Does anyone know how I can frost up my frost free refrigerator?

Re: has anyone been able to do a burn out in there ridgeline??

Except that the rev limiter won't allow higher than 4,000 RPMs in neutral.

The only way I know to do a burnout in an RL (in theory) is to pull the VTM-4 fuse (to prevent the electromagnetic clutches in the rear from engaging), set the parking brake, turn the VSC off, then put the pedal to the metal. If you're lucky you might get a little chirp, but I suspect it would simply drag the rears and grunt forward.

Maybe do all of the above except the parking brake. Get 4 brave souls; each with a gallon bleach to apply under each tire. Stand on the brake and floor board the throttle. May get a little smoke before the drive system self destructs!!

Sure, disconnect the temperature sensor so the heating coil won't come on....oh wait....that might not be a good idea.....you might run the risk of hydrolocking your refrigerator.....

Well, to avoid the possibility of Refrigeratus Hydrolockitus, it's a simple mod in addition to HP's suggestion of disconnecting the temp sensor. First, you need an Arctic Spansor Hydrometer, readily available at your local Appliance Repair Shop; expect to pay in the neighborhood of $35 for the tool.

Once you have located the tool, you need to apply it to the Acqua-Sprocket Spring Tensioner in a counter clock-wise rotation with 8.2ft/lbs of torque. Warning: Do NOT over torquer the spring tensioner as this will lead to refrigerator hydrolocking if the temperature sensor is disconnected.

Once the Aqua-Sprocket Spring Tensioner is set to the correct torque, you will be able to release pressure from the heating coil. Note: It is a common myth that refrigerators do not have heating coils, as this is counter-intuitive to the whole "cooling" feature of the refrigerator.

With minimal or no pressure in the heating coil and the Acqua-Sprocket Spring Tensioner set correctly, you will be able to enjoy a thick and lustrous blanket of frost build up in your very own refrgerator. This frost is also compatible with the optional SnowConeus Adapter, which creates a wonderful surprise after dinner treat for the family.

Please see your Doctor or Pharmacist about this age old remedy...

Stupid is as stupid does reminds me of what I did last night, showing off at a cruise night last night some guy in a 69 Chevelle SS with a 396 six pack did a burn out, I thought I would be cool and show him my little Toyota CelicaGTS can do a burn out too , so I put it in 1st, rev'd it a bit popped the clutch did a great burnout and showed him, the only problem is I'm replacing the clutch and pressure plate in my car this week-end.AT least is wasn't my RL

Fill it full of water and turn the temp all the way down as low as it will go. Add ice if needed. Are you any kin to Jack Frost??

Voices, you just crack me up! And hey, based on your highly intelligent and mega-thoughtful answer to the refrigerator issue, you'll LOVE this video ........ YouTube - Turbo Encabulator - Rockwell Is this guy kin to you??

LOL!

Where to begin on how wrong some of his assumptions and assertions are!

I'd start with his errors in theory and then proceed to show how those errors led to the assertions that are at best nebulous and sometimes downright heretical. At least that's how I'd approach it.

Apparently it can be done!! I would have never thought it could be done! Still don't think the RL can do that without serious problems!!

The AWD Burnout video - the truck is tethered by a rope to the hitch area - you can see it at the beginning of the video.

I was waiting for a tire to pop! That would have been cool!

 

[djeaux]

I was admiring all the burnt rubber slung up on the doors & back fender area. Much fun clean up.

With the OEM Michelin's at about $170 each, I am surprised anyone would want to spin the tires!!

 

[Tcape]

Who hijacked this thread! Geez....I thought we were talking about refrigerator issues. And I thought Voices answer resolved the whole issue.

 

[Ghoster]

I have seen many Trailblazer SS's do AWD burn outs. Thats what you get when you combine a large v8 with a mid sized suv. I got all 4 wheels to spin on mine last winter. Stomp on it while on a sheet of ice, they will spin..... for a couple seconds. Then all the pretty pretty lights start flashing on the dash and the damn thing starts applying the brakes even though your foot is on the floor. I wasn't really trying for a burn out though, I just wanted to see if I could lose control. I did... the RL didn't.
