    I replaced the starter today, thank you NAPA!

    our company discount knocks the price right into the reasonable range, the trick is to have an account or find someone that will let you use their account.... or flirt with one of the older (50+) ladies working there, works for me every time.

    NOOOOO!!!

    small amount of side to side play is normal, as long as there is not any end to end play.

    NOOOOO!!!

    good hell, hard to get farther away and still be in Oregon! as far as the engine, I was going to put it together for mine, but as I still haven't received the title for mine and therefore have no registration, I really can't justify doing much to it, better to send the engine off to someone...

    Anyone in the boise, ID area?

    yeah I've got room, but I'm a little ways from boise, Emmett is more like it.

    Refrigerant capacity?

    have you read the whole thread? I'm the one that brought it up in this thread. as was pointed out some people swear by it, some think it's the anti-christ. I'm not saying either but I haven't had a problem in any of the things I run it in. I haven't and don't plan on taking my rigs to a shop...

    Who else is looking for a DT360?

    power efficiency durability and reliability SUCK compared to their big engines or Cummins and IH equivalent engines, that said I didn't have any problems with the 3126 in my service truck until about 7000 hours of operation. at that point the valves all dropped at almost the same moment...

    Refrigerant capacity?

    I hadn't seen anything since I've been on this forum so I thought I'd throw it out there, just trying to be helpful, and despite what you say (I don't have a refrigeration license) I'll keep doing ALL the work on my A/C and I'll keep using this stuff, $15 in freeze12 got the air working in my...

    Scout down, NOT GOOD!

    Refrigerant capacity?

    clicky anybody else ever run this stuff? I've had great luck with it in our old tractors and combines, a lot cheaper than R12 ($100 / lb isn't really far off on that stuff) as I get it for around $8 / lb. and you don't have to have a license for it. designed to be used in an R12 system with...

    PAG AC Oil Questions

    like SparkandFire said, put the system together and pull a vacuum on it, close the valve and shut off the pump, leave it for an hour or two and come back and check, you'll know if it's a leak pretty quick.

    I used to play "where are the valve covers"

    I work on diesel pickups almost everyday, high performance and not, drag racers to trailer pullers to everyday commuters and if I had $60,000 in the bank for a new rig that's what I'd go buy first thing in the morning. mainly because Ford didn't take any bailout money, but I also talked at some...

    I used to play "where are the valve covers"

    urea is NOT cow urine or any other urine, urine does contain a large amount of urea, but hell urine contains a lot of water too! that's like me saying that clear stuff coming out of your kitchen faucet is pig urine. urea is a nitrate, and a good oxidizer to boot, the stuff they are injecting...

    general mechanic question: what causes excessive camber?

    in my case sag isn't the word, it's more like collapse, I have about 3/4" from the axle to the bumpstop.

    cmon man, you know me, what do you think?

    Who else is looking for a DT360?

    apologies, and though I'd like to say I'd do it, I'm not sure I could make it from here to the dyno without playing with the fuel screw. I WILL say confidently that I'd take a DT360 over a Cummins, and my Cummins has been on the north side of 700 HP for the last 4 or 5 years.

    Cutting off the soup bowl

    I just grabbed my air hammer and the cupped chisel bit and carefully went around the outside of the restrictor plate. that was before blackdog and I started to collect IDI's in search of one with a good engine for his centurion and my f250. at this point there are more aircleaner assemblies...

    Delphi injectors

    saving a little money is great, but it sucks when you have to buy another set of injectors because the Ebay set doesn't run right, not saying that will happen, I'm just saying that buying Ebay stuff is a gamble, Russ's stuff isn't.

    Who else is looking for a DT360?

    IMHO they sound a bit better than the cummins, and I'm a cummins guy.

    Who else is looking for a DT360?

    yeah but I'll get a really good deal! hahaha, that's the only thing that has stopped me on the last couple that I've found, getting them here would kill me. well thats not totally true, I found one 20 miles from here.... for $3500.... hmmm.... pass.

    well scoot on down there, pull it out, and sell it to me for $500!

    only about tenfold, it's like having a 5.9 cummins except better.

    So what's the hot power combo?

    ok, they're on, I didn't realize that they weren't on in the first place, apologies.

    So what's the hot power combo?

    you mean the guy that owns your local BullyDog dealership? the guy that owns Bullydog itself is a fair distance from you. edit: I see where you posted he lives right near them, I grew up in that town and I don't recall them ever playing with the IDI's other than adding a propane injection...

    Who switched to electric fuel pump?

    anybody tried one of these? http://www.store.procompelectronics.com/index.php?target=products&product_id=37025 I've had one in my diesel bimmer for the last couple years, and the guys I bought it from had one they pumped used oil with for a couple years with no problem.
