Most any small engine repair place can repair a small engine generator. The problem of having to sign on with multiple companies to make money, which few actually succeed in doing, is the much bigger problem.

The stated goal of terrorism is to incite terror and chaos. It always has been, whether it's classical terrorism, guerrilla warfare, or the Mosquito Method (where they're just a constant irritation to the point where we overreact). Bickering amongst ourselves, rather than having a united front...

I don't get it.

I usually have my Garmin (c-550) set for Truck, Quickest Route, but I also sometimes use Shortest Route and the same with Car as the vehicle. Shortest Route with Car as the vehicle can be interesting, even in a Sprinter or a van. In rural areas, like mountainous Pennsylvania, it doesn't know the...

Interesting thread. It's a shame we don't have previous threads here on EO about batteries, battery types, isolators, separators, inverters, battery cables, fuses, amp requirements and maybe some pictures on how to do it all.

Re: ultra one 2nd chance points policy change Yeah. Cetane can vary from batch to batch, as it's a distilled product, but gasoline is a manufactured product and is manufactured to specific standards. So whatever the octane rating is, you can count on it being what it says. There are also "Top...

No, I really didn't say that at all. I know of no law on the books anywhere that prohibits people from praying within 5 feet of an abortion clinic, or even inside one, for that matter. Any right, be it the right to pray anywhere you want, or the right of free speech, ends as soon as that right...

I'd answer, but I'm not a newbie anymore. The very nature of the question makes it virtually unanswerable. Newbies don't know enough about the ups and downs of the business to make an educated answer, and those who aren't newbies have obviously made the decision to stay in the business. If a...

That sounds good, and I know a number of drivers, including myself, who would love to do that to make a point, but it's a breech of contract. The load contract isn't to drive a specified number of miles for a specified sum, the load contract is to pick up the freight at a certain place and time...

Actually, it doesn't even say "freedom of religion". It says: To make no law respecting an establishment of religion means that Congress cannot make a law that establishes an official "state" religion, nor can it respect any establishment of favoring one religion or another. Meaning, the State...

Because as a general rule, people should want to know and understand the motives behind an action, especially if the action in question is an unpleasant or unacceptable one. If the attitude taken is, "They want to kill me," and you don't even care why, then the only resolution left at your...

CoPilot 11 has a lot of problems. Some of the features, like how the POIs work, have changed dramatically since version 9. Actually, in ALK's quest to "dumb down" the software to make it easier to use, they completely removed features like "Avoid/Favor" any road, the "POI" manager that allowed...

It's legal, because they offer the load and you can accept it as is, or reject it. On the other hand, if they pay the contractor a percentage, then make them show you the paperwork and have them pony up. It's not ethical, though. It's scummy. It's just another example of a lie that carriers...

The ignorance of the country really is amazing, though. I mean, most Americans don't even have a clue why Al Qaeda and the other Muslim extremists want to kill us.

The view from the bridge to the Dam will be awesome. Here's some killer shots of the bridge under construction. The Hoover Dam Bypass Will Make You Ooooh and Aaaah And here's a nifty time lapse video of the construction. http://www.hooverdambypass.org/HooverDam1.wmv

The drain valve can be bought with or without a nipple. Without the nipple and it's just an open hole, same as if you unscrewed the regular drain plug, and the oil will come out like normal. The one with the nipple allows you to do a couple of things. One is to attach a hose to it, in order to...

At Con-Way NOW it was 50 cents to fuel (and I think it was $1 per Comcheck). Four years ago when I went to Panther, the Comdata transaction fee went from 50 cents to a dollar, and since then it's gone up to $1.50. For a Comcheck it's $2. If you get a Cash Advance with fuel, it's $2.50. You have...

At the places that have the higher discounts. True enough, those are becoming fewer and farther between. Many have 0.000 discounts, some have just 0.002 of a discount (which comes to a nickel total off a 25 gallon fillup). The discounts in IL are still decent, but nowhere near what they used to...

Ironically, if the law itself is upheld to be unconstitutional, then things would (or at least could) immediately go back to they way they were before the law, where they could ask and you'd have to tell.

"the new diesel fuel will clean out the fuel tanks and fuel lines." Not if you've been using Power Service or Howes Meaner Cleaner in every tank. The lines and tank will already be clean.
