Hi guys.
Living here in the NE, I have terrible salt/rust problem.
Seems the salt gets trapped inside the door panel, and the inside of mine isn't looking too good.
I have no power, just handcrank window.
Problem is, whatever the 2nd scissor attachment to the window must have let go...
Just replaced some old lights on the rig with some nice LED brake/turn/marker units from Harbor Freight.
Everything works great, however the flasher goes fast as if I have a bulb out, even though all lights are working.
I assume its because the LED doesn't draw the same voltage as the old...
Whats going on here.
I'll be driving and it will go down before it goes up sometimes, and sometimes drops down and then recovers.
Other times it remains perfect.
OPS?!??! Grounds???
FWIW I have Leroys extension hose. Perhaps I should do grounds, and or check with manual gauge.
Could any...
A friend of mine called me asking me about a customers Duramax.
Here's what I have- which isn't ideal, I know.
02 Duramax 6.6, around 100,000 miles
It recently had a 'sensor' replaced costing around 700 dollars, and found out there injectors underwarranty that could have been replaced...
I obtained a replacement dually rim. Had a tire put on it, and went to install it.
Now the HUB Hole is about 1/4 larger than my hub, leaving 1/8 space all the way around the hub.
Lugnuts line up perfect.
My other rims are tight around the HUB hole.
Is this no good? The rest of the...
I aquired a rim and most of the holes are oblonged.
I think I read that these are hub centric instead of lugcentric ??
Any thoughts or just a big fat no-no?
I have recently just REALLY backed off my TM and I have way more power at low rpm with less boost.
In fact, Unless your calling for high fuel demands, boost will make you slower, not faster I think.
For my stock setup I have this thing so backed off climbing steep highway grades at 65 I'm...
I am in need of a replacement Wheel flap for pass side wheel well. Anyone know of part numbers and/or places to buy them? A must have before the salt blasting winter begins!
I need to fix my quick disconnect.
I'm going to buy a backup T-stat housing so I can have one on hand, when I make this repair to guarantee no down time.
If I find a single housing, can I use that? Or is there more parts than just the tstat housing involved in switching from singe to...
Should have created this thread years ago to track maintenance, and progress on the ol' girl.
Gave the girl some love today.
At 143,000 Miles, changed oil with mobil-1 10-40 HIgh Mileage Formula, and a grease-job.
Adjusted rear brakes up, replaced front pads with Napa Ultra-Premium Brake Pads...
Been so long since I took them off last, and all rusted together I forget.
Do I have to undo the 8 bolts and slide out the axle in order to remove the drum?
I hear a grinding noise type sound and want to take a PEEKABOO inside... Thanks...
PEEKABOO! Brain fart...
New Balancer didn't do shit.
Started up no noise.
Pulled out and took off and noise.
Stopped. Put it in Park, noise dissapeared. Foot on brake In gear, grinding came back.
Sometimes in park its there. SOmetimes its not. Its most always there in drive with foot on brake.
Thinking of...
Paranoia from an exhaust leak and I notice a wobble in the Harmonic Balancer so i'm swapping it out. (Hopefully I'm not just wishful thinking)
I can use any pulley installer to put the HB Back on?
The noise went away with high idle, sounded like it was coming from the turbo downpipe, but...
I guess our state started doing them on my year. I was previously exempt the last few times.
It was horrible hearing her scream like that with me in the other room, not even there to sooth her! 3 or 4 times, must have been WOT for 3-4 seconds a piece. ROAR! :eek:
I told the guy if any...
Well I jumped in on Bison's score, and I couldn't be happier! These are warranty take-off's. And as we all know, when PMD symptoms struck, the IP/PMD would get changed. This thing looks fantastic! I wasn't expecting it to look this good!:thumbsup: I may have it benched sometime, but if my IP in...
Just thinking about this... what would happen..
What would happen if you had a turbo installed so the engine's intake air stream would spin the turbine, and by spinning the turbo the other end would suck the exhaust out, causing negative pressure or a vacuum to suck out the exhaust gasses...
The bottom hole rotted out, so I re-inforced the others with SS fender washers in the inside, and rebent the bottom brace to eliminate it, and used it up top for the support. It looks MUCH MUCH better.
