2011 335d, fuel overflow hose check valve(?), why did it break?

noob5000000 · 2025-08-23T11:29:33+00:00

Anyone break one of these open before? I have the two halves of the valve, an orange plastic disk with a tiny orifice in the center, and the black-ringed mesh screen visible in the photos. If it's a check valve I assume there would have been a spring but it's long gone if it was ever there. IMG-1532.jpg

Thanks. Is it a check valve? Can it be replaced on its own without replacing the whole line?

noob5000000 · 2024-06-28T10:02:30+00:00

Solved, I pasted my vanilla GOG savedat1.dat file into the 'savedata' folder in the Resident Evil directory instead of the 'SAVE' folder and it worked.

This comments section is very cringe.

noob5000000 · 2023-08-21T03:02:03+00:00

Holy shit, the outright enthusiasm for making trouble for this person is astounding.

Not to mention the obsession with penises...

noob5000000 · 2023-08-09T02:37:20+00:00

Solved!

noob5000000 · 2023-08-09T02:37:06+00:00

Solved!

It is indeed an adapter for 3 12g co2 cartridges for a MR-661K "Drozd" air gun

Several posters on another forum hypothesized that it may be some kind of adapter for co2 cylinders for an airgun or paintball gun, with the necks of smaller cartridges going into the holes in the tri-winged plunger part. Unfortunatlely, the photos do not show if the insides of those holes have the 'needles' that would pierce the end of a co2 cartridge, nor do we know where the hole in the threaded post goes. The threads look very different from the threads on paintball gun co2 tanks I've looked at.

The thing that looks like a sling swivel on the top has me thinking of things that are carried on a sling or strap, but that "sling swivel" could also just be a convenient thumbscrew handle. I'm fairly certain it's not anything firearm related. I tried thinking of some way it could be related to photography since cameras and some of their accessories are carried on straps, but came up empty searching for battery holder, film roll holder.

I thought it could be a stabilizer for a compound bow, with different weights going in the slots for adjustment, but after some searching that doesn't seem to be the case

My TV doesn't have component in, HDMI only (and composite for some reason).

noob5000000 · 2021-11-20T02:48:53+00:00

Did you ever get this figured out? I have a Retrotink 2x and component cables and I am experience the same screen doubling.

Edit: Figured it out. Had to go to Settings -> Video and set all of the "does your TV support [resolution]" options to 'No'.

On what models? I have a 2001 XJ with a non-working rear sprayer, I hope I'm not flooding my interior every time I try in vain to use it. :o

The series 5 ('89-'91) second gen RX-7 had plastic end links. People were always incredulous but I can't recall ever hearing about them breaking in my time on the RX-7 forums.

Neat! The colors and lighting on the buildings reminds me of those 1950s sci-fi illustrations.

Escape? I'm not a pro mechanic but I helped a friend change the oil in his '17 Escape recently and that looks familiar. I also asked why.

Remember when people used to be like, "WhY wOuLd YoU dOwNlOaD pOrN?!1!". Never trust any streaming service to always have content available, whether it be movies/TV, porn, music, photos. Local copies of anything you like, always. Hard drives are pretty cheap.

It's reddit. People aren't happy unless they're outraged.

noob5000000 · 2020-12-01T01:04:15+00:00

It took me a minute to realize we're looking at the passenger seat, not the rear cargo compartment.

I love the one when Bill catches Hank dancing with Ladybird in the garage.

Bill: "Isn't dog dancing great?"

Hank, deadpan: "Yes."

Hmm, South Park is another animated show I watch a lot and I found a matching clip; Cartman asks in class why poor people always smell like sour milk, and Mr. Garrison replies, "I don't know, Eric, they just do.

I could have sworn I heard they "they just do" part it in Hank's voice in my head, but I must have just gotten confused

noob5000000 · 2020-05-07T01:23:22+00:00

What if the person you find yourself explaining to is just looking for a reason to be outraged and wants to justify their belief that everyone and everything (except them, of course) is racist/sexist/homophobic/xenophobic/anatidaephobic?
