    Troubleshoot our troubleshooting please!

    Hey Kevin, I'm by no means an engine diagnostics expert, but. You were looking for 12v between what two points? The points in the distributor are generally making and breaking a ground. If the points were stuck closed, they would hold the voltage across them low

    Any boat guru's on here? Looking to buy advice/suggestions needed

    All I'd add is that I really liked the 150HP Yamaha 4-stroke that I had. Started first time every time, regardless of the temp, and was very quiet. We could hold a conversation with barely raised voices with the outboard at WOT. Oh, and get the family/friends on kneeboard/wakeboard/skis asap...

    Kevin's 2008 JKU Rubicon

    How do the sliders mount? I'm thinking about adding an extra bar to mine but I am concerned about the somewhat flimsy mounting of the stock Rubi sliders. The other mod I've done that was dirt cheap and had the most dramatic effect... I painted the top of the roof white. Just the top, so from...

    Been there done that lost all the money. Rent one when when you want to for a couple years. If after that you can really run the numbers and claim you would save money, then buy.

    good, cheap sunglasses... do they exist?

    The best lenses I've ever seen were in a pair of maui Jim Typhoons (amber, polarized, and Leica-Quality glass optics) , but at $300 a pair, not for me..

    Need a 4x6 Trailer Built

    With that timeframe, tacoman has the best solution (ok, even without the timeframe its the best, but where is the fun in buying it?)

    Pony Express Trail August 10-12

    Self-injected epinephrin to prevent Anaphylactic shock when an alergic person is stung by a wasp or bee. And Steve.. you need to let the people you wheel with about that, just in case.

    Camping Sucks!

    I was going down a hill in about an inch of snow so quick turns were out of the question. My options were stay straight and run over it, or lay the bike down and probably stop with my face a foot from it's back end. I chose the former.

    help me decide which camera to buy

    Yeah, had it backwards, no EF-S lenses on cameras made for full frame lenses unless specifically designed for both. Now I have to go check whether my 60D can take EF-S lenses...

    help me decide which camera to buy

    Steve, The crop factor NoTrax is talking about is due to the size of the sensor. the 70-200 lens was designed for 24x36 mm(or there abouts) film (35mm). The sensor on our cameras is 25x16mm so it only "sees" the center area of the image from the lens. The ratio of the two is 1.6, so a 200mm...

    Camping Sucks!

    Just got back from Yellowstone a couple weeks ago. They were having issues with grizzlies in the campground. All dishes (dirty or clean), coolers, grills, food, toiletries, even water bottles, basically everything had to be closed up in a hard-sided vehicle at all times except while in...
