    looking for newer truck

    Got some bad news. That line was crossed. And not a single shot was fired. Despite a driver's license physically sitting in your wallet, RealID turned it into a digital ID complete with facial recognition ability, fingerprint(s) and financial account information. Oh, and it is RFID readable...

    looking for newer truck

    Yes, I totally get peer pressure. And that is exactly why I got the nearly new SUV which which replaced the Burb. Wife never liked the Burb. Only really got the newer SUV as I knew the wife would love it and I was tired of the Burb needing too much unscheduled love. The newer thing had...

    looking for newer truck

    There are two ways to look at this: 1) Will repairs exceed the vehicle's value. 2) Investing in future use of a reliable platform with the intent to keep as long as possible. Caveat is that spare parts remain commonly available. Only downside to this path is whether any of today's technology...

    Plumbing done, on to the next....

    Could not see from the photos on whether there was a ECT sensor in the head. Or more specifically, if one is not in the port by cylinder #8, might consider this. Benefits are twofold. Serves as a stand-by should the primary ECT sending unit by unplugging from #1 and connecting to the port...

    Toro 220D tach Misubishi L3C

    Isn't there a gizmo which straps to one of the injection lines and is able to measure the fuel pulse? IIRC, Leroy had them for sale for a while.

    Final details for my "Twisted" P400 build

    Chicken! :D Afraid of eating some steamed crabs instead of boiled like they do in the Low Country? :) :) :)

    Final details for my "Twisted" P400 build

    Rustoration is on a veeeerrrryyyy sllllooooowwww track. Have the truck in parts and am waiting on the shop owner for the body work. Body work is done as a side business and there is already another vehicle in the way. So, just waiting this one out. In the interim, I am running an OBS Ferd...

    Runaway accelerator

    X-2 for focusing on the IP. Try the RPM test by slowly pressing the throttle to increase RPM's to 2,000, hold for a few seconds, and slowly release. Repeat 10 times (not kidding) - If the RPM's smoothly match the throttle inputs (ie: RPM's perfectly track the throttle) on each cycle, IP is...

    1952 Ferguson TO30

    At the risk of insulting, watch the slope trajectory. Last thing you'll want is for a heavy downpour to direct ground water *at* the house. And, am seeing an awesome sledding hill in the making :)

    Coolant Filter - Who's running them?

    I run one, but it is in a completely different engine known for leftover sand from the casting which works lose over time. It is just a plane filter (no additive tablets / membranes) which works in the same manner as a stand-alone bypass filter as Will described. Have not seen any real need...

    Best PC and tablet web browser without tracking

    Apologies for tardiness to the game. Looks like the technical issue was addressed. One last consideration is to look into having the tablet do a complete system wipe and start fresh to clear out any conflicting add-on gunk. No real harm in going this route, but make sure to offload any files...

    Vegetable Gardens

    Ok, so now I know where to go when looking for a group of folks who either full of 'it', or know their 'it' :D

    1989 Suburban Beast

    Welcome to TTS! IIRC, GM's dually configuration from that era were an attorney's manna from heaven as the brakes were under-powered which resulted in collisions when loaded heavy. As noted, the stated plans are known to have the opposite effect on goals, so please help the community understand...

    Garage for Humster.

    Wondered if we would get any more updates on this thread given the clamp-downs on internet traffic from this region of the world. Hope all is well and the complete truth is able to flow.
