    :rofl: As I was always taught, play stupid games win stupid prizes. He takes the cake for the prizes. I believe based upon thread creations that somehow is trying to rebuild an entire truck using YouTube certified mechanic advice.

    Ahh, I don’t take much personal.

    I do my best to try to help everyone.
    Because I know how it feels to need help or advice and have no one to ask.

    On the other hand, Once I decide I’m done with someone, I won’t even waste my time reminding them “why I don’t want to help them”.

    I will say, OP has definitely kept himself “in check” since his first few post. :rofl:
    Kudos to him, I guess:confused:

    Best of luck to you OP.

    The haters hate because I am a threat to so-called experts, in reality people with limited intelligence that allows them little more than accumulate experience the hard way and hang on to it as the last straw that keeps them economically afloat. I am the non-expert who actuallyu does things that experts (in this case mechanics) would like their customers to be ignorant about so they can milk $ from them. I ask all the right questions and actually get shit done. Degenerates like 6 gearT444E hate a self empowered person. The internet and the availability of information is eroding their grip on money making.

    The social system of reliance on experts is crumbling and they hate to see it happen. In 16 years of owning my Tacoma, I have paid $0 to mechanics. I pay no money to any so-called experts because their "expertise" is easily obtained for free using modern media of information exchange.

    That's a bold statement. Not sure what reality you live in... You got mad at people when they told you how wrong you were doing things.

    You aren't a threat to experts... You are the butt end of their jokes....

    I promise you that no mechanic is butthurt by what you are doing. You haven't enabled anyone to escape the need for a mechanic. If anything, you have made it worse by coming up with these crazy ideas that simply do not work and then freak out when people tell you the proper way to do something.

    Bro, really?

    I just kind of “complimented” you on your success of not “ making it worse”.
    You’d been better off ignoring the post you didn’t like.

    My predictions is this whole thread will have gone to $hit in the next few hours.

    I’m out. :argue:

    there is no other way to explain malicious trolls coming after me for asking a perfectly legitimate technical question, answers to which can be used to empower a DIY person. Such trolls are hellbent to discourage technical expertise sharing among non-experts, much like record companies do not want file sharing online. Exact same motives.

    you never answered your question about how Toyota assembles the manifolds at the factory. Quit ragging on me foampile, you aren’t hurting my feelings or taking any bread out of my mouth by trying these crazy schemes. I don’t come to your work and knock the license plate out of your hand, now go back to banned.

    You’d make one hell of a spokesman for one of these books, every consider selling the garbage spewing out of your brain to someone dumb enough to buy it instead of someone smart enough to ignore it? You might be more successful in life.

    I initiated a perfectly legitimate technical discussion thread yet these trolls came unprovoked at me. this idiotr 6 gearT444E keeps sending me unwanted, trolling messages. I never initiated any discussion with him and he's never been helpful answering technical questions, only trolling. The only explanation for their behavior is the insecurity over people being able to harvest technical information online peer-to-peer, which they seem preoccupied with jealously keeping for themselves.

    Wrong, you come on here asking for advice and plenty of people give you plenty of said advice. Then you claim you knew the answers to your very own question you start the thread with and continue to do things the wrong way. We call folks like you askholes.

    These days I just bite my tongue and try not to get involved in online squabbles, however, I'll just say this...

    There is nothing more ironic than someone acting like they're part of the modern day DIY movement against relying on experts, yet here they are, thread after thread, post after post, needing to be spoon fed every step of the way by these same experts they despise.
