Service costs are what they are; there are options out there much less than OEM that work similarly. DIY isn't too hard and transmission shops can do them much 'cheaper' than dealers, for what it's worth. At any rate the ZF8 has been AMAZING in my PW. If the slushbox behind the diesels does...

My Power Wagon has all the gucci crap in it but the oil burners are so old the interior may just self destruct with a hard door slam at this point.

Our '95 (see signature) was doing that a couple years ago, had some gunk in the fuel return check valve at the filter housing. Cleaned it up and it's been fine ever since.

Depressing destruction of diesels delights, discouraging demand of dependable Dodges.

Gremlins. They’re out and about now that fall/winter is upon us.

Check the throttle linkage/cable for something bent or interfering.

The LF16035 is rated 100% efficiency @ 30µ and 99% @ 20µ via the Stratapore media.

We have been seeing more and more of this on our crummys and other fleet rigs, along with many other weird electrical gremlins, as indicative of a TIPM failure.

There used to be a mega thread around here called “Great Smoke Stories” All about smoking out other people and places. I channeled my inner Nostradamus and mentioned how it was not cool and that someday, they’d pay for it. The collective did not reply with rainbows and cupcakes. No sir I...

Anything that will overfuel it will blow a ton of smoke. Wasted power, wasted money, and the local Karen chapter will probably follow you home to eat your face off but I'm not an expert on Canadian law.

The big wire rope from the tractor to that crane didn’t help either.

List it on bring a trailer dot com too. People are paying mad money on there for diesel trucks with lower miles. GLWS same color as my '95, beautiful rig. Wish you the best on the health front also.

Welcome aboard. Ah, the infamous 2nd Gen wheel hop while spinning the tires. Lots of info over the years on it, seems that the pinion angle relative to the geometry of the stock rear suspension contributes heavily to it, and it really doesn't go away without installation of aftermarket...

Seems personal preference to ride quality and driveability empty or under load varies from person to person. One person may white knuckle a truck down the road while someone else drives the same truck with one hand, elbow resting on the door, coffee cup in the other. One person may hate how a...

34-36 highway? Holy crap, that's in my Mercedes diesel sedan territory! Now you've got me pondering another toy lol

I could be wrong, probably am wrong, and guarantee either way someone will tell me I'm wrong. That said, I lived full time (spring summer fall winter) in a RV off and on for about 5 years as a tramp powerline worker. Mostly in parks, but sometimes in makeshift parks that were set up in open...

Every bit of it. Roughly 17.5 lbs for the powerhead and another 4-5 for the 30" bar and chain. Plus fuel and bar oil.....

...arm as you yank back towards you on the rope. Wear a glove and expect it to yard out of your fingers at least once. The big saw at the bottom I *think* is an older 395XP, based on the shape of the tall air cleaner tower. Lots of XP saws have that "tower of power" but the position of the...

Clogged screens can happen from too much oil mix, or the incorrect type of oil mix. Oil designed for 'multi-use' or water cooled engines isn't optimum for running in air cooled equipment. Some are better at it than others, though.

Techniques abound; Started running a Stihl 009 around 9-10 years old. Stihl was all my dad would purchase for the business. I have a couple Huskys now, and a Jonsered, but never really got into the other brands. Nothing wrong with them, just always had great experiences with Stihl. Being...
