I have been fishing on lake Ontario a few times since that instance and took Dramamine pills and didn't have an issue. A combination of the diesel and the larger waves nearly killed me lol. So you were in the Navy and got sea sick... hmmmmmm :p Speaking of Navy... I just got home from a week long trip in San Diego. What a cool city and amazing Naval presence! Was never in the Navy I work for them now... And yes I still get sea sick... Glad my job is mostly on the land. Dramamine does nothing for me, sea sickness patch (scopolamine) works but I get super dopey on it, it's the "truth serum" drug you would see in old movies. The only thing that works in the sea sickness watch, it's basically a tens unit on your wrist and "shocks" you nerves in your wrist to keep you from puking... I usually keep in at 1-2 on normal rides, but the sea state 6 I had it at 5! it would make my hand ball up out of my control... I use to play a game "Who can take it at 5" and nobody make it past 3 without dropping it... 19 hours ago, Fudge_Brownie said: That picture of the sunken boat is a different boat right? Did they sink one, then build an entirely different boat and rename it the exact same name, including the '3'? What am I missing? Mighty Servant 3 sunk and they salvaged it (the first photo I posted of it under water) cause they are so expensive to rebuild, and all it needs is s good cleaning and partial rebuild. The second post where the Mighty Servant 1 is partially under water is how they load, is submerges to load cargo, the floats it up. There are some videos on YouTube to show how they work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad850 Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 Would trimming off an inch or two of this coolant temp probe stop it from working correctly? We run one of these in my dads v8 740, and while the fan comes on at the correct time, it shuts off too fast, and then the temp gauge starts to climb during idle. I had to shorten the probe in order to fit it correctly, but I'm wondering now if that's causing my issue. Probably a stupid decision.

Timbo Slice Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 That won't cause an issue. Temperature probes and thermocouples are designed to be installed to the center of the vessel's volume to get the most accurate readings, so keep that in mind when you're measuring how much to cut and whatnot. I can provide a shitty hand sketch if it makes it easier to understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cut it just enough so it has about an inch protruding from the other end of the radiator. I installed it right under the upper main inlet (in the fins), which I'm assuming is the hottest part of the Rad. I've seen mixed reviews on these things, so now I'm assuming maybe it's just a bad product. I also have to check which temperature my brother ordered. I'm seeing they range from 160F to 210F. I'm thinking 190F should be the way to go, with a 175F shutoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINN Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Been using Photobucket for like 13 years I think. Last 2 or so years it has turned to shit. I have trouble accessing my pics in the evenings. Whats a good alternative? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshV70 Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Anyone have a good resource for ordering OEM euro-spec parts (specifically OEM euro-spec headlamps/cornerlamps)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only imagine you'll pay out the ass for them but it seems like Viva has gotten their hands on a bunch of Euro-spec stuff for the new S60s lately. Maybe worth inquiring?

Blockpartie Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 Depends on your definition of retail pricing. OE lights are not reasonably priced and not available for purchase from the supplier(s). What parts exactly, got any numbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty fed up with the terrible mobile app, shitload of adds all over the site, and generally shitty interface. I'll probably make a Flickr account and move everything over to there.
