I have tried, with NO success, till I'm blue in the face, to get Brent to send Richard a means to get back, via his current email address, to reset his logon.

Ken,
Instead of focusing on what you can't do maybe it's time to do what you CAN and simply log in on as a new account and write down the log in info. Once back on Tech can post, link to old posts he made, and lobby with Brent/Bill to get his accounts merged under the new name. Just a thought....

so i need to pull my starter and see if it has an (R) run terminal and hook my coil + to that ?

I had to look up the rose reference from Shakespeare's Romeo and JulietThe phrase doesn't make sense out of context so here is the dialog it came from
Juliet:

O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.

Romeo:

[Aside] Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?

Juliet:

'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.

Romeo:

I take thee at thy word:
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptized;
Henceforth I never will be Romeo.

SMFH, not been a good year. Today marks the 6th death of someone I know this year. Two friends of April’s son, April’s son, a young man who grew up with my son and today Larry a long time friend of April’s and someone who aloud me into his close nit group of people he called friends. (Larry’s son also passed away a couple of months ago)
Sadly the demons of the first 5 took them, April’s friend went in his sleep.
Makes me enjoy my life even the more and am thankful for everyday I’m allowed to have another day...joe

Good to see you here, Richard! Hope you're doing well, and that the relocation works out for you.

is there a repair for a wiper scratch in a windshield ? i dont drive my pinto in the rain for various reasons but one is the wipers are a joke .. my last cruise lap into tennessee i came across a popup downpour and as soon as i turned on the wipers the drivers side wiper flew off .. i was only 5 or so miles from home so i kept on going while looking thru the passenger side of the windshield ,, i did not think with the water splashing so hard that the metal arm rubbing my windshield would do that much damage so quickly .. you can feel it with your fingernail and it is of coarse right in the line of sight as i drive .. i have used the Cracked windshield repair before with success but have not tried to remove a somewhat deep scratch ..you tube is of no help ..

the gift that keeps on giving .. i dont suppose i have posted more than a dozen or two times on here my grief with a few crack heads that i Have the unfortunate pleasure of knowing ,, numerous thefts of property and numerous fruitless calls to the sheriffs department .. even with 4 warrants to one of them they are still out .. recently one of my credit cards was declined .. of coarse i look into it and find 4 thousand $ of unapproved use over the past weekend .. they know that i cant stop anything on a saturday or sunday .. so i check my other bank account and find i have written a check for 6 grand to this same person ..; i havent written a check in 15 years .. no need to .. but i kept a blank defaced one in my wallet for account info ...it is clear as day the check was whitewashed and forged but went thru anyway ...i call the law and get the same run of the mill run around ..can a buddy on here loan 10 grand till i get back on my feet again ..

Ditto what Roger says! Missed you! Hope to see more of you!

I'm still trying to get him back on here although I think it might be a lost cause.
The weather here seems to agree with Richard and I'm hopeful so I hope he'll stay awhile. In the meantime he can just posts as he wishes under my name.

He might consider a new account, maybe TechinspectorOne, realizing that all of his old posts are still there and can be searched for as desired.

Hey Richard you are missed!

another long time no see post .. every since i built my V6 4,3 chevy pinto 20 years ago it has suffered from cold start issues .. even in warm weather .. i have electronic ignition and have wired it from the stock pinto HOT wire from the beginning .. i have recently found that if i hook a hot wire from the + battery to the + on the coil it will fire off immediately regardless if warm or not .. then i simply unhook the hot jumper and can go all day with normal ignition .. can i hook my + ignition to a post on the solenoid and solve this low voltage initial start up issue .. i understand electronic ignition needs 12 volts to operate but i dont know where to get 12 volts on my old points style wiring system . i dont want to go MSD as they have gotten too pricy ..
