How do you enter in the "So and So Wrote" boxes? :? http://www.delica.ca/forum/posting.php? ... &f=9&t=125#

Question for Mr. F when you hit the bottom of the valley when it was -13 did the temp go quickly up to the mid or lower mid zone of the gauge? Mine is barely getting above the second bottom line on the gauge? Don't want to panic but want to make sure the thermostat is closing.....for peace of mind I will take it in.

There's a button at the bottom of each post that says "Quote". You click on that and you will open a post reply window and the post you quoted will appear in the top of the field. Then you keep what you want from that quote and delete the rest, with respect of course and cautious not to alter the code or it will appear like the one above this paragraph, which I've done on purpose as a demonstration.

You can also do it from the post reply page by referencing the reference window lower down on the page. From there you can highlight and quote:

Another thing you can do is use the Quote button in the tool bar above the writing field which looks like this:
; then you click and drag your quote and put it between the two parentheses groups:
Question for Mr. F when you hit the bottom of the valley when it was -13 did the temp go quickly up to the mid or lower mid zone of the gauge?
If you leave it that way it will look like this:
Question for Mr. F when you hit the bottom of the valley when it was -13 did the temp go quickly up to the mid or lower mid zone of the gauge?
Then you add a name with an equal sign in the first group as such:

[quote =jeff chlopan ]Question for Mr. F when you hit the bottom of the valley when it was -13 did the temp go quickly up to the mid or lower mid zone of the gauge?[/quote]

Then you add the quotes(" "):

[quote ="jeff chlopan" ]Question for Mr. F when you hit the bottom of the valley when it was -13 did the temp go quickly up to the mid or lower mid zone of the gauge?[/quote ]

And it looks like this:
jeff chlopan wrote:Question for Mr. F when you hit the bottom of the valley when it was -13 did the temp go quickly up to the mid or lower mid zone of the gauge?

Click on "Show"

Spoiler:
Also, if you hover your cursor over any one of the buttons in the tool bar an explanation for that button will appear in the tip line immediately below the tool bar.
More information can be obtained from a post in "Member Introductions" called Welcome to Delica Canada: Read This Before .......

It will either answer your question or point you to where you can find the answer ~ don't forget to experiment... smiles

Thanks for the reply, I spoke to some people about the thermostat reading cold, they said that it is a common occurence, and nothing to be worried about.

GOD I LOVE NEW DELI! cant help but laugh at how many people stop to take pictures of my ride, and want to talk about her.
So, how long does its novelty take to wear off? Ive had mine for about a month, and always think about it, just want to get back to town and cruise! 8-)

Had mine since May and the Novelty has not worn off! :)

I love taking it to Washington State where I get more attention than a Ferrari if I am parked next to one! :-D :-D :-D

The temp went back up to the mid range in under 60 seconds. It was quite a fast change. I can say that I had heating problems in the past with my 2 previous vehicles, and I am now of the mind that if I ever encounter heating issues, I replace the thermostat before I do anything else.

Perfect, thanks for that info, will have the thermostat looked at tomorrow.
