    Polymerisation lube oil

    Oil sludge;My oil was changed every 7500Km, no liquid leaks, CVS works, Only reason I see might still be the piston rings blowby? due to worn engine. I never had to use the cold start advance lever before, then at a certain day I couldn't start my engine in a regular way anymore, and pulled...

    Another good reason to stay out of Calif.

    I don't know about Volvo, but I recently heard that Freightliner stopped EVERYTHING that has to do with E-trucks, R&D, Production, selling etc. I do think that for use like in above situation it would be a good alternative, while on the long haul they are worthless as far as I read. For Ship's...

    So, what would be the goal of all this CO2 lowering campaign worldwide? do they want to shove us into a new ICE age?

    Another good reason to stay out of Calif.

    In that future, I guess that we all need to go out and buy "wellies", or high rubber boots (how do you call them in the USA?) on the other hand, If drinking water becomes rare, and more and more expensive, why could Hydrogen not being made from sea water? then you make a bucket at your exhaust...

    Well, never been in california, but what I've seen from it (and actually the whole of USA and Canada) you have a fabulous nature and landscapes! And Extremists, in whatever fields are NEVER ok. Nah!, there is only one solution for it, for every person you dig a hole, big as a beercase, put the...

    Unknown electronics?

    yes, nothing special, little amber/brownish discolorisation, but other than that, nothing wrong. my truck has until now only a little over 10300 original miles.

    Unknown electronics?

    I've been quite busy under the hood lately, and discovered this piece of electronics, Passenger side, front of the engine, about at the foot of the injector pump. just at the end of a string of cables. Does anyone recognise this? or at what it serves?

    Dieseltiming explained?

    Ok, Thanks. I think now I need to go and buy a new timing light. Mine doesn't have the variable button.

    Dieseltiming explained?

    @ Franklin 2, they're cheap over there! @Clb, to whom you're writing? I don't know why those 20*? is that the point at which our engine needs to be injected?

    Dieseltiming explained?

    you mean with a button (and maybe a screen) to flash earlier or later?

    Dieseltiming explained?

    I'm thinking of buying one of these piëzo diesel timing adaptors, where you have the clamp which goes on the no:1 injector tube, and then has a little solid state box with a wire loop where to get the sensor of a stroboscope timing light. and so you can flash at the crank vibration damper to see...

    how much time before 7.3 is warm? outside temp now 10*C

    yep, about the wires, It was like this, but as you said, why do the both move the pointer???? you would think that one should light up the warning light, and the other move the pointer? I don't get that either.

    how much time before 7.3 is warm? outside temp now 10*C

    I don't think that it's possible to install them in opposite ports, they have a different size if I'm correct?
