just remember, FTE has a message board for every engine, and every generation of our trucks.
engine related questions should stay with the appropriate boards

Consider my response smartass in nature if you like, that's your choice.

Nevertheless, my question remains... What the Hell do those terms mean? I can't recall
having differentiated any engines as even or odd or any other type of fire. Perhaps I have
come across the terminology at one time or another but that information is not in the front of
my brain, which means I don't use such terms or classifications enough to make the
information readily retrievable.

If some of you wish to consider this post as also being smartass in nature, feel free to add
my username to your Ignore list.

what the hell?
i was saying that he can get more advice from the people in the engine forums than he is able to here...


i did notice that you said you had left, if this is the only reason you came back, then wow. just wow.
get a life.

and please do explain where I posted something about the rules.
i simply put that the engine related questions should stay with the appropriate boards, nothing wrong with that.
and I am sure he didn't know about the engine board, so for all you know, i helped him out.

now, leave again, don't return this time.
you're not wanted.

You post the rules every chance you get. When you were kissing Stosh's *** remember? I do. I have a life unlike yourself "Captian Poster". I post when I have a question or suggestion not because I don't have any friends.
