    Yestiddy I drove The 'Ol One-Ton for the first time in months...felt great...I had been running it stationary every coupl'a days just to keep the batteries charged and the fuel system reasonably working... Planning on installing an IP, return hoses and injectors when it warms up in a couple of...

    Trying to identify manifold coolant sensor

    Thank you a bunch...that is better than a pin-up...much more to look at and admire... Can we ask you to post the other side of the engine...? Just to make it even...? I have this thing about uniformity...and the other side needs to be exhibited in all of it's glory...at least I think so....at...

    Turn signals only work sometimes…

    That reminds me of Tae Quon Do class...they had us rub our hands together vigorously 33 times...then do something with them.... I never thought of this idea...but next time I have a problem like this I will try it first... Then I will take my Power Probe and see if the cab is grounded to the...

    Wiring Questions C6 & Tcase

    I am not a fan of deleting stuff unless you want to work on it a lot...you will find out why it is there... Bypassing the neutral safety switch will learn ya all about running into and over stuff that you don't want to...and maybe run yourself into the back wall of the garage... Not running a...

    Project Stress Test

    If it were me and I had the time and money... ...I would build an engine and transaxle 'module' that could be welded in and then cut out of each car...have the engine behind the driver like a Pantera...have the cooling system in the 'module' and install the works in whatever car he can wrap...

    Project Stress Test

    This might be a bit to ask.... but I gotta bring it up because...maybe I am wrong...it seems that good parts are steadily dwindling for these engines and there are those of us and those that will come after us that will want and need heads and blocks , pistons and cranks, rods and cams that are...

    Max safe sustainable RPM

    I understand fully what you are saying...and I mostly agree on a lot of aspects of this... But... When you get on some well-travelled highways...it actually is safer to keep up the tempo in traffic...when people back up behind you...they get antsy and some ramp up the impatience and anger a...

    ISO a guy that could help me time my 93 non turbo.

    Well....maybe I was a little too hasty....if he fixes lawnmowers as good as he makes center consoles...well....I would not hesitate to encourage good 'ol down home cottage industrialism...the capitalism part just is a natural follower of the neccessity of keeping up the good work... I was just...

    E4OD High RPM Shift Between 1-2

    That is probably a 3 wire sensor...power, (B+) ground and signal return... If you have a DVOM I would check the circuitry into and out of the BARO sensor...check for good ground....check for good source voltage (B+)...and check for resistance on the wire from the sensor to the TCM. In addition...

    ISO a guy that could help me time my 93 non turbo.

    Right now I am using a small plastic tray that was a feed supplement fixture attached to a horse stall....setting in the hump behind the shifter...I have plans to attach the plastic frame from a broken bodum to my dash...but have not had time to brain out a fairly nice-looking bracket...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    That is one fine-looking piece of brass.... I didn't know that there was a casting and machining place in MD... Can you share a link on it...?

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Thank you for that...you are probably right...I had a steep rear gear and short tires... could probably math-out the driveshaft rpm and be astounded...the poor thing was probably flexing...come to think of it... This is why I am here...the brain trust here is phenomenal...
