i hope he gets unbanned and decides to come back
hes abrasive occasionally, big deal.

never understood the whole banning thing. theres an ignore user feature. somebody rubs you the wrong way, you can ignore them and never see their posts. problem solved. the guy helped plenty of people. now hes gone. color me unhappy.

Yeah, he knows his stuff, and when he is in the right mood and the planets are alligned just so, he will point you right to the problem without any delay. He just has a bit of a short fuse, if there even IS a fuse... If you don't listen to him the first time he says something, or if you continue to ask for other opinions after he gave you the right answer (that might not have been the answer you were looking for), he will rain **** on you with no hesitation.

He just needs to get laid right before he posts, then he'd be the most easy-going genius around.

Yea i may use distilled. Trust me im aware of the impurities, haha i just never thought of it. It does make sense. Another safety factor right. Think of it was cholesterol in your blood hahha.



As for adder i do hope they let him back. He snapped on me a few times. And to be honest it put me in line. He was helpful, people need to have think skin on the internet, its understanding when people don't take advice and just repeat nonsense.

Mind you i dont own the website, or monitor it so its not my call. They know they banned a helpfull user.

When i started here he helped me on alot of small issue i have now, and because of that i can now help other people with alot of things and i am a smarter person because of it.

But like i said, he snapped when i didnt use the search function when it was a common topic, or when i posted something similar to what i already asked, and i already had my answer. Forums need people like that. Keeps everyone in line.

If someone had a nickel for every time someone asked for a hp estimate, the difference between gt40 and gt40p heads, and the difference between shortys and longtube headers, we'll id be able to afford a new motor!!

Distilled water also explodes when impurities are introduced to it, if its hot enough.

Meh, the rad keeps everything under pressure so **** cant explode. plus *** soon as you toss the h2o in the rad you'll get it all dirty. particulates are impurities too.

anything that causes the phase to nucleate will work.

Or the almost daily auto to manual transmission swap... To be honest, I'm surprised he didn't blow his top on those little gems.
