4:45 AM I think laying down and limiting sitting helps with leg infections. However i again got accidentally exposed to cell phone radiation while using Angela's computer. Her cell phone next to her desk was forgotten on and i started to feel heat in about 30 minutes and then pain. In fact, that's how i discovered it was on but was too late.
Though the phone was only communicating briefly with the tower every few minutes or so. I was hearing the alarm of the microwave meter beeping from the other corner of the room but was ignoring it.
But this time i have an explanation. I might getting the pain because microwave radiation exacerbates diabetic neuropathy. So all those with diabetes should limit their cell phone and wi-fi exposure. If that is true it means if affects everybody though in a lesser way.
But then why my infection from the toe propagates only in the areas that were affected most, by wi-fi antennas at my feet and computer in my lap and ears and eyes and hands where i kept my cell phone creating stiffness and numbness and lately some discomfort while speaking?
1:40 Yes i confess. I saw these buildings in the movie "Diplomat".
2:25 PM Climate change is real, there's no doubt about. But we would expect a more gradual manifestations.
I personally experienced similar catastrophic floodings at least a couple of times in Romania, and one was in 1970, way before this.
In fact, river basins are built by floods. From what i remember from grade school there are three different levels of flood plains around rivers, that are periodically flooded though with big differences in frequencies. These area areas people should not build in period and insurances should tax them accordingly. However the locations are tempting due to numerous other advantages.
But coincidences, other informations, in the case of recent floods in central Europe and now Spain, to me strongly suggest weather manipulation and there are a number of ways in which i suspect this can be done.
One of them is temporarily changing direction of the jet streams through manipulation (raising or lowering) of ionosphere with high voltage (at calculated moments using fractal math) with ground insulated antennas like the Eiffel Tower. Another is using of high voltage DC transport lines that exist in a number of places in Europe.
6:10 PM More undeclared, secretly lotus inspired architecture.
6:30 The semantic link of the days. The Devil went down to Georgia, where else. Election emotions are a great medium for seeding subliminal secondary ideas.
12:45 PM or 15 minutes till closing time. Could have waited to write this by need to see the reaction. Today the market made the biggest one day come back in years. From minus 1.6 to plus 0.8 right now. I don't mind but was one destroying everything i posted yesterday and recently.
Last night i went to WinCo and chose to stay in the parking lot while Angela went buying stuff. I wanted to smoke but had this dust in my lungs. From a little clay dust mixed with straw that fell from some vehicle in the alley that gut carried by wheels in the whole alley, all the way to the road. From something that i said. Nevermind that.
Two spots next to me came this huge black pickup or SUV and there was this guy who got out and went in the store and then came back before Angela. When i looked in the news today i saw the big Wall Strret analyst. What kinda BS is that? A recently deceased Hungarian writer.
Today i've done something i never do. I was frustrated and drank in the morning. Then started to cook some pea. It came uncooked of course and put it some more on the stove, set a timer, fell asleep and awoke several hours later with the pea burnt. I started to read the news, some searches, then i saw the market that was going up abruptly. And then i finally realised the peas were still cooking. It is true, the setting was on the lowest.
No i was not dead. I can't understand how i did not hear the timer. Maybe i forgot to set it. What happens is though upstairs was quiet, they have big engines revving in the distance modulated on my brain waves and can change them and my decisions by changing rpms. Or make me forget things when i'm weak or drunk.
Now i remember. At seven i heard a power blower. They come to pick the "more valuable?" items and then in exchange for the favoer blow around the bins. Blow the garbage, where? But there are piles of bags behind the SW bins nobody cares about.
I know many people had doubts about what i posted yesterday. When there are doubts they can turn it into certainty by showing my behavior. Of course, with severe intrusions into my private life. But nobody cares about that.
I went to sleep with palpitations, i woke up nauseated. Went and knotted and picked several poops. Took a charcoal cap. Got a bit better. Got mad when i remembered the episode last night. Upstairs never ceases marching.
Google stopped doing image searches for me just before i got to his page asking me to click on i'm not a robot check box then solve puzzles for each name opened (40 tabs). Fb was flashing his better res pic and then giving me this message. But i managed to do a screenshot of that flash. Google searches works now.
All these to slow me down of course.
1:15 See the little grey lines at the bottom of the graph next to time axis? Only yahoo finances still show those and those are the volume of transactions. When there is a sudden increase of volume towards the end of the section, it's a sign of a battle between their HFT computers. They buy from each other like crazy, raising the prices. It may work for a few minutes, that's why they do it at the end of the session so the market is raised or maintained high artificially.
CPI inflation report? BS, inflation is the graph you are looking at. Ok, a bit more. Outperforms. But the truth is the opposite. The unusual raises in stock prices drags the inflation up, not the other way arounds. It makes sense. It stocks are more expensive with no real increase in value, everything follows.
It started to go down in the morning, then up when i fell asleep with the stove on. Down when i saw him in the news, about half hour before session's end, remembered and started to search for the guy. Then the volume started to go up like crazy and the stock market ended the day on the same trend.
10:50 PM Dead deer, a guy cutting in front of us in an intersection on 18 making me break for 5 seconds, to avoid him, that skinny actor who played Ritchie Valens (that did not look like Ritchie Valens bullying us in the street in a big white van with paper LPN and making sure we've seen his face), many others.
When i got gas at Shell in Grand Ronde, going into the next empty spot (the pumps in the middle all had cons on), there was gas inside the nozzle. Don't know who and how they did it, but the only way is if you hold the nozzle up, squeeze a little and then you hang it in that position. Made a mess, my car and the station was smelling for hours after.
A bug i caught on the road? When i got there i was paralyzed from the waste down, could barely walk and been like that for all the time i was there. Really scary, i panicked. I tried to drink soda to flush the toxin (if that was the case) but they put some dirty water (smelling like fish) in the hot water tank so i could not dilute my soda and bring it to a reasonable drinking temperature.
Though the toe looks feels much better after i removed that tiny wood fragment. Or maybe it's just numb again.
10:55 I have reasons to believe they pulled a plug and started to let sewage flow through the new pipe.
11:00 Today i realized the first time the dark green Honda Element in the spot next to ours has tinted windows beyond the driver seat so you can't see what or who is in the rear.
12:10 AM Another thing i was thinking of tonight was about the position of the Secret Service shooters on top of the barn. Could not wait to get home to see the image showing if they could have seen the guy on the other side of the roof where he climbed.
Found a video that includes footage from a lower position. Second 24.
1:11 It stinks here intermittently, if i go there i would probably find another open bag on top of the bin's lid, like in this picture, but way on the other side, invisible from here. Then it hit me. The similarity.
For who reads my blogs it is pretty obvious there have been in the past years numerous attempts on my person, from accidents, that happened or i avoided (two of them just last night) to the pin in my shoe on 4th of July that got into my toe and caused localized tetanus (with flares in other damaged parts mostly by wi-fi of my body).
1:35 Never mind should have read this first. Ok i will leave it here anyways for The People to see they had him in sight all the time.
8:23 Exactly when i was wondering how much more childish American politics and politicians can get. Also has something to do with the cat lady upstairs, who at times looks like Vance's mother.
8:32 Sometimes i wonder. Why past presidents, vice-presidents get so... familiar with each other?
10:05 Fed's prefered key inflation metric came today "better than expected". As a result, the whole market which is the best inflation indicator, went up more than 1.5%.
7:14 Over the years i ran into those faces so many times when i was doing searching in the lists, it contributed to my opinion that Hungarians are actually the last wave of immigration into Eurasia directly from Australia, and that after i saw faces of aboriginal Australians on different sites. Could they be the same wave with the Finno-ugric group of Eurasian people. I don't know but i'm sure they come from the same place.
The most iconic landscape in Australia is named in their own language Mt. Attila. Here is a selected number of faces from between 1970 - 1975 or 416 people from my list of actors downloaded from imdb (a few are not actors). I excluded many as having more than 50% European traits (according to my trained eyes), due to mixing with Europeans. There is a penguin on Attila's painted shield etc..
The name Hungarians comes from an ethnic group in western Australia that still exists named Noongars.
I did not add names to the faces or scaled the images to this selected list due to lack of time and also not being relevant to the purpose. However if you want to verify authenticity you can hover over an image and see the name before the end of the name of the uploaded file.
They have been isolated from the rest of the world for at least 50 000 years and their different culture, appearance and especially way of thinking is unrecognizable by the official eurocentric world dominating culture. That's why they move and do their (advanced) business stealthy among us.
7:35 Angela has a problem with her right ankle for a few weeks now. We believe it is due to a missing vein that was collected for her bypass in 2016 in combination with newly bought from Amazon steel toe shoes and working without rotation at the same station for one year and a half. (Before her there were three people operating SMT machine through rotation), where she does an average of 6000 steps a day.
Now she can barely walk and Steve Eaton (coincidence of name with the name of the company) asked her to train a new guy, which doubles the job and she also needs to walk even more.
9:55 It's 5 minutes to ten and they started an avalanche of never ending exaggerated squeaks and heavy stomps upstairs. I was trying to explain to Angela, it's all staged. They never talked to each other or on the phone since they moved, they only squeak but she won't understand.
12:45 While i was doing (re)searches for my theory of everything i ran again into an old unanswered question. Origin of Earth's magnetic field. 2 years ago i posted a pretty simple and valid theory about it but nobody wants to take it into account or they are all ignoring it. To whom should i talk to?
12:18 Nu e nevoie de echipamente sofisticate cu laser ca cele din link pentru ajustarea unghiului de convergență (toe) la o mașină, care este obligatorie după schimbarea unor componente, ca de exemplu însăși bieleta. Eu mă descurc cu două chei. Cu una mare (de obicei peste 20 mm) desfac contrapiulița iar cu una mică învârt bieleta (tie rod). Unghiul acesta este important mai ales la viteze de autostradă, când un unghi incorect face mașina să "fugă" stânga dreapta în funcție de denivelările de pe drum, vânt sau chiar aleatoriu.
Se așează mașina pe un loc drept, orizontal, beton sau asfalt. Se umflă cauciucurile la presiunea nominală, iar toate cauciucurile trebuie să fie la umbră pentru cel puțin o oră (de obicei două sunt și două nu sunt, iar în afară de temperatura însăși, soarele mărește presiunea la cauciucuri cu până la 10%).
Se aliniază volanul cu instrumentele de bord, astfel încât volanul să fie perfect orizontal (în centru sau drept înainte). Se apleacă și se urmărește cu ochiul o linie imaginară dintre marginile exterioare ale cauciucului din fața și cele din spate pe ambele părți (stânga și dreapta mașinii). Se notează în minte alinierea pe fiecare parte. Dacă linia imaginară care pornește din marginile cauciucului din față cade în interiorul sau exteriorul marginilor din spate, se ia decizia în ce direcție trebuie schimbat unghiul.
Se învârte volanul la maximum stânga sau dreapta pentru a avea acces la bieletă. Se desface contrapiulița și se rotește bieleta cu cheia respectivă, câte puțin (un sfert de tură) în direcția necesară. Se aliniază din nou volanul și se repetă operația dacă este necesar. La sfârșit se strânge contrapiulița.
Atenție, burduful de cauciuc al bieletei se va răsuci numai pe o parte în direcția în care a fost învârtită bieleta, deci trebuie desfăcută acea siguranță, îndreptat și apoi strânsă la loc (unele siguranțe sunt de unică folosință, se poate folosi un fermoar din acela de nylon (ziptie) pentru a etanșa din nou burduful, altfel praf va intra și contamina grăsimea din interiorul casetei de direcție. Sau chiar sârmă, rotită de 2-3 ori peste burduf, fără a-l ciupi.
La majoritatea mașinilor mai noi de zece ani celelalte două unghiuri descrise în link-ul de mai sus nu pot fi ajustate, ele se modifică doar în caz de accident, caz în care trebuie îndreptată caroseria mașinii, sau înlocui amortizoare strâmbe, etc..
Camber sau unghiul de cădere se poate și el estima comparativ, tot așa privind simultan roata din față și cea din spate pe o linie imaginară urmărind de data asta pe verticală diferența unghiulară între liniile marginilor din față (proiecția marginilor pe un plan perpendicular pe axul roții) și cele din spate și comparând cele două părți ale mașinii. Dacă există diferențe stânga dreapta, aceasta e o indicație pozitivă că mașina a fost într-un accident și nu a fost reparata corespunzător.
1:25 She looks like a lamb, sings like Dali_da but howls like a wolf.
2:00 The two screws on the panel look like angry eyes. White eye verse on.
12:25 I am on a 25 dollars a month unlimited plan with Hello Mobile (by T Mobile). To get that price i enrolled in bill auto pay. I always have internet by i need to restart the phone several times a day to make calls. I tried to contact customer service via fb messenger. They keep asking me for information i already gave them, seem not to know the plan i am or even the reason i contacted them which i stated at the beginning of the thread so i decided to cancel plan and go back to Boost where at least i had phone service. However i can't find an option to cancel the account or get out of bill auto pay so i can stop making payments. Everybody on forums are saying the same things so i'm stuck. I think next time when they bill me i will dispute the charge with the bank.
After i uploaded the image above i saw the chat option. I tried it the other day but it was after hours and forgot about. Started to chat with customer service, but no luck. The person i spoke with seem to lack elementary logic and basic understanding of English language, probably has pre-written messages but does not fully understands the conversation. I am really dizzy because of the contamination with dog poop of the apartment in the last days. In the mean time the place filled with some weird smoke. I asked him/her to cancel the accunt and now i'm waiting.
Here's the transcript of the chat. I think congress whatever should issue an emergency plan/law/bill to not allow companies to use customer service hiring people outside US who don't speak English as their native language. That would bring many jobs back here and ease everybody's life. As for Hello Mobile, they tell me after 6 months of service that the phone was not compatible? (i guess time stamps are Eastern Daylight).

3:15 O deprindere grimasă, spunea marele poet. Mai mult decât atât. Am mai scris și cu alte ocazii. Specia lor cuprinde exemplare specializate îngust, la care una din trăsături este expresia reziduală pe fețe. Chiar atunci când sunt relaxați ori pe masca lor mortuară există o expresie care poate declanșa emoții, chiar reacții de supunere din partea interlocutorului, iar azi mi-a venit bine să postez un exemplu. Ce exprimă fața acestui tip? "Mă calci pe nervi, îți mai dau o șansă deși nu meriți."
6:50 Was nauseated and i drank till i was not anymore and my stomach started to hurt and when the sprinklers came in after 6:20 i went outside to pick some empty bags of chips and stuff laying on the red carpet. A Police car passed in the same time. On a higher position on the lawn i saw in a bush a white plastic bag (about where the abandoned bicycle used to be). The Police SUV passed on that alley coming around. First i thought the crazies threw a bag of garbage in the bush but then i looked inside and it was full with personal items of one person, most likely female, including jeans, electronic devices i did not recognize, etc.. I pulled the bag out of the bush thinking to throw it but then i changed my mind after and left it there outside the bush.
I went inside, grabbed my phone and and took some pictures inside the bag. Those items are too new to be garbage. While i was taking the picture, a girl came in front of the entrance (around that corner) to talk on the phone. She was saying something like "he's got video" and stuff, but her speech and English was a bit hesitating.
In font of that building up until a week ago teens where gathering to party every evening till late in the night.
Been on chat with Motorola. Though i bought the phone on Amazon using my address in Tualatin, both phones are not made for US. Here is the vendor on Amazon for my phone.
My previous phone was also a Motorola, though much slower, e6, that i also bought on Amazon and i liked the quality of the pictures, but could not unlocked to move from Boost (because of the same problems i tried to move from Hell Mobile today) . Could that have been also not made for the US, cause i had similar problems which i attributed to the wi-fi in the casinos. Angela had an LG and it was working fine, now we both have problems, both have Motorolas.
10:42 Ascultați ce vă spun eu, nu e Noe, e Neuman!
11:00 Și dacă tot vorbește toată lumea de SfântaMaria...
12:00 Aprope de lupul dacic. Iar au scos azi în știri brățările de un kg în formă de șerpi care nici pe bicepsul unui bărbat dac nu se potrivesc (poate al lui Iohannis căci pe al meu sigur nu, m-am uitat chiar acum)... Ce femeie în afară de Serena Williams ar putea să poarte asemenea brățări de un kg pe fiecare mână? Nu pe bune, sunt un fan al dacilor, ei ne-au lăsat alte chestii, ca de exemplu jumătate din vocabularul limbii române de azi...
Și fiți atenți pe ce mai faceți clic, pentru că unele video-uri cu liceeni nu sunt potrivite pentru elevii de generală...
1:20 I think someone invited some volunteers maybe from a church or a masonic lodge to power wash whatever in the alleys. Areas around garbage bins (inside would have been much more needed), mailboxes, etc.. For more than an hour now we hear and feel strong vibrations here of over 100 dB in the alley, with releasing of dust, probably litter dust from upper levels.
1:23 One of the compressors stopped with a backfire.
1:24 Letterman. I met his father or father in law, not sure, maybe 20 years ago. I was craving for some activity and we found a place to play ping-pong. He showed in there to mingle with the pooped, put up one of their masonic shows. Was the guy on the left doing the power washing today?
In the article linked above it says he was 70 but there is no date on the article. Let's assume it is 2022 and he is right now 70. Was he and the washing guy visiting the man upstairs a couple of days ago?
Fanuc. Why am i not surprised? Question is. Who owns who?
One day when they started to do the windows on building A (about a month ago) i saw a van with a Leatherman add clearly showing his appartenance to free mansonry.
1:57 Massive amounts of litter dust came in here during the power wash. But this is only a preview. Got a 24 hours entering notice for the whole next week when they are going to replace windows and sliding doors.
3:01 While frantically searching for Tim Leatherman i ran into something funny. An anthropologist. And i figured something.
7:13 I can do a toe alignment whenever i want just with two wrenches. Right front wheel is toed-in by about half degree. Today i needed a 24 mm open wrench to crack the big nut on top of the rod and a 15 mm (i guess cause it's bigger than 9/16 and smaller than 5/8, that would be 19/32) for the rod itself. I easily cracked the first one with an adjustable, but the second one is not moving with an adjustable and i don't have an open 15 mm.
I was talking about doing it since yesterday. While i stepped outside. 4 little brown children (between 2 and 5) came to yell ft away from the car. If this is possible, louder than ever before. After a while they went to knock on a basement level window "get out, get out!") to another kid i guess. No car and just an adult passed by in 15 minutes, who passed twice, "going to pick the mail, smiling, watching them protectively) while i was under the car. Interestingly, the words were English but the yells or intonations were Japanese. Reaction time was incredible, the way they were following my movements to extract most of the scene, were like little flying swarming drones.
When i came back inside last time (i came several times to pick tools and they were yelling louder than ever when i was getting in) i got hit by the dry old dog poop smell, probably brought in today by the litter dust coming from above. I did a load of laundry earlier, i washed them twice and once pushing with my hands inside the vertical drum, and they were still stinking after the second rinsing. Last few days were the worst in years as far as litter dust and smell. I am also nauseated.
3:04 Câmpulung, Copou, Coposu. A song to cope with anything. Cage, son of Coppola. Etc.
2:08 When i got the car from the auction and paint shop i found. One bent drive axle (right). The other was severely rusted with a play. Two cracked struts. I replaced them all but never touched the big ball joint nut.
I instead removed the three smaller ones at the control arm. Cause i knew the ball joint conic bolt maybe stuck in the steering knuckle. However somehow they got loose on both sides. Kept tightening them. Before i figured i needed single use nuts i bought a whole assembly (ball joint, cheap, OEM, 30 bucks) on ebay on February 17 which i tried to unnecessarily replace (being constantly under influence from smoke from mole holes which has ceased after i finally plugged all holes with added borax). I put some WD40, untigthened the nut to bolt level and hammered them together but not a lot since i had no room to do it. Tightened the nut back by hand and with a new wrench i bought especially for this. I did not strip the nut, no way. I think that 12 mm bolt can take safely up to 100 pounds. Then i bought a tool on Amazon which didn't work. When i went to Reno i stopped once on the freeway and tried to tighten the nut again but was turning continuously and i figured maybe the conic joint got loose because of the WD40 i put in. Today i went in to see what's happening and found the nut and bolt are stripped period.
While i was weighing my options in disbelief and was ready to put it together (got the parts, but can't remove the old joint) the read head woman, the mother of veteran's daughter passed by and never came back. I figured she went to the office like she threatened once, because i was working on the car. But at the garages there's a guy who also works on a vehicle and he does it everyday like a business. Closest.
What i don't understand is why yesterday or any time before i retigthened the nut it was making a noise at the bumps and had problems steering at high speed which means the conic bolt is loose but every time i tried to remove it it was stuck. Right now since it's stuck i think i can drive it safely even without a nut on it. The nut is stripped but is very hard to remove and i don't think the bolt would pop up so i may just drive it like this for a few more days (Angela's got Monday off).
3:38 A drive to Les Schwab turned into a whole new adventure. I stopped at Jiffy Lube where they replaced my filter last time. They said they can't do it without an alignement. There is nothing to align at this car except for toe but that one wouldn't change with ball joint replacement. Nothing will change. Anyways, i know when a car is out of alignment. He gave me the "if you want to argue, i do this for..." (he's like 30).
At Les Schwab. Blake Shelton as customer, a kid that seemed familiar came when i was leaving, but i passed.
Some other mechanic told me what to do. A wedge, but that will destroy the old part in the process. Not so absolutely sure i got the right part on ebay. Though mine is stripped, it still works and if i do this i have to be ready to give up the car for a few days in case it goes wrong.
Now that is stuck (as for today) i don't hear any noises at the bumps.
Risking children's lives. When i came back, a grey silver Audi was coming real close, threatening to hit me from behind. I was braking slowly watching him in the mirror and pulled real fast in the alley, stopped and honked, without realizing there was a car trying to leave the alley with a kid in the back sit staring at me.
Here starts the weekend story at the end of which would probably find out why Microsoft shares raised so much starting Wednesday this week. People could have been curious about why i wasn't writing about it anymore. It was a few weeks false hope mixed with despair waiting for a conclusion which didn't happened yet but almost. Cause we spent our last credit reserve to buy a car to replace the 24 years old Sentra.
So one day around the beginning of the month i a signed with Copart, a place where insurances sell cars they bought for customers after reimbursing them the whole market value of the car. I know it sounds strange but here's how it happens. The car gets wrecked and the cost of repair is over the cost of the market value of the car. In which case the owner can't say anything if he is paid that value. Usually with that money the owner can get from a dealer a similar car. Though i don't believe it is 100% moral or equivalent cause buying a used car involves a great deal of stress especially since you don't know how the ex owner took care of. It could probably work with people who don't care much about their cars. Like the owner of this car i bought from auction. The battery was not replaced at the recommended year interval. At 5 years of battery age you could not start it again after it was jump started and run it for an undetermined interval of time. Throttle body was supposed to be cleaned at 30,000 miles on owner's expense but wasn't. At 35 it wasn't and had a hesitation and i cleaned it 3 times, twice with alcohol and once with CRC and finally gut rid of all the gunk built in there.
What happens is car's got an electronic throttle, without cable and a step motor instead. The step motor's power is limited. The computer knows how to open the injectors based on the position of the throttle (and other sensors). When the throttle is almost closed or pedal barely touched like most of the time the dirt counts for a significant amount of opening or extra closing to be more exact and engine gets less oxygen and more fuel contributing to bad mileage and overheating the catalytic converter. Also the dirt could cause the step motor to skip steps and be into a different position or hesitate to open. All these also translate into erratic driveability and bad mileage.
Also. There is no scheduled interval to service the brakes until this mileage. The brakes had a dead interval of about half inch. Which means you applied them and they won't react until you press about half inch. Then they would have a tendency of braking to hard or almost looking. A few days ago with the help of Angela who pressed the pedal i removed a single bubble of air in both front brakes, didn't have time for the rest. Brakes work now normally.
Also. At high speed it had the tendency of pulling both sides, depending on the state of the road (right now I5 between 217 and 205 is a mess in both ways. With deep grooves and now with extra grooves from removing the white markings because of the enlargement work). At the alignment they told me both front toe angles where out of specs, towards the exterior of the car. That is left wheel towards left and right to right.
There was a flat tire fixed with the kit the car had. Fixed that one for free at Les Schwab.
All these things dramatically decreased the driveability of the car and most likely contributed to the accident.
The car was initially sold at Copart by State Farm. On the windshield it had a C and a D which means was on lane C at the first sale and on D at the second. Lane D i think is for vehicles that are driveable and usable or in top shape (for a place like Copart).
The car initially had been in a fender bender which broke the left headlight and slightly bent the hood. There is a few mm misalignment between hood and fenders barely visible. Obviously not visible in the picture above and not by us when we went there at Copart location in North Portland saw it. Also saw a lot of cars that day.
But whoever bought the car the first time from State Farm fixed it partially. That is he put a headlight in there and made it look like it had not been in a wreck. Which worked for us. Than he put it back in the auction with of course the intention to make some money of it. Because the letter C from the windshield was never erased but just put in parenthesis it is possible the car was never taken out of the lot but fixed there and all paperwork faked.
Copart has some qualifications for each car. Probably not legally binding since the cars are sold "as is" and without any warranty. However misleading since you see a car that is qualified with "minor dents and scratches" and in reality had been hit and with mechanical problems and partially repaired. Qualifications that are shown on all the other cars.
We went to see the car about a week before the day of the auction. I remember there was a funny sweet smell brought on the lot by the wind in that day. Some Arab guy asked me a question. When i got home we went and bought Teryaki and had a severe dysphagia episode (the kind that brought me to ER a couple of times but never checked in).
The auction itself took place on 4/4. I added some money on my Copart account. (For each thousand dollars you bid except for the first you have to have 100 dollars deposit). In that day Angela took some hours from work and we both had the pleasure to bid at the first ever online auction in our lives.
It was very similar with a video game at the Casino. You would see the amount raising as people bid by clicking their mice in different location of the world. There was some repetitive music and comments. Finally got to "our" car. After passing a certain amount, i think 3000, it was only me and somebody from Alaska bidding (yes you can bid from out of state and other countries and have the car delivered). That guy was bidding because he had not seen the car. Me because i haven't seen it enough and certainly was not thinking of buying it in the moment i saw it. I won the auction at 3450. With Copart fees of which the biggest is "Internet Bidding Fee" around 800 for that value and other fees total price should had been 4150. But a few hours later i got an email from Copart saying the owner had raised the price with 900. That is because again the car had a qualification on it saying "on approval" which means the seller has to approve the final price. Kinda goes against any idea of auction i particpated in the past, in fact only one. So the seller rose the price 900 after basically winning the auction which i did not accept. To my surprise, got a few more emails from Copart saying the owner had made new offers, lowering the price in the end to 150 dollars more than final bid which i accepted. With Copart fees it bought the car at 4325 dollars or something like that can't remember the exact amount to dollars.
In that day i went to Copart to see the car i didn't look really close to it cause wasn't thinking seriously of buying it. Cause i would have seen:
The battery was dead.
There was a broken headlight and windshield reservoir in the trunk.
The engine was making a ticking sound.
The paint on the hood was corroded by boiled coolant.
There was a C and a D on the windshield (The guy from Alaska would have seen that in the pictures too if he knew what it meant. I guess not. Both C and D are not visible in the pictures).
I brought the car home in the Friday after the auction. That is April 6. In that morning i first drove myself to Copart and paid. They say they can arrange towing for 52 bucks but next week (later i saw it was for 152). I decided to drive the car home in that day.
After buying insurance, a permit from DMV (which was initially wrote with the wrong VIN number). The guy from insurance signed it for liability only and asked him to upgrade it. When he heard the car was totaled he hesitated but in the end he hand-wrote on the initial offer "upgraded to comprehensive and collision" and initialized. Later the paperwork came in the mail with liability only. (After a show last Friday with the owner of the agency and telling him my Sentra was totaled when i bought it and paid full coverage since 1999 until i decided a few years ago to go liability only because the car was not worth it he changed his mind and gave me full coverage for about 80 dollars a month which is a great rate. Don't know if there's any catch yet).
Angela drove me there in the afternoon or i drove with her (can't remember i was very tired from not sleeping enough that night). At Copart a guy drove the car outside the lot and let it running which seemed odd. Angela said she saw some white smoke coming out of the tailpipe which i didn't. For some reason i stopped the engine. I was amazed by the number of options and button and lights and indicators the car had. And the look. Our newest car (truck) is since 98.
Then when i wanted to restart it and it wouldn't. Then i dared and popped the hood and saw it was missing coolant. Oil looked ok. I added some water and asked the same guys in there to give me a jump start figuring the battery was dead both by age and sitting unused for a winter in the auction lot.
That worried me a bit thinking i have to drive it home with almost no battery having an electrical power steering (EPS). However i did it. But when i started driving it i first heard a noise at the engine.
However it was too late. I came home and checked coolant again. In the radiator it was low again. I noticed by feeling the radiator's hose that softened too soon after i stopped the engine. It should hold pressure for at least about 10 minutes. (I know this trick from mechanics i went to who would check the hose by squeezing in hand before opening the radiator's cap. My car holds pressure for about 3 minutes only.)
The exhaust has a strange smell of ammonia. Could it be the newer cats, or the combination of unburnt fuel from burning reach and small amounts of coolant. Something DEQ or sensors on your car don't even search for. http://www.cnn.com/2000/fyi/real.life/12/18/car.pollution/
Had trouble restarting it. Jumped started it several times before deciding to buy a battery from the dealer (cause the last one i bought one at NAPA leaks so i decided to take no chances with the EPS).
I was driving the car around to see how it does. I even went to the casino a couple of times. In the mean time i realized the noise was from the front of the engine. I replace the belt which had two indentations probably from a foreign object than from jumping. I tried to remove the water pump pulley but there is not enough room between the engine and the frame to do so. However reinstalling the pulley i noticed the wobble was much smaller. But the next day would come back. I did that several times.
In the mean time i read about noises and figured it might be a piston slap. About two weeks ago i ordered an endoscope from Amazon for about 12 buck. That is a small camera with a USB connector that can go inside a cylinder and take pictures. The camera came two weekends ago but i haven't use it until last Sunday. I haven't seen any scoring of the cylinders due to piston slap. I was intrigued by the strange shape of the pistons with valve relief indentations and the fact pistons were made of cast iron instead of aluminum. The whole engine is made of aluminum with cast iron sleeves inside cylinders.
But first think i saw was a drop of oil on one of the pistons. That came right out of the thread of the spark plug in cylinder number one after i removed it. There was oil in the spark plug compartment i don't know from where. Spark plug number one had zero torque on it while the others were very loose. So i took several pictures from inside the cylinders, cleaned the spark plugs and put them back until the next day when i bought NGK irridium only (no laser welded) which have a more irregular shape of the tip.
Most of the ticking noise that was from an exhaust leak in cylinder number 1 was gone. I was quite happy after finding that oil and that loose spark plug thinking my troubles are gone. But i was wrong. Original spark plugs where NGK irridium laser which are good for up to 80 thousand miles. I put in NGK irridum (only) which are 8 bucks a piece expected to work up to 50 thousand miles. But i could not find on the internet the right gap. Original ones were gaped between 38 and 40 mills so i gaped the new ones at 36. However i found out later at the dealer that the specs are 39 to 44. Can't remove to re-gap them cause the built in washers are one use only. The smaller gap accounts for a delay in timing which means worse mileage.
The serpentine belt i replaced in the few days after getting the thing. It had two indentations from two foreign objects. One that passed between the belt and water pump pulley. The other that passed on the other side of the belt between the belt and crankshaft pulley. Both pulley are wobbling a few tenth of mm. That is enough to vibrate the AC compressor to the point of getting the connectors loose and start a leak.
But there's more. I think the belt jumped from the pulleys. The engine might have been run without water pump rotating for a few minutes until boiled and corroded the paint on the hood. Though only on the outside. There is nothing on the inside. With that and the constant disappearing of coolant today i reviewed the pictures i took the other Sunday. And guess what i found in two of them.
The green spots in the lower side of the first picture and middle of the second could be none but coolant.
But there is a whole story with the pictures too. I bought the endoscope which is a tiny camera with LEDs and the end of an USB cable from Amazon being advertised as working with Android which it didn't. But it worked with Windows. So i put the all in one Angela's computer on top of the engine and through the spark plug holes took the pictures. But it was sunny that day and didn't see much on the screen outside. Then i looked at the pictures inside but not at all of them and only looking for cylinder scoring. I didn't see in three of the pictures there was coolant on top of the piston.
Now i figured what would have happened at Copart after coolant leaked in significant amounts inside of a cylinder after staying there for a while. When they started it they might have bent a valve because coolant acted as a hydraulic fluid when engine was turned to be started. But i don't hear any valve ticking with the stethoscope. Only injectors.
Also each morning i start the car the water pump is wobbling severely and makes a noise. If i loosen the belt and all four connecting screws of the pulley and tighten everything back again the vibration is brought to a minimum.
Today i went to several places with the pictures on a tablet. They gave me estimates for a head gasket which would be broken in order for the coolant to leak in there. Starting at 600 and ending with 12 to 18 hundred at the dealer (in case there's a bent valve). It's not that bad but when thinking about the water pump and possibly the crankshaft itself bent for the short distance outside the engine, i don't know. It looks like i got myself in big trouble.
Today when i looked at the pictures and copied them on the tablet i saw the location is... Microsoft One drive. It looks Windows 10 generously moves files from your computer without asking in the cloud from where they can be seen by anybody with a password. And Angela does not have a very strong password for her Microsoft account.
Yesterday i went to Hyundai dealership in Beaverton and changed oil and also serviced the AC. There was a puddle of oil from AC on a plastic cover and the screws from the connector to the compressor showed traces of being turned with tools. When i left the car was sluggish. This morning had a few misfires and i hear new ticks all the way to the bottom of the engine. I think they did things to make that engine worse. Now when i accelerate i hear a bit of misfires. Maybe filled a cylinder with oil and bent some valves which can be blamed on the starting at Copart wth coolant in a cylinder. Just to make it break soon and cover other Hyundai specific defects.
I think the recall with the thing in the brake pedal is to cover the problem of air bubbles in the braking system. They are changing a little plastic thing behind the brake pedal. In reality they are airing the brakes real quick.
There are two technicians there i talked to. Dan and Brandon. Brandon took care of the car yesterday and Dan today was nervous and kinda hostile when i showed him the pictures with the inside of the cylinders.
While i was writing here the place got filled with some smoke that got me a bit high.
When i came back i talked to Angela and considered all options. One is to buy a new engine. When i talked to the dealer again to ask for a price they said they can't give me any cause the company they work with was closed at that time. When i asked for a wild interval or "order of magnitude" they put me on hold indefinitely.
While i was finishing writing above the end the place got filled with some sort of smoke making hard to concentrate. I just went outside for a walk and remembered. The type of the engine. But it's not only this episode that is a set up. I remember the day i drove to Steve, owner of Lucky Autobody where i went with my vehicles for the last ten years with my hands full of foam that i could not clean. I was holding my both hands crossed on the steering wheel and they looked like mummy wrapped when i was waiting at the red light on TV Highway in Beaverton in front of City Hall when a guy passed the red light just to have the camera started and get a picture of me. A few days later i first saw the Gangnam style video on youtube. He was holding his hands the same way i did a few days before when riding an imaginary horse. For a while now i believe Psy and Kim whatever are the same persons.
Also the guy upstairs and at least the woman at Apt.9 here looks Korean.
Daewoo was also present in Romania for a number of years with a factory. Craiova is knwon in Romania as being the center of far right. In 1995 just before i came here i went in Bucharest to a meeting of reverend Moon dragged in there by and ex High Shcool class mate, the guy who looked like Travolta.
"This vehicle is being sold as is where is".
That includes the description for primary damage, MINOR DENTS AND SCRATCHES, secondary damage, none? There are many other cars in there with damage descriptions like MECHANICAL PROBLEMS, FRONT, REAR, PARTIAL REPAIRS etc. The car was first sold from State Farm to Copart then some guy bought it, partially repaired on the spot and reintroduced it in the auction. Copart new about the initial damage and partial repairs but did not disclose them.
Just went to Multnomah County site where the address of Copart 6900 NE Cornfoot Drive, Building 1, Portland, OR 97218 belongs thinking about downloading forms for small claims court. However i feel discouraged to continue. Lately this whole area including Portland feels like under occupation. What do i want with a small claim when there are such problems going on.
On 04/21 i finally used by borescope camera that arrived about on week before in the mail.
I took several images, looking for cylinder scoring from possible piston slap. I didn't find any of those though. Besides seeing coolant drops on the pistons (pictures above) there were other things in those pictures i ignored. Signs of the piston hitting the valve. Signs of oil on the pistons.
Over the weekend and almost 1000 miles later i took more pictures from inside the cylinders and intake manifold. Old oil dried on the spark plug seat. More signs of piston hitting a valve.
In the mean time more people told me the passenger door was painted. That means the impact from the accident was bigger than i thought. With nobody on the passenger sit side airbag was deactivated by the sensor so it did not blow. None of the 4 airbags was deployed.
Conclusion. During the accident the timing belt jumped. That lead to pistons hitting valves. That bent the valves and caused wear of the valve guides and leaked oil into the cylinder. Valve timing being off intake valves were closed by the pressure during expansion cycle and exhaust with oil from valve guides leaking flew into the intake where it can be seen. (Got more pictures on a phone done also yesterday).
Good news is i realized in time and will not drive it anymore. Further damage could break or bend the pistons and seize the engine. If driving on high speed at that time that could lead to loosing control of the car.
05/08/18
I don't believe anymore i have a jumped chain and the pistons are hitting the valves. In the pictures is just hot gases blowing the oxidation and/or carbon deposit out of the top of the pistons that seem to be made of cast iron instead of aluminum. That is happening because after all the maintenance work i've done so far the engine started to burn more normally and is burning the carbon deposits.
The noise i hear could come from a sticky or bent valve on cylinder nr.1. To make sure, further tests are necessary. Just in case the valve is sticky due to carbon deposits i also added some Lucas injector cleaner additive that is supposed to help do clean those and the injectors.
Today i woke up with things of the past in my mind. The recent past. The distant past. Pieces of the big puzzle were never closer. By looking at, also figuring very outrageous things. Choking me in the morning. Outrageous to me, scandalous to others. More than scandalous. Sad.
Would i have enough time to reevaluate all my life in the light of freshly discovered facts?
What for? Should i say "what i know now" and upset a lot of people? Good, working people, not like me, that carry the world on their shoulders as i write?
I came to the computer to read the news. Romney getting closer. All of us getting closer. The usual paradigma. Increase of activity in other areas of the world. A local guy, rebellious again. Or another scripted thing. Other things. I can't remember what i was reading on g+ when the door next door went yet again "slam!". Al my thoughts were scrambled. As sad as they were they started trembling. My mood switched from frightened/sad to frightened/scrambled. Some neurotransmitters off the scale. Others, depleted.
Choking turned to anxiety. People who have good neighbors should not take them for granted. But how would i know?
Yesterday i wanted to go to a Romanian church in Beaverton to talk to some people. I could barely steer the car. It is out of alignment. Again. At 60 mph it is hard to control. Looks like the toe (angle) is off by some some 0.5 degrees. Now i need to call Les Schwab again. It's been two weeks since the last alignment and last time was working fine. Or drive all the way to Aloha and raise the daily hell again.
