I am still on a quest to find label laminating material that will hold up to engine compartment heat. Bring your car to FFT'11 (Alexandria VA) and I'll swap out your lid for the latest candidate.

When did Martin say anything of the sort? You do what makes you happy, even if it's pointless. You go on about the size of wires being inadequate, but have you measured the current carried by them and the resistance of them? (I know you like to measure resistance).Quote:

Apparently Martin's ongoing attacks on my car are not tangential, for moderators are perfectly content to leave them in place.
(and now Martin is facing an identity crisis due to speaking about himself in the third person :what_the:)
I clearly said "in my opinion" -- twice. There is absolutely nothing you can do to police American opinion (you nice British people tried that already in the late 1700's, and yet again about 40 years later -- it doesn't work).Quote:

I have to admit this made me laugh. There were no "Americans" until after the Crown accepted that the colonies were lost. I have an "American" penny from 1775 -- guess whose head is on it. ;)Quote:

Saying something really doesn't make it true, you know... And I think the guys in Norther Ireland might have something to say about being called "English".
The poor people in Ireland were relegated to building crap the English designed.
The only decent engineering on the car was done in the factory itself (integrated door pulls, rear fascia reinforcement, etc). The remainder of the vehicle is nothing more than warmed over substandard Lotus (English) garbage.
In my opinion.

You'll have to qualify that statement a bit better before people'll accept it as more than just a warmed over substandard attempt to troll. It's quite pathetic really.:nono:Quote:

Today my RPM relay decided to quit working while I was driving home from work. I was able to jumper pins 87 and 30 in order to get home but the fuel pump always runs when jumpered, even with the key removed.
On the old forum I seem to remember Bill talking about bypassing the RMP relay completely for reliability. I was considering leaving the connector jumpered but obviously I can't do that since it keeps pumping even when I remove the key from the ignition.
Does anyone know what trick he does to get it to stop pumping? I am guessing I could just run a keyed 12v wire directly to the pump.
There is a keyed 12v at the RPM relay already.
