NUMBER 15 VOL 11
JUNE 15TH 2008
WEATHER; HOT-HOT, HIGH HUMIDITY, 74/103 DEGREES
WE HAD A GOOD TURN OUT FOR THE FATHERS DAY “POT LUCK” LUNCH! MIKE CALLED FIRST THING AND SAID HE WAS WORKING ON ONE OF HIS BOSSES HOUSES SO THE RENTER COULD MOVE IN! TIM, ELYSE AND THE KIDS SHOWED UP SOON AFTER MIKE CALLED, THEN SHANNON AND KONNER, KELLY CAME UP AND GLENDA HAD TO WAIT FOR HALEY JO TO WAKE UP THEN THEY CAME UP! WE ALL VISITED AND THE KIDS PLAYED ON THE FLOOR! TIM AND I TALKED ABOUT THE INTREPID PROBLEMS AND WENT OUT BUT COULDN’T FIND WHERE TO PLUG THE DRB II IN SO WE COULD CHECK IT OUT GOING DOWN THE ROAD, OH WELL, I’LL FIND THE PROBLEM! TIM NOTICED A SHORT PIGTAIL WIRE STICKING OUT FROM UNDER THE INTAKE PLENIUM, WE TRIED TO FIND A SENSOR WITHOUT A PLUG BUT EVERYTHING WE COULD FIND HAD WIRES PLUGGED IN TO IT! I WAS TRYING TO TRACE IT DOWN BY COLOR CODE BUT IT DOESN’T SHOW IN THE “GENERAL” SCHEMATICS THEY PUT IN THE MANUAL!
AFTER EVERYONE HAD LEFT PEGGY CALLED AND WISHED ME A HAPPY FATHERS DAY! WE TALKED ABOUT THINGS OUT IN CALIFORNIA, HER RACE CAR AND THE PROBLEMS THEY’RE HAVING WITH IT! HER ADOPTED DAUGHTER, KAILYN TOTALED HER TAHOE PICKUP, THEN A WEEK LATER HER HUSBAND BLEW THE TRANSMISSIN IN HIS DODGE DAKOTA! AND KAILYN WAS TO GO TO WORK ON A NEW JOB THE FOLLOWING MONDAY! BOTH PICK UPS DOWN AT THE SAME TIME! PEGGY DIDN’T SAY WHAT THEY DID BUT THEY MUST HAVE HANDLED IT!
PEGGY’S GOING TO TAKE HER RACE CAR BACK TO THE DYNAMOMETER NEXT FRIDAY TO CHECK AND SEE IF THE CHANGES THEY MADE CORRECTED THE PROBLEMS THEN, THEY RACE THE FOLLOWING WEEK END AT BAKERSFIELD!
SHE HAD A 1995 INTREPID AND I WAS TELLING HER ABOUT THE PROBLEMS WE’RE HAVING WITH OURS! AS SOON AS I TOLD HER IT SLOWS DOWN ON A SLIGHT PULL AND EVEN THOUGH I PUSH ON THE ACCELERATOR THE SPEED DOESN’T INCREASE BUT THE RPMs DO SHE SAID THE “MASS AIR SENSOR”! SHE HAD THE SAME THING WITH THE RACE CAR SO TOMORROW I’M GOING TO FIND WHAT CHRYSLER CALLS IT, THE BOOK CALLS IT THE “AIR TEMBERATURE SENSOR”! THEY’RE BOTH IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD! THAT COULD BE WHAT THAT PIGTAIL PLUGS INTO, WE’LL SEE!
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
A JEWISH MAN WALKS INTO A BAR AND SITS DOWN. HE HAS A FEW DRINKS THEN, HE SEES A CHINESE MAN SETTIN AT THE OTHER END OF THE BAR AND WALKS UP TO HIM AND PUNCHES HIM IN THE FACE.
"OUCH!" THE CHINESE MAN SAYS. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?"
"THAT WAS FOR PEARL HARBOR," THE JEWISH MAN SAYS.
"BUT I'M CHINESE!" "CHINESE, JAPANESE, WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?" AND THE JEWISH MAN SITS BACK DOWN.
THEN, THE CHINESE MAN WALKS UP TO THE JEWISH MAN AND PUNCHES HIM IN THE FACE.
"OUCH!" THE JEWISH MAN SAYS. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?"
"THAT WAS FOR THE TITANIC," THE CHINESE MAN SAYS.
"BUT THE TITANIC HIT AN ICEBERG!"
"ICE BERG, GOLDBERG, WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?"
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE
