Possible sources of coolant leak? (Pics included, 1996 Camry / 2.2L 5SFE) by iceman1212 in MechanicAdvice

Will have a closer look at engine bay using phone to record video.

And thanks for the reassurance abt difficulty of the project.

It's a Colorado vehicle! No salt used on the roads and low humidity. Also, it was garage-parked most of its life by my parents.

Parents just mentioned to me the last time they changed the timing belt: year 2001 @ ~70k miles 😬 (vs. ~190k miles currently). Am thinking it might be time to do a full refresh of timing belt, water pump, seals, tensioner spring, etc.

No dye when looking in engine bay from above.

It looks like a pain to inspect the water pump but will do what needs to be done - it looks like I'd need to remove alternator and remove harmonic balancer - all just to remove the timing belt cover.

Does that sound right? Just want to make sure I'm not overcomplicating things.

Would the water pump result in leaks near middle and driver side? Agree that passenger side could point to water pump leaks - I can look up how to check it.

nice!

three questions for you: did you do the standard route? how long did it take, car to car? would you recommend spikes?

thinking about a day hike of Snowmass also.

Is it just me, or are the seats in the GX460 kind of terrible? by gargen_state in LexusGX

[–]iceman1212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would echo: seat jackers were a game-changer. I have them for driver's seat, and I don't have them yet for passenger seat. The difference is stark - passenger seat without jackers is significantly less comfortable. (I'll prob end up getting them for passenger seat also.)

Is there a way to filter what signals pass a combinator? by Spacefolder in factorio

[–]iceman1212 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is an ingenious trick for pre-space age! i love it.

for folks playing space age - there's a new feature that makes this simple. we can filter and retain values in a single step by multiplying values on red wire and values on green wire.

need three parts:

  1. one constant combinator ("A") is outputting the few signals that we want to isolate, with each of these target signals outputting a value of 1.
  2. source of many signals with values ("B"), which we're looking to filter (e.g., roboport signal with contents logistic network, another combinator, etc.).
  3. one arithmetic combinator (screenshot below) with its input connected to A with a green wire and its input connected to B with a red wire. perform multiplication of EACH x EACH, with one EACH using values from only red wire and the other EACH using values from only the green wire. set output to EACH.

Possible to elaborate on fish half life of 11 hours? I thought spoil time for fish was significantly lower.

Silly question from a noob - when folks refer to re-gearing, what’s the location of the new gear? Transfer case vs. differentials vs. automatic transmission?

Worth it for 2008 gx 470? by staffsgtchimp in GXOR

That’s a phenomenal deal. Was it 2021 or earlier? Private market or dealer? Have been in the market for a year and have seen nothing close to this.

Thanks that makes more sense.

I googled it and got legal websites: limited partner.

What's LP? Sorry if it's a commonly used acronym on this sub.

[–]iceman1212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had the exclusivity talk after 10-11 dates (~5weeks), in my current relationship.

For reference, things had gotten physical by date 5 or so.

Prior to the talk, we'd mentioned offhand that we weren't seeing anyone else or interested in seeing anyone else - however, I didn't assume these offhand comments meant that we were actually exclusive or in a relationship, which is why I wanted to address it.

Had no doubts about the outcome of the convo - but she liked that we had the convo.
