Can't say I listen to either, but I voted for Frank Sinatra for two reasons

 

1. To be different than you

2. Because he share's his first name w/ GM-Trucks.com Senior Moderator of the year.

Love these cage matches. That is a very tough one though. both very respectable.

King for me even though I'm not to cracked up about him doing commercials for Burger King. They should leave that to boy bands not legends

Hey, I just don't wanna end up at the bottom of Lake Michigan with a pair of custom fitted CMNT shoes.  Then I'd have to change my screen name to CMNTLOAFERS81.

Great

 

See what you started here Hal?

 

Anyway,it would have been a tough call for me until B.B. did the B.K. comercials but since he did,I have to go with Old Blue Eyes.

I had to go for ole blue eyes Sinatra.  His music is pretty good, and the Italian and mob blood in me wouldn't dare let me vote otherwise.  :devil:

What's wrong with doing commercials for B.K.? ???

Nothing at all.  If we all had that kind of talent and got an offer to do that for the amount of money that these places pay we would do it too.  Especially if we had ben through all he's been through.

 

He grew up a share cropper, his Mother was a slave and he's had plenty of IRS problems.  He can make money do it, and it's his decision.  No different than MJ or Tiger doing Nike comercials.

 

Oh yeah, I voted for B.B.

Why?

Because he's B.B. King.  He's been through more in his life than most or all of us wil ever go through and he's come out on top.  He a legendary guitar player, and he made the Blues popular in many places it wouldn't have been without him.

Ok, So far Frrank Sinatra has had an early lead, but ol' B.B. King seems to be catching up.

 

This time I'll let this bowt(SP?) go 'til 9:00pm(Eastern) on Wednesday (Not tommorow). Is that cool?

 

For those who didn't participate last time, I will close this thread and the winner will be decided. Most likely I'll pit-up the winner of this match up against last week's winner, Metallica during the Cage match "Tournament of Champions", but I'm not sure, we're in the prelims now, the TOCs aren't for a couple of weeks.

Come on people, let's get some votes going.  (Hopefully for B.B. I'd hate to see him lose)  I think he can pull it out, with your guys help.  :devil:

    • Just did an injector/HPFP replacement on Pepper at 192,400 miles; close enough to 200K, RIGHT? (If 200K is considered life end and to me it isn't). But hey, to each his own.    Have never run a catch can on this vehicle. Back side of every valve looked like a new valve spray painted semigloss black. Port walls looked 'neat' (all a normal result of passive EGR via VVT) Zero build up even in AFM cylinders. Just color. It uses no measurable oil and never has.    At 155,000 I put her on E-85 and a borescope of the cylinders at plug change showed very clean pistons and valve faces. The replaced injector tips looked new. (It was the pump piston seal that was leaking). Oh well, have six good backups.    Still gets 28 mpg on gas (highway average) and over 20 (highway) on alky. UOA's look good and runs as good now as it did when I bought it. Better in fact.    What improvement would a Catch Can provide this motor?     And given all this I expect that IF I installed one I'd see some water/gas/oil vapor accumulation. Byproducts of normal combustion.   Having said that, IF my motor used an appreciable amount of oil I'd consider it a useful 'crutch' until I had the situation corrected OR if bore polished, until I junked it or rebuilt it to stave off repeated plug fouling.    I'm not telling you what I THINK. But what its DONE.          
    • Love the look. I'm a SCSB lover myself.    Two items. 1.) A spacer changes scrub radius but this also changes when we use wheels of different offsets. A little isn't a big deal. 2.) Steel wheels, alloy wheels all have different thickness. Same effect on the stud and lug nut as a spacer. When hub centric the wheel isn't supported by the stud. It's supported by the hub. The stud just keeps it all together.  
    • I had a evap sol go bad a couple weeks ago. . I replaced it.  While watching live data at the time I saw I had some cylinder 1 misfires. No MIL but on live data I could see ~50 at startup and about 70 more after an hour a drive all on cyl 1.  I also noticed that the LTFT were -5% to -15% always.  And that bank 2 is always -3% richer than bank 1. Even across all driving modes, city, highway, etc it’s always 3% richer than bank 1. So I start with the misfire. Swapped coil, plug, and plug wires from 1 to 3. No follow. I got an Injector reseal kit, pulled the D/s injector rail, swapped #1 and #3 injectors, resealed them, reinstalled and retested.  The misfire followed to 3. So I ordered and replaced all 8 injectors, spark plugs, and plug wires. Also replaced the 1 time use fuel pipes under the intake manifold.  Injectors that were in the truck since new were  Part # 12668390.  I replaced them with # 12742701 Got from RockAuto. Pretty certain they’re genuine and the correct ones. I called a friend at a parts store who told me “the 12742701 were the correct superseded part # for the originals I was replacing”. So started truck after replacing all that and it’s running -15 - -30 LTFTs. I reset the fuel trims with GDS2 and drove it for a 60 miles trip each way. There have been no changes in the LTFTs.  I checked if the HPFP was leaking into the crankcase. I removed the pvc and watched the trims. No difference.  I checked the alcohol content and it was at 10%  I’m out of ideas here. Truck seems to run great. Just always rich on the fuel trims.  Anyone with any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I ran an injector balance test just for the heck of it and it came back this. I’m confused.  I have gds2 and some other diag tools if anyone knows of anything I should test next.
