  1. But !. To buy one. Even if you don't need a second one is a waste , if you dicard that freebie to the rubbish bin . spacesailor
  2. Or, an " air-cooled " two-stroke. I once parked behinda VW beatle ( air-cooled )at a ' ski resort ' and was roundly told-off, " your block will freeze & crack at this hight, with it's very low temperatures " . So I had to drive a mile back down the mountain to the ( common man's ) carport . No problems with ' water in the sump ' or ' Freeze cracked block ' . spacesailor
  3. A couple pictures of a lightened Hummbird D former . For Geoff . 4 With apologies for late offering . ( put aside then lost ) . spacesailor
  4. They do fit a 12 point socket ! . spacesailor
  5. All IC motors create h2o ! . When cold the piston will not have expanded to seal the bore . That's the big problem of short trips . Then that steam vapour condenses onto the still cold metal And also onto the cold oil . Then that condensate sinks to the bottom & stays out of the heat . Awaiting the return trip to add a little more. my oil is nice & clear , so no worries . spacesailor PS. : A smaller motor , than my 4lt V6 , Would help to warm-up as less cold metal ' mass. ' to heat .
  6. I must check those ' revs ' , as they were only a guesstimate . But the car will stay " all alone " , locked up , in the garage , the battery looses a little bit daily by it's ' alarm system ' and all the electrical gadgets. It's one reason to go ' electric ' .no warming up , & getting a sump half-full of water . I didn't think that I had ' overfilled ' the sump after the last oilchange !, But the oil level is above the full mark now . spacesailor
  7. Use a doll . A barbie doll will confuse them . And they're cheap as chips at " op-shops " . spacesailor
  8. Check the angle of his hips !. I couldn't manage the slider as there wasn't any leg strength to push the foot forward . Also I did enjoy the attention. LoL Nice new hip ! , so no attention. spacesailor
  9. Welcome to my world . It's getting faster as I'm getting older . It takes twice as long to get my socks on , or walk a couple K's. Than it did , before you were born . LoL spacesailor
  10. it's, still an insurance scam here in Australia. NRMA has a higher policy price for pensioners !, Because Pensioners don't pay full registration cost . spacesailor
  11. BUt at 3,000 revs it won't get the high 'amps' . Or the 12 minutes trip doesn't charge much either. I'm not rural, but relegated to that mandatory 50 k maximum speed . PLUS those five red traffic-light's . Oh , I do miss that ' open road " to anywhere. spacesailor PS. : Karumba is calling
  12. Someone , in far north Queensland, tried to make his own 'mega-dam ' . Lost heaps of money to the humongous fines for not doing things to suit the environmentally sudo politicians. Even to clear ' swamp land ' & stop the mozzie plague for the towns folk . Cost one guy $ millions in fines . But it's great staying there now , plus the marina is good too , that he made . spacesailor
  13. They do. But at higher revs you get heaps more amps . I haven't had a long drive for along time . It means. More oil changes , because the oil ' on the dipstick ' is getting more each month . Not less, ( water adding to the sump reach shopping trip ) . spacesailor
  14. Not true. I drive my " tiptronic " automatic Pajero like a manual ! . Why ?, short occasional runs leaves the battery a little less charged each time , changing to lower-gear gives a little more charge . so smarty uses the gears to slow-down , to navigate roundabouts . & Roll to the stop-light , without using those nice new brake ' shoes ' & Disk-pads I replaced this year . spacesailor
  15. I have the chance of a 2015 Tesla 85 Sd , one owner with high ks 210,00 , ( Newcastle to Sydney commute ) . Immaculate condition. Every one around me say no . Too old at ten years , & the battery could fail in a few years. No way could I afford a newer " up- market " electric car . So, I leave the money for the " kids inheritance " . I'd rather buy a nice last car . spacesailor
  16. pterodactyl . Pterosaurs . Are not a dinosaurs . ae they don't have the same perforated acetabulum . spacesailor

    There's a lot of ' littlies' into soccer. Are the schools pushing it !, as less long term trauma, spacesailor -
  18. I'm going to look at a 2015 Tesla S 85d . Alwheel drive , with " don't run over the peasants " technology. At my age I need all the help I can get . Ten years old . And free " supercharge " on this model. ( not on yours of course ) . Just looking at my 1st pev . It's hard to find were the supercharge stations are , as most seem to be in the CBD . My grandaughter bought a new MG hybrid & seems happy with it ! . But the rest of the family are against me , having another car , even though I drive The 4 Lt pajero . spacesailor
  19. I would say ! . it's the " Bin chicken " the Ibis . spacesailor
  20. Well !. None of the guns, I, and my reloes had , killed any innocent people . They were deemed illegal , & had to be surrendered. I never let a rabbit suffer when I caught them . Th traps are deemed illegal. My fire extinguisher have never been Used . But Is deemed illegal. My ' machete ' has only cut-dowm 6 or 7 banana tree's . & yet Is deemed illegal. none were illegal when purchased. It's to. Make you. Buy more junk . spacesailor
  21. I bought one & use it for chopping ' banana trees' down , best tool for that job . Like the ' rabbit trap ' it hangs in the garden shed . Even even my old ' fire extinguisher is illegal. & don't. Look at my old ' fire blanket ' it will frighten you . ( real asbestos ) . So it works great . What's next to be outlawed . Petrol engines ! . ( very dangerous & burns down tobacconist shops. ). spacesailor
  22. What ever happened to ' phoebe's ' ,bonus four more than he . spacesailor
  23. 6 spacesailor
  24. HE .! Admitted, he murdered a civilian. But as he was not B R S . HE IS INNOCENT . Does not compute . in my life . spacesailor
  25. That's my point . Freedom for one murderer . and not for the next . Our justice scales are in need of a yearly calibration. spacesailor
