Hello,
I tried to go to the web site you posted but could not locate the pictures.

Your English is not "that bad".

Edited: played with several combinations of name and web address and found it. This is the correct link Germany Jo's Barth

Beat me to it! Anyway, did you notice it's a 22' with a GM diesel?

Did you have any doubt? I played with it for 5 minutes. How long did you monkey with it.

A new 6.3L I see.

I played with it this afternoon for about five minutes (while on the clock at a consulting gig) unsuccessfully, and finally figured out where to slice and dice it this evening.

But even in my Geekdom, I couldn't keep up with someone who does road sevice at -40F....

I got an Email from Dave a couple of days ago and he said "you are a really cosmopolitan truck guy"

Is that the new word for "Geekdom"?

The coldest was -28 below without the wind chill. I have it pretty easy compared to those "International Falls, Minnesota" truck mechanics.

Nope - Geekdom requires one to be able to sling phrases like DDR2, FSB, AM2, BIOS, overclocking, waterblock, blowhole, CC array, Peltier, etc., as if one knows what he's talking about...

And to be able (as I can) to build a PC in less than an hour and never look at any of the manuals...(Real Men don't need no stinking directions).

But I leave replacing fan belts in sub-freezing temps to you Sons of the Pioneers!

So "Cosmopolitan" is not equated with "Geekdom" I think I understand. Now, for me and the rest of us, could you explain what a "blowhole" is?

And ah, I want pictures. Yeah, yeah... You can draw them and post them here. We won't mind.

Between Rusty and Bill, I'm getting an inferiority complex. These guys could teach Phd level courses on a variety of subjects. As Dave has said, we're lucky to have them. Now if I could only understand what they're talking about. I guess that's one of the great things about getting older--you can't remember what you learned in 1st grade, so you can't learn anything new and nobody expects you to.

on the bus boards a blowhole is an escape hatch.....

Bill, if I told you what a blowhole is, I'd have to kill you (National Security and all that....)

But if you weren't a security risk, I'd disclose that it's a fan on the top of a case that exhausts the hottest air...
