some people have never built a Heathkit, more or less a crystal set and they have a difficult time with electrical stuff....

Steve use to tell me "just put it to the wood & forget it".Amazingly in my case that worked.The simple fact remains that the denso does not have to spin the rpms that the others do to push the same volume at a given pressure.The denso pump body main be close to twice the volume of the other pumps (like walbro).


He used to tell me that the telephone posts would look like a picket fence when I got the ME dialed in..LOL then he would give me the cubic money line

I can only go by what my son said how his wife's Photon...but, he said it was much better that it once was.


They also say the new Samsung TouchWiz is light years ahead of the prior version.  But, one can always root the phone and dump it.  As you probably know better than me, Sammy has been passing out rom dumps to guys on the xda forums to play with so hacks should be available immediately


Always aggravates me when they load the phone up with stuff you cannot delete

Beginning to sound like ttipe is right.  I think the pump is okay...probabl y a relay or wiring problem.  More news at 11 :)

Atrix is out of date, but, not a bad phone.  Back in the spring, it looked good.  The Sensation is a nice phone.  It might be second on my list.  I am going with the Galaxy.  No more Iphones for me...Even jail broken, Apple is still a pain.  ATT is the only major phone company in my area..otherwis e I would go Sprint and take their 4.5" version of the Galaxy.

right now, HTC has nothing I want...good phones tho.  I have not heard of many problems with the S2.   Few make as good a phone part as Moto, imo, when it comes to signal.  My son has the evo 3d and it is pretty good.  His wife's Photon works places where his is struggling to stay connected. 

Only problem is that by the time they bring the phones here, they are beginning to introduce the next models overseas....

Before someone pops in and tells me how wonderful, LG's are, save your breath

No argument there...it is just strange that suddenly we are hearing about failures from a pump that has been outstandingly reliable for years-it has been awhile since the twin turbo Supras hit the road.

Steve Y would tell us to quit messing with things and buy a sled, but, there ain't no snow in Texas

Maybe Denso quit making them and someone else has taken them to China?

They had an outstanding reputation for years and suddenly they are failing shortly after install

the software is full of logging hooks...once all that is turned off, it really perks up.  I also overclocked it to 1.5 from 1.2 and added a few other gray market tweaks...for the price, it is a helluva deal.  I see they are going to make a few more..probably out of the parts they had committed to...but, I bet the price does go up some.  the 16 gig for $100 is probably a better deal.  Be interesting to see how android and ubuntu port over.

I managed to snag one of the 32gb fire sale Touchpads.


After upgrading, and some aftermarket clean ups....the damn thing really works well.   They sold 100s of thousands in the past week....one of the best deals I have gotten in a long time.
