You may have some understanding of fluid mechanics but what we're dealing with here is a specific application of those principles you don't seem to be able to comprehend. I know from my 50 years of experience in the automotive industry exactly what can happen if the issue of the bypass port is ignored when replacing thermostats. I have made significant sums of money from those people who don't understand the significance of that little port and overheat their engines as a direct consequence. You just go on, in your ignorance, proving the old adage that *a little knowledge is a dangerous thing*. -- Xeno |

Then again, you likely didn't finish high school, if you ever attended. |

Are you saying that automobile engines have two radiator bypass route? One external and one internal? Are you sure of this? OTOH, don't bother with responding. My crack team of legal professionals have advised me that, if you cannot produce any evidence that I have misrepresented, misspoke, or lied, about anything in my post, I should not respond to your ranting. Sorry but I have to listen to their expert opinion and anyway, I don't want to be led through your fantasy wonderland on your leash. |

There are lots of engineer poseurs out there, just as you say. > the fluid mechanics comment alone should have provided you a clue. It alerted me to the fact that you were a poseur, yes, since it was quite apparent you couldn't envisage a practical application of fluid mechanics. > Then again, you likely didn't finish high school, if you ever attended. High school, Technical College x 2, University x 3. In that order. Now retired Your point is? BTW, the exit door is over there ------> Try not to trip over your ego on the way out. -- Xeno |

Sorry but I have to listen to their expert opinion and anyway, I don't want to be led through your fantasy wonderland on your leash. You require legal representation or at least assistance for reading and writing usenet posts? Despite what I suppose were your hopes and dreams, none of it comes off as remotely clever. |

And we're still waiting for one of those. Your first post in this thread removed any doubt that you were one. As I said, the door -------> Watch that ego as you make your way to the exit. -- Xeno |
