    Why am I overheating and losing coolant?

    I had the oil tested. Showed possibility of coolant. I'm getting oil changed again today or tomorrow, I'm getting it tested again. Brand new water pump. No smoke anywhere, ever. And I'm saying a bottle a day. I think it's the head gasket, but if I have them tare it down that far, I might...

    Why am I overheating and losing coolant?

    Yes, I have a blow by exhaust, I'm going to be checking for any activity there. If it's coming out of the actual exhaust, is there a way to check that? And a cracked gasket would cause that to happen wouldn't it? Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk

    Why am I overheating and losing coolant?

    I have an International 4400 straight truck with a DT466 engine. For a while now, the truck keeps running hot, constantly hitting 210-215, even 220 if the climb is right. We are always 2 bottles low on coolant, and after refilling it still runs hot, and a bottle is gone in a day. I've been...

    headset (bluetooth)

    Hands down the Jawbone Era. Noise canceling is unbeatable, and it can do everything from gps audio through the headset, to answering more than one phone. The best part, unlike these truck stop headsets, is that it is an in ear headset, which seals off sound so you can hear better, and it is...

    Idle with no air line on compressor?

    Something I just thought about...don't these compressors have some kind of relief valve, or will they stop trying to push air once they meet a certain psi? Currently the compressor will just keep pumping, but is that any different than normal? Sent from my rooted DroidX running official Froyo...

    Idle with no air line on compressor?

    I need a new house from my compressor to my air tanks, problem is I can't get it till International opens tomorrow. He already has the hose off, and it was a pain. It's hot. Can I idle for a/c, whole basically having the air compressor just shoot the air straight out into the open air? Out...

    Symptoms of a possible soon to be blown Trani?

    Yep, don't know why I forgot to put that in my op. But anyway, I have a 2004 International 4400, with a dt466 motor, eaton fuller transmission 6 speed. That's what I know. And that engine is an International engine, not a Detroit. Some people don't know that I've found. Anyway, thanks...

    Symptoms of a possible soon to be blown Trani?

    Alright, so I'm driving down the road, no problems. Pull over for a few hours, idle so I don't melt inside the truck. My brother takes over driving, gets a little way down the road, all of a sudden we are hearing a high pitch squeal type sound coming from somewhere in the engine compartment...

    Inverter wire and breakers?

    Okay, these items look like they will be easier just to order from the internet and have them waiting on me when I take a few days off in a couple weeks. So tell me Mr. Turtle....what online retailer do you recommend for this? And just so I have this 100% correct, I'm going to order 2 175 amp...

    Inverter wire and breakers?

    Hey Turtle, what does this 175 amp fuse look like exactly? I went to autozone, I'm just going the anl route. But I'm not sure if it was right or not, so I held off. It was under 6 bucks for the fuse, and they had no holder. Does the fuse itself look like about 2" in diameter, with a hole in...

    Inverter wire and breakers?

    Alrighty, I have no problem running 4AWG. But where would I start looking for a 175 amp fuse, either class T or regular? I would like to do this out on the road, during down time. And the circuit breaker location? I think I'm going to do what I originally thought, and do the 4AWG. And I...

    Inverter wire and breakers?

    Hey people. I've been studying my inverter and how it is wired. Also been researching a bunch of things. I've concluded this thing has not been hooked up properly at all. Currently I think the wire they used was only 8AWG at the most, and I have an 80 amp inline fuse near the battery. And my...
