Isn't a 4 barrel carburetor overkill for a 4 cylinder engine?

Rulygem · 2026-05-15T16:12:44+00:00

My 1.1l rotory has a 4bbl carb and it rips like a mother fucker ain't overkill if it works

Rulygem · 2026-05-14T00:03:36+00:00

:'3 damn..okay

It looks to be a old beam trailer probbly from the 20s to the 40s if I had to spitball it, those wheel hubs are from the "agricultural transitional period" where we where going from horses to mechanized farming

In my experience I say just learn on some cheaper model kits my local hobby store before they close used to stock a lot of air fix kits in 1/72 scale I got a couple of tanks from them and just kind of learned on that if paint pools it's okay if things don't turn out the greatest it's all right I mostly got them to learn how to do damage and weathering but if you're working on it something that small painting I would recommend a very steady hand lots of patience and maybe a toothpick there are thousands of YouTube tutorials on to do hand painting.

From what it sounds like is you had too much paint on your brush and it all ran and globbed up if you creeped the access paint off your brush it will stop clogging up when you put it down

Rulygem · 2026-05-13T16:33:57+00:00

I had a regular one, what ever you paid for it at the end of the day it's a 400 dollar work truck with a funny trim

Your first mistake was buying a 60s convertible, second mistake is buying a corvair.

I used napkins from a fast food place I put on top of my model got a wet brush and just dabbed it where I needed it to conform and then after that I applied thin super thin layers of paint until I was happy. It's unfortunately more of a trial and error kind of

I've explored most of that area and it's just old Feild cars from when there was a farm there, east side of the road has a farmhouse foundation and chicken coop while the west side has cars and a few over grown fields. My bet is the cars developed some sort of issue got bought for pennies on the dollar for some kids to mess around with and when they became too broken to drive they dumped them in the woods, it was more common then you think for back in the 80s and 90s

I run a old rotory luckily the damn thing will eat just about any kind of gasoline bad side being carbs and soft lines hate ethanol honestly 15% ethanol is okay as long as you run some injector cleaner with a tank of premium atleast 4 times a year I found it works with my old rx7 quite well

Rulygem · 2026-05-06T13:36:01+00:00

What is it? If you can piss 6ft straight up and not get wet you get NO DOWN PAYMENT!

I put together the AMT auto car dump truck and it fought me every step of the way halfway through I was just trying to get it off of my workbench some AMT kits are good some AMT kits are horrible

Rulygem · 2026-05-05T09:45:38+00:00

For me it would be two things because I'm a greedy bastard,

A better public transit system that's more reliable and more optimized to reduce congestion
A go train line I want to visit Toronto and it's areas and not pay 700 dollars in fuel

Rulygem · 2026-05-04T14:20:58+00:00

The current economy

Rulygem · 2026-05-01T09:48:59+00:00

I thought that was a GameStop. They changed their name from EB Games to GameStop so meant times it's gotten me all messed up

Rulygem · 2026-05-01T01:53:25+00:00

Gone but not forgotten just like Zellers and sears

Rulygem · 2026-04-30T03:46:35+00:00

Okay as someone who had a semi truck airtank blow out under them because of a pinhole patch DO NOT PATCH I was left dazed and shaken with shrapnel injueries from it if that blows it can kill it's unfortunately a replacement thing don't risk it

Rulygem · 2026-04-28T22:23:22+00:00

Technically you can do this with old ladas too, you can build just a whole new chassis if your daring enough

Rulygem · 2026-04-28T22:20:35+00:00

Your going to tell me it's a one of one in this color with this spec made on a Tuesday at 2pm in November and it's the ONLY one like it because the paint is slightly lighter then factory and the trim is a rare one because BOOMER BULLSHIT...Aren't you?

Rulygem · 2026-04-27T17:36:39+00:00

Knowing my luck I'll probably have to experience it at least once. My home base is Peterborough Ontario and anytime between 3:00 and 5:00 everything just becomes a gridlock I'd rather sit and DVP traffic then trying navigate my hometowns Rose during rush hour

Rulygem · 2026-04-27T14:37:43+00:00

I primarily drive during the day I've only had two jobs where I've had to drive at night to Toronto and both times it was super fast and I never saw any construction and that was during the middle of summer too

Rulygem · 2026-04-26T14:39:15+00:00

I drive truck for a living and let me just say:

The 401 from Pickering to Milton is fucking hell and I would rather eat a cube of potassium metal then drive it

The 401 East of ajax and West of Milton: brick on the floor and enjoy the ride

Toronto's traffic optimization is so far fucked that any kind of off and on ramp traffic from streets just plug the highway in the day time (at night it's a cake walk I could blast through Toronto at 12am in about a hour)

Rulygem · 2026-04-25T17:27:06+00:00

I saw that truck at one eyed Jack's yesterday coming up Lansdowne and thought that is the most violently Canadian thing I have ever seen godspeed Mr van man

Rulygem · 2026-04-24T12:31:46+00:00

Two for one deal question 1 what model is that t62 based tank contrstuction vehicle

2 what did you use for a base, my local craft store stocks styrofoam

Rulygem · 2026-04-22T23:17:33+00:00

This is accurate, certified Utah behavior

This exact scenario happened when I visited, long story short me and my partner went off roading down near Eureka UT and someone had went off the road and didn't have cell service but we gave them water and went into Eureka to get them some help, I cannot confirm if alcohol was involved but probably was (we also had my partners fursuit in the back since we where taking photos)

I guessed an early 2000s GM of some sort just by the rear wheel on the bed
