    motor opinions

    Have you done any mods to the 6.0L and what problems have you had? Anything in addition to the egr cooler and head gaskets? To roughly quote Smokey Yunik, "Horsepower sells engines, torque wins races". I'd be watching the torque more than the hp. I've talked to a few tow truck operators that...

    Information

    Check your user manual in the dock for the specifications, then look online. I tried getting the manual from Rand but gave up when I had to dl the dock in order to read the manual. That to me is just stupid. I guess they haven't discovered pdf's yet. Not knowing exactly what is needed I came...

    Suggestions regarding a cargo van !!!

    The more questions you ask the more reasons you will have in order to abandon the idea of starting on a shoe string budget. Read up on experiences others have had and what the costs have been, not only for the repairs but the lost revenue while being repaired. Especially check out TJP's ongoing...

    Pretty much know the answer

    Last time I had an 8-5 job, I hated going to work, getting up in the morning to fight the traffic, dealing with the idiots on the phone at work, worrying about crazy deadlines, the clients are right no matter what - your the idiot even though you've been in the field 35 years and they just got...

    Why policemen lose some foot races

    It's nice to be young and agile. If I'd try that gravity would reach up and snag my azz. I wish the video was longer, be nice to know what happens to the last guy... This is what happens when you've been on the farm too long... http://biertijd.com/mediaplayer/?itemid=22508

    Something for Newbies to Think about / TJP's Trials

    With TJP being down for over 10 weeks now I'm wondering how long it is going to be before he goes postal. Also that dealership should be nominated for a "Real Men of Genius" commercial...

    Iran Announces Test-Firing of New Qiam Missile

    After reading this article on EMP: Electromagnetic pulse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I understand your position better. Seems like the timing for an attack is at hand, especially if they wanted to take advantage of our current weakness. They're foolish enough to attack, I'm just...

    Iran Announces Test-Firing of New Qiam Missile

    We're already toast, we just don't know it yet. They don't have to do anything, we're destroying ourselves from within. And if that was to happen our response would be what? More committee meetings on the hill? Anyone up there (non military) have the stones to light a few of the big ones off...

    Iran Announces Test-Firing of New Qiam Missile

    Launches are nice to watch, no matter who is launching them. Going up is nice news, coming down is the important part. Just what is the accuracy of this thing? Not a word on that from what has been released. It's one thing to lob some tin in the air, it's very impressive to smack a melon...

    How Much?

    Don't know a thing about them but having easy access to the manual and parts is a plus for me. Somebody was thinking when they built their site. Which model are you looking at?

    Help!!

    Assuming it is a Bendix TU FLO 550 compressor, check out the troubleshooting section in the link. Specifically page 23. The whole pdf is an interesting read if you enjoy manuals and doing the work yourself. http://www.bendixvrc.com/itemDisplay.asp?documentID=5114

    Help!!

    Another thought, how much oil is in the air tank? Enough to almost equal the gallon lost every 600 miles? If not, then where's it going? The drain may not be fully plugged, might only be restricted some how causing the compressor to slowly overfill and pump out the higher level once it gets up...

    Help!!

    Keep in mind I have no idea what I'm talking about, but on another forum that deals with that engine it is stated that the compressor drains oil from the bottom of its case. Going out on a limb here, but if the oil drain was plugged wouldn't the compressor fill with oil, then possibly pumping...

    OVM, I was just there, again. Had to help my son try and start his car - which didn't. We pushed it next to the Express-1 ST that is there also. Went back home to get the truck to tow it home & the boss said it is time to eat. I guess you can tell who wears the pants in this family!!!! I'll stop...

    Air Tabs

    I did some searching for double sided tapes for those that are interested and came across this tape for the tabs. It is expensive though - @$27 per roll .5" x 10 yds.
