●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Tuesday, March 10, 2026 ●● ● Mar 10 [00:49] IsambardPrince schestowitz[TR2], I figured out what led to my O2 sensors and catalytic converter failing. [00:49] IsambardPrince It was the Ignition Control Module. [00:49] IsambardPrince It didn't fail outright, it was failing intermittently. [00:49] IsambardPrince Luckily it's not terribly hard to replace that part. You just remove the ignition coils and the module comes right out. [00:50] IsambardPrince You remove a bolt that connects the wiring harness, unplug the module, plug in the new module, and plug in the coils the same way they were on the old module. [00:51] IsambardPrince Hmm, MinceR [00:51] IsambardPrince Now Trump says Iran struck their own girl's school with a Tomahawk missile. [00:51] IsambardPrince They don't have any Tomahawk missiles. [00:51] IsambardPrince Those are made in the US and they're only sold to certain countries, and Iran isn't one of them. [00:52] MinceR lol [00:52] IsambardPrince The US, the UK, and Australia are the only ones that have them. [00:52] IsambardPrince And Japan is in the process of buying some. [00:52] IsambardPrince But none have been delivered yet. [00:52] MinceR sounds like nazi america finally realized its dream of turi [00:52] MinceR sounds like nazi america finally realized its dream of turning into muscovy [00:53] IsambardPrince It's unclear how Iran would have gotten a TLAM from any of these countries. [00:53] IsambardPrince Or why it would choose to use it on an elementary school.

[02:09] IsambardPrince Cost me $547 for a GM original parts ignition control module. [02:10] MinceR that's a lot of money for a part [02:10] IsambardPrince It is. You can get them cheaper by going with discount auto parts stuff. [02:10] IsambardPrince But I don't like those Duralast parts. [02:10] IsambardPrince They sold me a MAF sensor that didn't fit. [02:11] IsambardPrince And they sold me a pair of windshield wipers that started smearing again in about 6 months. [02:11] IsambardPrince MinceR, If the ICM doesn't work right lots of bad things can happen. [02:12] IsambardPrince Engine knocking and pinging, misfires, the car not starting, stalling out while you're driving. [02:12] IsambardPrince It's not a part you want to go cheap on.

I met the parents, and they were unbelievable people, Trump told reporters in Doral, Florida. He said the parents he met told him, finish the job, sir, please finish the job. [02:42] IsambardPrince Yes, I'm sure that's what the parents of people killed in a war to cover up the Epstein files would say. [02:43] IsambardPrince Donald Trump said he had a very good call Monday with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, who the US president said wants to be helpful in the Middle East. [02:43] IsambardPrince Yes, MinceR [02:43] MinceR lol [02:43] IsambardPrince Putin is giving the Iranians intelligence to target and kill Americans. [02:43] IsambardPrince He wants to be "helpful". [02:44] IsambardPrince "President Donald Trump said Monday his administration would be waiving certain oil-related sanctions to reduce prices. [02:44] IsambardPrince This comes as oil prices have surged since the US and Israel struck Iran and as consumers are starting to pay more at the pump. [02:44] IsambardPrince Trump didnt specify which sanctions would be lifted, saying only, We have sanctions on some countries. Were going to take those sanctions off until this straightens out. [02:44] IsambardPrince Iran and Russia are two of the most heavily sanctioned countries, both of which are oil-rich nations. Trump recently granted India a waiver to import more oil from Russia after the US and India entered a trade agreement that hinged on India cutting off oil purchases from there." [02:44] IsambardPrince ---- [02:44] IsambardPrince Well, if he doesn't mean Russia or Iran, then Venezuela would be the obvious choice. [02:44] IsambardPrince But their oil infrastructure is so degraded, it's unclear what effect it would have to lift sanctions.

[03:16] MinceR :) [03:19] IsambardPrince MinceR, I saw a weird thing in California today, someone took a picture of a gas pump showing regular was over $6 a gallon.

[03:22] IsambardPrince Never understood why they sell mid-grade. [03:22] IsambardPrince I've never seen a car that recommended that. [03:22] IsambardPrince Some gas stations advertise that they put more detergent in the premium fuel.
