obfuscate 

 

Soooo, we now have to google words to keep up🤔, this post is getting kind of boring. Intellectual jabs are not nearly as funny as the standard red neck variety. Not saying I won't keep following it though😬

Absolutely!   What people are thinking is oil condensate is fuels dilution. Use a better oil, tune your engine up.  Generally only  need for blow-by capture or catch cans are racing entities who have

Change your handle to TARBABY.

You obfuscate and then turn in verbal circles. 
Feel sorry for anyone wanting a clear answer. You and other simpletons make it nearly impossible to share science.  
Sign of the mentality dominating our current days. 
You don’t know the difference between a system and valve name. Let alone physics of IC engines and their emissions systems. 
 

 

Can you please respond to the post where I pointed out the misinformation your clearly posting.

 

You keep claiming I'm confusing and spreading misinformation. You've said that you've re-read the thread, but I don't think you have. You talk about me going in circles, but I think that perhaps your just dizzy... And seeing things from all the donuts you've spun 😉

 

This is hilarious... wow..

 

do you mind sharing which engine company you own, or is it owned? I think this would be a great thread for potential customers to review. You know, get an inside view of the man behind the metal, and what they could probably expect for performance?

 

*edit*

 

I also want to point out that you liked a post by TxTruckMan on the previous page. But you failed to recognize that he was indicating what, "I should say". Not what should be said, to me. 

 

You may want to correct that because it contradicts everything you've been saying.

 

And the very fact that your ignorant to what's actually transpired in this thread, along with resulting to names and/or insults only reinforces the prison you've built around yourself. 

 

People aren't stupid, but please continue to drive that prison further into the ground. Nobody want's this to happen again.

Based on this thread explaining anything factual to you is a challenge I am failing at.  Reread whole thread from beginning and maybe learn.  If I anyone is wearing a crown its a cone of confusion from reading your commentary.  

I wear a crown in Fortnite because I'm decent at the game.  Is that the same thing?

 

BTT:  Catch cans are bad.  Don't use them on the L87.

I love Fortnite but Warzone is better and has been better since the end of season one

 

TLDR: EGR and VVT are not the same thing. VVT does something similar to EGR but you wouldn't call a rectangle a square now would you? 🤣 

 

I'm outta this hell hole. Yall mfers need jobs or some ******

I like your signature. Very... pathetic and sad.

 

Resorting to insult's but out of reach and touch from the person and/or person you look to belittle. Strap on a set and start acting like the wisdom you claim to be. I don't care if its directed at me, someone else, or no one specific. You think it gives you power, that you have knowledge and wisdom unspoken. 

 

What it says, is that your poor looser. 

 

Wait... Perhaps, no but it can't be! We have the same information, same facts but... We see it differently? Huh, sounds damn familiar for some reason.

Funny, I was only quoting you when I said, "egr system". I mean, one would think you know what your talking about, right? But you already know this, because you re-read this thread... right?

 

*edit*

 

Science? You haven't attempted to share any science relevant to LT engines. Yes, your mentality is very disturbing, I stated that earlier. 

 

Can you see yourself? Step back from the situation and look. Your arguing things that make sense to no one. They make sense to no one because your argument isn't relevant to the engines in this thread.

I don't have a job.  It was cheaper to stop working than to put 3 kids in childcare.  Gotta love Southern California.  I'm not collecting benefits either.  Never applied.  Didn't think it would be morally right.

Some of us are retired. We get giggles telling people change your oil every 3K miles or your engine will blow. Or put on a catch can or your engine will varnish and burn oil. The problem is in certain cases it can be true. That’s what GM has done to us with these Frankenstein engines. Now the next question. Does cold medicine work? Or is your cold not as bad as last time? Covid…… never mind. image.png.6e9de5ca7d34f38680e1b9e5d5f3822e.png

I don't know about you but I woke this morning and realized that continuing to hope that reason would be effective  was in error. It works on ignorance but not stupidity and at times I have a hard time telling the difference in a person and I hopelessly believe long past reason in people that are past hope. I'm sure now;  I'm also aware I do not have to subject myself to it.

 

I spent some time in worry about those who would be hurt that were innocent but then realized the reasonable people can not be. Their reason will protect them if they choose to use it.  The IGNORE button also works and I choose to use it. 

 

I love freedom of choice.  I'm choosing to quit giving stupid a platform for attention.

I got a great idea to settle the argument. Do what I do. Once or twice a day “mash” the $h!t out of the gas, burn some rubber, watch the speedo go up to 75 to 80, let off and set the cruise on 70.  This will get rid of all the “contamination”/burn it off and be on your way!!  Has worked well for me. I’ve had 4 of these engines and never ran a catch can.  Plus, it allows me to enjoy the Corsa Catback exhaust. 
 

But gotta say, it is quite amusing what is posted…………..

Grumpy, do you actually fail to recognize that I learned how to argue from You? It should look very familiar. And quite honestly your in trouble, because you've been teaching this whole forum how to argue for some time. And one by one they're going to get to a place where they've had enough of your bull ******.

 

I will point out again, that you claim wisdom and knowledge while ignoring the facts that stare you in the face. You keep tripping and stumbling over the mess you've strewn about, trying to make it back to safety. Grabbing at any power you might be able to hold onto.

 

Sad...

 

Resorting to name calling is a new low for you. The funny thing is stupidity doesn't Triumph, nor does ignorance. 

 

You choose to see what you wish to avoid harming yourself.

I'm aware, I'm on my phone and half the time spell check changes a word on me 😉

 

Was this this a spelling contest? 

 

I wish you hadn't said that... now it's all going to start up again. More fuel for the fire they have created 😪

Sorry. My 2 cents.

I think it's sad to see adults act like children. Ego's need to be controlled some times.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      www.enginelabs.com/news/what-i-learned-today-bearing-clearances-vs-oil-viscosities/     www.enginelabs.com/news/oil-viscosity-can-the-numbers-be-misleading/ The Big Lie… Coming full circle to the reason Lake discusses the Porsche engines in particular. Based on the 2000 samples in the SPEEDiagnostix database, increasing the oil viscosity in these engines, even those run on the track, showed no significant difference in results.   The smoking gun was in the oil chemistry. That is where the data shows higher instances of more wear. Molybdenum was the key; the higher the amount, the less the wear. Speed postulates that higher viscosity oils have more thickeners to artificially inflate their viscosity numbers. These thickeners lose viscosity under shear, and the result is that not all oils of the same viscosity have the same shear stability.   Having enough viscosity is the most important characteristic, but according to Speed, once that required viscosity level is reached, additive chemistry matters more than additional viscosity. Speed also states, oil pressure problems on the racetrack aren’t a viscosity problem; it’s an oiling system problem. Running a thicker oil is just a band-aid for an underlying oiling system problem.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Can it still be Assembled II?   Viscosity on the decline by various means. Heat on the rise making that worse. Engine RPM in the tank. Smaller motors with more boost trying to emulate an electric motor. Full torque, zero rpm. Then we will triple the OCI. Argh.    But wait....there is more. LSPI has pushed a shift from Ca to Mg and as that cost more PLUS the run to lower sulfur compounds the TBN is moving in the wrong direction for the increased OCI's demanded.    That not being enough to placate a demand for a parameter they can't measure the other sulfur bearing compounds are also under attack. That would be zinc and phosphorus sulfonate compounds. To some degree those are being replaced with boron esters and others, i.e. titanium ect. All of which have shorter service lives. And there there is the "Secrete Sauce" marketing for AW adds that 'Can't be detected by UOA's" but trust me because I (the blenders) never ever lie.    Spoiler alert; ALL additives are sacrificial! Smaller amounts of the old blended with less robust versions of the new do not equal longer service lives. So what are the blenders recommending? Wait for it.......   MOVING THE GOAL POSTS! OMG      Let's declare the long standing TAN/TBN crossover irrelevant and tell people that soot is a great 'graphite' based lubricant which can aid tribo films. Wait, what? Let's declare that the standards used for oxidation and nitration were to conservative and can be expanded. Let's tell them that because GDI fuel dilution, although being a VISCOSITY KILLER and an acid generator is actually okay because we have better base oils that limit viscosity failure limits. (Said knowing this is measured in fractions of a centipoise and in bases not commonly used in shelf oils)   Lying from the heart is not just the new normal but we have a public, a very young public, that is so ignorant of the facts and so sure of their "RESEARCH" into AI driven models base in regurgitated  instead of scientific research based unvarnished, peer reviewed FACTS that the incoming guard is loosing their grip on reality and the OEM's are tickled pink while the blends bend the knee.    You have an ever limited set of tools to work with. And sooner or later those will be taken from you as the API and the EPA strangle the last remaining fluids from the system. What you have left is your wits. If you care to use them.    At some point in the very near future it will not longer be possible to do "What is best for the machine", and be replaced with "The best you have access too". You WILL be rewarded with half the life and twice the cost. That isn't that hard to predict.

      Software Update

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I trust you saw the other comment where he knew what he was talking about !. Yes, these darned newer vehicles with all their so smart they are stupid technology, goes and drains the battery down. As you might see my other comment, I installed a Noco 5 battery tender under the hood and at this point still have the cord routed so I have to lift the hood and then plug it in but am typically parked in a garage or a shed so its not risking the engine hood in the wind. That way I am assured or hopefully so of not finding I have a battery drawn down and can't even start the truck and that also damages the battery to draw it down too far.

      Software Update

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I guess no surprise my guesses were wrong !, at least now I know if I ever happen to see it grayed out in my own truck as to what is going on.    I never happened to catch my truck with it grayed out, it seemed every time I would test to see if there was an update it never found anything and yet more than once I would check to see if there was an update and there was nothing, then a day later or even that same morning I would drive to town and after more than one engine shut down in town as I did my errands it would pop up that there is an update now ready to install and the only place I have a connection to the internet is at home by wifi so its not as if it grabbed the download while driving. I don't trust these new vehicles due to all the crap they can decide to do while sitting for some days not running and run the battery down so most of the time if I know the truck will sit for a few days I plug in the battery tender I have mounted under the hood and so the only time the truck must have downloaded software was when it was sitting in the garage where the signal is awful but I have that tender plugged in and somehow it managed to download it. I honestly detest all this crap, way to easy to leave a person stranded.    Since I don't trust any of it I don't do the install of the already downloaded software until I get home and sometimes have even sat in the truck to watch what its doing as its going through the process to its conclusion as its not like it is set up that it will tell you the next time you fire up the engine that the update that was initialed actually installed or installed properly. Yes I can go into the updates and see the list. After I go through the install where I feel its safe to do so in case it breaks down as a result, I will plug in the battery tender after the fact to recharge as I don't know how much power its taking just to do the install and that can take a while for it to install.

      Thanks for the reply. All settings were correct and the engine was off, as it was supposed to be. It turned out to be something simple. I took a drive for about an hour. I must have had a low battery without knowing it. The voltage gauge on the display looked ok. At the end of my drive, I shut off the engine and the update prompt came up and it updated normally. It’s ironic because one of the features of the update is a reduction of battery drain.
