Diesel Forums?

I just got an e-mail from another Diesel owner ( Mercury Topaz Diesel from the U.S.) looking for some parts and advice.

As you Diesel owners know it's hard to find anyone with Diesel experience

I've got some extra web space, and am 1/2 wondering if it would be worth it to start a Diesel forum on it. Dedicated to all Diesel powered Vehicles

I know that it would't get many members, but I'm sure that all Diesel auto owners could use some advice from time to time

What do you think?

Thanks

Why don't you just contact the admin here and get him to start one. Then you can contribute all you want and not have to use your server space/time/bandwidth.

The sites below are dedicated to Toyota diesel pickups & 4-Runners:

These are 11 Toyota DIESEL 4-Runner/pickup sites:

The way the price of gasoline (petrol for Australians) is going I suggest that everyone convert their Toyotas to diesel as they are more:

fuel efficient
higher torque
waterproof
simpler
reliable
safer
can idle all day long
less overheat episodes
can burn bio diesel or vegetable oil (without glycerin)

Re: Diesel Forums?

Sidney - Great post, but you have to separate colons and parentheses or turn off smilies. Otherwise, the software interprets a colon-parenthesis as as you have used in your phone numbers. Separate them by a space and they appear as : (

Similarly, colon p becomes unless separated by a space or smilies are off.
