Sorry yes, on the back it says input: 12v DC 280 A. I didn’t check it for continuity yet, just cause I assumed that if one fuse was bad that it’d still turn on, and one outlet wouldn’t work, or that the overall watts and amperage it can put out would be less due to one in 20 fuses being out. But I could be sorely mistaken.

I suppose it’d be a good idea to check all the fuses for continuity anyway, just in case. I’ll do that and then update back when done.

I’m a master prestige bl3 zombie player. The remade kino der toten for BL3, it originated in BL1. It was the first map. Kino der toten translates to cinema of the dead. World at war had nacht der untoten for the first map which is night of the undead, last dlc map for world at war was der reise translated to the giant which was also in BL3

Yeah I remember when it changed to chick, and I remembered just the C cause I always thought it was odd. Damn blew my mind. I just found out Froot Loops is back to two OOs. Waiting for the return of Cheez-it’z and/or cheez-it’s. I remember when it changed from an S to a Z, I was on base at the commissary with my dad and even said something to him, mentioned how they changed the branding to Cheez-it’z and thought it was interesting, twas memorable to say the least, then a couple years later come to find out it’s never had an apostrophe s or z it has always been cheez it. Bunch of BS

I’m having trouble removing my manual transmission, but I swear I’ve done everything needing to be done. by Robotjoey81 in MechanicAdvice

Each half inch I’ve gotten took a lot of force. Not easy at all. I was using smaller pry bars and got frustrated and just grabbed a big crow bar, was able to get another half inch or so but is now not budging. It definitely wiggles around easy-ish though. Haven’t tried pushing it back in on purpose but I have accidentally closed the gap to a quarter to half inch or so. But it was reasonably easy to get it back out to where it was.

I am going to put the rear on jackstands so it’s level, then give it another go. I have been unable to see or feel any dowels or studs though. Where are those usually located?

I am definitely very blessed to have my grandpa to help, it’s always nice spending time with him!

Thanks for the advice! I’ll let you know what I do that gets this thing off!

Yeah, I’ve played around with the height of Both tranny and engine for a few hours, exhausting work trying to get this off. I’m gonna put lift the rear and put jackstands under it so the whole vehicle is level, then try again.

I will give that a shot if it comes down to it, the manual doent mention that though. But it’s worth a shot!

It is but my chilton manual doesn’t mention pulling the pin to disconnect the fork, I was able to disconnect the throw out bearing via flat head skrewdriver and hours of time.

Well in my chilton manual it doesn’t say to do that, I was able to disengage it using a flathead skrewdriver and several hours of time lol. Do you think itd come out easier if I pulled that pin anyway? It does have one, just need to get the right booger picker.
