    Oberlin Inn

    i stayed there too big tom but was a rookie so didnt know you then. i was treated to free porn sounds from the next room the first night i stayed there. also like you supper was about the same for me as well. i also asked for a few extra towels to step on while getting out of the shower due to my bad knee at the time i didnt want to slip and fall. they never brought them. also the tabble lamp bulb was burnt out. i found hair in 2 of the dresser drawers. makes me wonder about how good they clean? this year god willing i will either pitch a tent at freebirds or go to the other motel. just my opion
  9. its a witchamacallit conected to the thingamabob next to the doomahickey that works the idontknow cable.
  10. just a quick question? is that a metal battery box now and wont that some how affect a battery.? i know from my old days that placeing a battery on concrete or metal some how drained them. but what do i know?
  11. well first i need a garage. as i live in an apartment second thing i need is a full time mechanic who is willing to work for no pay just a hand shake a thank you and ice cream any takers on the second ?
  12. just had all 4 rotors and of course all new pads done and had a heart attack at the cost to do this was$485.00 but i went with the best pads and rotors out there. 2 year warrenty on the rotors and suppose to be limited life time pads? lets just say when it comes to my safety i think this was not a bad price. im to crippeld up to do this myself. also got a free wash and wax and carpet vaccum and top the fluids windshield ect. and one free tire rotation and oil change at 3000 miles that in it,s self impressed me with this shop and no it,s not the tire shop that did this.. just that i had 10,000 miles on these old rotors and pads so i guess i cant blame the tire shop. but gee dont ya think they would have noticed this when they did my tires? but all is well and im back on the road with good brakes and knowing im safe out there for myself as well as others...
  13. yep pedal pulsates steering wheel shakes only when i start useing the brakes then it shakes the steering and pedal pulsates. and i here a clack clack noise inside? this started yesterday so cant say for sure the tire shop did this? but im willing to place money on it. these are aloy wheels and i hope they didnt due something to the rims as well. i did call them they said it test drove out fine. what the ehll they talking about. how do you test drive tires? as thats all they do. 4 brand new goodyear tires and they dont look at things when the wheels are off?? hmm not going back there again. i was given a price of just over $200 for rotors possible need brake pads and labor that sounds fair to me.
  14. ok i have a 2005 pontiac grandprix i had new tires installed about 3 weeks ago. now my front end shakes while braking? are the darn rotors warped? it goes shaky shaky and the whole steerring shakes.? while brakeing? im not sure if these new type rotors can be turned down like i use to back in the 70,s and 80,s. also could the shop have done this by useing a impact wrench? seems like you should just snug them and tork them like the old days and do it in a pattern? i know im old school shade tree mecahnic from the old days when a cresent wrench screwdriver ductape and a few choice #### words could keep it running but these new cars are way beyond my old school knowledge.

  21. assuming this is a 307 olds motor,the fuel filter is inside the fitting that attaches to the carb fuel line,you must disconnect the fuel line first.this screws into the carb.it has the filter and a spring inside of it,it also has a nylon seal at the end of the fitting when you unscrew it off the carb
  22. yes dano they did i know your thinking fuel injection .
  23. hey snaggle i had one of them cars its a barrle type filter right by the carb. yep its on a steel gas line. in a emergency i have punched out the filter with a nail .
