    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...

    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...

    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 ***** or any other *****, ***** does contain a large amount of urea, but hell ***** contains a lot of water too! that's like me saying that clear stuff coming out of your kitchen faucet is pig *****. 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.
