Here are some more information for Manifold Lines Fitting:
1. If through wall skimmer inlet and outlets are used, the skimmer must be blocked off with a block off plate to prevent any water from lying in the skimmer. The return fitting must also be blocked off by using a plug on the inside of the pool. It is very important that the return fitting not protrude into the pool and that water is not allowed to flow into the skimmer. If this is not followed, when the ice in your pool forms it will grab onto your skimmer and return fittings, and if the ice should shift it will rip your wall at these locations.
2. A properly sized ice compensator (pool pillow) must be secured in the pool water to relieve the ice pressure that can exert severe pressure on the pool wall.
3. The best way to install chemicals is before you do any winterizing processes. Super chlorinate the pool, run the filter for four to six hours, then install a winterizing kit and then put the cover on.
4. A cover must be used to keep out dirt and debris from the pool. It is important when securing the cover that enough slack is used so that it rests on the top of the water so that the pressure is not on the pool frame. A build up of snow on the top of the cover should be removed.
5. The filter should be thoroughly backwashed. If you have a cartridge or a diatomaceous earth filter, cartridge or elements should be removed sprayed down and cleaned. Next you should remove any winterizing plugs from the filter and from the pump. Next if you have a site glass on your valve that should be removed, the pressure gauge should be removed and shake out any water that might be inside. If you have an in-line Chlorinator removed the lid, remove the winterizing plug. Take out any chlorine and dispose of a properly. If you have a multi-port valve put the selector handle in between any two selections, this will hold the valve open and prevent any water laying in there that could freeze. Filter hoses should be removed and emptied. If you have a heater make sure the gas is turned off and the manifold winterizing plug is removed (don't forget to remove any plugs in the heater. Failure to do so can cause very expensive damage).
Do not cover the pump with plastic this will cause moisture to build up which will seriously damage the inside of the pump. It is a good idea or to get a heater cover to keep any debris such as leaves, acorns, etc. this could start a fire when restarting a heater next year.
While the pool is winterized it is important that it remain undisturbed throughout the winter months.
This is Right!
The cover should lie on the surface of the pool water. Leave slack, do not pull tight. Any excessive accumulation of water, or snow should be removed immediately.
This is Wrong!
Do not install the cover this tight. The weight of snow or rain will force the cover at the seams and along the pool edges.
IMPORTANT: During the winter months, inspect your pool and surrounding area. Remove any accumulation of water, ice and snow from the top of the pool and from the skimmer and return to prevent formation of an ice, water or snow load which can cause severe damage to pool and pool cover.
It is essential that you monitor the amount of snow and ice on top of your pool during the winter months. If you feel that the cable that attaches the cover to the pool is too tight and is pulling up on the pool ledges, or is creating excessive weight on the pool, release the cable at once to prevent damage to the pool.
Please note: Improper installation of your pool cover can cause damage to your pool and will void all pool and cover warranties.
Mild Climates:
Your climate permits a longer swimming season. However, if there are many weeks in which your pool will not be used, continue routine maintenance on a reduced schedule instead of completely closing your pool for the season.
1. Begin by reducing filter-running time in half. Keep pH between 7.2-7.8 and free available chlorine between 1.0 and 3.0 parts per million (use tester). Follow pool equipment manufacturer's instructions for proper care of equipment during this time.
2. If you do not cover your pool, clean your skimmer every week, maintain filter according to manufacturer's instructions and vacuum as needed.
3. Covering your pool will keep out leaves and dirt. Before covering, shock treat according to manufacturer's directions.

Top Three Performance Modifications for Your Car
So you're now bored of the modest amount of power you manage to squeeze out of your seemingly pathetic car and are looking to upgrade to a more fiery number, but how do you go about it?
Well, it largely depends on the type of engine - quite often manufacturers restrict the power from one of the engines in their current line up to provide the propulsion for one of their slightly cheaper or less sporty cars. This is usually a marketing decision to prevent the migration of customers from their more premium range to a cheaper car with the same performance, but more likely to ensure decent fuel economy and reduce emissions. In this case you probably have more chance of a significant power boost, than in a car which is already extracting full beans from the engine such as the turbocharged sub one-litre engine in the Smart. So read up on your car and find out whether the engine derivative is used elsewhere. If it is, you're in luck, but where do you start?
The most common methods to increase performance cheaply include:
1. Making it easier for the engine to take in air and get rid of waste gas
2. Modifying the electronic engine management
3. Reducing weight
1. Air intakes, exhausts and manifolds.
For the majority of cars, extracting every last horse from the engine isn't top priority for the manufacturer, reducing assembly costs is always high on the list. This includes making components with less complex curves such as those needed to allow a perfectly smooth flow of air into and out of the engine. The fluid dynamics of air as it enters and exits an engine is an extremely complex topic, which requires detailed and expensive computer modelling to ensure the optimum flow of air. Sure enough, less than perfect components are usually used in a cost saving exercise. Replacing such components with ones which aid the free flow of air is often a good way of ensuring the best efficiency of your engine with its current management settings. Do bear in mind that it's the free flow of air which is important - getting the fattest exhaust you can fit will probably compromise performance by not providing enough essential back pressure.
Key items to consider include air intake, air filter, intake manifold, exhaust manifold and exhaust pipe. K&N dominate the paper based filter market and
Pipercross do foam varieties, both companies will provide a solution for almost every car, and will even make one to fit if you know the dimensions of the pipes. These do need cleaning, usually at the service intervals, otherwise efficiency is reduced. Getting a free flowing air intake and manifold will further increase performance and the same is true for the exhaust end. The quicker the air can be expelled the less precious power is sapped forcing it out.
2. Modifying the engine management.
Almost all modern engines are now controlled by electronic engine management chips. This control almost every aspect of the engine, from the spark timing and fuel air mix to the rev limit and throttle response. When determining the factory spec all kinds of factors are considered, including fuel economy and emissions. Replacing or re-programming your chip can give instant performance gains, but usually compromises in other areas and can be expensive. Bear in mind once a chip is reprogrammed it can be expensive to reset it back to defaults.
3. Reducing weight
This may sound obvious, but reducing weight can be the easiest and most effective way of increasing performance. In real terms, the only figure that actually matters is the power to weight ratio. Reduce weight and you have the same effect as an increase in power and will also lead to more nimble handling. You'll be amazed how much weight can be lost from items such as rear seats, spare wheels, carpets, roof linings, sound deadening material....this list is extensive. This is only really an option if you are creating a dedicated track car, and you'll be equally amazed how noisy it can be without all this stuff inside!

re:swapping alternator?
i have an izuzu trooper diesel the alternator is not charging. it has a vacuum pump on it driving the brake servo. i have spare secondhand alternators that i can get to fit but they have no pump. can i botch a vacuum line from the breather manifold to the brake servo a la all petrol engines? is there a reason there is an independent vacuum pump on any diesel automobile engine i have seen?
It's because diesel engines produce no engine vacuum to speak of. Same reason that GM diesel vehicles use a hydraulic system called Hydro-Boost to run power brakes. Basically, they use a Power Steering pump to provide hydraulic pressure to a power booster that operates on that instead of engine vacuum. Your best bet would probably be to fit this vacuum pump to another Alternator.
