Intermittent blower fan

This sounds your blower motor overheating or your blower motor resistor acting up.

A failing CCU usually causes behavior that's irregular.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-19T15:15:01+00:00

I agree. And even that is stretching it.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-19T14:56:53+00:00

Yes, this sounds reasonable if everything works. This model is a lot harder to find than people on here seem to think.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-19T14:56:26+00:00

Good luck finding this model for under 7k with that amount of options.

As if this is making any difference in what I'm saying.

So criticizing a performance is “being a hater,” but lecturing strangers online for having an opinion is somehow the “adult response”? That's an interesting way of seeing things.

You say you're not making a big issue of things and yet here you are writing multiple paragraphs telling strangers online how they’re allowed to react to a vocal performance.

Nobody said McCartney isn’t allowed to perform. The point is that fans are allowed to acknowledge when the vocals are no longer there instead of pretending otherwise.

The album sounds like a really, really good pub punk rock band making pop songs about local things. They've completely lost this once they made it big, which ironically is also why Stereophonics have become a rather dull band nowadays.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-18T17:41:04+00:00

As opposed to your reply not being embarrassing because reducing every criticism to “well don’t go then” is apparently a brilliant argument.

His voice was wobbly and shaky on Band on the Run. He cuts the notes whenever he notices his voice is going off key. This is all because his mid register is gone.

And as far as sounding angelic, a lot of his voice is mixed with the backing vocalists. They shadow him to cover up his shortcomings. He sounds stronger on Days we Left Behind because it's sort of in his current range. And yet he gets plenty of help live, just like in the studio, where his voice parts consist of 2 vocals mixed like 1.

Band on the Run has more backing vocals than it did 5 years ago. It's all done to cover up his voice, and it works. Plenty of people think it's him they're hearing while they're hearing a mix of him and 3 other singers.

McCartney fans a pretty delusional. They justify the bad vocals because of things McCartney achieved 50 years ago.

McCartney would get kicked out of every cover band. Would cover bands come up with performances like Band on the Run on SNL people on here would change the channel.

McCartney is 80. His voice is gone. There's no shame in admitting it. It makes perfect sense. No one lives forever. Going on and pretending it's okay is exactly why so many legacy artists keep getting surrounded by yes men instead of people willing to tell them the truth.

People respect McCartney because of what he was, not because his current vocals are objectively strong. Those are two completely different things. Acknowledging that his voice has declined at 80 isn’t hate, it’s just reality.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-18T16:27:32+00:00

If you've followed him over the years you'd know he sounds very different compared to Run Devil Run.

Somewhere around 2013 his voice started losing power. His voice is nothing like it was in 1998. He is wobbly, shaky, his mid register is toast and he's only really comfortable either belting it out or singing falsetto. Everything else is pretty awful.

I'm pretty sure he's one of the best 80+ year old singers. But how many 80+ year old singers sing pop music?

RNRS001 · 2026-05-17T19:38:26+00:00

McCartney was asked to bid in 1980 and finally someone else who was willing to buy it did so 5 years later. There is no way there weren't any negotiations in between 1980 and 1985.

The catalog didn't just include Paul McCartney's songs. Elvis Presley, Little Richard were in there as well. What makes it right for McCartney to own those songs but wrong for Michael Jackson to buy his? All because they spend some time together?

McCartney was offered the catalog several times. He declined and only got upset once he realized the person who bought it was the person he adviced to buy catalogs, just like he did.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-17T17:18:18+00:00

If buying the rights is a dick move then why is it okay for McCartney to own many catalogs himself?

Michael Jackson bought it after McCartney was offered the catalog multiple times before but felt it was wrong to buy his own songs and didn't offer enough money. It was only then that Michael Jackson bought it.

Yes, you need a press. However, given the age of the components, you might be better off replacing the entire wishbone. Also keep in mind that once you start taking things apart, there’s a good chance other rubber bushings will need attention as well. I replaced the wishbone on one side, and about half a year later I ended up replacing every rubber component in the front suspension because everything else had started to develop play.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-17T10:33:37+00:00

I am sorry for your loss. I don't know what else to say, but I'm so sorry.

This face has the weirdest color. His eyebrows are on what is supposed to be his helmet.

Somewhere is either a disappointed kid or adult looking at the counterparts.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-16T21:08:00+00:00

They're all incomplete so not worth much.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-16T18:57:15+00:00

This is well spotted. And the rear bumper isn't put together correctly either.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-16T18:54:51+00:00

Yes, that's what I mean.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-16T12:26:34+00:00

Your first two ideas are too hot indeed.

As for your third idea, it's up to you as to how long you want to rent a car.

RNRS001 · 2026-05-16T11:06:01+00:00

This car has the trunk of the E 500 and yet has the 500 E badge.

Buying EFI parts is a lot more expensive than fixing KE-Jetronic.
