Yeah, do a search instead of burdening us with your inane questions. A perfect step by step was posted about a week ago. All these ******* noob questions are really starting to **** me off.

You can use "search" and google.com just as well as the rest of us, lazy ****.

This link might help. My suggestion would be to go to to your local Pep Boys or similar store, and pick up a Chilton or Haynes manual for your car. They aren't as detailed as a Helms, but they will help you a great deal in working on your car.

Oh and by the way Archidictus, looking back at some of your threads, there are a few that could easily have been answered by a H-T or Google search, so perhaps a little more tolerance is in order.

Not only am I going to ask for proof, but I'm going to insist that you tell me why it took you more than one try to write that.

I'll be waiting.

I initially replied to the original question, but then went back and researched your old topics after considering the harshness of your reply. Respect and consideration for other members isn't much to ask, and it's what helps keep this board the great place that it is.

Note that these aren't "how to" questions. Those are what get me.

Alright, but you could just as easily searched and read through the numerous existing (even at that point in time) threads pertaining to the 712's.

In this case, a simple Google search could have definitively answered the question.

Fair enough.

OK, but it helps to keep in mind that we were all new to the board at one time or another and have varying degrees of mechanical ability and knowledge. In any case, I can't see a need for such an offensive reply. It takes no more effort to answer a question or to civilly suggest a search than to post an unkind response.

I agree. Being a newer member to the board there is sooo much flaming at newer members who ask questions. I'm not complaining, and haven't personally had anyone freak out on me, but I'm just saying why can't we keep this the same imformative board it was designed to be, without the power trips of people that think they know too much. Just my opinions...

Since this thread has veered way OT anyway...

Great avatar, Jeffrey. I first saw that sign on a trip down to FL, and I forced us to stop on the way back so I could pose for a photo on the side of the highway.
