Some aftermarket speakers have speaker wire terminals that are a little bit wider or narrower than others, and the wiring harnesses Crutchfield provides won't slide onto them.
Just crimp these female quick slide connectors to your Crutchfield wiring harness adapter (after removing the harness's existing slide connectors), and you should find it much easier to connect to your speaker's non-standard terminals. Warranty: 60 days.
Nice freebie.

Average Customer Review(s):
Nice freebie.
Work perfectly , would highly recommend this product to anyone
Got these to complete my custom surround sound system and they work great. Would highly recommend these to anyone.
Pros: Snaps on terminals great
Cons: None at all
made installation so much easier!
Fits 16 gauge wire easily. Very simple with a strong connection.
Pros: Simple and easy to use
Cons: None
Made my boat speaker install a breeze.
Pros: Works as advertised. Easy install.
Cons: None
Just as stated. Makes wiring after market speakers very easy.
Pros: Works great
Cons: None
Very helpful. Fits and performs perfectly.
Loved the terminals. Perfect for my application
Pros: Perfect fit
Cons: None
Easy install. Great value
They came with the order and need to be spliced on to the existing wires.
I wish this was left out of the sale, I do not need these to complete my install so it could lower my cost. They will just go in the box with the other couple 100 I have.
Very poor quality soft metal didn't hold when crimped onto wire
Cons: Wish they where a quality connector. Had to go buy more to complete install.
I wish they came in more sizes I had to adjust a few of them to fit but overall good product
Was as expected
Got my set today. Looking at them I did receive 10. 2 of the .110". 3 of another size. I think they're the .187". And 5 Large ones. Possibly the .205". Which is going to be little help once I start installing the Infinity speakers. Due to the odd assortment.
Pros: Look like decent crimp on.
Cons: Poor Quality Control. The assortment was not correct.
These worked great! Crimped them onto some Ford speaker wire harnesses and it works perfectly!
Pros: Easy to install!
Cons: None so far!
Just what we needed, promptly delivered.
Not a real tight connection
Must have for installation. The metra speaker harness ends do not match up to Rockford Speakers they will have to be changed out.
Pros: Fit nicely
Cons: None
Top quality product
This was a nice addition which Crutchfield threw in with my purchase, the speaker ordered did not come with terminal connectors and these came in very handy and were decent quality.
Pros: Free
Cons: none
Great connectors for Speakers
They work
Pros: They work
Cons: I don't like crimping , I removed the plastic ,soldered and shrink wrapped them. Metal terminal is very thin
standard product...nothing special...worked as expected
I was worried these would be just like the Radio Shack ones I used previously on another project, those work but don't crimp all that great. These seem to be of a little better quality, crimp appears to be better and the metal looks like it might be better (that could be my imagination).
Pros: Crimp well
Cons: Would love to see a connector that crimps twice
These were included for free with my speakers and came in very handy, as the existing speakers I replaced used smaller connectors. They save me from running out for connectors to complete the job.
Pros: They did the job.
Cons: none
Works well
Pros: Works well
Cons: None
Easy Peasy Install Stuff. Nice Quality for my factory setup.
Pros: Quick and easy.
Cons: none.
needed these to fit odd size spade on Rockford Fosgate Punch speakers. Wish Crutchfield would of sent with original order
Pros: Size you need for Rockford Fosgate speakers
Cons: Send in package with speaker harness that doesnt fit,,,,the first time
Works exactly as advertised! Great product!
They work.
Pros: They are included with a purchase.
Cons: Needs to be shielded with shrink tube or tape.
So far these connectors have been good for connecting things to other things. There were different sized connectors in the pack, so I could connect different sizes of things.
Pros: They connect!
Cons: I'll let you know if they stop connecting after a while, but so far so good.
Good terminals.
Pros: Easy.
Cons: None
Helped in finishing the job as my purchase did not come with any
These do the job they were intended for, but they are not high quality. In fact, they are of very poor quality, and the metal terminal ends are not shielded. I would not use these on my car. I junked them and used quality connectors that I picked up at my local hardware store. Crutchfield should include a higher quality connector, when these are necessary.
Cons: not shielded, metal terminals are thin, cheap and break easily.
The terminals are good
Pros: various sizes in package if your not sure what you need
Cons: Can only sen to buy theses terminals as a set rather than the number of each side you need
Perfect sizing for what I needed and the smaller connectors can be a bit hard to find locally. One or two did require very slight and simple adjustment for perfect fit but this is no big deal. Even the tiny connector was large enough on the "wire end" for my wire. Made for a fool proof installation on the tiny (and very weak) terminals of both my Kicker 4" and Infinity 6x9" speakers.
Pros: Good quality and sized right.
Cons: This will be my first ever negative thought after a purchase from Crutchfield. The price of these connectors is highway robbery.
Solid connector, fits nice and tight.
Pros: tight fit, snaps tight on connector.
These slides were nice to have to connect my new Alpine speakers to. The fit snugly and securely.
Pros: Fit snugly and securely.
Cons: None
Bought a set of these and a set of shielded slides.These worked great, I prefer the shielded ones for the extra protection.
Pros: They were great. Various sizes for various needs.
Cons: Nada.
Good Quality
~1mm spades are Tough to obtain for speakers with small negative terminals. There is a nice variety in the package. It looks like the terminals will accept fairly thick wire, but I haven't tried with 12 gauge wire as yet. Others have commented how flimsy and thin they are, but it wasn't super easy to bend/weaken these when I got my hands on them. Time will tell.
Pros: Tough to find ~1-2mm terminals like these. Good for small negative terminals seen on some speakers. (JBL GTOxxx)
Cons: I don't think soldering is an option with this material, but I could be wrong. The could be thicker/stronger.
Used it on my spare speakers
Pros: Sizes to fit all speakers easy to install
Cons: None
Just what I needed.. Makes it nice having the right stuff to do a project !
Nice assortment of connectors, easy to use. Didn't need them due to matching speakers connectors.
Good parts to make you job easier!
All the right parts to make it an easy install and they were free with the speakers
Pros: Right parts right price....free
Cons: none
Cheap and exactly what I needed!
Pros: Cheap, variety, insulated, fast shipping
They are a great little mix pack for the various odd size terminals you run in to. I purchased two packs to have some on hand for other repairs or installs.
These quick connectors is just what you need to install aftermarket speakers.there are different sizes to choose from. Worked great for me!
Worked great!
Pros: Easy to attach!!
Cons: None
could not find correct size connectors for infinity speakers any where except crutchfield !
Pros: just what i needed easy to attach .
Cons: no cons
No complaints. Got a set at Crutchfield's recommendation and glad I did. Simple install -- crimped without special equipment, just a needle nose pliers. Solid, secure connection to my new Polks.
Pros: Variable sizes
Cons: None
These should fit better-- it seems like some are too loose, some are too tight. Kind of annoying; this is a pretty simple product, it should not be too hard to make them slide on and off easy enough but be tight enough and give a good connection.
Work well
Pros: Worked well for what I needed
Cons: None
Well they are connectors and worked. Varying sizes for the negative terminal.
This was exactly what I needed.
Pros: Fit perfectly
had all the connectors I need for speaker install
Pros: nice variety
Cons: none
none of the 12 clips fit any of the rockford fosgate speaker connections.too small
Cons: don't fit
Worked perfect for connecting new speakers to speaker wire from 4 channel amp.
Pros: Easy to attach to speaker wire
Cons: None
These are very basic spade connectors made of soft, thin metal that is easily bent and made unusable. A couple of them were slightly bent already in the packaging and useless from the start. I wasted several others while installing a large job due to the metal being so flimsy. I recommend the spade connectors you can sometimes find in the electrical department at one of the home improvement stores which are much sturdier. In fact the connectors you find there are the same that are on the Toyota speaker wire harness Crutchfield sells. I'd stay away from these and find something with better quality.
Pros: You get several sizes in the set.
Cons: Flimsy.
They do what they're supposed to do
Cons: None
nice quality,comes with several different sizes for both negative and positive speaker terminals a nice addition to my install that made things much easier.
Pros: Price, varying sizes, excellant quality
Cons: none
Perfect little pieces Just what I needed to do a clean install Thanx Crutchfield!!
Worked great over all. Were just a tad too big so I had to crimp them. I broke a couple when installing my rear speakers so you could definitely use more than one pack.
Pros: Solid, hold well.
Cons: Small quantity, broke easily.
These were needed for proper fitment of the speaker harness to the Rockford Fosgate Punch 6x8 3-way speakers that went into my 2014 Mustang base 4-speaker system (door replacements). They were included for no charge since the speakers come with an off sized spade terminal and they also included enough to make a mistake on the crimping, which I was thankful for. Unlike the standard pieces you will find at other retailers, these terminals had a nice, untarnished, tinned finish and a good tight fit that made me feel comfortable that they would not come loose; even under loud, extended playing sessions. Personally, I would have preferred the ones with full insulation and a shrink fitting, but they still worked fine for me and they were free.
Pros: Good materials used in manufacturing Tight fit on spades
Cons: Not fully insulated Insulation not shrinkable
Not bad, but none of the connectors got the new speakers well. I had to "re shape" them to either be tighter or more loose. Not the best for soldering connections, either.
Pros: Easier to install speakers to harness
Cons: Need to all be closer to tolerance of speaker connections
I could not find the correct size connectors at two other retail stores. These were perfect.
Pros: Connectors fit hard to find size. Price.
Cons: None.
good terminals
This set comes with 4 pairs of differently-sized disconnects, so you should have enough to install any pair of speakers with just one small (and inexpensive) set.
Pros: Price, different sizes
Cons: None
They function as intended! Gosh, what a world! My wife was a bit concerned when she head me yell "Yeah, baby! I like the way you slide!" from the garage, but once she saw the tight gripe these babies had on the wiring adapter and how quick and easy these females slide; she climbed right into the trunk with me to watch these babies work!
Pros: Tight connection. Easy to crimp without being easy to break. They function as intended.
Cons: None.
Just like the pros when you have the right tools and parts. Good quick install.
Pros: Good professional looking job when using the right tools with the quick slides.
Cons: No cons unless you don't have the right tools to put the quick slides on. You can stand the chance of not having a good connection if not installed correctly.
These slides made speaker connection a snap. Good quality and great value!
as they should be
What can be said about them? They're slides. They work.
Pros: They work.
Cons: None that I know of. They can probably found cheaper at your local hardware store, but I didn't do a price comparison.
The slides worked great and made installation really easy. No complaints!
Decent basic parts
Pros: convienent
Saved my butt
Very useful to have around when you need a perfect speaker terminal fit for something other than the standard "large" size. If your speakers aren't going to include the factory harness connectors, order some of these. These can be very snug, but you want a secure connection. Be sure to not to push them on at an "up and down" angle, you can bend or break off the speaker terminals. A little side to side wiggling can be helpful to open these up a little bit for installation, if they don't seem to want to go on the speaker terminal.
Pros: Proper fit.
Cons: Use care when connecting the small ones.
Does the job, works well.
Product came with all contents in the description and fit my new speakers perfectly. No complaints at all.
Good fit , will use elsewhere on truck .
Pros: work well
Cons: none
They are what they are but the bag only came with 4 or 5 pairs :/ I didn't need them and could have always used other connections that are more economical.
Pros: They are what they are and functional.
Cons: cost. no value here
If you're putting in new speakers, and haven't yet removed your factory speakers. I'd order these; it's very probable your existing female terminals from the factory wiring won't fit your new after-market speakers' male terminals.
I didn't know these were part of the deal, but the dude said "here, you may need these too." I didn't for this install, but I will in the future - guaranteed.
These are junk. They bend when installed onto the speaker terminal and loose the tension they are supposed to have to stay connected. Fortunately I have a wide assortment of terminals and it did not require a trip to the store.
Pros: Great for filling a trash can
Cons: Horrible for use as a terminal.
Good connector. Just make sure your wire is where you need it before you crimp the connector you can't undo it.
Pros: Easy use
Cons: None that I experienced
Great crimps. Even used it for engine wire repair. Really keeps the moisture out.
Pros: Great Value
Cons: None
I was very happy to find these at Crutchfield's. The customer service folks are great, very knowledgable and a pleasure to work with on all my projects. Crutchfield is always one of my 'Go-To' companies when I start a new install or upgrade.
Pros: Fast shipping They always give extra effort when complications come up. Good prices Cutting edge products
Cons: ??None
Nice to have a variety of spade connectors. Saved me from running around looking for the right ones.
Pros: Perfect
Cons: None
Order online and had in hand two days later. Installation was a breeze. The connectors were clearly marked for wire sizes. I would definitely order again.
These are a very good thing to have around if you are doing your own car audio installation. Most people that do any kind of electronics will have these around, but if you don't, grab a pack or two. They are inexpensive, and very good quality. They hold tight onto wire, and fit very snug onto the speakers. In fact, that is my biggest praise and largest complaint about these simultaneously. I hate having ones that slip off of the speaker tabs (especially when you have to take your door apart to get to them) but these fit so tight that when I initially tried to install them, I bent the speaker tabs. all in all, great thing to have around. Just be careful with your speakers!
Pros: Very high quality, fit very snug
Cons: fit almost too snug! be careful!
This was my first speaker install. I didn't know what I was doing. I spoke with a Crutchfield rep about things I needed to install some speakers. They gladly showed me these and told me that they'd really help make a solid connection. These work as well as they are described. Simple, reliable connection.
Pros: Cheap, High quality
Cons: None
They are exactly like the ones you can get from the store. I don't get a lot of time to drive around picking up extra install pieces so I just ordered them with my speakers.
Pros: Work just fine
Cons: A little more expensive than the store but you are paying for delivery basically.
These worked just fine. They pushed on and held firmly.
Pros: Worked
Cons: none

Equipment I needed for my install. [ JEROME J May 20, 2016 ]
I picked this up because I plan to rewire my speakers from a new amp to the speakers themselves. I can wire directly into the amp, but I don't want to solder the wire onto the speaker terminals, so I bought these connectors. This will allow me to swap the speakers out more easily at a later date if I choose. [ Joseph May 20, 2016 ]
Read that connectors did not come with the speakers so picked these up to make the installation easier. [ Bill May 18, 2016 ]

I need to cut the factory harness from my bose speakers off and I refuse to merely twist my wires onto these speakers [ josh May 04, 2016 ]
When I was reading reviews for bass blockers I noticed the only complaint was the blocker wouldn't always connect to new or existing speakers due to the varying sizes of connecters...I followed the advise given and purchased these metra female quick slides so I would have no problems with installation. [ Arthur May 01, 2016 ]
Make installation easier [ john Apr 29, 2016 ]
Years ago, I bought a pair of Alpine SPS-69C2 speakers through Crutchfield as an upgrade to the rear stock speakers in my 2005 Nissan Altima. One of the female disconnect terminals that came with the Alpine speakers broke, and it was a size ( .205" ) that I could not find at the local auto parts and electronics stores. The .205" quick disconnect was available on Amazon, but it was more expensive. So I bought this kit for that connector. [ Dinesh Apr 25, 2016 ]

I chose this set of speakers due to the brand names I'm accustomed to and their reliability along with the price seems right for these i assume amazing speakers [ Alexis Jan 27, 2016 ]
I am running new speaker wire to new door speakers. I wanted the new larger gauge wire going directly to the terminal. Even though the new after market speakers come with terminal leads, the gauge wire on them is much smaller than what I am running. Didn't want a bottleneck, these disconnects prevent that and are user friendly. [ Nathaniel Jan 25, 2016 ]

should make the instalation easy [ RUDY Dec 09, 2015 ]
My 6x9 speakers each have TWO different size Male Tabs / Lug / Spades / Disconnects on them, for positive and negative. I have done every search humanly possible using ALL the names that these things have (and even looked in a local electronics store) and found that this is the ONLY true variety pack of different sizes that are useful for speakers... which is going to be extremely helpful, since it's almost impossible to get a good fit otherwise. AND they seem to be a good quality for a good price. [ Jeff Dec 09, 2015 ]
Thanks for your question. There is a total of 10. I've attached the 4 sizes below. You can find this information on the main product page under "Product Highlights" and "What's in the Box". Hope this helps. Four 0.250" female quick slides with blue plastic insulators Two 0.205" female quick slides with blue plastic insulators Two 0.187" female quick slides with blue plastic insulators Two 0.110" female quick slides with blue plastic insulators. [ Kenny Jan 12, 2017 ] Staff
Terminl male connectors are usually flat .250 some are .125 for negative but positive is most of the time .250. Be sure to match the wire size to the connectors. The come 22-18 / 16-14 / 12-10 [ Joseph Mar 26, 2017 ]
This product is. It's female, so you put the male part in this. This product is for regular door speakers. Here's a tip, put this product on YouTube and see what and how it works. It's a great piece of wiring engineering. [ MARCELO Sep 24, 2015 ]
yes cut and crinp looks like [ DANIEL Jun 29, 2015 ]
No. Went into my F250 [ JACK Jun 28, 2015 ]
No...fits up to factory harness [ CORY Jun 28, 2015 ]
14 gage yes... not sure of 10 gage. [ Gary Feb 09, 2015 ]
14 will probably slide right in. 10 you might have to cut down a bit, but if this is your connection, then you shouldn't have an issue if you make sure you're getting as much of the copper in there as will fit. [ the welder Feb 05, 2015 ]
Hey, Jonte - I purchased these a few months bac and used them with 12 gauge wire, the stick wires on my cars wiring was 16 - they fit fine on those. Just make sure to use a crimp tool of sorts. Also, I installed them on Polk audio speakers and they fit those terminals nice and snug, no worries about a possible loss of connection or anything of the sort. Hope your install goes well - I'd recommend these. [ JEFFERSON Jun 13, 2014 ]
Hi, I bought these and the package had 3 sizes for different terminals, pos & neg. I think I used them for 16 guage & 18 guage wire, but I don't remember. [ BARRETT Jun 12, 2014 ]

Extras Make Red's Silence Worthwhile
- Kevan Breitinger CMCentral.com
- 2007 7 Dec
Artist: Red
Title: End of Silence Deluxe Edition
Label: Essential Records
I see the proliferation of deluxe edition albums as a bit of a mixed bag, to tell the truth. Previous buyers feel beat, and the projects don't always seem to warrant a bonus release. This is not one of 'em, though. The initial album was spectacular on its own, and Essential was wise to leave it untouched. Why mess with success, and by success, I mean raw intelligence, expressive creativity, and thoughtful attention to detail. The satisfying DVD package here features an hour of overall content.
The complex sound of Red is as evocative and potent as their fiery name implies, shrewdly mixing ambience and aggression into a thick sonic stew that grabs you by the throat. The focus of the DVD is the seven-song concert, filmed in Nashville for "Red Nation," the band's rabid online fans, and captured well in high quality video and pristine audio. The blistering concert is enhanced by restrained video effects that still manage to retain as much of the "live" feel as possible. The tracks covered in concert footage include thundering wailer "Wasting Time," a moving acoustic rendition of "Pieces," and the snarling "Hide," as well as new radio single "Let Go." Front-man Michael Barnes rides the waves of blistering alt-rock like he was born to it, pouring a desperate passion into the teeth-baring closer, "Breathe into Me."
Special Features on the DVD include: the "Breathe into Me" music video, a brief, behind-the-scenes documentary (and by brief I mean seven minutes, count 'em), a Photo Montage set to a studio track, and some fun tour videos from the road. In the end, you have to judge for yourself the value of the Deluxe Edition. Personally, I'm not wild about them, but this one won't disappoint you.

In response to requests from Plumbing Manufacturers Intl. (PMI) and its members, as well as from other supporters of the U.S....
In response to complaints that small rural communities cannot afford to comply with new standards, the U.S. EPA is proposing to allow higher levels of contaminants such as arsenic in drinking water, the Washington Post reported. The proposal would allow systems serving 10,000 or fewer residents to have three times the level of contaminants allowed under new regulations.
About 50 million people live in communities that would be affected by the proposed change. In the case of arsenic, as many as 10 million Americans are drinking water that does not meet the new federal standards, according to the EPA.
Benjamin H. Grumbles, assistant administrator for EPA's Office of Water, said the agency was trying to satisfy Congress, which, in 1996, instructed the EPA to take into account that it costs small rural towns proportionately more to meet federal drinking water standards.
"We're taking the position both public health protection and affordability can be achieved together," Grumbles said in an interview this week. "When you're looking at small communities, oftentimes they cannot comply with the [current] standard."
On the other hand, Erik Olson, a senior lawyer for the Natural Resources Defense Council, called the move a broad attack on public health.
"It could have serious impacts on people's health, not just in small-town America," Olson said. "It is like overturning the whole apple cart on this program."
The proposed revision was unveiled in early March in the Federal Register and is subject to public comment until May 1. EPA's new proposal would permit arsenic levels of as much as 30 ppb in some communities' drinking water.
Under the Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1996, complying with federal drinking water standards is not supposed to cost water systems more than 2.5% of the median U.S. household income, which in 2004 was $44,684, per household served. That means meeting these standards should not cost more than $1,117 per household. Under EPA's proposal, drinking water compliance could not cost more than $335 per household.
Some public officials and environmental experts said they worry it could lead to broad exemptions from the current federal contaminant standards cities and larger towns must also meet. Besides arsenic, other water contaminants including radon and lead pose a health threat in some communities.
James Taft, executive director of the Association of State Drinking Water Administrators, said he and others are concerned that the less stringent standard will "become the rule, rather than the exception" if larger communities press for similar relief.
Avner Vengosh, a geochemistry and hydrology professor at Duke University's Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences, said he was surprised by the administration's proposal because North Carolina officials are trying to keep arsenic levels as low as 2 ppb.
"It's a bit ironic you have this loosening in the EPA standard when local authorities are making it more stringent," Vengosh said, adding that many rural residents "have no clue what they have in the water."
National Rural Water Association analyst Mike Keegan, who backs the administration's proposal, said the current rule is based on what contaminant levels are economically and technically feasible, rather than what is essential to preserve public health.
The administration may face a fight on Capitol Hill over the proposal. Rep. Henry A. Waxman (D-Calif.), who helped write the 1996 law, said EPA's proposal, "if finalized, would allow weakened drinking water standards, not just in rural areas, but in the majority of drinking water systems in the U.S."

Well, how do you like them apples?
By the looks of this suddenly scraggly A-lister, it seems like the economic downturn didn't discriminate—fortunately, this Hollywood golden boy man was only getting into character as a no doubt hilarity-inducing homeless man on the streets of New York City this week.
Can't wait to see the fruits of this funny labor. Luckily, we won't have to wait long. So, who's the incognito star?

It's Matt Damon!
While ordinarily groomed to perfection, the Oscar winner was spotted grunged-out on the streets of NYC this week, when he was filming a digital short set to air on Saturday Night Live this weekend.
Joining him, and appearing somewhat unrecognizable in their own way, was upcoming host Katy Perry and Andy Samberg.
Bring on the laughs, Matt! And then, please, take a shower.

Anadigics meet guidance but posts loss
Post a comment
MANHASSET, N.Y. Anadigics Inc. recorded a net loss of $11.7 million on revenue of $22.7 million in the second quarter, up 7% sequentially from the previous quarter vs. guidance of a 5% increase. In the year-ago quarter, the Warren, N.J. supplier of wireless and broadband devices posted a net loss of $13.7 million on sales of $18.0 million.
The second-quarter loss includes $0.8 million of costs associated with a workforce reduction and closure of a design facility.
Broadband revenue rose 23% sequentially and 35% year-over-year to $12.2 million, while wireless revenue was $10.5 million, down 7% sequentially but 17% higher than a year ago as customers experienced CDMA component shortages.
For the third quarter, Anadigics expects revenue to increase 6 to 12% sequentially as handset shipments for the holiday season begin in September.

misfire problems. pls help!
I have a 2003 Jeep Liberty 6cyl 3.7. It starts to misfire while going up hills on the highway (usually around 60mph or higher but has misfired just giving it too much gas going uphill at lower speeds). We would have to pull over, turn the car off, restart the car and it seemed fine until we again gave it too much gas going uphill again. We took it to auto zone to have them diagnose. Originally, it showed a misfire in cylinder 6. So I changed the spark plug and coil pack for #6 but it continued to misfire the same way. The father in law said it sounded like the fuel pump or fuel filter so they had both replaced. Car seemed to work fine for a few weeks (and I try not to push it hard up hills. plus turn the overdrive off going up hills seems to help a little) but began to misfire again. Again, we had to pull over, turn the car off, restart and everything seems fine. We have been taking it very easy (or as easy as I can when I have to drive 100 miles a day for work on a highway with lots of hills) and the engine light has remained on for the last month but no misfires until today. So we took it to auto zone and now its coming up with misfire in 6 & 3. Again, all we had to do is pull over, turn off the car, restart and it seems fine if we take it easy. So the spark plug & coil pack for #6 has been replaced along with the fuel pump and fuel filter, oil change/lube job was done recently, ive tried the injector cleaner that you add into the gas and I always use regular unleaded gas. When the fuel pump and fuel filter was replaced, the replaced the radiator since it was leaking. Recently getting an oil change and lube job, we were told we also have a small leak in the front differential. Also, throughout this entire thing, it has also popped up with a code for random misfire and something potentially having to do with the timing chain (cant remember what code that was though). Any ideas? I tried to provide as much info as possible. Please let me know if you need anything else.
I may not be the coils or plugs, check the cylinder by doing a compression test to see if it internal problem.
You can perform a vacuum test to test the intake gasket and the erg.
Here is what a misfire all can be.
ASD relay output circuit to the ignition coil or injector has high resistance
Base engine mechanical problem that affects multiple cylinders
Check for air leaks in the Air Intake system
Check for air leaks in the EGR system and in its related hoses and/or valve
Check for air leaks in the PCV system and in its related hoses and/or valve
Erratic or interrupted CKP or CMP sensor signals
Fuel delivery component fault that affects two or more cylinders (e.g., a dirty, contaminated or sticking fuel injector, fuel filter clogged, low fuel pressure)
Ignition system problem (coil, spark plug or boot) in two or more cylinders
Vehicle driven with low fuel pressure or while very low on fuel
Please let me know if I can be more assistance to you.
I recently ran into a similar problem with a GM 5.3L. Turns out I had water in the fuel rail. It would collect in the rear going up hills a cause misfires. Pulled the tank a found a couple of pints of water. Good luck!!

A description for the Portrait of Mr Richardson, Headmaster of Wynberg Boys' High School
Medium: Acrylic on Canvas
Size: 900mm (h) x 600mm (w)
Artist: Ryan van der Vyver
I'll start firstly by expressing my gratitude for the opportunity to do this artwork. As a past pupil and a proud Wynberg Old Boy, I feel extremely honoured and privileged to have been appointed to capture both, the 'essence' of Mr Richardson's bright, positive personality and the many achievements he has made during his tenure as Headmaster of this great school. As I'm sure you may all agree that to capture all his achievements in one artwork was a challenging task.
Hockey and Cricket have been two of Keith's passions at Wynberg and he has done so much for both these sports. His involvement in the development of the astroturf facilities is just one of these great achievements. The introduction of the second astro and the installation of flood lights to these facilities are achievements that are particularly dear to his heart and was an extremely difficult project to turn into reality. His sheer determination and passion helped to make these projects a reality and has since become a great asset to the school that will benefit many generations of pupils to come. It was therefore fitting that this would be the backdrop to his portrait and stands as a testament of his love for his pupils, passion and determination to ensure that Wynberg boys receive only the best education both in the classroom and on the sports field.
Although the astro may be one of the most 'visible' accomplishments of Keith's tenure, it is the structures that he installed into the classroom environment through the means of the House and Tutor system that form the most important achievement of his tenure. This system will continue to produce healthy senior – junior relationships and in so doing produce mentors, role models and heroes to which each pupil can aspire. The symbolism for this incredible infrastructure is represented in the subtleness of the background by means of each house flag that has been displayed on the boundary wall of the astro turf.
Mr Richardson leaves Wynberg having progressed and advanced the work of all those who came before him. His hard work, determination and passion have ensured the continued success of Wynberg Boys High School as it moves into its 175th year in its history. The artwork acknowledges that point in the history of the school in the fine detail on his tie, just above the school emblem. The colours are bright, vibrant and his pose is positive to reflect the essence of his character, his love for people and for Wynberg Boys High School.
Thank you Mr Richardson.

Machel confident of sweeping Soca Monarch 2013
It's going to be a "fogging, floating Friday." That is how defending Groovy and Power Soca Monarch champion Machel Montano described how he intends to transform the atmosphere at the National Stadium come February 8.
Montano was his usual high energy self in a visit to the Guardian Media Ltd office last week, when he spoke with the T&T Guardian and did an interview with Vibe City 105.1FM's Chris Boynes.
The 2012 Monarch is adamant he has no competition at this year's Digicel International Soca Monarch competitions. He views the return of soca veteran and former five time soca monarch winner Austin "Super Blue" Lyons as merely the student (himself) taking on the Master (Super Blue). Montano said it is a competition and he intends to pull out all the stops.
"I have a lot of respect for Super. I remember as a child I knew I always wanted to do music but I was more focused on reggae and R&B until I saw Super Blue during a performance at Spectacular Forum throwing the microphone from hand to hand and moving his feet the way he does, that is when I really fell in love with soca music," he said.
He said his team remained focused despite the recent challenges he and his band, the "HD family" have faced. "It's not just Machel going in there it's Kernal (Roberts), the writers, the band members—everybody…it's a team."
Montano noted the competition is just 35 per cent of the HD family's season as their main focus is first creating a great album.
The 38-year-old, who is known to be big on collaborations—having recorded several songs alongside many local, regional and international artistes—has really pushed the envelope this year as he ventured to South Africa to work with the celebrated all-male group, Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
Montano described the collaboration as an epic experience.
"Working with Ladysmith Black Mambazo was a real achievement for me because the collaboration was really the group's introduction to the world of soca. "They did not even know where T&T was, much less about the culture."
He said it was his idea to work with the group.
"Kerwin (Dubois) sent me a song and when I listened to it I immediately heard their voices. I told him and we contacted their management," said Montano.
"Within days they responded and the next thing I know we were on a plane to Africa."
He said a full documentary was made on himself and the group doing the actual recording.
The song which is titled Possessed was released three weeks ago and is already a favourite among soca lovers.
He disclosed a collaboration was also done with American R&B Soul group Boyz II Men. The track was supposed to be released for Carnival but Montano and his team decided to hold it back because the season is so short.
The multiple Road March title holder who will be celebrating 31 years in the industry this year, said his mission has always been to showcase a Michael Jackson type show in the middle of Carnival where people can feel the music, culture and technology coming together to create a monster presentation.
He said he was happy Caribbean Prestige Foundation had the foresight to create such a forum where that kind of dream can become a reality.
The busy-bodied artiste said his plate is so full this season he thinks his next move will be to clone himself.
So far this year, he has released several songs including She Ready, Drinking Rum (on the Paradise Riddim), Indian Gyal with Chutney singer Drupatee Ramgoonai, The Fog, Possessed and Float.
Montano will defend his groovy title singing Fog and will hope to remain the monarch in the power category with Float.
"It is going to be a fogging, floating Friday," he reiterated.
"I put in what I intend to get out. This time when I say hover, I will show what floating is—nothing keeping we down!"
• To vote for Montano in the Power Soca category text MMHD to 7622 and in the Groovy Soca category, text MMHD to 4768.

LOS ANGELES - Travis Wilson has five offers but the San Clemente, Calif., pro-style quarterback doesn't want to name favorites until he takes some unofficial visits which starts Monday with trips to Washington, Utah and Colorado.
Arizona State and Iowa State have also offered Wilson, a 6-foot-6, 205-pound prospect who was one of the top quarterbacks at Sunday's Los Angeles NIKE Camp.
"I don't really have any favorites right now," Wilson said.
Article Continues Below
"I'm going to look at Washington, Utah and Colorado. I start on Monday so I'm going to look at those schools first. I just want to see what's going on, what they provide and their academics."
In his junior season, Wilson threw for 2,031 yards with 12 touchdowns and seven interceptions and also rushed for four scores. He's tall and has a powerful arm and so recruiting has picked up in recent months.
Although no clear leaders have emerged, Wilson said Utah is sticking out just a little bit mainly because offensive coordinator Norm Chow has had such success in his coaching career with quarterbacks.
"I think Norm Chow sticks out a lot," Wilson said. "He's been a really good quarterback coach so that's important. Definitely getting an offer from them has been a huge compliment."
But Wilson wants to take visits before saying any school has his attention more than the others.
"I definitely want to see what's going on," he said. "I want to see all the campuses and get a vibe from each one."

ARCATA -- Every season the Jacks log plenty of travel miles. But this season, they'll be doing so even before the conference portion of their schedule gets underway.
After adding an exhibition game with St. John's University to its 2013-14 schedule, the Humboldt State men's basketball team has added another Division I power -- the University of California. The Jacks and Golden Bears will face off on Halloween at Haas Pavilion in Berkeley.
"It makes for a special trip for all these freshman we have coming in," HSU head coach Steve Kinder said. "Any chance you can get to get a D-I trip is special. As a program, we've never been east of North Dakota before."
But the road trip won't end in the Big Apple.
Following their game in New York, the Jacks won't immediately return home to Humboldt County. Instead, they will travel to San Rafael and open the regular season on Nov. 8 and 9 against Dominican University and Academy of Art in the California Collegiate Athletic Associaion/Pac West Conference Challenge.
"It's going to be an 11-day road trip for us. It's going to be a team bonding trip -- and that will be huge with so many new faces," Kinder said. "Fact is we're going to be challenged by some very good competition. In every matchup, we're going to be not as long, not as tall as our opposition. It's going to be important to understand the reality of the game and what it's there for."
The Jack's week-plus road trip will start against a Cal squad (21-12 overall in 2012-13) that finished tied for second place in the Pac-12 with a 12-6 record and made it to the round of 32 in the NCAA tournament a season ago.
How did the game in Berkeley come about?
Simple persistence, according to Kinder.
"With (Cal head coach Mike Montgomery), I've been like a little mosquito that's pestered him the last four or five years," Kinder said. "Every time I saw him, I always said Humboldt State would love to come down for an exhibition game -- and he finally gave in. It's just being very persistent and developing relationships with others in the game."
The same can be said for Humboldt's game with St. John's, which Kinder said materialized into a reality in a hotel lobby during the coaches convention at the Final Four in Atlanta this past April.
"(St. John's head coach Steve Lavin) and I have a long friendship that goes back to when we were both players in college," Kinder said. "We got to know each other then and kept in contact through the years."
When they do take the court, the mission for Kinder and the Jacks -- who missed out on the CCAA tournament for the first time since Kinder took over as head coach three years ago -- during the exhibition and non-conference portion of their schedule is simple.
"What I want to do this year is establish roles early," Kinder said. "I'm going to let them know and communication is going to be wide open to where they rank. I'm going to let them know where they stand week to week."

|Cary Regional Capsule
|USA Baseball National Training Complex, Cary, N.C.
|No. 1 North Carolina (46-12)
|23rd appearance, at-large, third place in Atlantic Coast Conference, No. 2 national seed
|No. 2 UNC Wilmington (42-15-1)
|Fourth appearance, at-large, Colonial Athletic Association regular-season champion
|No. 3 Elon (43-16)
|Third appearance, automatic, Southern Conference regular-season and tournament champion
|No. 4 Mount St. Mary's (21-32)
|First appearance, automatic, Northeast Conference tournament champion
North Carolina has reached the brink of the national title each of the last two years and is one of the favorites to finally break through and take home the hardware this year. The Tar Heels have seniors who played key roles on each of their last two College World Series teams in center fielder Seth Williams (.308/.430/.513) and third baseman Chad Flack (.291/.365/.449), the latter of whom is UNC's career hits leader and primary purveyor of gigantic hits, including go-ahead homers in the decisive game of each of the last two super-regionals. But the strength of the offense is a trio of sophomores, all of whom were also central figures on last year's Omaha team: first baseman Dustin Ackley (.399/.497/.588), outfielder Tim Fedroff (.383/.448/.634 with 17 homers and 59 RBIs) and second baseman Kyle Seager (.365/.426/.627 with 67 RBIs). The lineup is full of players with experience playing on college baseball's grandest stage, and the Tar Heels always have confidence to come from behind. Of course, their pitching staff leads the nation in ERA (2.73), strikeouts per nine innings (10.3) and fewest hits allowed per nine innings (7.46), so coming from behind is often not necessary. The deep staff is led by the power right arms of Alex White (8-3, 2.86) and Matt Harvey (7-2, 2.50), and the bullpen has a proven stopper in senior righty Rob Wooten (5-2, 1.82 with three saves). The pitching staff is even better in the spacious confines of UNC's temporary home in Cary while Boshamer Stadium gets rebuilt.
UNC Wilmington dominated the CAA's regular season on the strength of its power bats and power arms. The Seahawks slugged 91 home runs, ninth-most in the nation, with senior catcher Mark Carver (.353 with 21 homers and 79 RBIs) and senior second baseman Daniel Hargrave (.336 with 18 homers and 60 RBIs) leading the way. But the spacious ballpark in Cary suppresses power and puts a premium on pitching and defense, where the Seahawks are inconsistent (their .960 fielding percentage ranks eighth in the CAA and 161st in the nation). Wilmington ace righthander Bradley Holt (10-1, 3.30) might have the biggest arm in the regional full of big arms, with a fastball that touches 97 mph. But the key for the Seahawks will be getting quality outings from their other two starters: righthanders Jeff Hatcher (6-1, 4.47) and Seth Frankoff (5-2, 5.20).
|The USA Baseball Training Complex plays perfectly to the strengths of Elon, which won the SoCon largely on the merits of its team speed. The Phoenix rank second in the nation with 152 stolen bases, and four Elon players racked up 20 or more steals, led by junior center fielder Chris Dove's 38. That isn't to say Elon's offense is punchless—juniors Cory Harrilchack (.428/.507/.711 with 11 homers and 45 RBIs) and Bennett Davis (.346/.467/.649 with 17 homers and 79 RBIs) headline a formidable core of the lineup capable of punishing mistakes. In righthander Steven Hensley (10-1, 3.34), the Phoenix have a power-armed ace capable of matching UNCW's Bradley Holt in the opener, but the staff is fairly thin after that.
Mount St. Mary's finished fourth in the NEC's regular-season standings with a 13-11 record but won four straight elimination games in the conference tournament—including two against league favorite Monmouth—after dropping its tournament opener against the Hawks. The Mountaineers are making their first-ever regional appearance against the two-time national runner-up, and they must be considered one of the tournament's longest shots to win a game this weekend. The Mountaineers' greatest weapon is senior first baseman Josh Vittek (.366/.410/.717 with 19 homers and 62 RBIs), who hold's the school's career home run record and the NEC's single-season home run mark. Vittek carried Mount St. Mary's to the NEC title by going 4-for-4 with a homer and a tournament-record six RBIs in the clincher against Monmouth. Vittek has some protection in senior outfielder Ryan Murray, who hit 10 home runs this year, including four immediately following Vittek blasts.

A crusading fortnightly journal last month exposed the derelictions of John Ashcraft, director of the West Virginia department of mines. Ashcraft, the magazine alleged, gentled mammoth coal companies with only token fines for safety violations, while at the same tune violating the law himself by failing to meet the required minimum qualifications for a mine safety inspector. As a result, a committee of the West Virginia state senate will decide this week whether to recommend Ashcraft's impeachment. The aggressive publication that dug out these facts is hardly a national name, though among the miners of Appalachia and labor experts across the...

Huntsman name-checks his daughters
Jon Huntsman got the mob scene treatment that Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney also received at the Webster School polling site in Manchester just now.
Surrounded by one of the largest press scrums he's seen since his early days in the race, Huntsman seemed relaxed and pleased with the turnout - and offered a shout-out to his daughters, the ubiquitous "Jon 2012 girls" who have become YouTube celebrities, as strong surrogates.
He noted that other candidates - Mitt Romney perhaps? - roll out lists of high-profile surrogates, but, he said, "I just have my girls."

Obama Sunday
Barack Obama arrived in Washington D.C. today. At the airport he was greeted by throngs of journalists laying palm fronds across his path and singing "Hosanna in the highest!" The cry caused the nearby baggage shepherds to ask, what's all the ruckus? And the answer was, "The Obama has come! Make way for The Obama!"
It's expected that tomorrow Obama will visit the Capitol to overturn a few desks and give his "Den of Thieves" speech.

Such an ironic title.
For the music of Visions is heard, felt, sensed. Certainly not seen.
That's not to say, however, that it can't be visualized.
But then, the deeper meaning of the word "visions" (note that the song title and the CD title suggest not one, but at least two or several sightings) involves comprehension of a thing that can't be seen.
Things like beauty, spirits, wisdom and art.
And so, Visions offers vision.
Australian pianist Mark Isaacs, who enraptured listeners with his last CD the sometimes ebullient Keeping the Standards establishes dramatic contrast between the successive recordings.
So much so that Visions and Keeping the Standards could have been conceived and performed by two different artists, had the listener not known any better from reading the name, yes, "Mark Isaacs," on both CD covers.
Keeping the Standards lets the listener know that Isaacs is in full command of the keyboard, with splendid technical facility, imaginative re-phrasings of well-known melodies and an irrepressible buoyancy on which much of the music floats with varying degrees of rippling rapidity.
However, something dark this way comes on Visions.
Whether the follow-up album is the result of a drastic change of personal circumstances or an artistic statement arising from Isaacs's long-simmering interest in the moods revealed on Visions, no matter.
Isaacs's trio inhabits a more subdued, more meditative space on Visions. Moreover, its playing is a model of restraint. Isaacs's intention was to set up his favored songs from the 1960s and 1970s as glowing, glimmering jewels, wordless but speaking to the listener through the evocation of under-the-surface feelings as the songs are recorded.
The most appropriate song for Visions is "Moon River," a perfect merging of wistfulness and musical execution. Singable, uncomplicated in form, yet unforgettable once it's heard, "Moon River" allows Isaacs to follow the song's path without excessive elaboration as he revels in the strength of the melody itself.
The other songs of Visions, though, require some reworking of the harmonic structures, consistent with the original songs' to be sure, but with broader chords or more complex modulations. "Both Sides Now," never a rousing number in its original form to the extent of making audiences jump to their feet and clap hands and dance, slows to an even more ruminative tempo for consideration of the song's shadier recesses as Isaacs refuses to resolve the final chord for a seemingly interminable length of time before the repeat. "Visions" itself extends Stevie Wonder's original introduction throughout the length of the song as Isaacs slows the rhythm for wondrous consideration of harmonic possibilities, subtly twisting the conventional chords into dark visions of quietude mixed with meditative solitude.
Isaacs has teamed with a bassist, Ben Waples, and a drummer, James Hauptmann, who share his concept of music's ability to reach listeners' inner depths of emotion. Waples characterizes the songs with his sinewy patterns, softly expressed yet firmly rooted. And Hauptmann embellishes the clarity of Isaacs's articulation and sensitivity of touch with, not so much percussive force, as broadening spectrums of colors.
Mark Isaacs's Visions, while acknowledging the melodic appeal of the music of a generation ago long enough for the songs to be called standards has created his own statement of inner peace reinforced by the music he sees with insight and fondness.
