found these little metal bins at Costco and was thinking about buying them for the kitchen. Wanted to make sure they'd fit so I snapped a quick pic of the dims on the label & just went to verify when I noticed the dims. How the hell do you get 4/7"s??????

You get 4/7 when you designed it in mm

Rmc · Post by **Rmc** » Wed Sep 03, 2014 12:50 pm

Is 4/7ths even a real fractional number? I suppose the label maker assumes no one understands the decimal system. Talk about over complicating it.

not in our measuring system & that was kind of my point. I don't know how one could come up with a number like that aside from designing in metric & then using a conversion program to come up with the empirical equivalent. At which point it should give you something real or useful though should it not... I would assume it's safe to round to the nearest 1/16" or even 1/32" if you're going to be nit picky.

For something like this though & the skill set of Joe Public out there today & measuring they could probably get away with rounding to the nearest 1/4" and be fine!
