    Why are our injection pumps retarded?

    I used my new to me injection timing tool to set my injection pump to 8.5 degrees BTDC @ 2000 rpm. In the process of doing this I noticed that the injection pump retarded the timing as the the rpms were increased. I am new to diesels and this runs counter to what I am used to in gas motors where...

    Is this timer any good for our IDI's?

    Well I went and picked up the timer today and it's only missing the pickup for japanese vehicles. The gentleman I bought it from used to own his own repair shop until back problems made him retire and he no longer needed the timer. I was hoping to play with it tomorrow but it looks like we are...

    Gaulded Six ARP Studs

    Maybe different thread profiles? Sounds to me like you got bit by the old problem of having different thread profiles on the ARP studs than the thread profiles on the Ken's nuts. It is not uncommon for nuts, bolts, studs of the same diameter and thread count from different manufacturers to have...

And if you have even more time you should make your way north up Highway 14 to Edwards Air Force Base and check out their air museum and the NASA facilities. I used to...

    Driving in the snow...

    I wish we could get real studed snow tires here in California. Our illustrious leaders outlawed them back in the late 60's or early 70's because they claimed they were destroying the roads. In other words they put their hairbrained ideals ahead of the common citizen's lives, as always. Jim

And later on when you have the money for the thermostat controls just wire it in series to the switch and then connect it to control the relays. That...

    Air clean lid modification?

    Soup Bowl and bottom resictor It is my understanding that depending on the EPA requirements at the time of manufacture some of the air cleaners came with the soup bowl in the top of the air cleaner and the bottom had a larger diameter and the other combination that was mostly in the vans was no...
