electrons through zener diodes? that's a one way trip. My trunk monkey prefers OA2s, but he is very old & set in his ways.

I thought the last year they built an elky was 72, you know, just like the last year for the corvette was 62. Man, I gotsto get more open minded.

Non-FE Discussion Forum / Re: Is There a Good Surge Protector Out There?
« on: September 09, 2015, 06:53:32 PM »
repaired electronics for 30 years & have seen it all. you must unplug. lightning is a freaky phenomenon. there is no rhyme or reason why it takes one thing out & not another plugged into the same outlet. there are whole house surge pro. that get wired into your main panel box. I would prob. go with that, but it all depends how close the hit is as to how effective they are. Most outlet strips are snake oil.

Member Projects / look what followed me home
« on: September 09, 2015, 01:56:05 PM »
I normally would'nt give this a second look but, I knew this car from new. one owner, 70k, 390 4 speed, bench seat, 350 rear. body is decent having never been out in the winter. the 390 was pulled to freshen gaskets back in 99 & never was put back together. I have it all. so what do I do with it? ebay it as is, put it together, get her running & then sell it? or keep it & make a sleeper? no power steering or brakes. It has just the right amount of shitty that everybody loves right now. It does have two too many doors for my liking, but somehow that factory 4 speed cancels that out. I need another project like a hole in the head, but somehow the deal just happened. I was just so helpless to say no. Give me your thoughts.

FE Technical Forum / Re: Failed oil filter pictures....
« on: August 29, 2015, 02:34:45 PM »
It's just like everything else these days. hokey manufacturing relying on an old name that had a very good reputation. I can remember 50 years ago (depressing,.... the 50 years, not the fact that I can remember) when fram was king. It was sold & bought a bunch of times getting shittier every time.

ford had a bulletin out on not using aftermarket filters in 5.4's. seems like filter media gets stuck in the small oil passages in the timing chain tensioner circuit causing tapping noise & voiding warranty.
