    PMD heat sink, alternate locations and other uses.

    I've had mine in the space behind the ABS unit on drivers side for years with no issues, but yes I do carry a spare PMD just in case. Cheers Nobby

    Yeah my OEM tee's are still in good shape, I just need to replace the front core hoses. OEM are discontinued, the part guy gave me a full print out of the whole system and part numbers I'll post that here at some point. I have come up with the following Gates numbers: 18076 - 5/8" x 3/4" with...

    Cabin Heater Hose Size

    Fighting a persistant weep on my heater hose. Can someone confirm that the front cabin heater pipes are 5/8" and 3/4"? The Tee at the top is 3/4 and so the black hose that goes to the smaller pipe is a reduction hose. Anyone got a part number for that I really dont want to screw around with...

    6.5 stuttering from stand still. Smooth otherwise

    Nothing against all the increase fuel supply mods (FTB) and I'm sure it technically is an improvement. However I do sometimes ponder just how necessary for some moving to a non stock style pump and the necessary plumbing adaptations is. I run fully loaded with tools all the time and pull a...

    Fan Clutch Testing

    No i do not really have a specific number, all I can say is that I hear it more than when it was stock. I'd say though that it was before 210, definitely before 217. Cheers Nobby

    Fan Clutch Testing

    I have the Kennedy and it definitely locks up earlier than stock. 2nd the carboard trick, I run a winter cover and hearing the fan in spring is my reminder to remove it. Cheers Nobby

    Anybody have heater hose/core flow data?

    I get that and whilst I have only given this so much thought there is plausibly merit in looking at temp differential using accurate temp measurement. Perhaps a waste of time but I'd most likely play around with installing a Tee and digital temp gauge and sender and seeing if I could establish...

    Anybody have heater hose/core flow data?

    As Will said normally differential gauges for establishing a clogged filter, however a crucial part to this discussion is that it is a circulating pump and hence creates a pressure differential to create flow so in a non pressure building pump set up not really most likely workable. So back to...

    6.5 Turbo Fuel System Diagrams (and advice)needed

    I moved my FFM over to the space above the power steering pump where the 2nd alt option is supposed to go makes for easier filter changes and opens up the rear of the engine area. Cheers Nobby

    My new truck

    That sucks. Gotta say I am not impressed with what I am seeing/hearing regarding Champion. Whilst they do continually honor their warranty claims and pay for the shipping, my mate is on his third rad already in the space of only a few years. At what point does your labor and downtime outstrip...

    Suburban E Brake Cable Bracket Mount Picture

    Yeah, but I did not see a kit offered for the 14 bolt semi back when I did my conversion. Cannot find it on their website now either unless I'm going blind or something! No matter I'm married to the TSM kit now anyways.

    Suburban E Brake Cable Bracket Mount Picture

    Hi, Can somebody do me a favour and snap a picture of the bracket/cables located on the driver side forward rear spring mount on a late 90's Suburban. The E brake cables pass through and mount to this. I reconfigured this to a different cable setup for my rear disc conversion and am making...
