GunnersGaming by Betsson, Arsenal's Official Betting Partner, give us the rundown on some of the markets on offer ahead of Sunday's game against West Brom...
Sunday is the final day of the season and there is still so much at stake at the top and bottom of the league. Arsenal know that al three points are required at The Hawthorns if they want to guarantee Champions League football next season.
They did not manage that on their last visit to The Hawthorns, however, where they were held to a 2-2 draw having been 2-0 down with late goals from Andrey Arshavin and Robin van Persie rescuing a point. But they have only tasted defeat at West Brom once and that was back in 1973.
To add further spice to the match Roy Hodgson will be hoping to sign off in style in what is his final game before turning his attentions to England duties (don't forget to check out all our Euro 2012 markets).
The game also marks Arsène Wenger's 600th Premier League match in charge and he will use all of his experience to ensure that his side are prepared for what promises to be a tense final day of action.
After four games without a win it is no surprise that The Football Predictor gives the Gunners just a 40 per cent chance of securing the win (at 4/6). While that gives Arsenal the slight edge, The Predictor has 1-1 (at 5/1) as the most likely scoreline. That would leave Arsène Wenger's side relying on slip-ups from both Tottenham and Newcastle and in serious danger of missing out.
If Arsenal are to win, The Football Predictor recommends 1-0 as the most likely outcome and that is available at 6/1.
Robin van Persie will be hoping to guide his team over the line and the Dutchman is 5/2 to score that all-important first goal. Having scored in his last two games against the Baggies the captain may also fancy his chances of breaking the Premier League's all-time goalscoring record over a 38-game season. He is 7/2 to score more than 1.5 goals, which would be enough to take him past Cristiano Ronaldo and Alan Shearer's record.
GunnersGaming would like to wish the team all the best against WBA on Sunday. If you are new to GunnersGaming we are offering you a £2 free bet (no deposit required!)
With hundreds of different markets to choose from and unique Arsenal prizes to win, GunnersGaming is the Official Betting Partner of Arsenal.

|Reviews and Articles Discussion for Techgage content is located here. Only staff can create topics, but everyone is welcome to post.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
I've been using this card fairly heavily for about a year now so I thought I should jump in with a couple of my own observations.
1) While WinTv in an OK program and utilizes the functions of the card, I find you get a much better all around experience by using a real PVR application such as SageTV, Beyond TV, Windows MCE, MythTV, etc.
2) CPU usage will go down if you utilize the Hardware Decoder by connecting to a tv via Svideo instead of using local monitor playback. Using the decoder, my CPU usage sits at around 5% or so (which is essentially idle on my P4 2GHz system).
3) You can use this card on a much lowerend system than what it says on the box. I currently have this running under Linux (I wouldn't recommend it on this system in windows) on a P2 400MHz system with 320MB RAM. I can view it locally or on my tv (it's a little sluggish locally, but is great on my tv), and I have it streaming to another computer for playback in my livingroom.
4) I found at first that I had some issues with ghosting of the image that I resolved by disconnecting the FM antenna. It seemed to cause some distortion for me. And I don't really use it anyway because I haven't bothered to figure out how to get it running in Linux yet, and I have a stereo for that anyway.
5) There is also a port on the top of the card that you can connect an optional bracket to to increase the number of ports available to you if you want to connect more devices to it. It adds an additional svideo and composite set if I recall correctly.
6) For those that are considering recording demos of console games, you have to remember that this card buffers the input so there will be a delay of about 1sec between the action happening in the game any you seeing it on the screen. So you may think you're hitting your controller at the correct time, but you're actually 1 second behind.
7) The tuner doesn't really capture at 1280x1024. NTSC is 640x480. When you playback on your monitor, it gets scaled by your video card to whatever your screen resolution is. Granted video cards generally do a good job of this, but it isn't that way natively.
All in all, I really like this card because it barely takes up any system resources when used properly. I personally recommend using a different application than what comes with it, but the built in software certainly works well enough. Changing channels can be a tad slower than I'd like, but it's not really slow in my opinion.
If you are going to be using this card in one system and stream it to another system (like I'm currently doing) I'd recommend going with a PVR150 instead because it's a newer card than the PVR350 and is actually cheaper because it doesn't include the hardware decoder. Most current video cards will have atleast an Svideo port on them, and many even have component or DVI (most have DVI these days). Current video cards generally don't use much system resources to output this type of signal on a TV screen. HDTV can be a little more demanding to output, but basic SDTV is fairly light on the processor. If I had it to do over, I'd probably do it that way.
I've been very happy with it though.
Oh yeah, nice review.
I've got an ATI TV Wonder myself, and I can say, these cards add a good bit of functionality to your pc. I can enjoy the late night shows without bothering the others in the house. The native 1280x1024 resolution is a really nice addition to the card.
As far as the radio reception, computers put out a lot of electromagnetic interference. That may be a reason it doesn't pick up well. All the components within modern pc's can cause a good bit of static even on strong FM signals. I expect the reception would be better with an HTPC due to less internal wiring.
Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350
There are many products made for PCs that arent directed towards gamers at all. While we at Techgage focus primarily on gamers, we are tech heads to our very core. This calling that we follow can take us to so many places and allow us to tap the full potential of our computes. It is users, like you and I, that cannot be satisfied when our PCs run the latest games at ungodly resolutions with all the eye candy turned on provided by our dual GPU systems.

Federal Appeals Court Blocks EPA's Cellulosic Ethanol Target
Jason Mick
January 29, 2013 3:33 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Court argues that goal is simply too unrealistic
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) has pushed aggressively in recent years to promote advanced fuels such as recycled waste oil (biodiesel) and cellulosic ethanol. It also has pushed unpopular corn ethanol,
a food-crop based biofuel
, on the consumer market.
I. EPA Mandate Dealt a Blow
The EPA's weapon to push fuels is its ability to set blending targets that fuel distributors have to meet or risk fines. In recent months the EPA has been under fire for its
efforts to enforce an E-15
(15 percent corn ethanol) blending target. However, in U.S. Appeals Court of the D.C. Circuit, it was the other half of its initiatives -- the advanced biofuels blending targets -- that were on the chopping block.
The Appeals Court ruled this week that the EPA's blending targets for a particular type of advanced biofuel --
cellulosic ethanol
-- were simply infeasible. The EPA had demanded that between 2010 and 2012,
20 million gallons of cellulosic ethanol
be produced. But to date almost no cellulosic ethanol has been blended into commercial fuel, and cellulosic ethanol startups have been unable to provide significant stock to blenders.
The EPA claims it has the authority to enforce blends based on the
2007 Energy Act
passed under the Bush Administration, which promoted biofuels (and corn ethanol) growth.
But the Appeals court
[PDF] that argument calling the decision to enforce targets on refiners -- customers of the fuel producers -- rather than the producers themselves as a bizarre and unprecedented government effort.
A Federal Appeals Court has banned the EPA from enforcing cellulosic ethanol blending targets.
[Image Source: Free Enterprise]
The three-judge panel writes, "We are not convinced that Congress meant for E.P.A. to let that intent color its work as a predictor, to let the wish be father to the thought. ...Apart from their role as captive consumers, the refiners are in no position to ensure, or even contribute to, growth in the cellulosic biofuel industry ... [The EPA's message was essentially], 'Do a good job, cellulosic fuel producers. If you fail, we'll fine your customers.'"
A key fuel industry figure,
Bob Greco
, the
American Petroleum Institute
's director for downstream and industry operations, cheered the ruling, telling
The New York Times
, "There is no onus or accountability on the person who is producing the fuel. They're incentivized to pump up their projections via press release, and make rosy estimates because there's no skin off their back if they fail to hit those."
II. Cellulosic Ethanol Damaged, But Not Dead, Other Biofuels Remain Intact
But the court stopped short of handing the refiners (blenders) a total victory. It still left targets regarding biodiesel from fat, waste oil, soybean oil, or other sources intact. It also left targets for sugarcane ethanol -- regarded as another "advanced" biofuel -- intact.
Renewable Fuel Association
(RFA), while disappointed about the cellulosic ethanol rejection, praised the court for not adopting a broader rollback, while defending the EPA's estimates. The RFA
, "The EPA did not determine a reasonably achievable volume and then inflate it. Rather, it set the volume based on the best information available to it at the time."
Cellulosic ethanol remains an interesting idea. Unlike food crop ethanol, it doesn't put pressure on food prices. It in theory would
bolster U.S. energy security
, while minimizing the importance of oil producing states, many of which are hostile to the U.S. And by repurposing carbon-containing waste instead of burning fossil fuels, cellulosic ethanol would cut carbon emissions (versus corn-ethanol which has been
shown to increase net carbon emissions
, compared to petroleum).
Cellulose forms the "woody" component in most plant leaves and stems. It is harder to break down than "sugarier" plant carbohydrates. [Image Source: CUNY]
Two cellulosic ethanol startups -- Inios Bio and KiOR -- claim to be "near" commercial production, after tens of millions in startup capital. But neither company has a working commercial scale plant yet.
Other cellulosic ethanol companies --
such as Coskata
, which General Motors Comp. (
) backed pre-bankruptcy -- are still floating around,
showcasing "semi-commercial" scale
plants. But compared to the ambitious claims of a few years back, it would certainly seem such firms have lost a degree of their momentum.

Most ovarian cysts develop as a result of the normal function of your menstrual cycle. These are known as functional cysts. Other types of cysts are much less common.
Your ovaries normally grow cyst-like structures called follicles each month. Follicles produce the hormones estrogen and progesterone and release an egg when you ovulate. Sometimes a normal monthly follicle keeps growing. When that happens, it is known as a functional cyst. There are two types of functional cysts:
Corpus luteum cyst. When a follicle releases its egg, the ruptured follicle begins producing large quantities of estrogen and progesterone for conception. This follicle is now called the corpus luteum. Sometimes, however, the escape opening of the egg seals off and fluid accumulates inside the follicle, causing the corpus luteum to expand into a cyst.
The fertility drug clomiphene (Clomid, Serophene), which is used to induce ovulation, increases the risk of a corpus luteum cyst developing after ovulation. These cysts don't prevent or threaten a resulting pregnancy.
Functional cysts are usually harmless, rarely cause pain, and often disappear on their own within two or three menstrual cycles.
Some types of cysts are not related to the normal function of your menstrual cycle. These cysts include:
Dermoid cysts and cystadenomas can become large, causing the ovary to move out of its usual position in the pelvis. This increases the chance of painful twisting of your ovary, called ovarian torsion.

As part of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular, the Radio City Rockettes have been a part of the Christmas tradition for over 75 years. Featuring the famous toe-tapping and leg-kicking group of dancers, the Rockettes make the Christmas Spectacular a night to remember for the whole family. The Radio City Rockettes crisscross the country in several touring groups each year, with past cities including Austin, TX; Nashville, TN; Boston, MA; and Fort Myers, FL.
The Radio City Rockettes and the Radio City Christmas Spectacular receive praise from critics year after year. The 75th anniversary special updated the show, adding new acts and updating or discarding old ones. It was regarded by reviewers from the New York Times to Newsday to be one of the best seasons of the show to date. Be sure to see what the show will bring this year by getting your tickets for the Radio City Christmas Spectacular at TicketNetwork!
The Radio City Rockettes, originally known as the Missouri Rockets, were founded by Russell Markert in Saint Louis, Missouri, in 1925. Destined to be more than just a local hit, the Rockettes caught the eye of showman Samuel "Roxy" Rothafel in 1927, who took them to New York. Renamed the "Roxyettes," the group opened Radio City Music Hall in December 1932.
The Radio City Rockettes have since become a part of the holiday tradition. They performed for American troops during World War II, perform annually at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, and typically make an appearance at the lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. Additionally, the Rockettes have been involved with Broadway productions like Can Can, were the halftime performers for 1988's Super Bowl XXII, and have teamed up with many other performers, including Chita Rivera and Paula Abdul.
The Radio City Rockettes are known for their impeccably choreographed movements, high kicks, and the illusion of all the Rockettes being the same height. The group's most famous routines are "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers" and "New York at Christmas," both performed during the Radio City Christmas Spectacular. Starting off as a small, 16-member group, the Radio City Rockettes now number 36. Besides performing at Radio City Music Hall this winter, the Rockettes will perform on tour all over the United States.
The Radio City Christmas Spectacular has been a mainstay of holiday entertainment since the show's opening in 1933. Originally the show was mostly comprised of the Radio City Rockettes, but in the intervening years, the Christmas Spectacular has developed into a ninety-minute-long show with over 140 performers, flashy costumes, and acts choreographed with absolute precision.
Many parts of the show have changed in its more than 75-year history, but two of the show's original components, "March of the Wooden Soldiers" and "Living Nativity," continue to be fan favorites. The 2007 version of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular saw a significant revamping of the show to coincide with its 75th anniversary. New acts, including the Rockette's 3D tour of New York, were created for the anniversary special, literally adding a new dimension of fun and glamour to the winter season's most popular show. The Radio City Christmas Spectacular is a part of the holiday repertoire that cannot be missed, so get your Radio City Christmas Spectacular tickets today!

|Current page in the browser is safe
|Current page in the browser contains no threats but is somewhat suspicious (questionable in origin or motive, therefore not recommended for e-shopping etc.)
|Current page might be safe, but contains links to dangerous pages; is suspected of questionable coding, though shows no immediate threats at the moment
|Current page is not accessible and could not be scanned
Note: A Red Page Status indicator will not be shown. If a page is dangerous, AVG LinkScanner® will always block these pages.
You may also click on the Page Status Indicator for more information on the current page as well as see how many AVG LinkScanner™ icons have been shown since you installed the AVG Toolbar.
At the bottom of the window is a link to clear the statistics which will reset all counts of AVG icons back to zero. This window can be closed by clicking the "x" in the upper right corner.

|Cape Cod Bob
go to this site. Very helpful. Get their catalog. Loaded with info on how to. Even call for tech advice.
Learned something today. The port closest to the push rod is for the front brakes, correct?
That being the case, I only have the front brakes hooked up now and the pedal goes to the floor. Any ideas? The brakes are mounted below the cab. Years ago I put a 10# residual on what I thought was the rear brake line but is actually the fronts. It is still on there and there is no change in performance. Pedal still gets real low to floor.
|Considering how tight the rear shoes are on the drum there should not be much movement of the wheel cylinder, so with no resistance, soft rubber line, all of that movement could be in the rubber hose , and not expanding the shoes in the drum
Soft/Low Brake Pedal
I have a 56' ford f100 with power brakes. Always felt that the break were not right as the pedal always got really low to the floor. This past month, the master cylinder began leaking. Replaced it with a new one, which was a 1" bore master cylinder from a 79-81 Buick Riviera.
After bench bleeding and installing, vacuum bled the lines, the pedal could be pushed to the floor with my hand without the engine running.
First I thought the new master cylinder might be bad. To test it out I removed the rear brake line and plugged it. When I did so, I tried pressing on the brake pedal and there was almost not movement.
This has me thinking that there is something going on with the rear brakes. I have a 10lb residual in the line. I was also asked by the auto parts store if it was rear drums or disks so I got the mc for the drums.
I believe the drums brakes are adjusted properly as I can hear the pads drag on the drums and it is difficult to rotate the rear tires by hand.
Only thing I can think is that the rear flex line is ballooning, but would that cause such a drop in the pedal?
Any help or other ideas would be appreciated.

I need the experts help with this one. I just got back my fully painted (and quite stunning I might add) Boba Maker jet pack that I commissioned another TDH member to paint. It did not survive transit and has arrived with a few cracked and broken pieces. What is the best method for making repairs to fiberglass without further damaging paint, etc.?
I can post a pic if it would help but one of the rocket cylinders is cracked almost all the way around and the bottom vents are broken out. It's very unstable. I'm bummed, but where there's a will...
Please help guys, I'm too far along at this point to give up. I'm only a pair of boots away from finally finishing my costume.
* One thought...Is it possible for someone here to make the vent piece on the bottom of the pack a seperate piece that can be glued into place?
Any help would be appreciated.

George, First off I will agree with cam about it would be a hard beat to windward to get to the Virgin Islands from the Bahamas. However, that said it is not impossible. When we were in St Thomas in Jan - March of 2005, we met a 23 year old single-hander who bought an old 26 foot sloop for $3,500 in Tampa FL. He then sailed her, by himself (with no auto pilot or wind vane self steering device) from Tampa down through the Bahamas to the Dominican Republic, and from there over the top of Puerto Rico (without stopping) until he arrived in St Thomas. He would heave-to at night to get some sleep and at time he could trim the boat so she would sail by herself. So you see, it CAN be done.
To see a picture of Nat go to:
and scroll down to "Nat the young single-hander"
Thank you for the helpfull tips, especially leaving @ 10 pm. I would have left early am otherwise. I like the idea of a more leisurly arrival.
If I do go inside the sound (probably will) I will look you up and thanks very much for the offer of a mooring!!
SGKuhner...good to see you back on line! Good luck with the rest of the trip and we hope to see you both at the docks in the fall!
Sidney777... my comment was made because of the conditions that will be faced going 700 miles to windward against the trade winds and seas in a modestly built coastal cruiser that is not designed for that type of work. I'm not saying it CAN'T be done..just will be much more uncomfortable and dangerous than most people would want. BTW...I like the C30 very much and at one point in our lives it was our dream boat...and I have sailed on them as well as owning two catalinas. I am referring specifically to THIS boat as being unsuitable for the trip...not all catalinas.
The Bahamas to the Turks and Caicos are easily do-able in a C30 with a competent crew. Once you have to turn the corner and head east in open water it is a different story. In MY boat we had to wait a full 30 days in the DR before conditions were benign enough to make progress to windward.
Note that the original writer said Domenica ...not the DR.
charts for the bahamas
I have not seen anyone mention charts. If you are going to cruise the Bahamas, the ONLY charts to use are the Explorer Charts. They come in three books, and all the way points are spot on. And DO NOT rely on your chart plotter when navigating the Bahamas. I have seen too many boats go aground, blindly following their chart plotters and not looking overboard at the color of the water; especially on Witches Point south west of Marsh Harbor on Great Abaco. One friend went aground there when we were buddy boating with him. When I went aboard to help him kedge off, he showed me that his chart plotter had him smack in the middle of the channel; but one look overside and one could see that the water was too shallow.
As for going on down the Jersey coast, Manasquan can be dicey. Also, If we have a forecast for 2 days of a westerly or northwester when leaving Cape May, we always just go straight down the Delaware coast directly to Norfolk. It is two days and a night sail. (do you have an auto pilot?) Once in the ICW, the trick is to RELAX and enjoy the trip. Don't push it as it is a fun trip in and of itself, only if you don't look at it as a delivery; but, as an adventure. Besides Skipper Bob's Anchorages on the ICW (as Camaraderie recommends) get the chart book and a highlighter and highlight each buoy as you pass it. That way when you need to do a quick check of the chart because you are not sure what you are looking at ahead, you will have a quick reference point. That will be especially useful as you will be single handing.
We always cross over to the Abacos from Lake Worth Inlet in Palm Beach. We wait for a good forecast of a southerly to westerly breeze and we leave at about 10 pm so that we arrive on the banks at 7 am and then continue on to Great Sail Cay so we don't have to put in at West End and pay a marina fee. Also by leaving at night, we can sail even if we are not making good time. If you leave in the early AM to do a day passage, you have to push to make it to West End by night fall.
Good Luck and Oh Yes, definitely come down the LI Sound and stop in the Norwalk Islands or the Five Mile River and we will arrange a mooring for you for the night.
camaraderie vbmenu_register("postmenu_269970", true); said. Please explain the Why of this statement ?
"I am pretty confident you won't make it to Domenica in a C30...but you'll figure that out yourself along the way."

Based on the great advice I have received from this thread from that point on if I have crew Ill go outside to Chesapeak or without crew Ill go LI Sound on to Cape May
|If you're both doing this trip in October, it might be a good idea to buddy boat... if your schedules are compatible.
I might be making the same trip in late oct in my hunter 36,
still in the planning stage.
I will be spending most of the summer cruising around Long Island sound,Block Island,Newport getting crew ready for the trip,My home port is Greenport.
Manasquan is a decent but narrow inlet and good in most conditions. Jones is dicey, strong currents and shifting shoal channels. If you go around Montauk the ONLY route that makes sense is offshore to Cape May.

The Center for Perinatal Urology at Boston Children's Hospital treats birth defects commonly related to the genitourinary tract. Hydronephrosis is the most common condition we treat. However, we also offer care and support for obstruction of the urinary tract and other congenital urologic disorders.
Hydronephrosis is dilation or stretching of the area of kidneys where urine collects that can occur when there is an obstruction of urine flow. Most children with hydronephrosis are born with the condition, although it can also develop during childhood. Most mild cases — and even some moderate cases — may go away on their own, while severe cases may require surgery.
Researchers at Boston Children's are looking for noninvasive diagnostic tests that will help doctors make better predictions about the baby's health after birth. They're also investigating ways to safely treat urologic disorders, such as bladder outlet obstruction, while the baby is still in the womb.
We are grateful to have been ranked #1 on U.S. News & World Report's list of the best children's hospitals in the nation for the third year in a row, an honor we could not have achieved without the patients and families who inspire us to do our very best for them. Thanks to you, Boston Children's is a place where we can write the greatest children's stories ever told."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
I double checked all the vacuum hoses and they are all in good condition
I received a replacement air and fuel filter today that I ordered along with the O2 sensor (separate shipment), and it did the trick. It's kind of embarrassing that such a simple thing was the cause, but it was only one piece of the puzzle. It was a combination of: blocked cold start injector, broken O2 sensor, and soiled filters. Thanks everyone for all the help and advice.
The O2 does not receive voltage it creates it. The computer reads this voltage as either rich or lean and corrects the fuel accordingly.
Now for the erratic idle. I would check for vacuum leaks again.
I replaced the O2 sensor with a brand new one today. It didn't fix the problem, but it did change it dramatically. Now it doesn't have a problem idling, it just runs very uneven and low. When it was started cold it ran at about 1000 RPM, but when it warmed up it settled around 600-700 RPM, which is lower than the recommended 900. During idle, it would suddenly surge up to around 900... then back to 700, and back and forth, like it was making rash adjustments to something. It didn't threaten to die though, it just stayed "reliably" uneven. When pressing the peddle down, it would hesitate and lazily make its way up. so basically, the engine runs uneven. I tried unplugging the O2 sensor and like before it runs with no problem when it is disconnected, idles fine and does not hesitate. I again tried plugging it in while it was running at idle and it instantly went down in RPM and ran uneven.
Since the new O2 sensor makes the car run different, but not well, it leads me to suspect that the old sensor was indeed broken, but it was not the only problem. I read that when the O2 sensor is unplugged (or not heated up enough to be active) the system reverts to a rich mixture. Since it runs well when unplugged, could the rich mixture be covering up a problem in the rest of the system?
Thanks to everyone for the help. That PDF may come in handy, thanks Latech. I'm going to check everything I can that's been suggested. I think I may have found the problem today, but first: I checked the cold start injector. I ran the car until it had problems idling and then disconnected the power to it. It made no difference, so I don't think it's spraying too long. I think I've tracked down every vacuum hose and replaced all that had cracks. I checked by hand The one I mentioned before that went to the air flow sensor from the auxiliary air valve. I couldn't see it, but I felt the rest of the hose that I couldn't see and it seems to be metal the whole way to the air flow sensor. It only uses a short rubber hose for the initial bend from the auxiliary air valve. That doesn't rule out a leak somewhere in there, it may have come loose, but I think it's unlikely.
Now to the interesting bit: The car has a single O2 sensor. It's a single-wire unheated type and thus takes awhile before it becomes active. I ruled this out as a cause of the problem before because:
A: The car started idling poorly before the O2 sensor should be active
B: I disconnected the power to the O2 sensor and it made no difference
Today i realized that ever since I cleaned that plugged up hole to the cold start injector, it runs much longer before it has a problem, and it may be heating up enough to make the O2 sensor a factor. So I ran it for about 4 minutes today, heating it up until the thermostat was about at the middle. At this point the car would not idle unless I revved it and released the peddle very gradually, and even then only some of the time. Once it was steady though, it would stay like that, until I revved it again. Then I revved it and released the peddle fast so that it started the usual up and down thing. I then quickly disconnected the power to the O2 sensor and the engine stabilized instantly. I repeated this multiple times. Sometimes, when the engine was stable and the O2 sensor disconnected, simply plugging it in would instantly cause it to bog down and up.
So, it looks like it may have been a combination of things, but I won't know for sure it's the only problem until I replace it. The manuals say the sensor should be replaced every 15,000 miles and I don't know when it was last replaced. The car has about 85,000 miles on it. I'm not going to stop here though, I'm going to continue checking things while I wait for a replacement.
I think that is a pressure regulator. Vacuum allows fuel to pass if it fails the engine will not start.
I think you need to clean the throttle plate with some spray cleaner. Also check the hose from the air cleaner to the mass air flow sensor. And the hose after the MAF sensor. If these are loose the engine can not regulate the amount of fuel needed to run correctly.
Happy Hunting
You might also want to read up on how to check the 4 different system fuel pressures. Should be 4 it goes like this: rest pressure after system is shut off and wait about 5 minutes it should hold pressure see specs.
cold start pressure at startup running pressure after warmup and deadhead pressure ( max pressure) that the pump is capable of. read the precautions especially on dead head pressure as you dont want to hurt the pump.
I found a digram for the system and number 12 looks like the photo.It is the auxiliary air valve ( cold start up air regulator) anyhow this pdf ( download it so you have it) is at: http://www.bmfi.com.au/files/interjectKjetronic.pdf
Looks like good info.
|Also if the cold start injector keeps spraying it will run rich you would see black smoke ( at least some) out the tailpipe. You could check it by simply unbolting it after you run it for a minute or two and see if it is still spraying.
I changed some vacuum hoses that were a bit cracked. It didn't seem to do anything, but it's good to have it replaced anyway. I've checked every connection I could find to the airflow sensor and they appear to be fine. Although, there is one that I can't seem to reach without taking the air sensor and fuel distributor off. I will try to check it if the other possibilities don't pan out.
However, the most interesting thing happened today. I found a couple more hoses that were cracked, one of which connected to what I'm pretty sure is the cold start injector. I took it off to inspect how badly it was cracked and found that the metal connector to the hose on the cold start injector was almost completely plugged with hard black stuff. I took the connector off, cleaned it out, and reattached everything. To my great joy, this is the first time I've noticed any difference in how it ran. I started it and it idled higher than normal - slightly above 1000 RPM, instead of 900 like before. I waited for about 40 seconds and it seemed to be steady, which is longer that it has ever lasted without starting to die. Then I revved it to get the temperature up. When I quickly took my foot off it bogged down almost to the point of dying, and it went up and down for a few seconds until it resumed idling steady. I revved it again and this time took my foot off gradually - it didn't bog and resumed idling well. Then I tried revving again, and it wouldn't idle steady again, regardless of if I released the peddle gradually or not.
So, I'm going to try two things tomorrow: I'm going to replace the cracked hoses, and I'm going to do some diagnostic tests that are outlined in the service manual to test the cold start injector and the thermal timer. I want to see that:
A: It is spraying correctly, and
B: The thermal timer shuts it off. The manual says it should spray for no longer than 12 seconds.
The two service manuals I have are frustratingly vague in some areas. There is a mysterious thing that is connected to the vacuum hoses that I suspect is a vacuum booster - however, there is not a single mention of it in both manuals that I can find. If it is a vacuum booster, would checking the gasket for cracks be a good idea? I attached a picture of it.
|I had this problem on my father's volvo and it turned out that one of the intake hoses after the MAF sensor came unhooked and it wasn't sucking air through the sensor. I could also be that the sensor is bad and needs a new one.
|Thanks for the help! I'm going to check your suggestions and some other possible causes. As it happens I just received the service manual today so I'm finally able to get an idea of how all the systems work.
|Sounds like a vacuum leak some where. The fact is starts good when cold tells me the thermo time switch must be spraying the cold start injector. It may not have a thermo time switch but it will have a cold start injector on an old model like that.I dont have a book or any info available to me at the moment but i am calling on memory only. Now it can be an air leak at the cylinder head to intake area or a split or fallen off vacuum hose.but I think it best to start at the air flow sensor.Its probably the old style with the door inside that opens as airflow opens it. It regulates the fuel. The more air the farther open the door hence the more fuel goes into the engine.SO check the hose from the airflow meter to the intake manifold first. Take it off carefully as it may be kinda soft from age and if it tears you will need another one. Any splits or cracks can allow air in and wont pull the airflow meter door open and will run lean as less fuel is delivered and will cause it to stall and surge. Probably not a big hole yet which is why it still accelerates ok.as the hole gets bigger it will idle worse.I have taped over some spots in a few of them in the past as a temporary measure and it has worked.
1979 Volvo 264 2.66 liter V6 idle problem
I have a 1979 Volvo 264 that won't stay idling. When started cold it will idle well at about 900 RPM for about 30 seconds and then it starts to fall in RPM, goes back up, falls even more, goes back up less, etc until it dies. If i try to start it up again without waiting a while it picks up where it left off and goes up and down until dying, instead of idling well for a little bit like when started cold.
It accelerates beautifully. I drove it around the block to warm it up and it does not hesitate to accelerate or bog at all, but when stopping to turn it was extremely close to dying at idle.
For what it's worth, it is fuel injected. Also, I'm waiting for a service manual to come so I'm unsure of the exact anatomy of the car, although I have the owner's manual which is somewhat useful.

The Reglue $32,000 Campaign Challenge
At this point, the Ubuntu Edge Indiegogo campaign for $32 million is just north of $7 million.
At this point, the Reglue Indiegogo campaign for $32,000 is just south of $4,000.
And that's after Mark Shuttleworth kicked in $1,000 to the Reglue campaign (a sincere thank you for that one, Mark; sincerely and seriously — no snark).
If you do the math, $32,000 is 0.1 percent — one-tenth of one percent — of $32 million. But I hate fractions and decimal points, so I'm going to round up the figure to, oh, 10 percent by throwing out the decimal point and swapping the digits instead.
With this 10 percent factor, I hereby throw down the gauntlet to each and every Ubuntu Edge contributor.
Here's the challenge: You bought an Ubuntu Edge phone for $600 or $800 already? Great. If you can afford to spend that much on a phone, you can kick in 10 percent of that to the Reglue Indiegogo campaign to help underprivileged kids around Austin, Texas, get Linux boxes, as well as providing the upkeep and day-to-day operations of nine computer learning labs in and around Austin.
You didn't buy a phone, but you believe in Canonical's project enough to place some money down? Fantastic. Now, how about about donating 10 percent of what you gave to them to a project that not only provides the aforementioned Linux boxes and computer labs, but also provides Internet connectivity to the most needy of their clients?
That's all I'm asking, Ubunteros: 10 percent of what you gave to Ubuntu Edge.
[This is not to say that those who didn't donate to Ubuntu Edge are exempt. If you are a good Fosstafarian and want to see the good that Reglue does succeed, by all means donate.]
Bonus: Here's your chance to make me eat proverbial crow, Ubuntu fans. I'll sit in the digital sideshow dunk tank and let you throw baseballs to put me in the water. If you donated to BOTH Ubuntu Edge and Reglue — your Reglue donation must be at least 10 percent of your Ubuntu Edge donation — you have accepted the challenge, so post a comment to this blog with your real name and the amount of your donations to each. Upon my confirmation of both donations, I will comment back with a statement and/or observation to each and every comment about what Ubuntu is/has been doing right and/or something positive about Ubuntu.
Double bonus: Want to see me eat my words for an entire month? How's this? If Reglue makes its goal of $32,000 — with or without the help of Ubuntu users and fans — I'll write a month of Sundays of Ubuntu blog posts extolling the glory that is the adjective-and-the-animal-with-the-same-letter. That's a month of Larry the Free Software Guy blogs, which run on Sundays, accenting the greatness that is Ubuntu. The top four Ubuntu Edge/Reglue donors (top Ubuntu Edge donors to Reglue, that is) each get to pick one of the four topics for four consecutive Sunday LtFSG blog items singing the glowing praises of Canonical, Ubuntu or both.
[Looking at the proverbial scoreboard, the top donor in this category so far would be Mark Shuttleworth. How about it, Mark? Think you can rally your troops?]
There you go, folks. You have a few weeks left. Feeling up to the task?
Oops, I did it again: Every time I mention Ubuntu Edge in a blog post, I am going to mention this. I still strongly advocate for folks to donate to the following groups instead of giving millions to Canonical. Give instead to:

All I want for Christmas is an update on the Android field guide!
Well – drumroll – it's here!
Last Friday, we were very proud that Senator The Hon Don Farrell, Minister for Science and Research and Minister Assisting for Tourism, was able to join us at Melbourne Museum to celebrate this significant milestone.
Field Guide apps team pose with Minister Farrell: Simon Sherrin, Jo Taylor, Ely Wallis, Ajay Ranipeta, Minister Farrell, Blair Patullo (absent: Nicole Kearney, Michael Mason).Image: Jon AugierSource: Museum Victoria
Development of the Android version is part of a wider project, funded by the Australian Government under the Inspiring Australia, Unlocking Australia's Potential scheme, where we are working with museums around the country to deliver field guide apps for all States and Territories.
The MV Field Guide app is now available through Google Play for Android devices – including tablets, phablets and phones. And it's free.

The app contains over 730 Victorian animals, including mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs, fishes and marine and freshwater invertebrates. Each detailed description includes stunning images, distribution maps, endangered status and animal sounds (for birds, frogs and other noisy critters).

Apple device users will be able to download an updated iOS version in the coming weeks. The new version represents a significant upgrade to the existing iOS app.
Additions to the new Android app (and coming soon for Apple devices) include:
Hi Adrian,
Thank you for your feedback about Museum Victoria's Field Guide to Victorian Fauna app. You will be pleased to know that we too hope to add a function that will allow users to record their animal sightings from within the app (as this has been requested by a number of our app users). It is certainly something on our wish list for a future update!
Hi Richard, Thank you for your comment about the Sambar Deer distribution map. The maps are created using data from specimens held in Australian museums, as well as from human observations. Ironically this means that the distribution maps of very common species can be inadequate; we have fewer of them in our collections and their occurrence is less likely to be reported to us. The same is true for feral species.
We are now creating custom maps for those species that have incorrect distribution maps. We have replaced the map for the Sambar Deer (and the Fallow Deer). These new maps will appear in the next data update.
Thanks again for helping us to improve the quality of our app!
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Updates on what's happening at Melbourne Museum, the Immigration Museum, Scienceworks, the Royal Exhibition Building, and beyond.

Bobby Collins is always the funniest guy in the room. With more than 200 stand-up performances around the country each year, he is a show-business institution who has made millions laugh.
A native of New York, he was literally born into comedy when his father named him for his favorite comedian, Bob Hope. In the 1980s, Bobby left a lucrative position as vice president of Calvin Klein to pursue his dream and ended up working alongside such comedy legends as Jerry Seinfeld and Jay Leno. While other comics have left stand-up behind, Bobby has kept going, preferring the intimacy and energy he finds in live clubs, theaters and casinos.
The audience at a Bobby Collins show is half the fun. Many of Bobby's enthusiastic fans have been following him for years and know by heart some of his classic bits ("…on the inside!"). But Bobby keeps it fresh with new observations based on everyday life and his travels around the country.
Over the years, he has hosted VH-1′s "Stand Up Spotlight"; toured with Cher, Julio Iglesias, Dolly Parton and Tony Bennett, among others; and released six comedy CDs, "On the Inside," "Out of Bounds," "You're Not Coming With Us," "Mr. New York," "I Wanna Go Home" and most recently "I'm on the Boat." His latest DVD, "Telling It Like It Is" is available on BobbyCollins.com and will be in-stores, on Amazon and on iTunes in February.
David Brenner says, "Even if you can't spell Karen Rontowski, you'd
better remember it, because she is GREAT!"
Ms. Rontowski describes herself as having an optimistic outlook;
everything is coming up roses when you talk to Karen. So what if her
therapist says she's in complete denial. The truth is, when it comes to
her standup comedy career, everything is coming up roses, or at least
Comedian Karen Rontowski's upbeat, optimistic and clean sense of
humor has earned her headlining spots all over the world. She has also
opened for such show biz legends as Bob Hope, Ray Charles and the
Monkees. Often described as a "New Age Hippie" Rontowski says
"there is no time like the present to be living in the past."
Karen's real touring trips (not the ones in her head) include 45 of the 50
states, Canada, Japan, Greenland and all over Europe. She has also
entertained the troops with tales of her Polish father who once put a
drawbridge on their house… actually he just installed the garage door
upside down. But that's Karen…. always accentuating the positive..
A television favorite, you may have seen this hilarious woman on
Comedy Central, Live at Gotham and Comics Unleashed. A regular on
the Bob and Tom Radio Show, Karen keeps listeners laughing not only
with her standup, but also when she talks about her other career as a
paranormal investigator.
Recently seen performing in the encore production of David Brenner's
"What's so funny?" and the TBS Comedy Festival, Karen just completed
the television pilot, Karen's Supernatural Junkyard, in which she spear-
heads hilarious adventures into supernatural investigations. Just ask
her about her ghost orbs! "I am not afraid of ghosts, they're just people

Ok guys...
This is the best pic I have of it. Its exactly the same thing as a Boba Fett pack, but as you can see, the top rocket is different.
i dont know anything about jodo cast but i love the alternative to the film fetts.would be great to see a comic book version come to life.
....by the way that rocket tip look sweet
Not that I'm much up on my Jodo either but, looks like his rangefinder has some sort of circular object on top of it, as well as his right ear being a little bit different than boba's too.
my rocket is interchangable , from the old stand by to the stubby , now i need to make one of those for my arsenall.
Very cool Jodo. Nice spot Ego on the ear piece difference and the circular thingie ontop of the rangefinder.
That's a kewel lookin' rocket Jodo! Got that almost whupped into shape?
I'd love to see that when it's done. Keep us posted and more pics of your costume!!!
I will trust me. Its just a kind of a slow process on my part. I`ll keep everyone updated.
Dude that's pretty damn cool, your working on a Jodo Kast attire & me with my Jaster Mereel (thanks to FB). These are 2 major projects taking place at the same time, good luck with yours!
Hey Matt..
Very cool!!!! Have you gotten any of the pieces done yet? If you have, can you post some pics?
Heres some links to some of Mattster27's armor.
sweet costume so far Mattster27. same with you Jodo.
keep up the good work (both of you).
All that looks sweet!!! I just love custom Mandalores.....
I definately have to post some more of mine.
friggin rad

I've looked, trust me, so if this is a repeated post, I apologize in advance.
Has there been a complete, and I mean COMPLETE, parts breakdown of each and every piece of these costumes (ESB, ROTJ)? I mean a list that has the part name, what it was in the real world, and where to get it now? Like this--
ESB BLASTER: WWI Webley and Scott No. 1 Mark "1" flare pistol. ASI 4x20" scope. 4 Molex Connectors - AMP part number1-163035-0 (6 pin)
And that's all I know, actually,
If it's fabricated by someone on the board, who makes it and for how much?
Like we know where to get the helmet now, but who makes the most screen accurate other pieces? I mean, I see boots and gloves by 100 different people, jet pack kits, dental tools-- aahhhh!!! Overwhelming! I think a resource like that would be awesome.
Did I just miss it?

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|One more thought in case you are feeling particularly rich, any of the Strange housings can be had as a bolt in. Also Fab 9 makes some killer 9" housings that can take an amazing amount of power. Have fun, if you find two diesel G-bodies with 8.5"'s let me know, I can always use one.
|78 elky
|this is exactly the kind of info I am looking for. I think I will see if I can find a diesel car first in the scrap yard if not I guess i'll have to decide on whether or what I want to do just trying to get as much info as possible before making any decisions thanks for all your help
|You will also have to narrow the diff to get it to sit like the one in there now. I'm not a fan of cutting and welding on my diff, too many little things to go wrong (warping, off by a little bit...), so I would rather pay my money and not have any down the road problems that can be associated with things like that.
|78 elky
|It sits the way it did when I got it oh 8 years ago or so. Spent a few years over seas in the military and a few years other places in the military and had to leave the car at dads house till I got close enough to pick it up and start working on it. I also acquired and wife and a beatiful daughter along the journey so I like to stick to parts I can find in the scrap yard thanks for the info would I need to the offset control arms to run a 8.5 out of the b body like I would with a 12 bolt
That's a little more power than me. But you can honestly leave the 7.5" and use good parts and not hurt a thing.
An 8.5" can be had from G-bodyparts.com. They do a lot of GN stuff and you can get a complete rear drum to drum for around $600.
Do you have the rear of the car higher than normal?
|78 elky
|The back of the elky sits high enough a wheel would go right out the wheel well with out hitting. Right now putting together a 425hr 400lbs trq motor run full slicks I still drive the car to the track though kind of fun that way just change the tires once I get there. Who knows what the future has instore for the car soo would like to step up to a 8.5 my dad runs 600ftlb of trq on a 8.5 and has had no problems in 4 years so not worried there
Any of the G-body could be had with a diesel. Olds might be the best bet to find one with a diesel. The B-bodies are the fullsize GM's, like the Impala, Caprice, big Caddy's... I think you will run into the housing to be too wide to get a wheel in the wheel well of a g-body. You would still run into the changing the spring perches and everything else.
Out of curiosity, what are you plans for the car? I'm puttin' 400 lb/ft through a stock axled 3.08 geared 7.5" with a locker, and still haven't broke anything on a set of sticky drag radials.
|78 elky
|What would have a diesel? A regal or something? What are the B body cars? What kind of mods to rear required with these? the help is really appreciated Also width is not really a problem I don't have much clearence to the frame anyway so a axle that is four inches longer or so wouldn't be a problem
|If you can find a G-body that originally had a diesel engine, That would have the 8.5" and would be a direct bolt in (open diff 2.73 or lower geared). You can put a lot more to a stock 7.5" than people are willing to admit to. I have friends in the 12's on a 7.5". You use good parts and you can go a long way. I think that the B-body has a wider width drum to drum, and you can find a 9"out of an older fullsize ford. As soon as you go with a different diff, you run into width problems. Happy hunting!
|78 elky
78 elky rear end
This has probably been answered already but I searched and didn't come up with the info i needed. Looking for a 8.5 or a ford rear end swap for a 78 elky I am not going to find one from a hurst or 442 or any that in not on my budget Can get what ever rear I want for $100 out of local scrap yard. Have welding shop that will weld spring perches and control arm brackets to donor rear for $100-150 so thats route looking to go. My question what car will make the best donor with least amount of modifications would like to stay with 8.5 or ford because of availability

Saints wide receiver Marques Colston was limited in practice Friday due to a sore left foot and is listed as questionable to play Sunday versus the Redskins. The pain in his foot limited Colston in Thursday's practice after he sat out on Wednesday.
Fantasy Analysis:
Even if Colston was suddenly ruled out for the season, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be a bigger story in New Orleans and around the league than the decision that was just reached in the appeals case stemming from the Saints' bounty program. But I digress ...
Colston has a history of knee injuries, but he's been fairly durable in recent years. If nothing else, he plays through pain. He missed just two games last year after breaking his collarbone in Week 1. From 2009-10, he played in 31 of 32 regular-season games. And he'll play this weeknd, too. Colston will gut it out as he has so often and is a must-start WR2.
