Interceptor (Eaton) Transmission

As you can guess, the thread is actually titled “Eric, dearbomatic”. What’s funny is that it’s Pete’s thread! Pete also started a thread called “Eric, What is it?”

Pete, do you know someone named Erik and that is why it sticks in your brain? I don't mean to pick on you, but thought you might like to know what you've been up to. Those were only the most recent dozen. You also started a thread called “Eric, What is it?” in which he correctly referred to our trans expert as Eric! I think it is more funny than anything, strange how the brain works. Probably won’t get a response until ~4am now that I imagine he is on his way home to a nice chicken dinner.

A lot of people like to say "motor" when they really mean engine. I don't think I've ever seen Pete refer to an engine as a motor. Now that is original! (grammar)

LMAO!!!

Pete,

We appreciate you, thanks for what you bring to the site.

btw, do we call them "motor" mounts or "engine" mounts.

Chuck

we also call cast plugs, freeze plugs and that is one that bothers me, i cant sleep at night thinking about it along with Peter using a K

Pete, only cause I like you.

We'll see how long C lasts. I've already got 7 guys in the pool. The next K will make somebody $50 richer.

Pete
If I was you I would get in on the pool with someone and let them know when your going to slip up, split the fifty. I'll email ya.

The topic started out as being called intervention, I watched this show last night called intervention and thats what made me think of this topic...not to change it, but this normal head of the PTA at school busy body woman fell into drinking, she would polish off 4 pints of Vodka a day and for a night capper she would guzzle a 32 ounce bottle of mouthwash, her kids were included in the show and it was a gut wrencher and i thought about it all day.
did anyone else watch the show?

This is an excellent winter thread. Props to HW for the excellent research and keen observation. I applaud Chuk for the funniest reply. I'm impressed by Quinner for his public confession.

I saw one of those intervention shows tonight for the first time...it was pretty gruesome.

I didn't see the show, but I had a friend drink himself to death a few years ago. He seemed to go from a casual drinker to a serious drunk in just a couple years. I couldn't believe how booze took over his life and how enebriated he was able to get on a daily basis. He got arrested one time because he was trying to get into the wrong house late at night. He couldn't figure why his ket didn't fit the door. He ended up with an enlarged heart and died. It was tragic.
