V10 poor towing performance

I'm sorry I should have clarified some. the engine family that existed with the v10 in the br/be trucks and prior did not. I was not thinking of current engine family with that statement.

that was my error.

forgive me ken. I was reverting back to the old days and not thinking about the new engines with that statement.

hey speaking of that, he hasnt said anything more in the "diesel dakota" thread either about the "thermal reactors" instead of "catalitic converters" has he?

:))

That's 'cuz Illudium Q-36 explosive space modulators are made from unobtanium. ;-)

Ya mean the 37-syllable compound that uses carbon crystals suspended in a tungsten matrix? (5 bonus points for citing the movie reference)

Yeah - I've been meaning to pick some of that stuff up. :)

The Core.

Nope - another conversation he threw the towel in on.

I'm surprised one other notable know-it-all hasn't shown up to bail him out.

There sure is a pattern here.

You're joking, right? Or did they really tell you that?

Way to put the cheese on the trap, Max... :)

I guess the lack of response means I'm not getting an explanation? I was looking forward to it.

I wanted to point it out before someone bashed you for it. Ya gotta be careful how you say things around here. ;^)

Maybe it was the CKP sensor? If you saved the reciept and you were actually billed for a knock sensor I'd contact the local authorities. You got robbed.

LOL, as much as I hate to burst your bubble, you have every bit as much of that reputation as I do, probably even more lately.

Why'd you automatically assume he was referring to you?

I thought he was talking about Marsh, myself.... :^)

Tom, are we ever going to find out how a 8.0L retards timing under spark knock conditions?

Unfortunately, I suspect that piece of information will elude us for all eternity - much like the mysteries of Stonehenge, Atlantis, and the pyramids of Egypt. This is yet another in a great series of mysteries that man will never fully understand.
