Bar hopping ends after one shot too many
Passenger disables car with gunfire
|Eliezer Vargas-Maisonet
WATERBURY -- Some say guns don't kill people, that people kill people.
An armed 29-year-old man found guns are at least capable of killing cars, too.

Edward Kim 7d wins Seattle Pro Prelim
Monday May 7, 2012
Edward Kim (r) won all five of his games to win the first AGA-Tygem Seattle Pro Prelim, held May 5-6 at the Seattle Go Center. Ten players competed for the opportunity to go to the AGA-Tygem Pro Final in North Carolina, which will be from July 28th to August 4th. Second place was earned by Yixian Zhou 6d, who had a 4-1 record. Third went to David (Dong) Ma 6d, fourth (on a tie breaker) to young Vincent Zhuang 6d and fifth to Nicholas Jhirad 6d. The second band, which was not competing for the pro position, had six dan level players. Kum Kang Lee 4d placed first, Job Betcher 2nd and Louie Liu 3rd. The tournament also generated points for the 2012 World Mind Sports selection process.
The Seattle Go Center expressed "special thanks" to Tournament Director John Hogan, "who did a great job starting a new tournament tradition." Bill Chiles was Asst. TD, while Dennis Wheeler, Oren Laskin, Bill Camp, and Bill Thompson recorded games from the top two boards. The games are available here.

Pro System Launch "Monumental Moment" for U.S. Go, says Cho Hunhyun 9P
Sunday April 29, 2012
For a guy whose nickname is "The God of War" and who has amassed over 1,000 career wins, Cho Hunhyun 9P in person in actually pretty mild-mannered. In Los Angeles this weekend to help launch the American Go Association's (AGA) nascent professional certification system at the Cotsen Open AGA-Tygem Pro Prelim, Cho took a few minutes out of a jam-packed schedule Saturday at the Korean Cultural Center to sit down for an interview with the American Go E-Journal. "This is a monumental moment for the AGA," Cho said, "and I wanted to be here, on behalf of the Korean Baduk Association, to show our support." Saying that he's "very impressed" by the American effort and enthusiasm for go, Cho said that simply by launching the American pro system "You have taken the most important step." But, like the game of go itself, Cho encouraged American players to settle in for a long road ahead. "China dominated this game for 5,000 years,Japan dominated it for 500 years and Korea has been on top for just 30 years, so for American players to compete on a world level, it's going to take a long time, 10, 20, maybe even 50 years." Developing a professional system is absolutely key to building the strength of American players, Cho said, because it creates the necessary financial incentives and infrastructure and ultimately will make it possible to have a career as an American professional go player. But because it's impossible to predict the rise of homegrown go prodigies or geniuses, Cho said America must "just follow the path, be patient and put in the effort and someone will come forth." This was Cho's own path to the top, he said, saying that "choosing the path of a go professional was like destiny," adding that he feels that "this journey has not ended" for him and he thinks he still has more to contribute to the game. "The beauty of go is that people become modest when they play." As proof, Cho revealed that he's recently taken up golf, where "I am now the amateur" and can just have fun playing.

How to Earn Qualie Points for 2012 World Mind Sports Games in France
Friday April 13, 2012
All tournaments designated as North American Ing Masters qualifiers, as well as AGA-Tygemgo Pro Tournament qualifiers, are now tournaments at which strong players will be able to earn qualification points for the 2012 World Mind Sports Games (WMSG), scheduled to take place in Lille, France, from August 9-23, reports AGA Tournament Coordinator Karoline Burrall. Players interested in representing the U.S. at the WMSG must be U.S. citizens; all other AGA eligibility criteria for international representatives apply. Upcoming tournaments at which players can earn points are Ronghao Chen's NAIM qualifier and Self Paired Tournament in Somerset, New Jersey April 21-22, the Cotsen Open in Los Angeles on April 28-29, the AGA-Tygem Seattle Pro Prelim in Seattle, Washington on May 5-6, the Rocky Mountain Spring Go Tournament in Boulder, CO on May 12 and the Maryland Pro Tournament (details coming soon). Details are on the tournaments calendar. Players should indicate to the tournament director that they would like to earn WMSG points at these events. "Players are welcome to play in and attend as many qualifier tournaments as they wish," notes Burrall, "but only their two highest point scores will add to make up their final points."
AGA-Korea Agreements Posted
Sunday February 5, 2012
The recent agreements signed by the American Go Association with Korea to promote a new professional players' system in theU.S.have now been posted. Click on our original report — AGA Inks Deals with Korea to Develop U.S. Pro System (12/26/2011 EJ) – for details on the agreements AGA Board Chairman Andy Okun signed with the Korea Baduk Association and the Korean go server TongYang Online (Tygem) December 19th in Seoul, Korea.
AGA Inks Deals with Korea to Develop U.S. Pro System
Monday December 26, 2011
The American Go Association (AGA) in December signed agreements with Korea to promote a new professional players' system in the U.S. AGA Board Chairman Andy Okun (right) signed the agreements with the Korea Baduk Association and the Korean go server TongYang Online (Tygem) December 19th in Seoul, Korea. "With the generous support of the KBA and Tygem, we are off to a great start," Okun said. "These partnerships will help grow go in the U.S. and produce players who can win at the international level. This may be a long road, but with our partners' help it will be a successful finish." Said KBA Secretary General Yang Jae-Ho, "The KBA wants the AGA to grow, and is hoping to see American professional players who defeat Asian players in an international tournament." He added that "I hope to see even bigger tournaments than the Samsung and LG Cup in America." And Tygem CEO Jeong In-Soo (left, in photo) said that "I sincerely hope TongYang Online and the AGA will lead the globalization of baduk through our cooperation." Tygem agreed to provide $30,000 annually to fund the AGA's professional certification tournament, which will be broadcast exclusively via Tygem, which recently launched its English language website, and is seeking to expand its player base outside Asia. Under the KBA Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) – which Feng Yun 9P has complained was negotiated without participation by American professionals – KBA, as part of its cultural mission to spread go around the world, has agreed to allow AGA-certified North American professionals to compete in five major Korean tournaments and to provide them with low-cost training. Kim Myung-Wan 9P, the KBA representative to the U.S., will continue to support the AGA's efforts, and will chair a committee designing the certification system and developing pro activities. Okun credited the two agreements to Kim's "hard work and perseverance." Click here for the Tygem MOU.

question on buffering a solution
Posted 12 July 2010 - 08:24 AM
Say I am bringing up a solution (ex: Tris) to a certain pH, say 7.5 with HCl, and accidentally the pH overshoots to 7.0, or even 6.5. Would it OK if I add NaOH to bring the pH up to 7.5? I've read somewhere that whenever the pH overshoots, throw away the buffer and re-make it fresh. What are your opinions? People said that it totally depends upon the buffer. What is the conceptual difference?
Posted 12 July 2010 - 08:38 AM
Normally it shouldnt matter because you neutralise one with the other one.
If you don't know it, then ask it! Better to ask and look foolish to some than not ask and stay stupid.
Posted 12 July 2010 - 10:56 AM
if you can't tolerate salt and you overshoot then you can add more tris base, titrate then adjust to the new final volume.
you can also just use equimolar tris base and tris-hcl to prepare the buffer (final volume doesn't matter).
genius does what it must
i do what i get paid to do

oh mdfenko already answered it perfectly...anyway it's a matter of empiricism, i.e. try it out...

Client Services
Receptionist SupervisorJessica Fernandez
Jessica was born and raised in West Palm Beach. She has always loved animals. As a little girl she would have her parents buy her dogs,birds, lizards etc. She has always known that she was going to work with animals. She has been working with animals for over 12 years. She currently has 3 dogs and 2 cats. They are her everything. Working with animals is what she loves and will never change.
In Jessica's words:
Why I can to work it's simple I love animals, when I was a little girl I always dreamed of working at a veterinarian office. I must say that the people I work with are great . They feel the same as I do when it comes to helping these pets. When I came to work I feel like I make a difference with our clients and their pets. It makes my day to know that I'm helping them in the same way, to taking food out to their cars, to making them an appointment, helping the doctors and technicians when they need me. I love my job and I know that it is sometimes hard for some to say but how can't you love your job when for the most part we get to play with cute animals.

More than 6 years out of the water. The Collins program has worse down time than nuke subs.
Two subs out of action for six years
BY:MARK SCHLIEBS From: The Australian June 24, 2013 12:00AM
TWO of navy's six Collins-class submarines will be out service for more than six years under the Gillard government's new maintenance regime.
HMAS Rankin and HMAS Collins have been out of action while undergoing maintenance in Adelaide, and will be returned to the Royal Australian Navy much later than the present three-year deadlines. The Rankin is the youngest submarine in the fleet yet it has been docked since 2008. It will not be released by shipbuilder ASC until the middle of next year at the earliest. The Collins is the fleet's oldest and has been at the ASC facility in Adelaide since last August. It will not be released until 2018.
A Defence spokeswoman said no other ships in the fleet were out of the water.
Opposition defence spokesman David Johnston said the government was conducting a "smoke-and-mirrors" exercise on how the maintenance of submarines affected their availability for service.

For a limited time, enjoy the Register's sports columnists' latest columns for free:
ANAHEIM – They talked about the recent "energy" in the place and how the crowd here Sunday was "crazy," first-year Ducks winger Jakob Silfverberg calling the home atmosphere so far this season "unreal."
The Ducks used a story on the team's Web site this week to credit the input of the Honda Center faithful, thanking the fans for their vocal loyalty to date and encouraging their continued noise in the second half of the season.
Silfverberg's quote even was shown on the overhead video boards before the start of the game Tuesday against Boston, the team intent on convincing the masses that they can make a difference.
"The fans get really into it," Silfverberg's quote read, "and it pushes us to play even harder at home."
The visual caused a swell inside the building, the crowd that later would be announced as numbering 17,238 roaring its approval.
Inspired to play even harder, the Ducks then permitted the Bruins the game's first nine shots on goal and didn't have their first until nearly 10 minutes had been played. All it took was some spirited aerobics from goalie Jonas Hiller to keep the score tied, 0-0.
Funny, though, how such starts don't seem to matter much right now to the Ducks, especially at home, where they improved to a ridiculous 18-0-2 by eventually beating the Bruins, 5-2.
That's 20 home games for the season and still not a regulation loss. No other NHL team can make that boast. Everyone in the Eastern Conference already has lost at least three home games in regulation.
No wonder Coach Bruce Boudreau has become fond of saying, "If you believe you can win, you're always in the game." In this arena, the Ducks are always in the game as much as the puck is always in the game.
Odd, but Honda Center never has been known as a black hole, a place opponents dread, a nightmarish house of horrors raining octopi or rubber rats or catfish. Someone in San Jose celebrated a visit by the Ducks there two years ago by dropping an actual dead duck onto the ice.
But here? Sure, Wild Wing has been known to float down from the ceiling, but, just between us, that's a person inside a duck costume not a real duck with pituitary issues.
Over a weekend, a bat – a genuine winged rodent – descended from the rafters at Bell Centre in Montreal. Now that's a nightmare.
The thing disrupted a game between the Canadiens and Senators and became so instantly popular that, within hours, it had a Twitter account. At last check, the bat had 284 followers.
"It was one of those things where it sees a perch on my shoulder," Ottawa goalie Craig Anderson said after the game. "And it's not exactly a friend I want perching on my shoulder."
Despite the scare, the Senators beat the Canadiens in overtime anyway, proving that the bat had no real power and that Bell Centre housed no voodoo-type magic.

Spring Break 1968
I hope you all have been having a wonderful Easter holiday today. We have been having a pretty laid backed Sunday so far. My Easters have tended to be this way for the last twenty years or so. I find it a nice day to sit back, relax and enjoy.
This got me to thinking of Easters when I was a kid and brought back memories of Spring Break 1968 when I was 6 years old.
My parents, brothers and sisters picked me up after Elementary School one day, shoved me in the car and announced that we were going to Florida on vacation.
What? Florida? Just on the spur of the moment?
Only spur of the moment for me! Everyone else knew about the trip in advance.
I guess I was a little bit of a neurotic child. I had ruined many a vacation plan for my family by getting hives the size of Texas or becoming deathly ill just as we were to go on a trip. Many a trip cancelled or postponed because of little old me.
My parents had learned that it might be best to not tell me about a trip until it happened. So off to Florida we went.
We stayed at a motel on the beach. One of those really cool teeny tiny Mom and Pop type motels. I don't think I ever stayed in a name brand hotel until I started working in hotels in college. Up until that time we never wasted money on anything fancy when traveling.
In the wee hours of the morning on Saturday, April 13th, 1968 at 4:48 am there was a total lunar eclipse. I remember sitting on the hood of my Dad's car in that motel parking lot staring up at the moon in total amazement.
Seeing a lunar eclipse was a big thing. Being allowed to be up at that hour of the morning was equally as big. Being allowed to sit on the hood of my Dad's car was HUGE.
Sunday, April 14th was Easter that year. Since we spent it in a motel and had traveled all the way from Ohio in a station wagon, the Easter bunny brought us store bought baskets. You know the kind, the ones with cellophane wrapped around them and filled with inexpensive toys and candy. Mine had a faux Barbie doll in it. And I was ecstatic!
Now, prior to that and every year after that, my Mom always made our Easter baskets. In my little 6 year old mind, it was such a treat to get the store bought one rather than the fuddy duddy old handmade one. I feel sort of bad now for thinking that way back then, because I am sure a lot of love and thought went into her handmade Easter baskets. But come on, this had a Barbie in it!
On the way back to Ohio we stopped at my Grandfather's house in Alabama. It is the only time in my life that I remember having met my Grandfather. I am sure there were probably other times previous to that that I just don't remember, but my Grandfather died shortly after that.
What I remember about his house is that it was an iconic Alabama cottage. And that it has spiders. Climbing up the walls right next to my bed. I didn't sleep a lot while we stayed there.
Whenever I read Layla at The Lettered Cottage my mind jumps back to Grandpa's house. Not because of the spiders, but because of the Alabama cottage look.
We also visited the Holy Land. Made out of stone. It was the Ave Maria Grotto in Cullman, Alabama.
This is a 1968 postcard from there. I was totally fascinated by the miniature town. I'm not sure I understood at the time that it was supposed to be Jerusalem, but I was aware that someone had spent a long time building the whole thing.
So, surprise trip to the sunshine state, lunar eclipse, store bought Easter basket, visiting my Grandfather, a stone village. What a year 1968 was!
Maybe I'll tell you about Spring Break 1980 sometime. The PG version of course!

Nice story. It is always fun bringing up old memories, isn't it. Happy Easter. Lots of rain but a tiny bit of sun. Gotta love OHIO.ReplyDelete
Oh thank you for this wonderful memory of Spring Break 1968. We lived in Alabama and would jump in the station wagon for vacation to see Grandma in Ohio! I remember going to Cullman, Alabama, too. And I always wanted a store bought Easter basket, also. Wonderful memory!ReplyDelete
Did your granpa live near Cullman. My hubby's great aunt lives in Good Hope Alabama (which is practically Cullman). We've not made it to the Grotto yet, but hoping this summer when we go visit we can maybe do that.ReplyDelete
Lol at spiders in the Alabama cottage, I wouldn't have slept a wink. That certainly was a year to remember for you. Isn't it funny how it's only much later we appreciate handmade over sore bought.ReplyDelete
Hi Pam,ReplyDelete
I so enjoyed your story. We look back on those childhood memories now and see how things have all changed. I miss those happy days!! I just think we are getting older... Don't you? Thanks for sharing your Easter memories.
xxx Liz
Great childhood memories Pam!!! Love the photos too!ReplyDelete
Hope your Easter was wonderful!
These kinds of posts are really my favorite. I feel like I'm going down memory lane with you and getting to know you even better! Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
I loved this post, Pam! It was fun and I felt like I was taking the trip right along with you...from seeing the shock on your face when getting picked up at school...to the lunar eclipse to the spiders by the bed. GREAT Spring Break! Love it- xxoo Diana ps. I'll close my eyes when I read the 1980's spring break you took!ReplyDelete
What a nice memory Pam. It sounds like it was an eventful vacation...I'm suprised you can remember all of that being so little.ReplyDelete
I hope you had a nice Easter :)
What wonderful and vivid memories you have of that year's vacation and Easter! It amazes me what sticks in my head from my youth. Sometimes, it's the silliest little things, like the store bought basket or the spiders, that kids remember and can recall years later. My brothers and I always do this kind of reminiscing on the holidays! :-)ReplyDelete
Gurl, you have a good memory. I'm lucky to remember what we did last Easter. Funny the things that stick with us as kids. I can relate to your motel stays. Those were the days! Definitely nothing fancy. Sweet post, Pam! Love grandpa's Alabama cottage!ReplyDelete
Happy Easter! :) ~M
What great childhood memories!ReplyDelete
Hope your day was wonderful.
What a beautiful memory to reflect on! Hope you had a blessed Easter..ReplyDelete
Thanks for stopping by Cozy Blanket. The zoo I went to was in Colorado Springs, Colorado. When we got there (4 weeks ago) it was 60 and raining. When we got ready to leave it was 30 and snowing. They have about the same crazy weather as we do.ReplyDelete

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Newly expanded boating rules to fight the spread of zebra mussels and other invasive species statewide are now in effect.
The rules taking effect Tuesday were proposed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.
They require boaters on lakes and rivers statewide to drain watercraft to eliminate the spread of the pests.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission voted in May to expand statewide rules that had been imposed previously on a lake-by-lake and county-by-county basis.
Zebra mussels were first confirmed in Texas in Lake Texoma in 2009 and spread quickly through North Texas and into Central Texas, clogging pipes and damaging boat motors.
Authorities believe the infestations are accelerated by people who don't drain and clean their boats and trailers and move from waterway to waterway around the state.

1S1 turboshaft engine
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-12-51
SUMMARY: This emergency AD results from reports
of oil leaks from certain reduction gearbox (module M05) front

not corrected, could result in loss of the lubrication duct plug,
followed by a rapid draining of the oil tank, without indication to
the cockpit through low oil pressure warning. This condition can
lead to uncommanded in-flight engine shutdown, possible engine
fire, and an emergency autorotation landing.
Explanation of Relevant Service Information
We have reviewed Turbomeca S.A. Mandatory Service Bulletin (MSB)
No. A292 72 0825, Version A, dated May 27, 2009. The MSB identifies
the affected modules M05 by serial number, and describes procedures
for initial and repetitive visual inspections for oil leaks, and
repair of affected modules M05.
FAA's Determination and Requirements of the
We have identified an unsafe condition that is likely to exist
or develop on other Turbomeca S.A. Arriel turboshaft engines of
this same type design. This AD requires initial and repetitive
visual inspections of affected modules M05 for oil leakage, repair
if leaking, and repair of all affected modules as terminating

Apple and Google Dominance Extinguishes Hope For RIM
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Apple (AAPL) is once again demonstrating to fans and critics alike why it is not only the most profitable mobile-phone maker, but the most valuable company ever.
Sadly for Nokia (NOK) and Research In Motion (RIMM), the iPhone 5 may not be the catalyst for their downward circling of the proverbial drain. RIM is already within the event horizon. Escape from the gravitational pull is unlikely, with Nokia not far behind.
How can we be sure RIM gets extinguished? After all, sales in several large markets continue to grow. Indonesia, for example, is a market where RIM continues to demonstrate effective merchandising. Sales in India at the start of 2012 have never been stronger.
But what the big print giveth, the fine print taketh away. Not all sales are alike. Selling large volumes of phones doesn't mean large profits. RIM had to cut prices in India, and, even after price cuts, sales may have peaked. In the lucrative North American market, RIM smartphone sales have fallen to under 10%.In a growing market with many competitors, a 10% market share could be great. But in a maturing market, with two large dominant smartphone ecosystems -- those of Apple and Google (GOOG) -- a third-place single-digit market share equals loss of critical mass. Five years ago, critical mass didn't mean very much. Today, mobile phones are as much mobile computers as they are phones. IPhone and Android have 300,000 plus apps each, while BlackBerry has about 70,000. Granted some are worthless. But all else being equal, which phone do you pick? Or perhaps more importantly, which phone will the average consumer pick, if they don't already have a preference? You can bet (as many short sellers have, based on the short interest in RIM) most consumers will continue to pick an Android or iPhone when the salesperson informs them that BlackBerry has about one third as many apps. Because app developers add two and two as easy as the consumer, it becomes a vicious cycle of low consumer interest feeding low developer interest. We get the loss of critical mass so important to iPhone and Android.

Oh boy. A Polish airline has picked a doozy of a day to introduce its new Boeing 787 Dreamliner service in the U.S. Just this morning two Japanese airlines announced they're grounding their fleets of Dreamliners after a spate of recent issues, one of which prompted an emergency landing, and the Federal Aviation Administration has joined the fun with an investigation of its own. Which makes LOT airlines' debut date of today well, interesting timing. [More]
Timing Is Everything: Polish Airline Debuting New Dreamliner Service In U.S. Today
Passengers On Plane Didn't Realize They Were Making A Belly Landing
You've probably heard by now about the LOT Polish Airlines flight from Newark to Warsaw that was forced to land on its belly after the Boeing 767's landing gear failed. But according to some passengers on the plane, the landing went so smoothly they didn't realize they were skidding down the runway on the jet's belly. [More]

Yes and no what I'm talking about is evolution, for some reason people have the misconception that we have evolved from monkeys and that is what Evolution says. Which is not the case it says that both us and more specifically chimpanzees have diverged from a common specie a long time ago. If by any chance I misinterpreted your reply and you did understand forgive my ignorance. But your initial point I do agree with it does make me feel better.

A New Twist on the Agriculture ETF
The narrow nature of this fund drew some specific criticism from Michael Santoli in Barron's, who said this fund will "allow investors to play the whip-end of the agricultural-related commodity craze." As increasingly narrow funds continue to be issued, the question of whether funds like this one actually hurt people becomes reasonable.
Some estimates for the world's population show it growing to 9 billion by 2050. The world already has issues with not having enough food and water for today's population. In this context I believe the demand for more food and healthier diets is a one-way trade. This does not mean the stocks are a one-way trade, however. The theme will very likely outperform the broad market during the typical bull cycle, but it is very unlikely that agriculture stocks will offer any shelter during the next bear market. Stocks in this sector tend to be more volatile than the broad market and so it should not be a surprise if an agriculture ETF goes down 40% if the S&P 500 goes down 30%.
I think its crucial that investors understand how the stocks in the funds they own trade. Some market segments will be very volatile and some will have very little volatility. The agriculture theme is very important, and this makes the new fund compelling, but the agriculture theme is far from immune to normal stock market cycles. To expect otherwise is to not understand what you're buying.

Clendenin is a town in Kanawha County, West Virginia along the Elk River. The population was 1,227 at the 2010 census. Clendenin was incorporated in 1904 and named for the Clendenins, an early pioneer family in the Kanawha River Valley. Charleston, WV retains the namesake of George Clendenin's father, Charles Clendenin. George Clendenin owned a large portion of present-day Charleston and settled at the confluence of the Elk and Kanawha rivers with several other families.
The first petrochemical plant in the world was built in Clendenin in 1920. This plant was the original Union Carbide Corporation facility. Other chief economic staples included (and to some extent still include) timber, coal, gas, oil, and salt.
The current mayor of Clendenin is Gary L. Bledsoe. Town elections (including the office of mayor and city council) occur every two years. Recent efforts have been made by the 25045 - A New Clendenin group (a non-profit corporation based in Clendenin) and the Business and Industrial Development Corporation (headquartered in Charleston) to enhance economic and cultural development in the town.

I recommend doing a manual oil pressure test, installing a mechanical gauge and testing. Specifications are minimum of 5 psi hot idle and 25 psi to 80 psi at 2500 rpm's.
Blown power outlet (cigarette) fuse.
NOTE : Before removing nozzle assemblies, clean exterior of each nozzle assembly and the surrounding area with solvent to prevent entry of dirt into engine when nozzle assemblies are removed. Also, clean fuel inlet and fuel leak-off piping connections. Blow dry with compressed air. Remove and cap line sensor on number 1 cylinder to permit removal of fuel leak-off tee. REMOVAL Disconnect nozzle fuel inlet (high pressure) and fuel leak-off tees from each nozzle assembly and position out of the way. Cover open ends of fuel inlet lines and nozzles to prevent entry of dirt with fuel system protective cap set. Remove fuel leak-off lines as an assembly. Remove pump to fuel return tube hose at fuel return elbow cap elbow at pump. disconnect hose (from leak-off tee of fuel filter) at leak-off tee. Loosen two fuel return tube retaining clamps, one at intake manifold and one at engine lifting eye. Remove fuel return hose clamp at CDR valve bracket. With clamps removed, remove return lines and tees as an assembly by lifting tees off nozzles. Remove injection nozzles by turning counterclockwise. Pull nozzle assembly with copper washer from engine. Be careful not to strike nozzle tip against any hard surface during removal. Cover nozzle assembly fuel inlet opening and nozzle tip with plastic cap to prevent entry of dirt. NOTE : Remove copper injector nozzle gasket from nozzle bore with O-Ring tool T71P-19703-C or equivalent if not attached to the nozzle tip. Nozzle Holding Fixture Place nozzle assemblies in a fabricated holder as they are removed from the heads. The holds should be marked with numbers corresponding to the cylinder numbering of the engine. Use of this holder permits nozzle installation into original location in the cylinder heads. INSTALLATION Thoroughly clean nozzle bore in cylinder head before reinserting nozzle assembly with nozzle seat cleaner. Pay particular attention to seating surface, in order that no small particles of metal or carbon will cause assembly to be cocked or permit blow-by of combustion gases. Blow out particles with compressed air. Remove protective cap and install a new copper gasket nozzle assembly, with a small dab of polyethylene grease. NOTE : Anti-seize compound should be used on nozzle threads to aid installation and future removal. Install nozzle assembly into cylinder head nozzle bore. CAUTION : Be careful that nozzle tip does not strike against recess wall. Tighten nozzle assembly to 47 Nm (35 ft lb) . Remove protective caps from nozzle assemblies and fuel lines. Install leak-off tees and lines as an assembly by lowering onto nozzles. Connect clip and hose to fuel return elbow at pump. Install line to retaining clamps. NOTE : Install two new O-ring seals for each fuel return tee. Connect high pressure fuel line(s) and tighten to 30 Nm (22 ft lb) using fuel line nut wrench. Start engine. If necessary, purge high-pressure fuel lines of air by loosening connector one-half to one turn and cranking engine until bubble-free fuel flows from connection. WARNING: Keep eyes and hands away from fuel spray. Fuel spraying from partially opened connections under high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause infection. Medical attention should be provided immediately in the event of skin penetration. Check for fuel leakage at high-pressure connections.
I recommend spraying the air bags and componets with soapy water. You might want to take the car to a trusted repair shop familiar with this system due to it is hard to do without a drive on lift.
Sounds like bulb(s) are installed in the socket incorrectly or a defective light socket.
Do you have a check engine light? The hose sounds like the vent for the transmission and is suppose to be open. I recommend looking at the air intake duct hose from air cleaner/mass air sensor to engine and vent hoses branching off of that. Make sure there are no cracks or leaks.
Sounds like the latch/lock assembly is dirty, gummed up or defective. If your not familiar with removing the door panel, I recommend having a trusted repair shop give you an estimate.
Sounds like a internal transmission synchronizer problem. I recommend having a trusted repair shop give you an estimate on repairing or replacing.
Depends on the repair facility, we charge $79.95 for the testing with an hour of labor.
