That reminds me of a joke I once heard regarding the knuter valve!.....What's the difference between a knuter valve and a knuter shaft?....Oh, about 6 inches!! :th: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :lol:

You guys realize there's no such thing as a "Knuter Control Valve" right?

Everyone that knows anything about cars knows it's called a "Kuhneutson Valve" and it's only $65.99! Make sure you replace your muffler bearing while your at it. They have a chrome one for performance enthusiasts!

The last time I had the engine rebuilt the guy said I could benefit from a little known NEW secret, piston return springs. I went for the performance chrome package. Cost a little more, but can I feel the extra power. :D

cheers jer :mrgreen:

As long as you at you might as well go all out and get blinker fluid while your at it.

If an H-pipe is good in the exhaust, and an X-pipe is better, nothing beats the "O" pipe.

Was outside (summer ) working on a car and a buddy was more so getting in the way. so, I sent him in the garage to get a muffler bearing. kept him busy for about 3 hours. another time, I just got out of the army and worked at a big chemical plant. some guys sent me out for a pipe stretcher, I was gone for the rest of the day. told them I went to every building and couldn't find one. needless to say they figured out who could put one over on who. kind of like a drywaller ask if you can spot screws and you say yup I can see one there and there and there ( pointing at the screws ). gotta love it when people think they're smart asses and you walk away while they are :bang: :bang: :bang:

At the shop I work at we use magnetic drills for drilling holes 1/2" and larger in thick material we use on the oil field equipment we build. I had a new guy working with me one night trying to drill some pretty good sized holes in some stainless steel buy hand. I told him it might be easier if he found the stainless mag drill, so he went off on a search for it walking through the shop asking everyone if they had seen it. He even walked down to our south shop (100 yards from the main building) trying to find it. After about 30 minuets somebody broke down and let him know that stainless steel was none magnetic. :lol:
The story I like the most is some guys at a shop sent a new guy out to find a sky hook. He was gone for a couple of hours and when he showed back up he was driving a crane with SKYHOOK in big letters down the boom. So who got the last laugh?
