  8. The automotive/truck repair field.

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    Posted

    So, i was in another thread talking about this stuff a min ago and i wondered, how many people on the site are in the field?

    If you are post up and say what you do and what kinda stuff you work on. whether it be gas cars, heavy duty diesel trucks(that's my favorite :) ) collision repair, heavy equipment repair. Just tell about what you do if there is anyone on here that does this stuff for a living. :woot:

  13. Urgent Help AMP SMOKE

    in Amplifiers

    smoke is never a good sign. im not an amp expert so i cant really tell you what it might be but i do know that they dont work once you let the magic smoke out and you cant put that shit back lol. i would take it to someone who repairs them and let them look at it and see what they say.

  16. valve placement

    actually, only slightly. Your thought would work if we were working with fluids, but we aren't. More line means more line that has to be pressurized to match the bags, so more line means more air, and more air means slower lift as more air has to pass the valves. Now this also means when you hit a bump in the road there will be more of a reserve of air that isn't being used in the bag, which in my theory will provide a more spongy absorption. This is only based on being an engineer in training though...

    Also keep in mind line has resistance to air as well... though it shouldn't be all that much especially with 1/2 line.

    (just want to throw in here that what I said about more line to fill with air in many cases won' make a large difference either... there isn't a whole lot of volume of air in an airline in comparison to a bag)

    this is very well explained. the reason i think that it is unnoticeable though is because the volume of air needed for the longer line isnt a massive change. i could be wrong about that but it seems right in my mind lol. correct if not i dont wanna put up false info.
