    Cargomax

    If anyone is interested, I will likely be posting my Cargomax for sale within the next couple of weeks. I'll post it here in the EO classifieds. I am in the process of getting hired to haul crude oil in TX. Once housing has been arranged, I won't have any need for the van. Until then, it's...

    Tips and advice for maintaining a 2007 or newer Sprinter.

    Ok, so I've been beatin up on Sprinters a bit lately. I do not own one, but I do think they are great vans, they are just expensive to work on. I also know that there are ways to save money on some of these repairs. So, hopefully, some of the guys with '07 and newer sprinters will chime in and...

    Code reader for gas engines.

    Bob Wolf's thread prompted me to start this one and make it a seperate thread for gas engines. What is the best code reader for the gas engines? Will most of them do the same thing? Would a code reader (scan tool?) Enable me to clear codes?

    Best Starting battery for a gm van.

    I've searched the old threads, but most of the battery questions seem to be for trucks. So... I need to replace the factory installed starting battery on my CargoMax. I've killed it at least a half dozen times now and it's just not got much left in it. Now that I have an auxillary battery, I...

    Battery Help

    As of right now, this is not an issue, but at some point it will be. My generator is supposed to charge the auxillary battery that I have connected to it with "a small charge intended to replace the power used while starting the generator". Yeah, that's the best description I could find on it...

    4 skid loads

    Ok, I'm going to finish out the CargoMax bulkhead this weekend. The way I have it setup now, I'll be able to have 12' 6" for freight when I need 3 skids. I could also set this up in such a way that I would have app. 165" of space when needed. With that, I could carry 4 - 40" x 48" standard skids...

    Honda 2000i generator fuel connection

    I need to know if I can run a Honda 2000i generator off of the vans fuel supply. Has anyone done this? If you haven't, do you know whether or not it could be done? If I could eliminate the need for an extra fuel can, I could possibly find a suitable mounting location for the generator on the...

    Electric fan conversion

    Has anyone tried an electric fan kit? I searched for it but didn't find anything. I had a buddy that did this to Toyota p/u he had. He claimed some mpg improvement, but I don't remember how much. I think he had to manually turn his fan on and off with a toggle switch, but I'm sure you could...

    Hyper Grounding

    I saw this in an old thread, thought I would ask about it in a new thread. Can someone explain what all is involved? What would it take to do a standard GM van?

    lift axle controls

    Hello everyone. For those of you who have a lift axle (tag or pusher), where do you have your controls? I've been told that the pressure regulator could not be within reach of the driver. I've also been told that the raise/lower switch couldn't be within reach of the driver. I realize that it...
