Toyota 4Runner Maintenance and Repair
tidester Posts: 10,109
rnbwtrout Posts: 1My '90 4runner refused to shift this morning after turning a corner and I had to drive it home the whole time like that. The RPM just keeps climbing and I get no power. It seems like the automatic transmission is stuck in 1st gear. It's been sitting for about a week since I was out of town... Anyone have this problem before?
polartoy Posts: 18The greasing of the slip yokes does work. I have had it done on three forerunners so far. Sometimes they do a poor job of it and has to be redone. However when done right, the clunk is gone for quite a while. In Vancouver, they have started to do this on every oil change without asking, so you know there is a minor problem and many complaints.
Hate to say it, but that is a classic sign of an automatic transmission whose time on this planet is done. HOWEVER, if you are lucky, it just needs a good flush and refill - also clean the filter inside. Take it to one of those places that advertises a "power flush" of the transmission, get all the junk out and the filter cleaned, then cross your fingers when you drive out of there.
I am assuming this happened when it was cold, and from the very start it was not shifting? If it was shifting fine, then all of a sudden during the drive it stopped shifting, that is something else. Like maybe the shift linkage, hard to say from here.

I Own a 2004 4 runner sport edition the other day I decided to change the oil and oil filter, then the maint. light came on, I read somewhere in this forum some members were told to read the owner manual ,which would tell you how to re-set that light,I read the 409 pages and there is nothing on how to re-set that light,I want to avoid going to the dealer,Anybody can help me with this issue ,thank you for your time.
We have the same vehicle. While I don't know which page the reference is on, it is in there.
Here's what you need to do - it's simple.
1) Before you start your engine, press (and keep pressed) the Odometer button (not the trip button) on your dashboard.
2) Insert your key into the ignition and start the engine. In 2-3 seconds, the MAINT light will flash several times and disappear.
I've got 26K miles on my vehicle so I've done this 5 times so far.
Hope this helps.
Here's my latest dilema. The dealership I initially purchased my vehicle from was bought out by a competitor. Since that time, the service department has used the excuse that they've been too swamped to get programs set up or that the new dealership has graciously agreed to take care of my problem.
When they called to tell me my parts were in, I was informed that I would need to leave my car with them for 2-3 days. When I called to set up a time, I asked them if they'd be able to set me up with a loaner. Long story short, I was told that it was the policy of the new dealership that they didn't offer loaner cars.
I've gotten tired of dealing with these "professionals". I called another dealership, explained my situation and was informed that it was Toyota's policy that a customer having warranty work done which required an overnite stay would receive a loaner car. I guess my former dealership didn't get that memo.
As a result, I'm starting the process over and bringing my car in to my new dealership in the morning. Not surprisingly, they'll even give me a ride to work and pick me up after they're done looking at my car - as it should be.
A word of warning to anyone in the Northeast who's thinking about doing business with LIA TOYOTA - think twice. I have not found them to be customer friendly when it comes to such basic tasks as warranty work.
I've got a 2003 4Runner, so my manual may be different than yours. But the information is in my manual. It took me about 5 minutes to find it. In the 2003 Manual, it is in Section 1-5, Operation of Instruments and Controls, page 123. It reads, in part:
"You need to reset the light after the engine oil replacement. Reset the light by following the procedure below:
1. Turn the ignition key to the off position with the odometer reading showing.
2. Turn the ignition key to the on position while holding down the trip meter reset button. Hold down the button utnil the light goes off. Before the light goes off, it illuminates for 3 seconds, flashes for 2 seconds and illuminates for 1 second."
I'm sure the same information is in your manual as well. Unfortunately, the index in the manual is not that great.
fernnn Posts: 1Just recently I had come to find that my starter on my 2000 Toyota 4 Runner. I am not very mechanically inclined but recently have tried to do maintenance rather than paying a mechanic to do it. I went and purchased the starter but once I got underneath the carraige, I became frustrated as I disconnected the starter but realized that the two bolts that hold the starter are quite a pain to get to, and even more to loosen. It appears as though I need to remove part of the exhaust pipe that goes to the muffler but am a bit unsure. Any tips or advice would be helpful. :confuse:
I have a 92 4Runner with a new engine(65K) so they said.Right after new engine was installed the truck was kind of sluggish and lack of power, I checked the timing and it was set way too low(8) from the recommended from factory. I raised it a bit to 12 and the truck gained some considerable power, but the gas consumption still the same. It is using too much gas like 5 miles a gallon. Someone mentioned to replace the O2 sensor and the heave gas usage would stop. It is a bit expensive part to be guessing if it might solve the problem, all the tune parts in the truck are new, so that brings me to this forum to get new suggestions or ideas where to start.
you don't have any dash lights, right?
It could be a plugged cat if power and gas mileage are down.
You should be able to get O2 sensors for fairly cheap, like $20, and they were right, that could be the cause of heavy gas consumption too, although that would not decrease power. Now that you have the timing at 12 degrees, do you feel it is as powerful as it ought to be, or still sluggish? I assume this is a truck you had for a while BEFORE the new engine was installed, right?
2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
Thanks for writitng, yes I have owned this truck since new and I love it except for the part when the engine went bad thanks to Jiffy Lube. By increasing the timing power is up but not like it used to, there is a bit of sluggishness still. I called the dealer and couple other places for the O2 sensor and they all have it over $100 bucks, where can I find it for $20?
jim58 Posts: 20Sorry for the dalay but not looked at this site in a few weeks. The problem seems to be in Toyota's design. I think they made the system read higher mileage in order to entice test drivers to buy that particular vehicle since it is showing higher mileage than on the window sticker. Mine shows higher mileage by quite a bit and it is allways 86% lower than actual displayed mileage. Such as, when the computer shows 19.00 mpg, we are actually getting 16.34 mpg.
I also noted that I reset the average speed to zero and set the vehicle on 60 mph on cruise control which it maints accurately, and the average speed shows 58 mph! This leads me to believe that the odometer reading the computer gets is less than actual which could account or the error. Of course, Toyota denies any problems in this system and will not investigate it. I intend to file suit against Toyota and the arbitration company who refused to test drive the vehicle during our hearing!
Even at my dealer O2 sensors aren't $100. What's up here? The last time I bought one was a couple of years back, could they have gone up 50% in that time? At AutoZone they are like $29.95 if they have them in stock, which is admittedly rare.

hrhchac528 Posts: 1Hi, I'm new at this so bear with me please. Does anyone know the procedure, or how to "program" a key for an 03 4Runner? I just bought one and the guy gave me two keys. He said the spare would unlock the doors but it won't start the truck until it's been "programmed'. He said he was told some sequence to go through, but it had to be done in a given amount of time and he could never get everything done in the alotted time. The local Toyota dealership (thieves) want forty bucks to program it. Sounds like a scam to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
lazzarich Posts: 37Sounds like an interesting lawsuit!?
I would not expect the computer to be exact but rather within a 5% error range which is fairly typical of all cars I own. Buy a GPS or 2 and you will find that most cars typically overread slightly on speed and also on the odometer. My BMW has a 3% odometer and a 6% speedometer overread at speeds above 40MPH. It helps in keeping me out of Highway Patrols sights. Remember that if you change tire size, or any gearing you will also need to either recalibrate or account for that change.
My 4Runner (2005 V8 4WD) appears to be very accurate with speed and odometer. The computer is optimistic by about 2 MPG, but I just adjust for it. It's not a Cessna airplane so if its a bit out it is of no great concern.
Be aware that GPS's also have slight errors which typically relate to reception so they may also contribute to the error if you check it this way.
jd5 Posts: 2I have a very annoying problem that seems to be getting worse in that the vent/AC fan has begun squeaking constantly when the fan is turned on to any level. I assume that it needs to be lubricated but I'm not sure if the fan is accessible to me without having to tear out the dashboard.
Anyone ever have this problem before and is the fan easy to get to? It seems to be somewhere in the area behind the radio in the center of the dash? At least that's where the noise seems to come from. What would the proper lubricant be, dry (graphite) or wet???
Thanks for any help!

The U.S. Government, through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), signed a partnership agreement on November 13 to improve urban emergency preparedness and response in Addis Ababa.
More than 300 Ethiopian and international participants including Ethiopian President Dr. Mulatu Teshome, U.S. Ambassador to Ethiopia Patricia Haslach, and Secretary General of the Inter-Africa Coffee Organization Fred Kawuma attended today's opening of the second international coffee conference, "Building a Sustainable Coffee Future."
-The U.S. Embassy in Addis Ababa is pleased to share the announcement of a major transaction under President Obama's Power Africa Initiative. Gary Linden, USAID Ethiopia Acting Mission Director, noted the significance of the new project:
On September 20, 2013, USAID Ethiopia Mission Director Dennis Weller and Korean International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) Resident Representative to Ethiopia Byunghwa Lee signed a memorandum of understanding for cooperation on maternal, newborn and child health, an area of collaboration between the two aid agencies across sub-Saharan Africa.
USAID and eight other organizations, the Maize Alliance, signed an agreement today to provide an integrated bundle of services to smallholder maize farmers in Ethiopia. While substantial investments from the government and development partners are being made, an integrated approach is necessary to unlock the potential in the maize value chain. This new alliance will assist maize farmers with a secure commercial market, access to finance, post-harvest handling and storage services, and efficient aggregation and commercialization services through farmers' cooperative unions.

When exactly did Marla McGivers die?

Re: When exactly did Marla McGivers die?
According to IDW's comic, Marla died some months after they were marooned and after the explosion.
She was killed by some of Khan's followers who rebelled against him after Ceti Alpha V was devastated, and who disagreed with his acceptance of Kirk's sentence. They infected Marla with an eel and ordered her to kill Khan, but he managed to avoid the assassination attempt. Sadly, she died shortly thereafter from complications.

This is a continuation of co-pending application Ser. No. 360,194 filed Mar. 22, 1982, now abandoned.
A system is provided for determining the density and level of the primary coolant in the pressure vessels of light water nuclear power reactors.
The accident at Three Mile Island nuclear generating station Unit-2 (TMI-2) has shown that it is important for all light water nuclear power reactors to have some means for determining the density and level of the primary coolant in the pressure vessel. If data from such a system had been available to the TMI-2 operators, the extensive damage which occurred to this unit might have been avoided.
The system should be able to operate under a wide range of temperature, pressure and radiation levels. It should be capable of operating with the reactor at power and in its shutdown mode and should be able to detect changes in coolant density when the pump(s) is/are running and changes in coolant level when the pumps are turned off. To allow for safe yet rapid backfitting into existing reactors, the system should not require any major modifications to the plant such as penetration of the primary system boundary. Various types of level systems are under consideration. Systems have been proposed which involve the use of such concepts as elastic deformation of the pressure vessel, Cerenkov radiation monitoring, and the use of ultrasonic or microwave emission and detection. It is known there are many potentially interfering signals which effect the accuracy and reliability of some of the proposed concepts. The interfering signals originate from such sources as the intense gamma and neutron fields, system vibrations, and the lack of a clear sharp boundary between the steam and water in a light water reactor undergoing a loss-of-coolant accident. Some of the proposed concepts would require new penetrations of the reactor pressure vessel, and most would require extensive and expensive retrofitting. In addition, they would require substantial testing to verify that a chosen solution would provide the desired information under accident conditions and that it would not compromise the safety and performance of the plant.
By studying the TMI-2 accident data, it has been found that the source range neutron detectors (SRD) behaved as coolant density monitors in the period between 20 and 100 minutes after the turbine trip, and as a liquid level gauge during much of the period in which the core was partially uncovered, i.e., between about 100 to 175 minutes after the turbine trip.
It has been discovered that reactor-produced neutrons, with properly positioned external neutron monitors, can be used to provide information for gauging coolant density change under "Pump On" conditions and liquid level changes under "Pump Off" conditions.
It has also been determined from a study of the TMI-2 accident data that shortly after shutdown, the primary source of neutrons is the (γ,n ) photoneutrons produced by the interaction of fission product gamma rays (high energy photons) with deuterium atoms in the coolant water rather than the Antimony-Berylium-Curium (ABC) neutron sources. For example, at 120 minutes after shutdown the photoneutron source intensity was estimated to be 1�1011 neutrons per second while the combined strength of the two Antimony-Berylium-Curium fixed sources was about 3�109 neutrons per second. Since the neutrons are produced in the coolant by the (γ,n) reactions, changes in coolant level relative to a given detector will alter the source detector geometry. Thus there is a fall-off of photoneutron production as well as a continual change in the source-detector geometry relationship with a decrease in density or level of the coolant water. Many of these primary neutrons are thermalized in the coolant and lead to fission events in the nuclear fuel. Thus secondary fast neutrons are produced through this multiplication process, such that with a core full of coolant about 60% of the neutrons seen by the SRD come from core multiplication and not directly from the photoneutron process. This percent was found to increase with decreasing coolant level. Both coolant density and coolant level changes affect neutron multiplication. Multiplication decreases with increased voiding as well as with decreased coolant level.
The majority of the neutrons reaching the SRD originated as photoneutrons which then had undergone multiplication in that region of the core closest to the SRD and escaped through the reactor water downcomer and reactor vessel wall as fast neutrons. They were then moderated by the polyethylene liner surrounding the SRD and by the concrete in the shield wall. The resulting thermal neutrons were detected by interactions with the boron in the SRD.
Study of the TMI-2 accident data also showed that the use of a single detector can provide ambiguous readings since more than one combination of conditions such as coolant level and boron concentration can produce the same count rate in the SRD.
We found that in order to obtain clear and quantiative information concerning coolant density when the pump(s) is/are running, or coolant level when the pumps are shutdown, the system would need three or four neutron detectors located outside the reactor vessel. One would view neutrons coming primarily from the lower core region, one would view neutrons coming primarily from the mid-core region, one would view neutrons coming primarily from the upper core region and one would view neutrons coming from above the core region. In general the detectors would be placed in one or more of the existing nuclear instrumentation wells which surround a reactor vessel. Some power reactors have as many as 12 such wells and often contain a few unused wells. If no spare wells are available, dual usage would be made of one or more of the operational instrument wells. For a BWR, an alternate location such as a position in the drywell may be employed. Thus, no additional structures would have to be installed to retrofit a reactor for using the gauging system of the invention.
For acceptable instrument operating life under conditions of long exposure at full reactor power, the detectors, in the illustrated form of the invention are fission chambers of a conventional design, shielded from thermal neutrons, rather than the more commonly used BF-3 detectors. There are a few differences between fission chambers and BF-3 detectors, but fission chambers have been successfully employed in many reactors. Thus currently available detectors based on proven technology can be used.
Throughout the specification and claims the following words, terms and acronyms mean:
TMI-2--Three Mile Island nuclear generating station Unit-2;
LOCA--loss-of-coolant accident;
SRD--source range neutron detectors;
ABC--Antimony-Berylium-Curium neutron sources;
BWR--boiling-water reactor;
PWR--pressurized-water reactor;
BF-3--boron trifluoride type neutron detector;
Non-Invasive--positioned external of the reactor pressure vessel
The invention will be more fully described in reference to the drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a fragmentary partial sectional view through a typical light water reactor;
FIG. 2 is a section on line 2--2 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary view of one of the detectors in an instrument well;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged view like FIG. 3 illustrating typical shielding of one of the detectors; and
FIG. 5 is a diagrammatic showing of suitable instrumentation for certain of the detectors.
Referring to the drawings and in particular FIGS. 1 and 2 thereof, 10 generally designates a basic reactor configured as a typical light water reactor. The reactor vessel designated 12 has mounted therein a thermal shield 14 and a core barrel 16. Within the core barrel are the fuel assemblies mounted in the conventional grid designated 18. Above the grid 18 is a plenum assembly 20.
The entire assembly is contained within a concrete shield wall generally designated 22.
The reactor is provided with a plurality of light water inlets designated 24. The inlets feed into downcomers 26 and the flow of light water passes upwardly from the bottom area of the reactor designated 28 through the grid assemblies and the fuel assemblies into the plenum 20. From the plenum assembly and the top of the reactor in the zone 30 the heated water and vapor pass from the reactor vessel via outlets 32.
For clarity various internal instrument locations, power range neutron detectors, source range neutron detectors, control rods and the like have not been illustrated.
The concrete shield wall supports a plurality of instruments tubes or wells generally designated 43. These instrument tubes or wells, as to be more fully described hereinafter, house the neutron detectors, preferably of the fission chamber type. The instrument tubes or wells 43 may be placed in the concrete shield wall 22 or, for example, the wells may be positioned in a water shield tank. The exact location of the wells will depend to a large extent on the type of reactor.
In FIG. 1 there are illustrated, in vertical alignment, four fission chamber detectors. The fission chamber detectors are designated A, B, C and C'.
In FIG. 2 it will be noted that there are more than one vertical arrangement of the detectors A, B, C and C' to make the detection system more reliable. These assemblies are designated D, E, F and G.
Detectors A and C would give roughly the same readings since they have nearly the same geometry in respect to their position to a major section of the core. Detector B provides a higher neutron reading because of the smaller path length between the detector and the reactor core 18.
Detector A would be a reference detector to which the outputs of the other two detectors are normalized. Such ratio-type measurements would not be significantly affected by changes in operational or shutdown power level.
Some density change will normally occur as the coolant moves through the core so that the water below the core would be more dense than that above in the core. This can be used as a convenient instrument calibration check since changing the power level would give a known change in outlet water density compared to inlet water density. Under an accident situation, the bottom section of the reactor vessel would be the last region to be voided, thus the detector A would always be looking at a reactor through a uniform volume of inlet coolant water which is less susceptible to voiding than the water closer to detectors B and C and/or C'.
Detectors B and C and/or C' would be used to detect level and density changes. The detectors in position C and/or C' would be the main gauge monitor for the first few hours after reactor shutdown. Normally, having more mass of water between the reactor core and detectors C and/or C' would make them more sensitive to small changes in fluid density than detector B. Detectors C and/or C' would also be the first to detect a drop in coolant level at the top of the core. If one wants to avoid complications produced by the variation in water level in the downcomer, then detector C could be positioned closer to the top of the pressure vessel as shown at C'.
Detector B could also serve the reactor as a source range neutron detector during normal operation, but would serve as the gauge monitor beyond the first few hours after shutdown, since its location is closer to the core it would receive a stronger neutron signal than detectors C and/or C' at that time. Detector B might also be employed to cross check whether or not a change in detectors C and/or C' reading is caused by a change in fluid density, a change in liquid level, or the filling of the downcomer.
During a loss of coolant accident (LOCA) the system would be expected to respond in the following manner. As the system pressure decreases, voiding would occur in the upper region of the reactor. The fast neutron leakage seen by the uppermost detectors, detectors C and/or C' would increase due to the lower density of the steam water mixture and the count rate would also increase. As more water leaves the system, a clear steam water interface would eventually form in the upper portion of the pressure vessel further increasing the neutron leakage and the signal from detectors C and/or C'. Eventually the water level would decrease to the point that the increase in neutron leakage would be offset by the loss of water available to produce neutrons from the (γ,n) reaction. As a result, the output from detectors C and/or C' would peak and then begin to decrease. Based on the TMI-2 experience, this would occur when the water level has reached about the mid-point of the detector. If high pressure injection (HPI) of water were started around this point in time, the output of detectors C and/or C' would also decrease due to increase in water level. Thus, if detectors C and/or C' were the only detector available, one could not tell if the water level were decreasing or increasing. To remove the ambiguity, one needs only to observe the response of detector B. As the water level drops, the leakage seen by detector B would increase because of the increased leakage. If HPI occurs, detector B's output would begin to decrease along with that of detectors C and/or C'. Observation of outputs from the plural detectors would thus give positive indication that the water level has or has not passed below the midpoint of detectors C and/or C' .
The outputs of detectors B and C and/or C' would be normalized to detector A. This normalization provides for compensation of the signals due to such factors as changes in boron concentration and changes in gamma source strength due to fission product decay.
If it was required to have the three or four detectors operate both during shutdown and at various power levels, a mixing circuit could be employed. This circuit would allow the detectors to be operated as sensitive neutron counters during shutdown. At higher reactor power levels, the detectors would act as ion chambers and thereby not suffer loss of signal due to resolving time losses of neutron counters. Such circuits exist and are comnercially available.
The output of the detectors could be on individual meters, as shown in FIG. 5, and/or the signals could be processed for simple presentation to operator personnel by a microprocessor. The important factor in this system is not the form of the final readout which can be provided at any desirable degree of sophistication, but the fact that the system can be installed with a minimum of disturbance to existing installations.
The Detectors
The type of sensors or detectors 40 and the nature and parameters of the shielding thereof will be described in reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.
The detectors must be capable of operating with the reactor either shutdown, or at power. Because of the high radiation levels seen by the detectors at power and the high sensitivity required at shutdown, probably the most suitable detector capable of operating over the entire range is a fission chamber. The chamber should be capable of operating in both the pulse and current mode. Several such devices are available from a variety of vendors. The differences in the vendors' detectors are primarily in the range and ultimate sensitivity of the device. As examples of suitable fission chambers are types WL-23074; WL-23150; WL-23110 and WL-23065 manufactured by Westinghouse.
Because the fission chambers are sensitive to neutrons having a wide range of energies and to gamma rays, the detectors must be shielded. The exact nature and extent of the shielding is established with knowledge of the specific reactor involved. Certain criteria, however, can be laid down that the shielding must meet.
Since the detectors 40 are sensitive to gamma radiation, they must be shielded against gamma radiation from the reactor core. Typically, the shielding takes the form of the lead "boot" 42 which surrounds the instrument well in which the detectors are placed. For the gamma radiation levels typical of this type installation and the detectors under consideration, this requires a thickness of 2 to 4 inches of lead.
It is also necessary to prevent low energy neutrons from reaching the detector. The low energy, or thermal neutrons, do not carry with them information concerning water level and density in the core region. As a result, these low energy neutrons act as a noise source which interferes with proper operation of the system. To eliminate these neutrons, each detector is surrounded by a neutron absorbing material 44 such as cadmium and/or boron. The exact amount and specific combination of materials depends on the reactor in question. It is estimated, however, that 0.025" to 0.050" of cadmium should be sufficient. In addition, a comparable amount of boron may also be necessary to eliminate slow but non-thermal neutrons from reaching the detector.
Another source of signal which can interfere with proper operation of the level gauge is neutrons scattered up the instrument tube. These neutrons can be eliminated by use of polyethelene 46 placed in the space between the detectors and the well. The thickness should be sufficient to completely fill the regions of the tube not filled by the detectors.
As heretofore indicated, it is considered that at a minimum, the system will use three and/or four detectors mounted in instrument tubes external to the pressure vessel. One would be mounted above the reactor core and would view neutrons coming from the region above the reactor. Another would be mounted at approximately the top of the core and would see neutrons originating in the upper core region. A third detector would be mounted at the mid-plane of the reactor core and would view neutrons coming primarily from the mid-core region. The fourth detector where needed would be mounted near the bottom of the core and would view neutrons from the lower core region. The number of detectors employed would depend on the water level height and spatial resolution desired.
Arranging the detectors in this manner will allow level and density information to be obtained from all four regions of the reactor pressure vessel. Additional detectors could be added to improve system water level resolution. That is, a fifth and sixth detector might be added between the mid-core and bottom detector and between the mid-core and the upper detector. The number of additional detectors would depend on the size of the core and pressure vessel and the height and density resolution desired.
In addition, as is good commercial practice, and as heretofor set forth, one would have multiple sets of detectors and instrumentation to improve overall system reliability. Typically, this means three or four sets of detectors located as described.
As hereinbefore set forth, instrumentation for the non-invasive liquid level and density gauge would depend to a large extent on the size and complexity of the particular reactor. It is contemplated that in the future, in order to reduce personnel fatigue etc., many of the instruments presently employed with reactors including instrumentation for the detectors of the present invention would be consolidated into a computer system with appropriate programming. The system would thereby continuously monitor the functions of the liquid level detectors in addition to the other parameters which are usually monitored in a reactor and instruct or carryout procedures for maintenance of the reactor at the desired power level.
However, as hereinbefore set forth, a simple form of instrumentation would be that illustrated diagrammatically in FIG. 5. In FIG. 5 the plural fission chambers designated 40 would each send its signal to individual amplifiers 48 and the output from the amplifiers would be directed to visual type meters 50. With such a simplified system it would be necessary for the operators to detect malfunctioning in the reactor from the meters and then take appropriate steps if the meter readings from the plural detectors indicated malfunctioning or possible malfunctioning in the liquid level in the reactor.
While in the illustrated form of the invention the detectors have been shown and described as being of the fission chamber type other common neutron detectors (i.e. BF3 gas filled detectors, boron lined detectors, and compensated ionization chambers) can also be used in place of fission chambers.
A system is disclosed which will operate under a wide range of temperature, pressure and radiation levels and be capable of presenting quantitative information concerning coolant density when the reactor pumps are running, or coolant level when the pumps are shut down thus providing an early indication of possible loss of coolant in the reactor.

"I like playing in this box. :~)"
Dear Diary!
I'm so excited! I get to write a diary! :D I hope all my furriends are doing well?
Things are good fur me! :) I pee just outside the box a lot and momma and daddy don't like that... they even took me to the vet and he said I had and inflamed bladder and gave me antibiotics and and anti-inflammatory drug but I'm still peeing just outside the box. I won't tell momma and daddy why.
Momma says I'm fat. But the vet said I'm maintaining my weight nicely. pppllllffff! I get a dirty bottom a lot. *blushes* Momma says: "What do you do??? Sit down on your poop???"
Fortunately momma and daddy think I am about the cutest thing in a fur coat they've ever seen so I can get away with peeing on the floor and having a poopy bottom. MOL!
Hope you all have a great New Year!
Dear Diary,
Whew! It sure has been a long time! First, I want to thank all my sweet furriends who sent me Easter Eggs! They are so purrty! And it was so kind of you to think to include me and my furmily. :)
Next I wanted to let you know I have a new nickname: "Precious Treasure." The story behind it is that several months back I jumped the fence in the back yard early one morning. *looks devilish* Well mommy and daddy got all freaked out! And they had a hard time getting me back in. They thought I had gotten caught in between our fence and the fence next door.
After I was captured, when mommy and daddy would open the door to the back yard they would lock me up in the office! Edgar and Salem got to go out, but not me! :(
Well, mommy explained to me: "You are a precious treasure. And when people have precious treasures they lock them up to keep them safe!" Ever since then she has been calling me "Precious Treasure."
I've been released from solitary now when the back yard is open to us. And as far as mommy and daddy know *winks* I've been good and not tried to go over the fence. Because precious treasures have to be kept safe you know!
Dear Diary,
I've become the sweetest lil' lovebug you'd ever want to meet! I crawl up on mommy's lap whenever I get the chance! I got to watch a whole movie with her the other night. It's easy for me to sit with her in her chair because I'm so little I can just curl up in the tiniest hole next to her. I've been loving on daddy too and sitting with him when I can.
I'm pretty brave around Edgar. I'll stare him down if I have to. (I even steal his chair in the kitchen sometimes...). But Salem is being a pain! He attacked me in my little bed tonight and chased me into the kitty condo! I won't put up with that nonsense.
happy, fat, sassy-sweet purrs,
Lucy Cricket

text: It is very unlike the muppets will ever be seen at TDR for several reasons... OLC runs the show, not Disney who is the owner of the Muppets now as far as I know. The japanese public does know the muppets quite well... but there is no connection to those characters and Disney in Japan..at least in the minds of the consumers. Also, the Muppets do not have that "je ne sais quai" cute-factor that is exploited by OLC in regards to the Disney brand. In fact, the muppets would look way out of place at TDR, especially because the muppets fit more into a "studio type" park, over TDL or TDS. Lastly... Universal Studios Japan in Osaka already feature the Sesame Street characters in a HUGE way...including a 3D film, some live shows as well as walk around characters.. The Sesame Street and Muppet characters are basically cut from the same cloth so to speak... I do not believe OLC would like to offer a product that is too similar to what Universal Japan is offering. That is only my opinion but I dare say the Muppets will never come to TDR. Personally...I would prefer TDR to stay "Muppets-free".

It will apparently be a "bold, subversive" drama.
He changed comics, but will TV destroy him?
It was likely due to petty film-licensing squabbles.
It's on Friday, October 10 at 4 p.m.
And the first three pages of the comic, too!
The cartoonist will spend her $650,000 grant on "really boring stuff."
Put these in the Shazam movie, dammit.
First new Miracleman stories in 20 years!
Scourge of the desert!
And we have exclusive pages from his upcoming Winter Soldier series!
And you thought the movies looked good.
Watch our three-minute whirlwind TMNT retrospective.
The rumored Black Cat movie would be a step back for women.
Spoilers ahead, obviously.
There are currently Archies living in four parallel universes across the various comic-book series.
"You know what Captain America would never do? Go online anonymously and shit on a girl for having an opinion."
It all makes sense if you read the comics and look at price tags.
This comic book is on another level.
Get some new ideas. We'll help.
And they announced it on The View.
