Bloody hell !!!

Everything always goes bad at once!
Lost my girlfriend and then my tranny died. And no they are not related.

got a second job tho so I should stay optimistic. At least I have the $$$

sudseh

I was going to say... at least your gf wasn't a tranny.

Icesickkle

Shut ye hole suds!

Anywho, I do however have some GOOD news. I was able to argue with a judge (yelling actually) and talked him into a few reskeds and a few points off the license. So I now have a legal license again, and only 7 points.

had to pay $1479.00 tho'

All for the love of the sport!

ken!

krautrocket

there is a guy in glen burnie that can weld a penny to a piece of tin foil

lemme get his info for you if you want it...

might cost ya some money ... but aluminum needs to be tig welded especially on something under pressure like an oil cooler

boot pin jumper? just do what I did, it's easy... some people put a switch in and run it to the outside of the case... so they have a "burn new firmware" switch

muythaibxr

OK, I'm probably going to order 4 more megasquirt kits tonight or tomorrow.

muythaibxr

You COULD just drive fast on the track instead of the road... it's a lot cheaper.

I don't have a machine though, and I hate welding aluminum with a tig welder... it's such a pain, and I usually have to warm up on a few pieces of scrap before I get welds I like...

MIG aluminum welding is pretty easy though.

muythaibxr

Actually no, if the aluminum is thick enough, you can mig weld it too... I did it in my welding class... it's very easy in fact, and the welds turn out strong too.

If the metal is thin then yes, you need to tig weld it, mainly just to get the really fine control of the current to keep from burning through the metal.

Now who said they were speeding tickets?

godbless you

Tenacious

welding aluminum is hard as **** >< u need a tig welder, and you need 78t? solder? I'd reccomend taking it to a specialty welding shop, you dont want just anyone welding it.

sudseh

I should do that... Just one more hole in the case *shrug*

muythaibxr

NO, you DO NOT need a tig welder unless it's really thin... I MIG welded aluminum in my class. MIG welders sometimes even come with charts for settings for MIG welding aluminum. MIG welding aluminum is pretty easy too... The main problem here is that unless you have a spool gun (instead of letting a wire feed machine feed the wire) the wire can kinda bunch up on its way to the torch.... if you have a spool gun that doesn't happen because the wire doesn't really have much to get caught on when it's going to the torch.

TIG welding aluminum is a pain in the ***.... (solder? wtf? you just need the right filler rod depending on the aluminum alloy you're welding).,.. the problem I ran into was that the damned filler kept balling up and falling off before I got it to the puddle... I figured out how to get it to work though... for me I kinda had to jab it right at the edge of the puddle really fast, and make sure I didn't take it out of the sheilding gas (contamination from having the hot aluminum filler rod out of the sheilding gas causes the ball-up).

If they weren't then what did you do to get that many points?
