We both know why you have been banned. The stunts you pulled after that were not very nice of you either but I never mentioned anything about it here or held it against you here, it's another forum and I don't want to hang out the dirty laundry. The person you have a beef with does not read or post here but I do and you know it. I sometimes have the efeeling that you are trying to put me against him or something. I have always tried to be polite to you so I hope you can just let it slide..for me, I really don't want to be reminded of it every time. If you want to sell your TBs or other stuff, why not advertise it here? Most CFI forum members are registered users here also so if you post CFI stuff for sale in C3 or C4 you would probably sell it...maybe even faster than over on CFI.
Again, I was not bringing up anything about the Crossfire Forum. Actually hoping someone from there might just want something. Also, nothing to do with you or whoever "he" is. Been gone so long, don't even remember some of the names from there. Geez. Simple comment becomes a diatribe against me. But, I'm OK - the least of us shall be the first.

Gr8whte - my 82 is running flawlessly also at 203K miles! But then, virtually everything from headlight actuators through radiator, engine, tranny, ujoints, rear wheel bearing assy's, etc. etc. have been replaced in the last 8 years. .Even got zero emissions on a few of the measurements! Now, its retired to a once a week cruiser.

Why then did you post that you had thrown away your stuff? That really does nothing for anyone else, and then you said you couldn't sell because you had been banned. I really wonder why you posted this then.

Thought you would want to know.

Air cleaner goes into trash this week. Have two extras sitting in garage. Keeping one.

Too much 82 junk to keep.
Put the aircleaner on e-bay. They are hard to come by.

Tweeling Turbo. Het is de vrij eenvoudige bestelwagen van het Afval in onze buurt is Zaterdag en Woensdag. Ik zette de delen in het afval bij Zondag het Besproken misschien ter beschikking stellen door de andere plaats. Afval dat fysisch uit mijn woonplaats op Woensdag wordt verwijderd. Dank voor de rente.

I am of German descent with some Dutch in my background. Made a mess in trying to communicate. Not as good as you to English.

Het is eerder eenvoudig. Ik zette de delen in het huisvuil op Zondag. Maar het wordt niet opgenomen tot Woensdag. Dank voor de rente.

IT's quite obviously that you put a text in babelfish.altavista.com or some other translating program because it directly translates the words and they are wrong, for instance, you said thank you for your interest and it translated interest not as in having attention but as interest as a percentage over a monetary amount and many other words were done the same way. Same thing in your last sentence, there is the word rente also, which is not what you mean, it should be "interesse" or "belangstelling"

Hey, I speak TexMex the same way. Gets me going across the border. Use words you have heard but might not know the dictionary meaning. Mexicans will just laugh, but understand.

Comprende?
