 News Flash: HOME PLACE: Look! On the road! It's a car! It's a truck! It's an El Camino!

Admin messages


HAGAR

BY SHEILA HAGAR

I used to drive an El Camino and I'm not even sure it's a car.''
Those words come from a song by Scott Krippayne, ``I'm Not Cool,'' and the minute I heard them on my way to work, I knew this would be the day.

 
 
  It's El Camino Day.

I've been dinking around with this topic for quite some time, beginning about two hours after the man in my house traded that pretty-boy, useless TransAm for a Caballero.

A Caballero, for those who've never had to think about it, is the GMC version of the Chevrolet El Camino.

And just what is an El Camino? An informal workplace poll revealed many wonder exactly that.

 News Flash: Site Hacked

Admin messages

This last Saturday, a little troll from Brasil hacked into the site and modifiied one of ElkySS news posts.  No real damage done, just redirected users to a bogus website.  Regardless, I have initiated some pretty heavy security changes on the server level, and banned a range of IP addresses from accessing us.  After viewing the server logs, I discovered users from this range of addresses attempting to run malicious code on our server.

Anyway, if anyone notices any problems accessing the site, or sees any error messages, please let me know so that I might correct them.

Thanks, Robert

Recharging Your Car's Air Conditioner with Refrigerant

What's the difference between a "top-off" and an "evacuation and recharge"? Why

I came into the shop with some refrigerant in my car

My technician told me that EPA regulations prohibit topping-off

My technician told me he could not locate the leak in my system

What about Using my own Parts?
