Chris: Thank You!! I looked over all the photos. Of particular
interest were images (Before) preARX10 and (After at 2000 miles)
DSCF0005. This engine while varnished is not "sludged" up with the
kind of goop that would burry all but the cams and drive chain from
view. There is some -varnish- removal from using the product.
Since hearing of this product about year ago, I emailed AutoRx asking
for "same engine" progress photos. The official response I received
was very defensive and a put-off. "Same engine" progress photos make
a much better testimonial.

Very interesting. rms13.com no longer seems to exist, so I am unable to see
those pictures. Go to www.google.com, type in rms13.com and see what it

Do you think this ARX10 stuff would fix the engine shown here?

Oil servicing appropriate to the operating conditions will preclude
sludge formation ... exclusive of a mechanical or materials
deficiency. Need I point out again that motorcycles do not sludge up
and do not have positive crankcase ventilation systems. Sludge is
therefor a result of operating with contaminated oil for extended
periods.

rms13.com is not currently associated with any IP address, which usually
means one of three things:
1) The registarnt did not pay his DNS bill (if billed for that separately)
or
2) The registrant didn't pay his domain rent (not the case here)
or
3) The operators of the Web site at that IP address have committed
violations of the Terms of Service Agreement of whichever company had
hosted it last and have been cut off.

How do four stroke motorcycles ventilate the crankcase? Even Briggs and
Stratton engines have a crude form of positive crankcase ventilation (at
least the later ones). I would have thought that emission requirements
would have forced some sort of crankcase ventilation system on four
stroke engines (but not necessarily 2 stroke engines). A quick Google
search reveals that at least a few motorcycles do have PCV valves.

C. E. White <cewh...@mindspring.com> being of bellicose mind posted:
Sorry Ed... no motorcycles have a positive crankcase ventilation
valve, with the exception of BMW boxers and Italian twins. These
particular motorcycles use a reed valve to take advantage of violent
pressure/vacuum cycles in the crankcase to move blowby into the air
box between the air filter and the carburetor... a variation on
passive ventilation system. A positive crankcase ventilation system
is distinguished by a variable air flow valve (rated in CFM) directly
connecting the engine crankcase to the intake manifold which (with
the engine running) positively facilitates air movement from the
former to the latter.
Motorcycles, some older Toyota 4 cylinder engines, and your
Briggs/Stratton example do not have a PCV valve system. The system
they use is passive ... requiring the crankcase to pressurize
slightly in order to facilitate crankcase blowby to move into the
intake air stream on the atmosphere side of the throttle.

It is NOT WORKING. You are pulling the files off your ISP's caching server.
It is NOT THERE ANY MORE.
Whereisip gets its info from the exact same place everybody else does. It's
just a front end for using Internic's and ARIN's database, and the database
for the whois server that holds the domain registration info.
Please start up whereisip and tell me what IP address is associated with
that domain.

How many times?? The f***ing site is DOWN. DOWN, people, DOWN. The scum
that run this site got kicked off for spamming and false advertising.
I cannot help it that your ISP caches pages for insane lengths of time.
How many times do I have to explain to people that what they see on their

I'll post a fuller explanation once I've calmed down.

I hate to repost this, but since the page doesn't exist any longer
except on my ISPs server, I figured I would post it here.
I thought the Welcome and FAQ spelled out it pretty well.
Welcome:
Welcome to the AUTO-RX report page. This web site will document the
test of an engine cleaner available here.
I began this test because I was, to put it lightly, skeptical of the
claims made by the inventor of this product. He has plenty of
testimonials but little in the way of photographic proof.
When I presented photos of this engine to Frank, the inventor of this
product, this is what he had to say:
"This is a much lower cost option than tearing your engine apart and
cleaning by hand, even then you would not get rid of all sludge.
Auto-Rx will -- we guarantee it!"
"One of the great benefits of Auto-Rx is the fact that it cleans
sludge, varnish and all third party abrasives from your engine"
I had my doubts so I decided to put this site up where interested
parties could follow my progress.
Note: This test is not condoned or endorsed by the makers of Auto-Rx.
Nor am I affiliated with, friends of, or even remotely liked by the
makers of this product.
FAQ's
Q - How did your engine get so dirty?
A - As far as I can tell it was due to poor oil changes and possibly
overheating. I bought the car used.
Q - Why are you testing this product?
A - I simply want to see if it works as advertised. The claimed
performance of Auto-RX is remarkable.
Q - Why are you not providing an oil analysis?
A - An oil analysis would take additional time to complete and is not
necessary to see the visual effects of Auto-Rx.
Q - Well that's not very scientific!
A - This was never supposed to be scientific. Either the product
cleans or it doesn't.
Q - What are your qualifications to perform this test?
A - I feel I am qualified to pour a bottle of Auto-Rx into my engine,
drive the car, and take pictures of the result.
Q - So you are going to test this product when you don't have a degree
in chemistry, automotive engineering, etc?
A - Neither does the typical Auto-Rx customer. No one questions their
results.
Q - So you admit that there have been positive results.
A - Yep.
Q - So why are you doing your own test.
A - Because too many of those results were subjective. "My car runs
better, faster, uses less oil etc". Or, "look what was in my oil
filter after I used Auto-RX". I have been unable to find a legitimate
set of before/after photos of an Auto-Rx-cleaned engine.
Q - Will you post my before/after pictures of Auto-RX?
A - As long as they clearly show the engine and they are well
documented.
Q - I did my own test and Auto-Rx worked great!
A - Great! Send me the pics!
Q - Well, we didn't take pictures.
A - I get that a lot.
Q - Why are the camshafts in the same position in both the before and
after pics?
A - This is intentional and was done to make it easier to compare
specific areas. If you look closely they are NOT in the exact same
positions.
Q - I noticed that the first set of photos show the engine covered in
oil. Why do the other sets show a dry engine?
A - After taking the first set, the "before" photos, I noticed that
the oil film would affect the viewers ability to notice whether
cleaning was happening or not. In the next sets of photos I "patted"
the engine dry with an old t-shirt to remove the excess oil.

Aaaaand.....has anyone actually done a port check on that IP to see if port
80 is open? A port scan does not use HTTP, and thus bypasses the http
caching proxy server. I just did using NetDemon and nmap. There is NO open
port 80 at that IP address.
Reprinted below is an explanation of caching servers that I sent via email
to Philip:
-----------------------------------------------
There are two different kinds of Internet cache:
1) Your browser's cache, and
2) Your ISP's cache.
You can only monkey with your browser's cache. You cannot do anything about
the cache Earthlink runs.
In order to improve access times and end-user (you) experience, most ISPs
will store a copy of requested pages and images locally on one of their own
servers, called a caching server or caching proxy server. This is
especially useful for dialup users, but applies to everyone using most
ISPs.
The first user to request a particular page experiences whatever delay in
getting the page. The page and its associated files are drawn directly from
the Web site itself. Subsequent users will see the page load faster, but
will be unaware that they are not actually seeing the Web site itself, but
a locally stored copy of it on their ISP's own server, which the server
established at the time the original requests were made.
Most ISPs have "transparent proxies", which are caching servers that are
invisible to you. You are forced to use them and unless you know how to do
a traceroute, you will be unaware that they are throttling you through such
a proxy.
Caching servers are used in many places on the Internet. They are used to
help speed things along and to reduce load on servers downstream for
commonly requested pages. The problem with caching servers is that it can
take anywhere from hours to days before the cache is flushed or refreshed.
Therefore, a change to a site may not be visible to the end-user until the
cache is flushed and a new copy of the page is stored in the caching server
for your browser to go and grab for you to see.
If a DNS entry (the thing that links a name to a locatable numeric address)
has been yanked or has expired, you won't see that either until the cache
has been flushed and renewed. This means that at least for a while, it will
appear to the end-user that the site is still up, which is exactly what's
happening here with rms13.com.
Caching servers make it troublesome for Web page authors who are uploading
their work to remote hosting companies. They may have to wait for some time
before seeing their handiwork online unless they are with an ISP that is
willing to let you bypass their proxy/caching server. Your ISP, Earthlink,
is not one of them.
My ISP, unlike most, has an optional caching proxy server. I do not use
it, which is why I'm seeing the change to the DNS record before you do.

Thanks. Philip already emailed me with two of the pics. I thought they were

Site works fine here. No proxy used. IP address reported by nslookup is same

I also tried telnet 69.56.130.147 on port 80, and I can GET pages manually.

Thanks for taking the time to post....there was definitely a debate on
whether or not the site was up or down.

This is getting curious.
My iStop DSL account comes with a built-in backup dialup account with a
company called tht.net. Since I came up totally blank no matter whether I
used my ISP's name server or my own, and no matter whether I went through
port 80 to the IP or not, I just now tried dialing up and connecting to
rms13.com with the dialup. The dialup DHCP server does not appear to
replace my name server with its own, which is odd.
Well guess what? It worked. It's there. And just like Car Guy says, it says
"Welcome Tegger!" (I'm famous!)
I have emailed tech support for my ISP to see if they have any info on this
issue. Will report back as soon as I hear from them.

Yeah. I just emailed tech support for my ISP. This is getting weird.
Do me a favor if you can? Go to that page on tegger.com where I said you
changed your oil every 3K. If Earthlink has flushed its cache, you should
see 4,500 in place of the 3,000.
If you see 4,500, then Earthlink flushes its cache in hours not days, and
I've got an issue with my ISP.

SENATOR ZELL MILLER DEMOCRAT OF GEORGIA, the nation's most prominent
conservative Democrat, said today he will endorse President Bush for
re-election in 2004 and campaign for him if Bush wishes him to. Miller
said Bush is "the right man at the right time" to govern the country.
The next five years "will determine the kind of world my children and
grandchildren will live in," Miller said in an interview. And he
wouldn't "trust" any of the nine Democratic presidential candidates with
governing during "that crucial period," he said. "This Democrat will
vote for President Bush in 2004."

I was being ... indirect ... suggestive of what SHOULD have been
done. Must have thrown you for a loop, eh? LOL

Sounds to me like your ISP has issues and needs to fix some things.

I got a return email from iStop. They are able to access www.rms13.com with
no trouble.
On a hunch, I tore down my router's firewall, which restored connectivity
to www.rms13.com. Looks like I have a firewall config problem to fix. Odd
that it only affects this IP...
I apologize to Aaron for calling him a spammer.
