    76 300d Rust repair thread(nice pics)

    Why would your registration bill get higher each year??? Mine gets lower & i'm only one state away from you. Can you explain this better? I dont understand about CARB and older diesels. Why wouldnt they be "grandfathered in"??? :dunno

    M-B IDI Diesel Engines - what was available through the years

    I need to take some pics of it & learn how to post them. Neither of the rear power windows appear to work, nor does the driver's door window. Passenger door window works, although very slowly. I did notice that the rear side windows do not want to "stay up" at the top where they'd contact the...

    M-B IDI Diesel Engines - what was available through the years

    300 CD eh? Just bought a 78 300 CD, needs a few (cough, cough) things done to it to be deemed reliable transportation, but hopefully it'll be worth it in the end. ;Sweet so far i've replaced the battery, shocks & struts, starter, all 4 tires, oil & filter, trans fluid & filter, air filter...

    Can I use WMO on my 2007 3500 Dodge diesel

    I have ;Sweet not at a very high percentage, but i have successfully ran as much as 5 gallons of it mixed in with 30 gallons of diesel #2. No ill effects to report other than exhaust obviously smells different, but maybe not as bad as you might be imagining. Engine seems quieter and smoother...

    Is WMO ok for Cat Bulldozer 1991

    my 2 cents I am thinking that 140 degrees farenheit isnt quite enough to let the centrifuge do what it does with optimal efficency. The hotter you get the oil, the better the centrifuge works. I've left my centrifuge on for hours at a time with room temp oil in it, and it does nearly...

    wmo = blue smoke ?

    explain please how is that even possible??? Since motor oil is a lubricant, how would adding motor oil to your fuel reduce its lubricity???? Obviously motor oil is a better lubricant than diesel fuel, or we'd be putting diesel fuel in our crankcase instead of oil. :dunno

    question about Megacab beds

    I have a Megacab and am in need of adding an additional fuel tank to extend my range for long trips. I was thinking seriously about adding an in-bed tank/toolbox combo to the truck, but not sure if I want to go with a transfer tank, or an auxiliary tank? What are the pro's and con's of each...

    WMO mixture for CR Dodge

    to reduce the smoke, just put in some plain old #2 diesel. Sounds like you are running way too high a WMO ratio. You might want to thin it down a little in the meantime. You are doing these fuel experiments on a very-expensive-to-repair 3rd Gen. Just so you know, LOL, you would be much better...

    WMO mixture for CR Dodge

    Take all the guesswork out of wondering about your mixture ratio. :yell:before you blow up your engine, LOL, please man, I strongly recommend that you buy yourself one of these and get your fuel in the correct parameters for your common rail cummins. It will be the best 36 dollars you ever...
