Err, and perhaps a can of petrol wouldn't be a bad idea. Dumb ass, why didn't I think of that earlier?

a can of petrol wouldn't be very helpful in getting the petrol cap off

but it wouldn't have been a bad idea to buy one while you were at the petrol station mind you

strangely enough,I have a complete motor /mechanism/glass etc available

Adam you are just Mr Wonderful today aren't you

I have a used one here ,good nick,£50

canI have your phone number please mate?

just ordered from toyota but they're not placing the order until monday morning.

Has it been removed properly or has heat been used?

please gimme your number or ring me on 07766 087 677!!

does it make any difference Carl0s being a UK TT??

EPC suggests it's for all 2JZ JZA80 Supras. Guess we'll know when Superman-Howard tries to fit it

it's nice when you know someone is good at what they do

pulley ordered at a cost of £177 + vat -"a bit of a discount" (probably a measely 10%) so perhaps £160+vat.

My next visit after Tescos was going to be one of my suppliers to buy a network IP Camera for £140 + vat to have a play with. So glad I didn't buy that now!!

thanks Nic! Part ordered. Looks like I'm driving the 1990 1.4L Ford Orion until the end of next week This thing has:

an 8-valve 1.4litre engine

with manual choke

drum brakes all round (i think)

and a clutch that barks when you pull off!!

oh and no radio

sorry '94! It's the crank pulley dampner.

I think the part number is 13407-46020 but I'd appreciate if you could confirm!

TT Auto!

thanks Nic.

it does if it is the same for the non-turbo.

Mine is a 2JZ-GTE not a 2JZ-GE.

Does anybody have a part number for the crank pulley?

It needs a new damper pulley assembly. You most definitely can NOT just Loctite it back on....

got one in stock Chris?

thanks mate but no worries, we used a power-bar to hold the tensioner away and the belt is off now

thanks for your help.

it's looking that way!

can i just glue / loctite the bastard back on?

It feels like a tight press-fit so I should hope it would be okay.

My belt was actually running around the rubber !! the pulley was on it's way to flying off inside the engine bay :o eek. does this thing spin at full engine RPM?

I can see the pulley which comes off the tensioner arm, but how on earth do I loosen the tensioner itself? My belt has slipped off the main pulley so I need to loosen this.

please help!

SilverMachine you're a star. Thanks very much for ringing me to let me know and thanks Chris for the diagnosis. I just hope there's a simple reason why that pulley is out of alignment. I've been towed home now and am about to go spannery on it

http://www2.css-networks.com/belt.jpg

can anybody tell me if the belt is meant to be going round that pulley? Because it's actually in the collar inside of that pulley.

I'm in tescos carpark and my car as started making a loud squeaking noise which Chris Wilson says sounds definately like the belt slipping probably caused by one of the things ceasing. But looking in the bay i can see the belt isn't going round that pulley, although the pulley seems to be too far out anyway.

If anyone could txt-message me or ring me on 07766 087 677 with the answer I'D appreciate that, as I'm in tescos carpark using my mobile phone (9.6kbps GSM) to post this and it's sooooooo slow!

thanks for the info. I wasn't hyperventilating mind-you. It was a mental feeling in my head. really can't explain it, it's just like agitation amplified by a thousand.

i think i just experienced a panic attack. woke up and had a horrible feeling of highly-accelerated anxiety and worry. can't find a way to put into words this feeling accept that it's like hyper-anxiety or something. I think its gone now after sitting on the toilet for 30 seconds and then breathing into a screwed-up carrier bag for a couple of minutes.

Why do they say "breath into a paper-bag" and not just any kind of bag? Isn't the idea that you breath your expelled co2 and therefore slow yourself down through cutting your oxygen intake?

has anybody else every experienced this wierd horrible thing? I remember last time it happened I was sat on the doorstep at whatever time nearly crying saying 'please stop please stop".

On all three times (including this) that it's happened I think I have taken a benzodiazepine of some kind about an hour before whilst getting to sleep.

i think the Internet is bad. We could make quantum-history here and once this BBS closes down it will all be lost to mankind forever.

tbourner - well if you take your example of a car and look at it on an atomic level. To measure the car's position one way to do this would be to take a photo. Now for light to enter the camera you must have had light reflected off the car. The get light to reflect off the car you need to shine light on to it.... this is in effect firing billions of photons at the car which at an atomic level is causing a pressure on the panels of the car. This pressure no matter how minute is causing a force to act on the car's direction and position and by the time the light has entered the camera the car is in effect in a different position and more importantly in a different position to where it would have been if you were to have not shone any light in the car.

You have to visualise all this on a minute atomic level to see what I'm trying to get at. (Well it's not what I'm trying to get at.. its what is written down in physics books).

But in essence you have disturbed the car in both its position and its direction by taking a photo of it.

but the light was already reflecting off the car and was headed our way. we have just captured the light. If anything we might have stopped the light affecting something else, which we are in the path of. (ok, so maybe the guy behind us didn't get a suntan..)

I understand the idea though, just think it's flawed in that example.

If you want to look into it deeper have a read of in search of schrodingers cat and schrodingers kittens by John Gribbin.

The second book has lots of different possible theories currently being persued by theoretical physicists. Very interesting stuff.

I like the theories about how decisions are either made or predestined. Does the universe split into two when a decision has to made? Why does the observation of atomic reactions effect the outcome? Does particle wave duality really exist?

If it's possible to simulate the smallest atomic reactions, would it be possible to simulate an entire universe given big enough resources. Would it be possible to fast forward and rewind that simulation to predict the future and look into the past?

I'm reading the book and I'm up to page 60-someting (first book). Only reading a bit in bed. Soon as my eyes get heavy I let the sleep take over.

Anyway so far it's just talked about atoms and what not. Particles and waves. Does it go onto anything larger than this, or is it all about the theory miniscule stuff that's just a little too small to deal with?

all of the "tutorials available" are non-links, as are the 'Awards'.

I'd hazard a guess that it's just a gnutella2 or eDonkey or KAD client.

Go to http://www.emule-project.net and use that instead. Connect to Razorback 2 server.

in the process-view of task manager, go to View -> Select columns, and add the "Virtual Memory Size" counter.

See if that helps track down the greedy process.
