Friday night saw a school bus ( 40 10 years olds on board) on highway 12 out side of Roi Et stop and the driver got out and bought 2 large Chang's from a local Thai restaurant start to drink a beer as he got back onboard. UN FORKING BELIEVABLE.

But a guy like that will always have a beer, he buys it NOW where he knows he can, he will STILL have a beer from somewhere, or buy before his job route.

If folk want a beer they will find a beer................

I have got to buy yet another rear bumper for my trusty steed....... .....

To think I passed a heavy goods vehicle driving test..... ......Weeeeell, that was 45 years ago....

The bearing will run continuously which is what fails, same as a turbo. Over time in can increase failure. Do I do either myself ? Only because of getting the kids in and out the car.

It does not run all the time. The AC compressor only runs with the electric clutch engaged, triggered by the sensor. When not compressing it stops, engine running normally. Lift the hood and look. Hear the loud click - clutch engaged, AC compressor turns. Loud click, clutch disengages, AC compressor stops rotating.

Your right, the compressor does not run all the time but the pulley does, that pulley uses a bearing.

If you think you have stainless continue living the dream!!!!!!!55555555555

Have a look at the pic from to original post. See the welded joint between the bar and bracket. It is stainless steel most likely Tig welded.

It is more than likely the lower grade 304 as opposed to the better marine grade 316L. However, it in NOT tin or anything else coated.stainless steel.jpg

If it was anything else like mild steel it would have been stick (arc) welded which results in usually much wider weld seams.

If steel I would have thought mig welded, not arc. Arc is too messy for that type of work.

Possibly because shaking hands is not a Thai custom. Nor is the current craze for fist-bumping. You never know where those sweaty hands have been! Some Thais view a handshake as merely the symbolic touching of hands.

The 'wai' is both hygienic and respectful.

Shaking hands?.......Disgusting habit............

Kiss me on the cheek Costas and I would probably give you a Liverpool kiss, a good nut on your nose.

Scouse Kenny

That's why I always give a soft kiss on the cheek of whoever I meet......Thai or farang...........

Looking forward meeting you people.....................

Is that BangkokJulia?

Julia when are you coming to Thailand?

Costas wants to meet you.....................

Young man, you would do well to mind your p's and q's when it comes to BJ.

She has friends and mentors in high places.

In her presence you should prostrate yourself at her feet and apologise profusely for being totally unworthy of being in her presence.

You will kindly resist from taking this young ladys name in vain again.

Heed the words of RGS Costas, BJ is a protected species.

btw BJ is not a species it is a activity....look likes TCI need some further research...

I would love to research a couple of things...............

It's because they do not know how too.

Do any farangs here know the difference between a farangland handshake if a man or a woman.......?

Warpspeed..................... ......................Sorry warpy..............

Blimey........... ...........Wish I did look like that..............But I don't............ ...................

Got my photos done in town, first class BUT, the background is more white than grey, in fact I would say it is white.....

Anyone had a problem at Trendy with this issue.....?

I stopped buying Fords in 1973, had a mk2 cortina what a bag of sh..e. Never again.

Hmmmmm, a very reliable car. I mini cabbed one for a year, noooo probs at all....

If you think you have stainless continue living the dream!!!!!!!55555555555

My Vigo grill mesh is stainless/S..........Been on the ride for about 6 years, noooooooooooo rust and as bright as the day I fitted it....

Cash milkers from Thai folk have a problem now.....................

Fink you will find that the first world countries gamble on what flu is going to "hit", a vaccine is produced to try and fend off their gamble stuff.

You fink that happens here........?

That's what 'flu shots are for.

Which flu..........?

Stainless NO CHANCE, just chrome plated tin.

Do you know that for a fact? Because I have a Carryboy pamphlet right in front of me that describes the nudge bar as stainless steel. If it is what you say it is, give us some evidence.

Still waiting to hear from you mykthemin, or are you just full of it?

I dented my rear bumper........... ...........Went to my local spares shop to replace it...........He said............Chrome or stainless..................I was surprised that they had a S/S bumper....

I said the cheap one......

Would suggest a 9mm & a .38in revolver......As for the guy................Stuff is always there if one chooses a route.......RIP.

Trans has a tattoo......................
