A monumental cock-up. NASA is one government entity that actually produces useful things, and what happens? We repeatedly cut their budget. Pure research always looks like a waste of time for the shortsighted, but it looks like an important investment for those who look further ahead.

And none of this knowledge would be possible without the Scientific Method. I'm not bagging on religious beliefs here, I'm just giving credit where it's due.

Save your fork, there's pie.

Around 200 years ago, electricity and magnetism were seen as a circus act, a toy that was entertaining but with no practical application. That assumption was incorrect. In the same vein, purely theoretical particle physics may appear to have no practical use and is a waste of time and money...

They have successfully collided particles at 13 TeV. http://home.web.cern.ch/about/updates/2015/05/first-images-collisions-13-tev

A truck carrying seafood on ice was towed to the shop where I worked. Compressor failure, engine couldn't run, but the reefer was powered by the truck's engine. It had been down for a few hours at this point, and pink juice was starting to drip. I have never seen a group of mechanics who...

The owners of a fleet of trucks we service has told us to set the limiters on every single one of them to 62.

No apology needed. I understand.

Well, if it's driven with the ABS light on, the transmission will overheat, sometimes very badly.

Sounds like the meter cluster or possibly VCS is going out. I've never seen what you're describing, so that is simply a guess. Some actual troubleshooting needs to be done to get to the bottom of this issue.

Thank you. I like working with these people, despite our diametrically opposed belief systems. I do it because no one else will, and it needs to be done.

Can you post a pic of this phenomena? I've never seen this E light you're talking about.

I guess you could call me "The Fixer" for a local Christian single mom's support group. I got a call on Saturday. One woman was tired of the abuse from her ex, and she was planning on taking the kids and making a run for it, back to family in Texas. He had come back and seized everything of...

We run the J05E and J08E engines.

That looks a hell of a lot better! It's 4:40 am here and for some stupid reason I'm still awake. But not for long. I'll get back to this tomorrow.

Well that's a mess. It looks just like our model 195. Which means the above procedure for pulling codes may not work. That light is the exhaust brake light. The right side multifunction stalk... push it forward. Well, the one without the high/low beam function. Push/ pull movement turns the...

Just don't call me at 11:30 pm when it's broken and expect me to be cheerful, lol.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, refusing medical care for a child based on the parent's religious beliefs is not exercising one's religious freedom, it's child abuse.

I see you're from Australia. I can only offer what I know on trucks made for the US market. The 816 is not offered for the US market. But just for the hell of it... Your cruise control switch, does it have a push button and a toggle that moves up and down? If so, hold the button (Mode switch)...

Green light with funny picture?
