    I use a PCV that was intended for a Mazda or Toyota engine of similar size. Moss had a kit which came with a PCV for a large American engine and oil consumption was heavy. The engine consumes virtually no oil with the Japanese PCV.

    Jeremy, I've read it - commas can really matter!

    Anam, great, song, that!

  • anamnesis12 December 2025

    Here's another couple of belters of spelling lessons.

    Lol Bill.

    Not sure I 'entirely' agree though. But yes, ok, it can be read that way. A bit imprecise.

    But in any event I'm not any kind of journalist, and not writing for published media. It's just a bbs, and my mistakes don't matter much. 😉.

    Whereas I do expect what I read in the likes of the Telegraph, or even the Sun, to be double and triple checked for grammar an...

    Eats shoots and leaves or eats, shoots and leaves, Bill?

  • Bill B12 December 2025

    Anam, may I correct you then? Grammer?

    Also, the comma between "report" and "that's" changes the intended meaning of the sentence. It now reads as if the act of reading a sentence is, in itself, almost "unintelligible".

    Just sayin'. 😉

    Yeah, yeah you're going to check everything I write now aren't you. Or maybe get AI to check it. 🤣

    Just a bit of banter,...

    The difference between the two angles at either end of the propshaft is only 0.75°. I wouldn't have thought that was significant.

  • anamnesis12 December 2025

    Yep, I think I remember the bed reduction applause too Guy. A bit like the so called end of cold war premium. Short lived, and shortsighted.

    As for the headlines, AI. I wonder if AI is being used by lazy journalists, or simply used to replace journalists.

    Another thing I've noticed, frequently, is the appalling grammer and spelling in some written news reports. Sometimes I read a sen...

  • GuyW12 December 2025

    Not unusual at all. There is very little in the media these days that can be taken at face value. It's not even that it is politically biased, left or right. It's that most papers, and to some extent other forms of the mefi, are continually looking for headline driven points of view. And it only takes one or two sources to promote some alarming spin on actual facts for all the others to follow sui...

    If you have a standard rib case gearbox it is difficult to lower the back. If it's a modified box like a T9, there may be some scope for adjusting the mounting.
    You could raise the front with packers under the mountings, but with a frogeye you need to be careful about clearance to the bonnet where it slopes down at the front.

    Why do you think these angles matter? Shouldn't the prop shaft...
