    Safe Sled

    I thought UHMW was compression mold only? Mr Plastic has forgotten more than I've ever learned about plastic though :) Either way, UHMW plastic is amazing for wear strips. Would go a long way towards extending life/use case.

    Buggy Power Steering issue

    I don't think you can get it hot enough in a buggy. Not a lot of load, and the lines are super long for a lot of volume/heat dissipation. Check the screen in the reservoir for shit. Change the fluid (burp it by moving the wheel back forth a gazillion times while keeping the reservoir topped...

    Safe Sled

    Thought about a replaceable UHMW wear pad? Could injection mold the main structure like you have, then compression mold/machine the replaceable block. Definitely more processes/BOM, but would make the skid last a long time with relatively cheap replacements. Guy like @MGMFRP might be able to...

    How Often Do You Change Spark Plugs In Your Blower Motor?

    Think of all the 1.5L 3-bangers Ford has out there making almost 200hp on 87 octane with 11:1 compression. Same thing for all the flex fuel vehicles, or daily drivers guys have tuned running E85 and eleven billion pounds of boost. If plugs needed changing every 1000 miles, there'd be a lot of...

    How Often Do You Change Spark Plugs In Your Blower Motor?

    Sand cars are run hard... But when I started wheel to wheel racing, I got more race seasons on a boosted engine (approx 3,000-4,000 miles a season, making 130whp/L) out of the plugs than I did the motor. Usually, I had 3 plugs that were perfect, and one that was modified by the piston or...

    Iran Escalation

    The culture is definitely not Western. It's a culture of pushing and shoving and getting away with shit. As a result, I refuse to go to the La Mesa Costco anymore. Felony battery awaits me there.

    I wouldn't say we're at all in control of Iran...

    Iran Escalation

    As usual with modern media and politics, the troof lies somewhere in between.

    Iran Escalation

    Whoa, easy there big fella. :ROFLMAO: I only said it sorta pencils out with solar. The array cost still has to be factored in... That all said, my array has definitely paid itself off. Green Deal can KMA.
