bon_jing I've been an Ericsson user since 1996, and have never regretted the decision. I work in construction and I can vouch that the Ericsson models are more tougher. I've tried other brands, but I keep on going back to Ericsson after a few months.

bon_jing Try checking the Fuel Filter. Looks like you have a bit of choking on the delivery of your fuel.

thalhah @thalhah (16) • Malaysia 26 Aug 07

I don't know wheter to choose between cooper or austin.

mini

3 responses

bon_jing The old Austin mini-cooper (70s) are great cars, but hard to find spare parts. While the new model Coopers (like the ones used in the movie THE ITALIAN JOB) are quite expensive, but you just ride and drive. Still your choice.

bon_jing Going to the Mall every weekend can be quite tiresome, boring and EXPENSIVE. HEHEHEHEHE. Been there, done that. I try to vary our "weekend experiences" with my kids. Sometimes, we go Kite Flying. Other times we go Biking. One time we went to Manila Zoo,...

bon_jing It's hard to run away from your fears. Because sooner or later it will catch up with you and bite your behind. Usually when this happens, it's a big bite. So I would say to you the same thing I say to my kids. FACE YOUR FEARS as early as you can and you'll...

Stock or tuning cars?

kc4144 @kc4144 (34) • Mexico 2 Aug 07

I mean some cars are great just as they are but do you think it could be better with a little of your help, buying some aftermarket parts, body kit, adding a new special paint and big rims?

3 responses

bon_jing It would all depend on your intentions for your car. If you're into racing, obviously you'll buy aftermarket performance parts like NOS System, springs, Hi-performance tires, etc. If you're planning to be a poser, you'll be getting body kits, boom-boom...

bon_jing I think your water's infected with ICH. You've already put NOX-Ich into your system so that would take care of future Ich infections. As for the present infected fish, you can either put Methylene Blue or 1 Tablespoon of Salt for every 10 gallons of tank...

bon_jing On the contrary, it's easy to raise goldfish. The basics is to have good aeration and filtration. Allow me to share with you what I know. First you have to know the capacity of your aquarium (how many gallons). The ideal ratio would be 1 goldfish for every...
