    Smell from heating WMO

    I seemed to have gotten a batch of engine oil so bad and so filled with water/antifreeze that I can't seem to do much about it with my centrifuge.I am just about ready to give the 30ish gallons that remain to the local oil place because it is that bad.However I would like to see if I can boil...

    Smokeless tuning

    I have a 94 2500 4x4 manual truck.I bought the truck turned up abit.rumor has it all the tuning was done while it was strapped to a dyno.It seems that way because the EGTS are always within reason,it has TONS of power,and it only smokes if you really try hard.I don't know the exact power numbers...

    Just bearings

    my friend just bought a 94 F350 turbodiesel(pre powersmoke) on my advice.The engine was making some noise that I just assumed was normal diesel noise.according the the previous owner the oil pressure and coolant temp gauge don't work.Im thinking the oil gauge is working because that motor has...

    I have an 89 Dodge cummins 4x4 with a 727.It works great and I am sure that if I ran a heated WMO tank and switched over when it was warm the truck would have no problems burning wmo.Although I did already break the injectors by single tanking it.However it has an automatic.I abhor automatics, I...
