rural, fridge was probably older than the house. maybe if the entire wall was black or whole power point was black would you worry.

Martin turning on fridge for the first time:

 

it was the place in melb, fridge bee there for 10 years moved it the otherday for first time and saw that power point.

 

as it is I have surge and UPS on every thing else as they blow up with the electrics in this place.

 

oh well out of here tomorrow.

Looks like I've cracked the gas bill mystery. Meter reader got a digit wrong...
Used 25 cubic meters, not 225 cubic meters. I guess a 3 can sort of look like a 5? Meter was still covered in cobwebs

That's what I said happened to my old man a few posts up ^^^

Bit of a boring race yesterday, once Riciardo dropped out of the running the crowd lost a lot of interest.. was good watching them for a bit but gets repetitive seeing no overtakes, left about half way through the race. On another note the V8 supercars were pretty cool.

Need to go to bathurst.

or even better for a specator Winton is great as most of the front straight area you can see the entire track from one spot

 

if in the country thinking of doing corporate area this year

thus 24 beers a day.

All historic races are awesome, one of my car bucket lists is to go to goodwood revival (been to the Festival of speed so this is next)


Also best racing in Au in my books currently is the Touring car Masters followed by the GT series (basiclly GT3 cup) then the supercars.



 

I know the telstra is the worst, but sometimes it would be nice to be pleasantly surprised.
Day 10 of no broadband and someone today suggested to pickup a dongle from the store and call billing and get them to take data from your plan to the dongle. Why hasn't any of the numerous people I've spoken to not suggested this before??! f**king hell.
And one of my old friends from school does or used to work for telstra as a complaints manager or something, he's been sending emails or something and lo n behold nothing has changed. Call centre shooting emails left right and centre and nothing happens. They talk like it's a strange situation and quite rare, yeah bullshit. 50,000 TIO complaints a year directed to Telstra don't lie.

It's not just Telstra it's all ISPs, I've had bad experiences with the lot of em through work.

Less with the smaller ones (TPG etc. but that's purely because less of our customers use them)

TIO complaint got me out of the GFs shitty ADSL connection with MYreplublic, after numerous 1 hour + waiting in queue to their call center.. now using Optus 200GB 4g gateway for $70 a month. Hacked the modem to lock it to 4G 2300mhz to keep the speeds at 12mbps down.. thats the best we can do at her place. No cable, ADSL got 500ms ping and <1mbps. and ofcourse no nbn

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
