Hey guys, my tank isn't air tight as there is a small crack in the filler sleeve. I can't find out how to drain the damn tank unless I get into the fuel pump - which I really don't want to do.. Looks like I'll go with adding Seafoam and preying when I start her back up again frown.gif

Hey guys, the car's been sitting for 2 years and I have 3/4 of a tank of gas in there!

I've been prepping the car to run again.

I was wondering, how do I drain the gas in the tank so I can fill it with fresh stuff before I start her up again?

I can't seem to find anything on a drain plug. I have a pump but whenever I try to get the hose down into the tank it won't go all the way (as if there's a anti-siphoning device somewhere along the way).

Thanks a lot in advance! biggrin.gif

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help, I tried everywhere/ everything you guys mentioned and it's nowhere to be found. I even went to a mall by my house that specializes in this kind of stuff.. nothing ..

It looks like I'm going to have to try and convince my uncle in NJ to buy it and ship it up to me and then I'll pay him through a bank transfer..

If this fails, I'll come crawling back asking for a good samaritan for some help. Thanks again, you've all been very helpful, I love this community!

what is Gskill... dude, spend more cash on something like that and get quality...

G.Skill is actually a really good brand of memory

ugh... Kingston, Corsair, Crucial, OCZ and even PNY they are good brands of RAM ... gskill... never heard of it and I work with PC's


"ugh".. just because you've never heard of it doesn't mean it's bad, it's a very widely recognized memory manufacturer. wink.gif

try... www.pricewatch.com check it out

I checked this site as well, thanks for the link, but unfortunately the RAM I'm looking for isn't on there frown.gif

why not trust someone to buy it for you. get it shipped to thier house, than to your place tongue.gif

I think that's what may end up happening, I know there are a lot of people on the site that buy and sell things amongst each other, it's just hard to trust someone I've never met with ~$100, let alone having them trust me too..

What's the best way to do something like that? Money transfer? I've never done anything like that before kindasad.gif

Edit: Here's the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820231154

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy a specific type of RAM for my laptop that's note available in Canada off of Newegg, but the problem is that Newegg won't deliver to Canada..

I know there are a lot of Americans on here, can anyone help me out?
Anyone have any ideas of what I could do to get this RAM in my hands?

It's only $99.99 and I'm willing to drive to Buffalo to pick it up (I'm in Toronto)..

I hate to be a stick in the mud, the car's look great, but this movie looks retarted. It would probbaly be worth seeing if they have some good scenes with exotic cars in them, but aside form that you can tell that this movie is marketed at young men and movies like that are usually awfully lacking as far as plot or substance goes.

I think that there is a far greater correlation between humans and cars rather than humans and computers.
As any computer scientist will tell you, analog data can't be mapped on a computer, which makes it impossible for a computer to truly represent the world around us, or us for that matter. Cars have internals that (in my opinion) are far closer to our bodies than computers.

If the traffic corts there are like the ones here, he'll get off the ticket. No cops ever go to traffic courts here. But yea thats slightly rediculus about the whole no proff of insurance bull. But by the sounds of the fact that she was a newbi cop, shes probably gonna show up in court. But yea...stupid though. Hopefully every thing is gonna work its self out.


not true, cops often show up to traffic court in Ontario, especially now considering the fact they recently started getting paid to go to traffic court.

Black comedians make fun of whites all the time, in fact, all comedians make fun of other races, all the time
Imagine a white person calling a black comedian a ni**er after the comedian made remarks about white people just like that black guy in the club called Richards a cracker? And no one is talking about that, why? Because it's far more politically incorrect to make fun of blacks than it is to make fun of whites

Total double standard if you ask me

I'm gonna have to go with South Park's reasoning on this one : Either EVERYTHING is okay or NOTHING is.

i heard that getting tased was as painful as getting kicked in the balls... and that it takes 5-15min to recover from a tase depending on voltage?

and i dunno... being treated like that by the cops... i would think most people would start to act like an ass too...

recovery from being tased is almost instantanious
a few seconds

I don't know about you guys but when a cop tells you to do something you should do it. this guy deserved what he got. you can clearly hear them telling him to stand up stand up stand up or you'll get tazed again and him saying "f you" etc.

YES! thank you! I totally agree, if you don't respond to police orders you deserve to be tased, he was acting like an idiot and fully deserved what he got.


Absolutely not. 2 men can easily carry that guy out or drag him out. You do NOT deserve to be harmed if you are not exhibiting any form of a threat or violence. He was not resisting he was not threatening. This was excessive force.

I wouldn't say that 2 men could easily carry someone out, it is very hard to deal with someone who is struggling, however I acknowledge that there were 3 cops (I think)

Anyway, I think the main section of video that we need to judge wheather or not tazing was nessecary was the first bit, who knows maybe this guy tried to run or tried to reach for the tazer or something, but all speculation aside I agree with it mainly on the basis that the suspect was given clear orders to "stand up or you will be tazed" which he disobeyed and responded "f*ck you". I don't think people like him deserve to be treated like everyone else, if you are going to be an idiot I think you should get tazed, as long as you're given clear warnings..

I can see why the force used was a little over the top, but I think the fact that the guy was acting like a total idiot warranted a tazing, I mean seriously, you don't talk to authority figures like that, that's just my opinion

I want a Wii, but I might get a 360 in the future too..

I have a PS2 and had a PS1, but I say **** Sony with their overly expensive console and crappy games (for now).

totally agree with the price issue, however Sony is actually selling the PS3 at a loss!


If I were to pick a next-gen console it would be a 360, however the Wii does look pretty impressive, I love the innovative controllers, hopefully they pan out.
