    I am having the same problems with condensation and i have a venmar system. It has a high and a low setting and an outside temp dial. I run the furnace at 70 degrees all the time. I am the second owner of the house and i have no idea what settings it should be on. I have used it on high and low and turned the outside temp dial to the current temp outside and have seen no improvement of the condensation problem. The house was built in 2003. The house humidity has been in the 30’s. When it gets really cold the entire window is covered with frost and even ice. Anyone know what setting this thing should be on. The house has pella double pane windows.

    Don’t worry about the game guys you did’t miss a thing just cutler throwing the ball to the 49ers every chance he got. Had the 49ers brought there A game they could have had 10 ints easy..Not only is Denver looking really good after this game but Brad Childress is also looking sweet for nixing our trade for cutler at the last minute……….He looked terrible but maybe he will look better next year when they buy some receivers to catch the ball.

    I remember last year the vikes beating the saints in New Orleans on monday night with another old QB Gus Frerrote. We are better than most this year. Just hope we all stay healthy for the run.

    I think the whole Brett Favre saga was started by Ted Thompson. Bottom line…Brett wanted Ted to trade a 4th round pick to the raiders for Randy Moss…Ted did not listen to Favre…..Brett Favre then asked Thompson to sign Moss when he became a free agent….Again Thompson ignores Favre….I think after this Favre thought to heck with this guy i am gone!!!!!!!!!

    I use Costa DelMar sun glasses and they are great for looking in the water. They have many coatings that block harmful rays and increase your ability to see into the water. They also resist scratching and breaking as i have dropped my pair on the cement before. They may cost a little more but they last forever. I think i have had mine for 6 or 7 years. Before i bought them i was buying a new pair every year due to breakage or scratching.

    I think the only constructive thing we can do now is communicate with the dnr and hope they will hear what we are saying. Maybe they will listen and grant a meeting to discuss the rugulations on all rochester area fisherys. There job is to protect and make better the fisherys of mn. Email the DNR Information Center [email protected] for any other comments or questions on DNR policies or practices.

    Have any of the other reservoir’s in the rochester area been “fished out”. I was under the impression that they were all petty good with good numbers of fish still in them.

    http://www.pickuptruck.com has the full story on the recall.

    5.7-liter Toyota Tundras Hit with Camshaft Failures
    By: Mike Levine Posted: 05-28-07 12:09 PT
    © 2007 PickupTruck.com

    Page: [1]

    Update #3: 05-31-07 11:57 PT

    Playing down the imminence of a recall, Toyota spokesperson Bill Kwong tells PickupTruck.com that, “It’s still too early to tell if a recall is necessary, but if it is, we’ll initiate it.”

    But even a limited recall could turn into a very expensive proposition for the OEM. Jim Hossack, vice president and head of the pickup truck consulting practice at AutoPacific, a West Coast marketing and consulting firm, estimates the costs at upwards of $5000 per truck to replace a broken 5.7-liter i-Force V8 motor.

    “At this point, they’ll probably issue a TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) to their dealers, instead of doing a recall,” says Hossack.

    $5000 for each engine swap could be a relative bargain though versus the short term cost that this incident has caused Toyota’s reputation for building high quality automobiles.

    Still, Hossack thinks both Toyota and the Tundra will be fine in the long run because of Toyota’s relatively unblemished quality record.

    “Toyota will be forgiven and will come out of this unscathed, as long as there are no other major problems after this, but if the same situation had happened to a company like Hyundai, they’d be skewered,” says Hossack.”

    Tundra owners impacted by a failed camshaft will face their own costs, especially if they depend on their truck for their livelihood. In this case, Bill Kwong says Toyota dealers will do what they can to help.

    “Our dealers have approximately 1,600 new Tundras nationwide for disposal as a loaner vehicle while a customer’s truck is being repaired,” says Kwong, “and that doesn’t include older Tundras and Tacomas.”

    Toyota has also been proactively managing the camshaft problem with some of its most loyal fans. Toyota communications and public relations reps have posted apologies and responses to comments in online discussion forums at ToyotaNation.com, a general Toyota news and community website, and at TundraSolutions.com, an online neighborhood of Tundra and other Toyota vehicle owners.

    Update #2: 05-31-07 02:10 PT

    The Detroit News, after speaking with a Toyota spokesperson on Wednesday, is reporting, “[Toyota] may recall Tundras equipped with 5.7-liter V-8s to replace the engines.”

    Update #1: 05-28-07 22:50 PT

    In a written reply to our inquiry asking for further clarification on the number of 5.7-liter engines potentially impacted by the camshaft issue, Toyota spokesperson Mike Michels tells PickupTruck.com, “The casting defect was found very early and immediately corrected. Because the heart of the Toyota production system is the continuous flow “just in time” method, there is no such thing as a “batch” of engines. In general the same holds true for suppliers, who keep very small inventories. So the advantage is that problems are quickly found, countermeasures taken rapidly and there aren’t large quantities of potentially defective parts in the system.

    As a result only a very few production engines were effected from the
    earliest production. No, this absolutely will not impact all 30,000 5.7
    liter engines sold to date. It will be a very small number. 20 units
    represents less than 0.06 percent of vehicles sold. We are confident that very few customers will experience the problem but pending the on going analysis it is not possible to give a precise number.”

    For Tundra customers who might be impacted by a faulty camshaft, Michels added the following, “As mentioned in the story, rather than replacing the camshaft, many customers whose engines have a broken camshaft are receiving a new engine, via airfreight to the dealer. Feedback from customers indicates that this exceeds their expectations.

    Two side notes:

    1.) I’d like to thank Mr. Michels for his very rapid response back to us during this Memorial Day holiday.

    2.) I also corrected a typo, where I mistakenly said Toyota will pay the costs to replace the entire engine of any new Tundra with a failed crankshaft. It should have said ‘camshaft’. I regret the error.

    – Mike

    The launch of the all new 2007 Tundra full size pickup continues to go anything but smoothly for Toyota. Automotive News is reporting on a string of twenty recent camshaft failures in Tundras equipped with popular i-Force 5.7-liter DOHC V8 motors. Toyota is trying to determine how many of the 30,000 engines built so far might be affected by, “…a metallurgical defect in the casting,” according to Toyota spokesperson Mike Michels in the story. The company is blaming the defect on the camshaft’s supplier and says it has been corrected.

    A camshaft is a metal rod with lobes, or cams, that spin and push open an engine’s intake and exhaust valves to let the air/fuel mixture into the engine and the exhaust out during combustion. Double overhead cam motors, like the 5.7-liter V8, use four cams – two per head – to allow for better gas flow and more power.

    Toyota will pay the costs to replace the entire engine of any new Tundra with a failed camshaft.

    This bad news for Toyota follows surprising and disappointing four star safety ratings in government crash tests, unexpected incentive pricing to kick start sales of regular cab Tundras, and at least $430 million in cost overruns building the Tundra’s new Texas manufacturing plant.

    I have heard you can bring the filter you use now to an auto parts store and they can cross reference it with what they sell and they can give you one of there motorcycle filters that are the same and cost around $3.

    I caught a 21.5 incher last oct on a 10 inch Believer muskie lure. It was a tank of a fish. Never weighed it just released it to swim again. The thing jumped 3 or 4 times. I seem to catch a big one like that about once a year while miskie fishing.

    In the new regulation book for 2007 there is a whole list of new muskie lakes with the new 48inch regulations. Most every major muskie lake in minnesota has the new regulation.
    I just noticed there is a handfull of lakes that are not on the list that i think should be and others that are on the list that probably don’t even have fishable numbers in the lake.
    I am all for the new regulation i just don’t know why some are covered and some are not.

    I had a teacher in school who always used marvel mystery oil in his diesel. He said before he started using it the engine would run rough and start rough.
