Arkansas is pretty cool about it. I have an antique plate on my '84; I never have to pay another yearly registration fee again. All I have to do is keep insurance on it. Technically I'm not supposed to drive it more than my "regular" vehicle, but there are no checks on it.
Thanks for the info. I'm really trying to get running on the cheap, so I'm trying to make this setup work with stuff I have on hand. I have a couple of GM saginaw PS pumps from my chevy days, and those will supply the pressure needed but can't be run dry without ruining them. They won't pull...
OK, strike three on the SBC pumped centrifuge. I stopped by the local hardware store and picked up a 4" diameter, 1/2" bore sheave (pulley) and mounted it on the SBC oil pump. I then connected it to my table saw motor via a belt. It ended up being about a 3:1 reduction in speed from motor...
I have one. That's how I know the flow was so high. I had the bypass about half closed when the SBC pump was making 100psi. The flow coming from the bypass was really impressive.
Yeah, I'm figuring that out. The SBC pump was delivering TONS of volume for that three minutes. I hooked up my table saw motor direct drive style to the SBC pump this afternoon and it tripped the overload almost immediately. I'll give this SBC pump more try; I'll get a big pulley/sheave to...
Smoked it after about three minutes. It worked fine for transferring oil from one drum to another, but not when I hooked it up to the 'fuge. It ran that SBC pump up to 100psi line pressure like a champ, though. Then RPMs dropped down and I smelled the stink and saw the smoke. Done... Good...
Well, you all just changed my mind for me. Now that the weather has warmed up, I'll just run it single tank for now. I'll cross that two-tank bridge if I ever start to have cold-related starting troubles. Thanks.
I tried to search and got 13000 results, so I thought it would be quicker just to ask again, even though this question may have been asked already.
About half the time I go out to start the truck, the following happens. Hot or cold, sitting for 15 minutes or 5 days. The starter will kick...
So, my plan is to run #2 diesel in the front tank and W85 in the rear tank. FSV is inop so I'm going with manual valves. I only plan to use the #2 for startup and shutdown. I would use a 3 way ball valve for changing the feed line from one tank to the other, but is there any reason I couldn't...
It's double the capacity of the normal rear tank, and it looks like it is twice as "thick" as the stock tank, so measure the "thickness" of your 19 gallon stock rear and double it?
I did a search but couldn't find an answer. I bought a set of "long" valve stem seals for my 6.9. On both the o'reilly and rockauto websites they had both long and short listings for the 6.9. When I received them in the mail, I looked at the back of the box and they have only a 7.3 listed...
I have a '84 6.9 that I think has bad valve stem seals. What is this CDR that you're all talking about, and how do I check it to see if it's bad? Thanks for helping a newbie.
I kinda doubt bias ply tires are high speed tires, given the info below. It comes from the Goodyear Europe website.
"Here is a list of rating indicators and their speed equivalents. Unmarked radial tires are allowed up to a speed of 110 km/h (68 mph). Bias ply tires are confined to 100 km/h...
