This file may be found on the web at http://www.digest.net/general-notes.txt [last revised 5/1/02; removed list of spam strings, as i'm not the only one filtering on them -- rpw] Additional information on Digest.Net's spam policies may be found at http://www.digest.net/email-policy.html and http://www.digest.net/blocked.html Table of Contents 1. Why don't my postings go through? 2. Why can't I unsubscribe? 3. How do I post to the list? 4. Where are the archives? 5. What other lists are on digest.net? 6. Is there a web subscription form? 7. Why not move the lists to someplace like (egroups, topica,...)? 8. How do I contact the server adminstrator in an emergency? 9. What is Krusty Motorsports, anyway? The Meta-FAQ 1. Why don't my postings go through? There are several things that may interfere with postings making it to the list. a) Are you a member? Some read the ftp archives rather than receiving the list in email. Persons who read the list via email are automatically members, but readers of the FTP archive are not, and need to contact me (rwelty-at-krusty-motorsports.com) and get your name added to the list of "permitted senders". b) has your email address changed? some of you have had changes in your email address. your old address still works, and is still on the list, but your From: line shows a new address. this can happen for various reasons; you may have changed jobs or ISPs, and left a forward in place, or your IT staff may have fiddled with the email system. you will need to unsubscribe your old email address and subscribe the new one. this may require my involvement, if you can't figure out a way to get your old address off the list using the conventional majordomo commands. you can use the majordomo "which" command to probe for old addresses. send a message to majordomo-at-digest.net with one or more which commands in the body, one per line. to check for potential addresses for Fred Flinstone, formerly of bedrock.org, the following commands can be sent: which flintstone which bedrock note that the matches above might return any of the following addresses, if they appear in the list (in other words, you can use vagueness and incompleteness in your recollection as a tool): Fred.Flinstone-at-bedrock.org fflinstone-at-wilma.bedrock.org flintstonef-at-bedrock.com c) do you have more than one email address? if so, only the subscribed addresses can post, unless you contact me (see 1.a) above for relevant information) d) are you using (intentionally or accidentially) special "features" of your mail client? [this section is no longer operative, as the demime software now strips html, attachments, rich text format, etc. from postings automatically.] e) are your posts too large? there is a 10,000 character limit on posting sizes; this is done for various reasons. you can always split up large postings to get mail through. f) are you including majordomo commands at the start of your message? administrivia control is turned on; this is a trap for things like "unsubscribe" at the start of a message. try to avoid obvious majordomo commands in the subject and the first 10 lines, or misspell them in obvious ways (e.g. unzubscribe, 1ndex, h3lp, g3t, etc.) g) are you triggering spam traps? some things are red flags; for example, many phrases found commonly in spam are automatically blocked. h) are you using "funky" character sets? [7 bit restriction lifted experimentally on 8/2/00 -- film at 11] unfortunately, there are "issues" if i permit any character set other than old fashioned 7 level ASCII; therefore, you need to avoid national character sets that include various accents, umlauts, national currency characters such as the British pound symbol, etc. i) are you unintentionally including complete digests in your reply? You need to check and make sure you cut down replys to the minimal size; digests are between 20,000 and 25,000 characters in length, and if you include a complete digest in your reply, it clearly won't make the 10,000 character limit. By the way, this feature is intentional. j) Are you using a "bad" ISP or mail relay? See http://www.digest.net/email-policy.html for more information about Digest.Net policies about email. k) Is the error message you get back "User Unknown"? If so, you may be running afoul of spam control severices (again, see http://www.digest.net/email-policy.html) When these services register a hit, the error code 550 is returned. 550 is a generic code that many broken mail systems report as "user unknown". The "rejectlog" entries for the previous day's mail traffic on digest.net may be viewed at http://www.digest.net/rejectlog.01 Some of you may find it useful or instructive to use the telnet program to connect directly to port 25 on krusty-motorsports.com and see what kind of reply you get; this requires some technical knowledge and is not for everyone (you can get out of this at anytime after the initial banner simply by typing quit and hitting enter.) l) Is SMTP over TLS involved? This is a bit esoteric, but as of 8/8/01 the digest.net mail server will attempt to use "TLS" (Transport Layer Security) for outbound mail if the destination mail server offers it. SMTP over TLS is fairly new technology, and a bit buggy. I am monitoring the logs on the server, and when I see TLS related problems, I manually place the problem destinations on a special exception list; however, this may delay email to the destination host until I make the exception. 2. Why can't I unsubscribe? a) are you using the right address? send to majordomo-at-digest.net, and the command format is unsubscribe list-name my-email-address b) has your email address changed? majordomo has no way of knowing that Fred.Flinstone-at-BarneyCo.com was once fflintstone-at-bedrock.org. you can check this with the which command (see 1.b) above for details) 3. How do I post to the list? You may use either one of two addresses: for example, the bmw-digest may be reached using either bmw-at-digest.net or bmw-digest-at-digest.net If you are using the correct addresses and your posts don't show up, check out the stuff in 1. above. 4. Where are the archives? see ftp://ftp.digest.net/ for digest archives. the web archives have proven problematic, and are awaiting time for a systematic attack on the problems they've been having. 5. What other lists are on digest.net? see http://www.digest.net/ for more information. 6. Is there a web subscription form? Yes, recently added. go to http://www.digest.net/bin/digest-subs.cgi 7. Why not move the lists to someplace like (egroups, topica,...)? The Krusty Motorsports server (aka, digest.net) was explicitly to provide for efficient management of the various automotive mailing lists, done the way that the owner of the server wanted it done. Any migration off of the server (which is already bought, paid for, and configured) would create any number of issues. 8. How do i contact the Server Administrator in an emergency? If my regular email address (rwelty-at-krusty-motorsports.com) isn't working for you, you can fall back on rwelty-at-suespammers.org 9. What is Krusty Motorsports, anyway? Krusty Motorsports (http:/www.krusty-motorsports.com/) is a business which is owned and operated by Richard Welty (rwelty-at-krusty-motorsports.com). Krusty is an S-Corporation in the State of New York. Krusty provides a number of Internet related services, such as mailing list, web sites, pop3/telnet accounts, and consulting on internet related issues.

The Blazer is nice and all that, but it's NOT a Jeep... like the tailgate setup on it, and the drivetrain is ok... but it's still a chevy... ;) - - biodiesel costs have also gone up because of chemical costs... :( - - hard to keep wvo sources, and the supply is often irregular... lots of work... - - I'll probably start driving my 300D again... fix up Superdawg, then sell the Blazer - - my carport is almost done... - - I'm thinking I'll bring SuperDawg home over Thanksgiving weekend! :) - - so, my thought is that I'll put a Mercedes Turbo Diesel (2.5 or 3.0 with hydraulic lifters - 86 and up) into my J10 and set it up with a WVO tank, use the barrel lift on it... put the WJ seats in it... and sell the K1500 Blazer once it's running. - - We'll probably keep the Benz, the WJ and the J10. Would also sell the hydraulic dump trailer because I could haul topsoil/gravel and barkdust in the J10... If the J10 works out to be economical we might even part with the 300D, but that's unlikely, it's just too nice of a car. - - heading out to bend nails, just got back from home depot... - - one other option that is kicking around in my head and that is to build up a Diesel XJ, but then it would have to haul the trailer, not sure how well that would work... The WJ only weighs 3,900lbs... the J10 solves the problems of utility and is still my favorite FSJ... later, john ----- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold SAVE fuel: use synthetics: http://www.AMSOIL.com/redirect.cgi?zo=283461 SAVE power: use LINUX: http://johnmeister.com/tmcp.pdf http://wagoneers.com http://gunbanobama.com/ http://freegift.com http://wagoneers.com/fotos - john's fotos - have camera, will travel - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 1 Nov 2008 16:19:59 -0700 From: "Joe Hughes" Subject: fsj: FW: 1988 Cummins 6AT3.4 TURBO with chevy bellhousing (Kingston) $400 This ought to work nicely in SuperDawg.

It is rated at 120HP -at-3600RPM and 200 ft lbs torque. Also known as cummins/onan 6AT3.4. they are only 3.4 liter are fairly short for a inline six and weigh around 800lbs each. They were a repower to replace a 292 inline six chev gas. These would make a great motor in a jeep or landcruiser, better in my opinion then the cummins 4BT because of they rev higher and are smoother. It has the GM/chevy bellhousing mated to the engine all ready. There is one complete motor only missing the water pump, thermostat housing, and flywheel ( It has the turbo, both manifolds, Injection pump and lines and all covers) and I do have the starter. I was told this has around 60K miles on it. It was pulled from a UPS truck. I has been in dry storage for years until recently. I would like to get $400 for the engine. 1-360-731-1795 or 1-360-881-0018.

I may hold on to it and just keep it outside. Trying to get the shop ready for SuperDawg... :) Target is still Thanksgiving... November is a busy month... today was the 34th anniversary of meeting my wife... the 15th is our 33rd anniversary, my birthday is this month and thanksgiving... for some reason I seem to gain weight in november... :) Carport tasks include blocking the 2x4 rafters, fixing the gutters so they work, finish the shelving, build the front carriage style doors and then start siding... http://wagoneers.com/fotos/2008/11-Nov-02-fall-colors-carport/carport/index.html Saw some nice fall foilage while making a WVO run with the Blazer and trailer over to Kirkland... http://wagoneers.com/fotos/2008/11-Nov-02-fall-colors-carport/ALL.html here's all the stuff going up on CL: notes: there are 4 of those 124 rims... asking $150 for those. local only of course... have two good, non-cracked 4.0L headers have an intake manifold for a 4.0 from a '96 (not shown) http://wagoneers.com/tmp/cl-items/ALL.html mark and I are getting more serious about selling the panel... we're both wanting to upgrade to a Nikon D700... I don't think it's in the works for me for a while though, need an engine for SuperDawg and anticipate a wedding by spring...
