    Stihl 4 cycle Weed Eater

    I'm looking to buy a Stihl 4 cycle weed eater. The dealer says 30% more power and it just about weighs the same as a 2 cycle. It is supposed to be new technology because you still mix the oil with the gas. Does anybody have one or is anybody familiar with them? Many Thanks! :cool:

    Pellet Stove

    What are your thoughts on a pellet stove? I have a 6 year old house with a brick fireplace that has a 25 year old buck stove insert. This stove is dirty and not very economical. I have been diagnosed with 5 bad discs in my back, so that puts an end to cutting wood anyway. I have been looking...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Lost My Speedometer

    I was driving along and lost my speedometer, and the ABS and Break Lights came on. It is not the clockspring, because I still have the cruise control light and horn. I drove about 400 miles and now it's working again. Do you think it's the vehicle speed sensor? Many thanks!

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Which Box?

    A friend has a 98. 5 and wants to know which would be the best power box. He just wants to add more power, and wants a box that is easy to install. I remember reading something about the vanakan box that just plugs in without cutting any wires. What do you guys think? Many thanks!

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) #53 Block Question

    I have a number 53 on my block. I really do not tow or haul anything. Bought the truck because I wanted it, not because I needed it. What are the chances of my block failing if I do not tow or abuse the engine? I spoke with Cummins technical service and they are aware of the problem and they...

    Power Brakes

    After the truck sits anywhere from 3 hours to overnight, it seems to lose the power assist until I start the engine. Is it normal for the hydroboost to leak down? I have a 5 speed manual and park on a hill. I noticed I have no power brakes until the engine starts. Many thanks!:)

    5th Gear Noise?

    My truck just turned 25k miles with a 5 speed. I noticed the other day a slight noise in 5th gear only. Makes no difference if it is cold or hot. Has any one else noticed the same thing? Many thanks!
