here goes:

 

this is my last year teaching at my current high school. I'm getting married in August and relocating to a different part of the state. My students love me and we usually joke around back and forth. as a going away prank, 2 of my students decided to jack my truck up and take off one of the rear tires. good joke, goes back a long way in the history of practical jokes. I'm all for having a laugh.

 

8th grade students come to me during 2nd hour and say "Mr. Dontje, someone stole one of your tires!" I've already figured out in my head who's guilty. I'm laughing as I walk out to my truck, see it....and I'm not laughing any more. it's sitting on the drum :drool:

 

now they claim they left it jacked up and "somehow" it ended up on the ground. either the jack lowered itself down, someone lowered it, or it fell out. I then proceeded to ream them a new one, along with my principal and athletic director. I've made an appointment for saturday to get my rear rear axle and rear drum checked out. if there's any damage, they know they'll be paying for it.

 

now, they also will be paying for a new lugnut cover that they dented and scratched, and that's my question. What is the part number for an OEM cover that looks like this. I tried looking up the numbers on the inside cover, but came up with no results.

the athletic director wanted to know if I was going to press charges on them. they're good kids, they just made a mistake...and I'm not about to put anything on their record that might come back to bite them later. if anything is damaged however, they will be covering it completely.

 

so, if anyone has that part number handy. I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
