I own a 2004 Honda Element, automatic transmission, 2WD in great condition. My questions: 1. Do I need to adjust the element to run with greater effeciency at high altitude? (we moved here from Chicago) 2. Will shifting into neutral when going down a mountain help save on gas? Wed, 13 Sep 2006 10:30:22 -0700 http://www.guruza.com/question/443/reward-15.00/799 I have a SyncMaster 172N flat screen monitor that has recently gone on the fritz. It started out innocently enough: a single pixel green stripe running vertically from the top to bottom of the display appeared one day. I thumped the monitor, wiggled the connector and it appeared to go away. A month later thumping and wiggling didn't accomplish anything. Then one day quite unnexpectedly the entire screen erupted into a screen saver like animated globular colors. If I turned the monitor off, waited, and turned it back on the display would revert back to a usable one-green-stripe mode. But eventually, the total screen meltdown would come back. Its now gotten to the point where I have only a few minutes after turning the monitor on before it becomes completely unusable. Can I fix this? How would I go about it? My understanding has always been that fixing a flat screen monitor costs at least as much as its replacement. However, I have found a couple posts out there on the internet that suggest otherwise, provided that you are enterprising (for example http://experts.about.com/q/Monitor-Problems-2115/lcd-monitor-probs.htm).
