SCAM!
After 250 000 miles, I finally got around to renewing the valvetrain components of my Volvo 240. Springs and hushers being the main items to replace. I also adjusted the fuel distributor system pressure, control pressure, flow plate and CO mixture.
All back in!
System pressure was only 4.6 (not shown in photo), so I carefully got the pressure regulator out and added shims to it. Quite a lot of shims was needed, I think the spring had gone weak.
That’s it. Next, replacing the power steering pump…
I’ve realised I probably did this in the wrong order as I have had to disconnect and flip up the upper station layer. Lower track is near down, and once the stattion is back down, I can fit the Woodland Scenics riser and track all the way round.
My CS3 is still off for repairs, but hopefully it will all be ready to run some trains when it comes back…
I have also secretly ordered McK’s new IC3 (litra MF) model to arrive next spring.
Couldn’t resist a good offer on a Roco Mayo car
Here she is, looking sad, left behind with a pile of parts…
After 7 years of sitting, it is finally off to the body shop…
I accidentally deleted the folder with the DNG files after importing files and editing them in Adobe Lightroom. Played around a bit and managed to re-generate them without losing my editing and tagging, using the following procedure:
1) Select all the raw photos for import (again)
2) Tick (if not already ticked) “Do not import suspected duplicates”
3) The dimmed thumbnails are the ones you want to import as those are the ones you imported last time
4) Un-tick all
5) Un-tick “Do not import suspected duplicates”
6) Tick the ones that were dimmed down
7) Un-tick “Add to collection”
8) Import
That re-generated the DNGs
I then generated a new web-catalogue and watched the file sizes as it built the files and the were all 30-40% bigger, so it definitely made a difference.
I have had my second Mio Cyclo 405 replaced now, Mio support claiming hardware fault, me doubting it. When my third Cclo 405 came arrived with the same fault, adding to that my old 315 having the same fault as well, I started poking around in the settings.
I eventually found under Settings -> System -> Alerts, if you scrolled down, a setting called “Auto Recording”. I have now tested this function and it is indeed the cause of my “problem”.
I have informed Mio support of their incompetence. It is one of the worst cases I have seen in a long time. Mio Support, their repair center and even their software engineers for the Cyclos, neither knew about this function! It is shocking.
I was quite surprised to see Sir David Attenborough speaking to the Commons Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy committee about “Climate Change” outlined in the link below, and even making a TV program about the “Climate Emergency”.
Surprised as Sir David Attenborough, as I am sure he is aware himself, is not a climate scientist. He is a nice and respected man, agreed, but he is actually being disrespectful himself by encroaching on fields of other scientists.
He is even advising the government on isssues of economy, as he is calling for a fee on airline tickets, a plan I believe most economists would disagree with.
Sir David Attenborough is a lovely person but from that to the government seriously budgeting one trillion pounds for lowering CO2 emissions is just frightening. How has it come to a point where people listen to whomever makes the most fuss over actual experts? Greta Thunberg being an even more scary example of this.
Mark Carney
was asked if he was part of Project Fear when he was predicting issues
surrounding his field of expertise after the Brexit vote, yet no-one is
brave enough to call out
all the non-scientists spreading Project
Fear when it comes to the “Climate Emergency” that only about 25% of
relevant scientists agree with.
What we really have here is a
Censorship Crisis, not a Climate Crisis. The IPCC is force-feeding
everyone their biased theories because that is what they are paid to do,
nothing more. The media no longer check facts but publishes what people
want to hear, adding to the
chaos. The scientists actually working
on the climate no longer has a voice because of people like Sir David
Attenborough and Greta Thunberg and the media bias.
And mathematitians and physicist are not climate scientists either but they are being asked to do modelling based on un-founded theories about CO2, without taking far more important factors or historical data in to account.
If the Climate Emergency is real, it is serious, but spending one trillion pounds on a duf
f theory is also serious. Why base it on hearsay from a nice old man and a school girl? Maybe it is time to bring in the experts?
As the Mio support staff couldn’t see the fault on the two models they had tried in the office, I started off by sending my 405 in for repair as that was still under warranty. It has come back and I was told the main board had been replaced.
I have now had a test ride and can say that the fault is still there. I don’t there that there is much doubt that this is a world wide software fault in Mio’s devices as three out of three units have now been doing this.
I have emailed them this and am awaiting a response.
