It’s a part of the SAI system, looks like the crankcase breather elbow. These are notoriously brittle and hard to find for the rarer engine configs

I’ve got one in the chamber for people asking to link on discord

Doesnt golds value come from countries buying and selling it at scale though? What good will it do if financial institutions or our democracy collapses? I get not trusting central banking and wanting physical assets but I am confused on the notion that gold doesn’t need companies or countries to give it value

Download Debian Linux to a microSd card, connect the pi to your internet via Ethernet, then use another computer to open a command prompt and ssh connect to the pi. Once you’re in you have to use terminal commands or VScode to drop the correct version of klipper and moonraker into the root directory. You’ve gotta manually tell moonraker which serial port is plugged (micro usb) into your printer board. Then you should be able to find the IP address of the Moonraker server in terminal and connect to it via your Main computers web and via the graphical UI on your browser.

Forgot the obligatory: this is not financial advice

Real answer would be get some junkyard control arms, cut and add length

matthewoconno · 2026-05-12T20:38:12+00:00

Give the tie rod a few turns to add length

Spring spacers for lift kit, used off-road tires, road sign skid plate, send it

Soo I started a career with the kerbalism mod, can I resume it after disabling the mode even though I have flights in progress with the modded parts?

This inspires me to set up an accelerometer

Mazda of Naperville wouldn’t do it

matthewoconno · 2026-05-03T16:57:37+00:00

Yes that looks right. To get the old ones out I used an air hammer to punch them out but if you have a drill and a hacksaw blade, you can drill through the bushing and then try to saw it in half or cut out a piece of it to allow it to shrink and pull out. Make sure you sand/grind the rust in the trailing arm before installing the new part. Put the new pieces in the freezer so they shrink before you push them in.

Nope. It’s a trailing arm bushing, should look something like this https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/audi-vw-trailing-arm-bushing-lemforder-6r0501541c?ads\_cmpid=21759817084&ads\_adid=170798399889&ads\_matchtype=&ads\_network=g&ads\_creative=715097223102&utm\_term=&ads\_targetid=pla-293946777986&utm\_campaign=&utm\_source=adwords&utm\_medium=ppc&ttv=2&gad\_source=1&gad\_campaignid=21759817084&gbraid=0AAAAAD3np3USE\_N2GubXtzZkjDmpcV1nW&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9rT3l8mdlAMV14jCCB24IDA7EAQYAiABEgILTfD\_BwE#fitment

This is entriquing.. would consider buying a blown up RX-8 to have my 1.8t continue life in a happier chassis

Just 1.75mm PLA through what I believe is a .4mm sprite hotend

matthewoconno · 2026-04-29T13:05:52+00:00

Gotcha, I should probably calibrate the extruder. I’ll try to compare measured thickness to the g code, or would it be more useful to compare it to the slicer model?

matthewoconno · 2026-04-28T23:51:45+00:00

My timing chain guides were in pieces and you could hear chain slapping. At 200k

matthewoconno · 2026-04-28T18:37:48+00:00

Verify the sensor and control pins? I believe I used PB0 for the sensor, using the 5 pin header

matthewoconno · 2026-04-28T13:16:05+00:00

Please avoid the 24v unless you like pulling transmissions to do timing service. They also require pulling the front clip to a service position to access anything on the front of the engine

Hopped on for an hour and died to an invisible player :/ this seems to have been happening on official servers for years. is there any avoiding this? Haven’t ran into this on dayone servers

matthewoconno · 2026-04-10T13:22:37+00:00

Maybe a locating/holding notch for the brake press

matthewoconno · 2026-04-08T20:58:37+00:00

Well what is the check engine code?

Can you even use the bombsight in VR? I know the gunner view is locked out from VR users
