  1. Guys are also always discussing this on my state forums here http://www.bullnettlenews.com/forum/yaf_postst50890_What-books-am-I-missing.aspx
  2. The old pro turkey hunter is great, by gene nunnery.
  3. Yeah it sux, plus too dang cold to work on it without a heated garage!
  4. Thanks Lynn. No compression on all four. I think I'm gonna pick up a used engine at the junkyard for 700 and just put a new timing set and water pump on it. My fear is on the head swap that I'll bolt it up only to discover tiny fractures to a piston that weren't visible to the eye, then I'd be back at square one.
  5. Yeah I'm prob at least looking at head work plus the belt installation. I even ate my black eyed peas today for luck lol. That's just my luck though. My own fault, I should have studied up on the maintenance of the car when I picked it up last spring
  6. OK, here's my diagnosis. Pulled upper timing chain cover, and belt intact..... but... it will not roll the cam as the crank rolls. I can feel the teeth skipping over the crank pulley, in other words when I killed the car and later restarted it, it just stripped the teeth off the belt at the crank pulley. What the chance the motor is still ok? I'm hoping with the teeth shot on the belt at the crank pulley then maybe if it tried to shove a piston against a valve any then it just would slip?
  7. I rung out in right, was asleep on the couch by ten, one of my girls in bed with my wife running fever, gonna have to help limb up trees at my folks today, lots of fun lol. Happy new year guys, hope you all have a safe and prosperous year. I just hope the forum app is fixed this year
  8. Thank you Terry! I'll be reading this tonight and tomorrow.
  9. Lol. Took a gamble and replaced crank sensor seventy bucks blown. Crap I hate to pull the timing chain cover on a fwd car.
  10. Yeah I may have to Lynn. I don't have a scope to see if I'm getting a wave form off the can and crank sensors. Hate taking anything to the dealers! Also hate taking anything to most shops lol. Oh well it's either that or fix it myself or let it sit there lol. I'll give it another day and see if it heals itself
  11. No Anthony, I stand corrected, here ya go! http://forums.realtree.com/showthread.php?t=86209&highlight=belly+button
  12. Omg I forgot about that! I think it was Will (kyturkey/tn turkey) Crap that was naaaaassssssssty! Thanks for bringing that back up Anthony, now I need to go to a hog killing to get that image out of my head!
  13. I'll take a different position, go to best buy and get the cheapest thing you can find that has at least 4 gigs of ram and a decent sized drive. They're all crap and disposable after a few short years. Skip the add-ons. You'll likely spend as much on software as you will the PC. Just my 2 cents. I can't see spending 500+ on one simply for internet access/office apps.
  14. Yeah, I don't trust parts swappers either, I like knowing what's bad and replacing rather than have folks guess and charge me for it. You're right, it's either spark or fuel..... or the timing in fact jumped a tooth somehow when I killed it and is so bad out it won't crank now. I doubt that's the problem but can't be ruled out. I'll have to get back on it after this rain. Hate to tow it to the dealer for some little crap.
  15. So maybe Shaun, Lynn, or somebody can lend advice. 06 Hyundai Tiburon, took out for a short trip came back home and I went out a fewhours later and it turns over but won't even fire a bit. I did get a cel the day before, I scanned it and came up with P0016 crank/cam sensors out of time. So.... I pulled a plug wire and verified it is firing, almost acts like a dead fuel pump, but the stupid thing has no test port. Would a crank or cam sensor get so bad it would let it fire but not hit? Reckon the stupid thing jumped time when I killed it? Was running fine at idle when I parked it. Thanks in advance.
  16. Yeah Ruth he did. I've come to the conclusion my buddy can't shoot very well lol. He shot twice bc the de was still kicking pretty good, he was only about thirty yards away, apparently he missed the second shot!
  17. Haha Tracey, I think it was exactly forty lol. But hey we're in the twenties the rest of the week, so it will be too cold to hunt!
  18. In the red clay hills around here and at 207lbs this deer was a big a he'll ever get. Took a friend yesterday and he dropped him trailing a doe. Rut in full swing here.
  19. Haven't been posting that much since the app is crapped out. I'm off for pretty much two weeks and the rut is in full swing here so hopefully connect with some bone maybe. I'll get the scoreboard updated when I get a chance maybe in the next several days I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and be safe.
  20. Nope never a good thing Joe. I remember one we had on Christmas eve that was an older man in an mva that died shortly after he left the scene. Was really bad bc we had just had dinner with the guy a few days before because his wife had died that year and my wife's aunt invited him to eat since he wouldn't be alone that year. Very sad for family members esp at Christmas, but hey 90 is a ripe old age
  21. Just looking on the net: http://discussions.texasbowhunter.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-217531.html
  22. Hit high back, just below the backbone, above the lungs, deer not recovered. The sparking is just the blades deploying against the ferrule. He actually missed another deer when he hit a limb on film and it sparked as well. This is my cousin sending this, I can't say this is first hand, but he had no reason to lie on this one. Posted the pic on my state forums and several members said they had seen visible sparks with rage heads. Personally I have not, but I haven't shot that many with them.
  23. My cuz went hunting in IL and his buddy was being filmed by a guide when he launched a rage into no-man's land on this deer. Check out the sparks flying as the rage made impact.
  24. Yeah nothing surprises me about them anymore. I wonder if the bears ever sympathize with the fish and other critters they eat? Maybe they could send the bears a letter to try to identify with their prey?
