I've been having electrical issue with my 94 Suburban. Batteries going bad (but under warranty) - 3 replacements in a year. Eventually the starter, distributor and alternator also went bad...

With each fix the "slow-start" issue remained - like the battery was low. It finally dawned on me that I must have an issue with the ground wire either to the engine block or chassis. I checked both and they were secure...

Then I called a friend who is a automotive savant - he asked if I had disconnected the ground wire to check for corrosion?

Me: duh! Why didn't I think of that?

Anyway, I pulled them apart and sure enough they were heavily corroded. I cleaned them and re-installed. Then turned the key and no slow start issue! (I'll be ordering new battery cables to replace both since they are original from 1994)

So if you have older vehicles, try cleaning the ground wire connections to avoid these issues.

I wonder how many cars are in junk yards because of this simple problem?

an once of prevention...

They were also bad... Caused by the intermittent ground. If special note: the voltage regulator is inside the alternator that was allowing the alternator to put out 14.4 to 14.7 volts. The circle of life in electrical form.

Not to mention the water pump was leaking from the weep hole... And by "leaking" I mean gushing.

Also, let me add a "fuck you" to the chevy engineer who thought the voltage regulator inside the alternator was a good idea.

in reply to Otto Pureblood

@Otto Pureblood That's true. I usually opt for third party alternators myself, I usually use Leece-Neville's. There was a time when I had a setup where I had two alternators running with dual pulleys.

The original alternator would charge up the battery up front and the second one would charge up the batteries in the back, that run the other electronics such as inverters and such. I'm sort of a mad scientist or at least I once was. I'm not a scientist any longer but I may still be mad.

My OP observed that Jolani tried to please Israel and was bombed regardless.

You can ⋅infer⋅ whatever the hell you want from that, but the words on the page if anything were a comment on what everyone ELSE should do, namely, not bother trying to befriend Israel, not a comment on what Israel should do.

If you want a comment on what Israel should do:
Get the fuck off its neighbour's territories, stop bombing everyone, stop mass murdering people, extradite your own mass murderers to The Hague, disavow ethno-supremacism, pay reparations, etc.

Now you’re just embarrassing yourself.

I think it's fair to say this conversation has run its course.

It's clear now why you can't see the parallel universe: you're inside it. In the actual, empirical reality experience by everyone else, literally not one of those claims is even remotely true, as even a passing familiarity with the facts would make obvious.

Bye now.

Des études ont montré que les personnes qui avaient le plus peur de l’immigration étaient celles qui y était le moins exposées (quartiers chics et rase campagne)… justement parce qu’ils croient ce qu’on leur dit sans voir de leurs yeux que c’est des conneries.

#Israel, being stuck in a costly war of attrition in #Gaza, now diverts attention to a reckless offensive against #Syria. It seems hellbent on dividing the wartorn country, or perhaps occupying its south. And the conduct of the new idiotic regime in Syria is not helping, with reports about atrocities in the #Sweida governorate committed by government forces. What pains me too is that there are little to no reliable sources to know what is happening.

I didn’t choose this hunger.
It wasn’t weakness, or a wish to die.
Hunger was forced on us — used as a weapon by the occupation.
They chose to starve us on purpose,
denying us even the most basic needs,
until our stomachs were empty and our hearts heavy with pain.

No one should have to suffer like this.
If this touched you, please don’t stay silent.
Share our story. Your voice can help.

Algerian Muslim Woman Stabbed To Death By ‘Racist’ Neighbour

Rahma Ayat, a 26-year-old Algerian woman studying nursing in Hanover, Germany, was stabbed to death in her apartment building by her 31-year-old neighbour.

Rahma contacted her family in Algeria to complain about her neighbour, who was constantly harassing her, making racist remarks and mocking her Hijab.

Rahma was stabbed to death on the morning of 4th July in the stairwell of her apartment building in Arnum, Hanover.

According to police and eyewitnesses, neighbours heard her cries for help and alerted authorities. She was found with multiple stab wounds to her chest and shoulder, and died shortly after emergency services arrived.

A 31-year-old German man who lived in the same building was arrested later that day and remains in custody.

Despite repeatedly complaining to the German police about her neighbour, the complaints were "not taken seriously."

The Muslim Community and her family are calling for her killing to be recognised as a racially motivated hate crime, following reports that she had been repeatedly harassed for wearing the #Hijab.

yo lo uso. Me gusta que puedes hacer muchos niveles de organización (no sé como se llama, pero tengo punto 1, 1.1, 1.1.1... hasta el infinito) y "minimizarlos", cosa que cuando probé obsidian me suena que me frustró no poder hacer. Para lo demás no sé que decirte, yo lo que uso mucho son los tags, pero es uqe no lo uso como toma de notas sino para organizar materiales docentes y apuntes

🐄🧪 Norway forces farmers to use chemicals in cow feed - a billion-dollar business for BlackRock

Norway is forcing farmers to use the methane-reducing chemical Bovaer in cow feed. Those who want state support must participate until 2027.

The manufacturer of this "chemical warfare" is partly owned by the Norwegian oil fund - the largest shareholder is BlackRock.
