Agreed, and to confirm, yes it is sealant/rtv that they use to seal it up. A piss poor idea IMO, and tightning the bolts could make it worse. What is happening is that the sealant is squeezing out from where it's supposed to be. Tightning the bolts could assist in the problem. Kind of a...
I agree 100% with radar. I too dislike Lincolns myself, but it's personal preference. It all depends on what you plan on using it for, but trust me, if you don't plan on heavy use right now, it will turn into it in the future. I started with a small, cheap Lincoln 110v model. After a year or...
I'd vote an injector cup myself, and I agree about not running it. Possibly a hg, but usually they'll pressurize the coolant system instead of burning it.
I don't run it, but looked into it for my 02 before I sold it. Gains were claimed for up to 75hp at the wheels, but apparantly it's more like 30 (rwhp). Install looked to be a breeze if you like to tinker and have ok electrical skills. I planned to run mine on a Hobbs switch, that way it...
Lookin good. I've always loved those cars, and I love white too. Very clean with low miles, that's about impossible to find around here anymore. If they did exist within the past 10 years, the brothers have already destroyed them by now.
It seems for me, the time is never right. Everytime I see a potential stoplight race, it never works out, never finding eachother side by side. Well, tonight was the first cruise night for the season in Lansing, IL, so the wife and I cruised up to see the cars, etc... Well, on the way home...
Sweet, I just did the same to my one trailer. I put a set of crappy used tires on it on the stock steelies a while back, and one by one they've been going. Believe it or not, Menards has the wagon wheels/tires on the shelf ready to go for $90. I also wound up with one good one which is now my...
I hear ya. I agree about factory defects, but the Ford/Navistar history with the 6.0L, this doesn't look good. I'd assume that not too many 08's have 50k on them yet.
Just sharing, and not trying to rub it in, but...................A guy in town has a 2008 6.4 PSD that he uses for transporting his taxidermy, decor, natural furniture, etc... It's a crew cab box truck with a 12-14' box on it. Well, I guess on a trip to South Carolina or something, it quit...
I'm with Unit...................how many miles?? Plugs should go an easy 100k, and I'd replace them with whatever came stock. Air filters can definately do it too. As far as fuel filters go, I really agree with that one. No one changes them. They all need to be designed like our diesels and...
Nice. That's one thing I miss with my 02....................5" exhaust and a bastard stack (2 things I guess). All the smoke one could dream of. The looks you get are priceless.
Damn, now you guys got me thinking about it. How much of a pain in the ass is the process to do? I have 2 Dmaxes, and have at least 1 buddie that would do it with me. I'd imagine I could use it for my equipment? (Case diesel trencher and IR 185 compressor). Sorry, I know nothing about this...
I wanted to, but it came up so freakin quick. I didn't even look for tickets yet $$$. I'm supposed to be down at 41 with a buddie of mine helping tune his car.
This is probably stuff you already thought of, but.............Disconnect the pump and see if it still loses charge. If it's an ignition problem, it would still drain eslewhere. Did you pay attention to if it kept running or if it shut off after a few seconds? Maybe it just lost prime. If it...
588 BBC. Will handle up to a 350 shot once we get it dialed in where it needs to be-Prolly start with around 2-250. Got the gear swapped out and gained 3mph, but lost a tenth. Having a little trouble leaving. Dialing in susp and trans brake, maybe going with a softer compound slick too...
