On another note, I can't stand smart phones either.Too much technology just makes people more stupid,fat and lazy. I'll bite. Too much technology makes some people efficient and lean. It all depends on you. Blaming technology for fat lazy people is ridiculous. Fat lazy people are fat because they are lazy and their lazy because the have been allowed to be or have chosen to be. I carry a smart phone and compete in Century bike races. Last one I was at I didn't see any fat or lazy people competing. I did see a lot of smart phones... only half true. I have seen a few Bright young people with great capabilities become so dependent on the smartphone , that they "forgot about the simple tasks- math,memory and so on. If you don't use it, you lose it. And having a device do so many things for you DOES make people lazy.

While I agree with you that it should be a tool to enhance knowledge and expand horizons, It has become somewhat of a crutch for a lot of people.Also children of today spent way too much time gaming on the computers.and texting and whatever else they do that a great portion of the population is overweight and out of shape.I see too many employees on phones all day when they should be at their jobs. what im saying is that its ok for what it's meant to be, but too many are dependent on their smartphones and technology. Try to take a younger person's phone away for a week, and (if you can) let me know the results. I think its gotten out of hand.If you disagree, so be it.

I damaged the hard drive in my laptop at the beginning of the year.So I opted to buy a new one. It had windows8. I hated it, so I returned it and had a new hard drive put into the other one formatted with windows 7.Even though with 8 you can switch to a classic desktop theme, I still don't want it. Many people i've spoken to (including my computer repair guy) dislike windows 8. Why can't they leave well enough alone?Apps for this- Aps for that... Pretty soon, an app to blow your nose. RIDICULOUS!On another note, I can't stand smart phones either.Too much technology just makes people more stupid,fat and lazy.

I'm glad you guys are discussing this.I was thinking of removing the bar in mine two months ago for just the same reason.I was however reluctant.Now that I see it's somewhat of a common problem, I'm going to remove it as well.As far as the pressure changing due to the tanker truck, :)That's a new one. I think the newer systems have higher flow rates. Maybe something to do with the fume reclamation systems. If I go to a place with older pumps,I find that I can control the flow easier with the pump handle. Anyway, I too was questioning the purpose of that bar. apparently, It's there to aggravate us.

yep, it's possible with the qmb139 gy6, but it gets a little unruly to handle when you re-assemble it.

10w40 and a 75 gear oil are not really all that different. As long as there is oil in there I don't think it will matter much it's not like you're pulling a trailer... Yup, and if you change it every 500 miles, you could get away with MAZOLLA

Yeah, a good weight gear oil is stinky .Even when brand new. I'm sure you will be ok. just dirty. I'll bet it still had plenty of lubricating properties left in it

If all else fails, I would try to fabricate one. Maybe some 3/4" stainless tubing, even mild steel tubing.At any rate, I'd be kinda p----d off.Did the can fall off with it?
