I have spent endless time advising you on this matter. Rather than take notice, you constantly simply take the easy option of bringing the matter up in additional threads. Real effort at your end is never indicated.

You must excuse me for ending my patience, enough is enough.

post 3 (trevor) is a strait guy, so heed his voice
post 2 is valid in that these are ways for you to test your cars parts for free, and allow you to get to the bottom of it all, fixing your issue.

Your continual sarcasm is becoming rather boring, but has some value, in that you again confirm a level of intellect, and valid reasons for disdain.

Please be sure that my rather straight forward comments were intended as practical assistance rather than as derogatory.

You have initiated several threads detailing the same problems and it is not reasonable to expect repetitive answers.

Please take more time to read the advice you have been given and in particular make an effort to answer questions put to you by those trying to help you.

Go back over your posts and again read the information already recorded and which represent members freely given time and effort. We are here to help, but you must accept that you should do your share.

On a previous occasion you advised that you could not understand my words. In reply I asked you if English is, or is not, your main language, but as usual there was no reply. Please now take the trouble to check back and answer that post, as it is raises an issue of real importance.

Sincerely, Trevor.

I am sure that I now fully understand you and all that is involved, hopefully having gained wisdom through having been around for a while. What is more, I have at no time in any way been offended.

You are a most certainly a nice person and this is what matters. I trust that all here will respect you accordingly.

Sincerely, Trevor.

TrevOR.
I apologize for my tactless remark. Your kindness is appreciated and teaches a valuable lesson.
Thanks again and take care...
Keith

I almost replied that you are not required to read my continual sarcasm but that would be out of character for the new kinder, gentler kwren.
Hope your day is going well!
again, Keith

Keith,

You have my sincere thanks, particularly as you have given me the opportunity to address you by name. Let this seal a lengthy friendship.

Achieving complete understanding is not an easy task when text is the only medium available, but we appear to have got there and it is you who is due credit.

Sincerely, Trevor.

The mods who have been trying to merge and make sense of the multiple related threads offer our wholehearted thanks for pointing this out!
One might also note that detailed thread titles when asking for technical help make it much more likely that those with the knowledge to help will find them

A sticky would be a good idea covering this point, as well as the advantages to be gained in respect of sensible thread headings. For the good of all, these should provide a sensible/accurate description regarding the topic involved. Many are useless, confusing and stupid.

Unfortunately there is evidence of a growing tendency for those asking for assistance, to exert very little reciprocative effort. To be frank, selfishness is a problem.

N.B. These remarks are in no way directed towards the originator of this thread.
