I wanted to put this in the how to forum but it said I didnt have sufficient permission, so, here it is.
This is from Dave, a FB vehicle repair specialist that also does a lot of videos.
His procedures are spot on and never misleading.
Here he has a cast iron block repair specialist that casts...
Just curious.
I know that there most likely is nothing out there that can restore wore and hardened clutch pack seals, so thats not as much about this thread as what might be used to smooth out shifting without causing slipping in the clutch packs.
This 1991 Oldsmobile Royal 88 has a 4T60E...
There is slight grooves eaten into the aluminum intake manifold.
Slight enough to be caught with the pinky finger finger nail.
I used a sanding block and did a good cleanup on the gasket rails of the heads and the intake manifold to help minimize the pitting.
I have these Felpro manifold...
This is on that 1991 Oldsmobile Royal 88 with the 3800 engine. I am guessing that stands for 3.8.
Anyhow, got the H-Balancer removed and behind that, in order to get the CPS removed, this debris shield needs to come off.
It has three stud affairs with knobs on on the ends. Attaching the shield...
Step sons 1970 C20 pickup. SBC 350.
It has the choke mechanism like whats in the picture.
The base on that spring gets barely above skin temperature.
I am thinking that the passage through the intake manifold is plugged and not allowing the choke stove portion to get warm enough to allow the...
Just thinking about alternate locations for the PMD and the heat sink.
I have not checked to see if there would be room.
Inside the K47 air filter box. If there would be room, there would be a constant flow of air, even at idle.
Be more air flow when idling than behind the bumper.
Also, a spare...
Just curious if anyone has explored that idea.
I did a search and could not find a thread about this.
The trucks this weed service uses is all older Fords with the IH Power Stroke engines.
With a load of about 650 gallons of water on these one ton duallies, pulling a trailer with two Honda four...
This guy has a couple of videos of busted blocks but I have not found the process or who he has do the repairs.
I also have not found what the finished product looks like.

Got the results from the oil samples that I sent off to Blackstone.
As the suggestion line states, I have some bigger fish to fry.
Probably will have to tap the screen shots, then expand the in order to read them.
Not mine but with only 127,000 miles might be okay.

Boat trailer dog tracking baaaad.
Scuffed off one side of the tires.
Removed tires/wheels, fenders, fender mounts, bearings and hubs and ball hitch to get more accurate measures.
Measuring from the front of the square hitch tube to the center bolts is perfect both sides. 144-1/4”.

Curious if there is one brand better than others.
These from Amazon seem to have a good rating.

Anyone have suggestions of where a superior set might be ordered from ?
I have, in the past, searched the internet for an answer to this question.
How frequently should the AC clutch kick on then off.
If this is not normal, what can cause such a situation ?
I have installed a new clutch, temperature from the bilevel duct is at 44 degrees.
I used one of those single...
Looking online search, also in the forum for the proper airgap when installing the AC clutch.
Most of what I’m seeing seems to be 0.020 to about 0.035 or some such.
Seems about 0.025 should be about right.
Anyone have a better suggestion ?
Speak now because tomorrow it will be too late. 😹😹😹
2000 K3500, 6.5 turbo diesel.
The factory hose/pipe has been removed and it now has a 3/4” hose from the T-Stat cross over to the heater core.
Coming right off the heater core nipple, about four to five inches distance there is the exhaust down pipe.
Trying to clean some appearance of what it...
About ready to gain a mysterious prestone leak out the back of the enjun.
When I pulled the intake manifold this time there was a very small amount of prestone on one side at the back of the valley. Decided to replace the T-Stat cross over and rear passage cover gaskets.
T-Stat cross over off...
Guess there is no real answers to the best way of routing the PT GP harness to the right side cylinder head glow plugs.
The original harness was run under the intake manifold for the forward three, then down and to the right then plugging into each GP. The rear GP wire was run downwards behind...
I have done a massive search and I dont find the information.
Should a person apply anti seize to the threads of the new injectors before screwing them into their bores.
The book says nothing about this.
I do know that lubricated threads is supose to change the torque value when tightening...
