Oh man. Something even better happened. We walked out to my car, and I drove him back to his parking garage. He opened up the backseat to grab his bag, and he pointed to my backpacking gear and asked why I have a red bandanna tied to my backpack. I joked that it was my gang colors, and he said he was going to borrow it. It's not the first time a man has felt entitled to borrow some of my possessions without actually asking, and I'm sure it happens to the men here too, but it made me so mad.

I didn't tell him why I actually had the bandanna on my backpack. You see, I subscribe to the lightweight school of backpacking -- carry as little as possible. I have done extensive research and shelled out lots of money to save mere ounces on my tent and sleeping bag. I've gone without deodorant and toothpaste because it takes up too much space.

And I don't take toilet paper on the trail. That bandanna was my pee rag. I wiped my butt with that.

Enjoy your bandanna, dude.

Yeah. I don't expect to get any of my John Steinbeck novels back after a dude "borrowed" them, because I really don't want to see him again.

Holy poo poo, I forgotten that book. I always thought the best part was the extensive list of PUA tactics and then the last chapter turns the whole book up on it's end and basically calls out PUA's for all of their stupidity and describes what a misreble bunch of shits PUA's really are. Which you could see through the entire book, that's what he was working his way to.

Honestly was a very interesting read - not just how that poo poo actually works but how pathetic PUA's actually are.

So, for the last 2 days, we've been looking for a camshaft position sensor for the original 8L viper engines at work. The results when we tell the various electronics manufacturers what we're looking for is usually pretty great, but so far Bosch and SRT themselves have taken the cake. When I called bosch, they had someone taking the info for the car, year make model etc. There was the pause when they hear viper, but then the chick on the phone made my day by turning around and asking how many cylinders it had. Apparently "Its a viper, it has a v10. They are all v10s. They have never sold a viper with a differnt number of cylinders." is a smartass response and I am an rear end in a top hat for saying it. SRTs response was almost better, they pointed us to a specialty viper dealership/shop. They are the ones that contacted us due to these parts no longer being manufactured due to low demand. We've exhausted nearly every option available to us with every manufacturer we work with and a few we don't. There is literally nothing out there. The last ditch is tomorrow seeing if some lambo part numbers cross over since they had a had in developing the first v10 I guess.

Forget the part number, what's the spec? There will be something that fits and works with the ecu you just need to know what signal it's expecting back.

At the end of the day whether it has 1 cylinder or 16, the crank only rotates 360 degrees.

I meant to type camshaft position sensor. It looks like from the small amount of searching I've done though, that the lambo stuff is gonna be a bust tomorrow when I get my hands onthe actual catalogues. :(

The fits part is where we're having the biggest problem. The sensor is so long, that we're not really finding anything thats going to be close enough so we can go "Here, this should work but will need a bracket or something made".

Edit 2: It also doesn't help that even if we did find something that worked, they might be iffy about buying them because they aren't the "OEM spec/style".

When I was younger I wanted kids but the wife didn't. Now I kinda don't but the wife kinda does.
At least we've decided to wait until we were in a better spot financially, which is good because my car hobby is not showing down.

Today is my Friday, this weird Sun-Wed shift might be good for getting some work done on the projects. I'm installing adjustable konis and h&r springs on the m3 and doing a stock exhaust replacement on the bro-in-laws car tomorrow. Friday will be more e24 disassembly, followed by taking the roof of a friends 4runner. Saturday going offroading in said 4runner with some friends, then finishing up the a/c system in the e28 that sprung a leak.
Depending how things go, I might attempt to replace the front fuel pump on the beater F250.

Did you guys know that a fuel injected dual tank Ford truck (pre 97 I think) only has the return fuel go to the front tank? So since my front pump is bad, I've been slowly filling the 20 something odd gallon front tank, and now its overflowing.

Today's my Friday too. Tomorrow I take the Wife's MINI to the dealer for it's scheduled service :smithicide: I hope they don't take a plunger handle to me. I'm only going there because it still has a warranty and I don't want it voided for lack of visits. Also I subscribe to the 'BMW/mini do not suffer a lack fo maintenence well' mindset. I figure a little money today is worth a lot more down the road. I had an E46 where the PO deferred a lot of maintenence and I hated him for it. I've changed the oil and done the air/cabin filters myself, but gently caress doing a brake flush on something like a MINI, I don't want some module to gently caress up or whatever modern bimmers do these days.

First symptom of a bad switcher valve. Best part is they're a special snowflake that works on where the pressure is coming from (the switch just changes which pump gets power) and the filter is in there too, so if you get an aftermarket one you have some custom wiring and plumbing to do. Try to find a good one at the junkyard.

There's no part number or makers' mark on the existing CaPS? Seems odd especially if it's that big.

If it's cacked already can you dissect it and look for a mark on one of the boards?

It's too bad the Ram SRT10 is so much newer because there are shitloads of those in the wreckers.

Hesitant though I am to trust an eBay interchange list, it doesn't look like it will cost you a lot to find a '95 Ram CaPS from a junkyard and see if it matches:

I'm currently on top of a broken press sweating my knackers off, waiting for another empty barrel to be found and brought up. We were draining one of the gearboxes to inspect for a slipped encoder gear and some knob downstairs decided to move the feeder to check something.

Which turned the oil pumps back on. I'm stood next to a full 200l barrel, we now need to drain another 50k, which isn't fast.
