Here a a couple of shots of the nut in question. It basically has four regular sides and a part circle.

To clarify, I just need to borrow the socket to get the funky lug nut off with.
Hello. I was wondering if anybody had a security lug for a fourth-gen F-body that I could borrow. I misplaced mine and I need to swap rims. Thanks.
So, speaking of quirky engines, does anyone have any experience with the Miller cycle Mazdas?
His summary of the A and B columns is a little weak. If taking action causes global depression in the top box, it would almost certainly do it in the bottom box (the smiley face scenarios are not equivalent). Essentially, using his reasoning, ticket A guarantees a global depression, while ticket B poses risks of catastrophe but also retains the possibility of maintaining global prosperity. This makes the probability of significant warming a key factor in determining the course of action and not merely an afterthought as he indicates.
Fuel injection systems spray the gasoline onto the back face of the hot intake valve to promote evaporation of the fuel. Some fuel does enter the cylinder in droplet form, but it evaporates quickly due to the extremely small size of the fuel droplets. Carburetors produce a spray of small droplets which evaporate in the intake manifold. Some fuel travels as a film along the walls, and some of the larger droplets do not evaporate, so in older carbureted engines, about 60% evaporation was achieved. I was referring to multi-port fuel injection, since it is most commonly used and is "tottally" cool.
I would not expect any real improvement in fuel economy in a gas engine. The gas should be in vapor form upon entering the cylinder anyway, so "lubricity" is pretty irrelevant
I think STS offers that as their stage 5 kit. :icon_joker:
Karkov has two main uses: bribing homeless people to do your bidding and as an industrial solvent.
A plywood wing would be good.
I think Ford might do better now that Bill Ford is out as CEO. He kind of had the Midas touch, except with poo instead of gold.

Wow. I didn't realize those tankers were that old. You must be in competition with the B-52s for oldest plane in the inventory, then.
I'll miss the planes. They were pretty old, but they were really interesting to work with and in pretty good shape.
He got gripped! Ha!

I actually did a bit of analysis on some motor oils, and the results are contained in the attached zipped spreadsheet. The machine I was using really can't say anything about the base polymers, but additives based on metals can be detected. Probably the most significant difference is the higher Mo concentration in the more expensive oils, which is probably due to more anti-wear additives being present. All of the oils pegged the Zn detector at 300 ppm.
I'm a little nervous about the possibility of Speaker Pelosi (D-CA) and about John Conyers (D-Hezbollah) chairing the Judiciary committee. But that's just me.
