Backstory- 2004.5 HO Cummins owned since new, Smary Jr. level 1, 138,000 (I think) miles, basically a cream puff, no other engine/trans mods that I can recall offhand. A few years ago the AC stopped being cold. I read Tuesdak's threads and many many others around the internet and this forum...

So my AC has been slowly leaking over the past few years and I've refilled it a couple times only to have it happen again. Trouble is, we don't drive it much so I usually ignore it until springs rolls around. This year, I figured I'd try to figure it out. My buddy pulled a vacuum and refilled...

Howdy all- I have an Oliver 1655 tractor that uses Stanadyne pencil injectors #20498, in a Waukesha 283 diesel. Come to find out these injectors are very application specific, and nothing cross references. John Deere/Case pencils are much more common, but different and of course I had to buy...

A coworker's '05 has been to a reputable local shop for at four recharges over the past 2-3 years. They've dyed the system and checked for leaks, with nothing found. Any suggestions on possible *very* slow leak areas?

Friend of mine called me tonight. His truck developed a miss last night, '97, 215 hp, P7100, 340k miles. It came on suddenly and has not gone away. He checked the lines and is only getting a dribble out of #1 injector line while 2-6 have the strong pulse, so it's basically running on five...

Hello everyone... We're out exploring flyover America with my father in law's '06 and 5th wheel trailer.... everything is going fine, except the jake brake. It's an '06 auto w/ the OEM/mopar jake brake installed at the time of purchase (not factory). While on the road through Nevada I noticed...

EDIT: 2/26/15- Panasonic deck has been sold. Speakers still available. I recently removed my aftermarket stereo system that I installed back in 2006 or 2007. Even though I bought it in hopes I would rock out and for my aftermarket Sirius system, I grew older and found I most often listen to...

So long story short, I removed my aftermarket Panasonic deck and Polk speakers (they're for sale if anyone cares, and they're nice;)) and reinstalled the stock stuff. Crutchfield made installation a breeze since everything was plug and play, so the aftermarket stuff just unplugged and the stock...

So I have marshmallows growing on my terminals/cables. I was getting ready to replace the batteries already out of caution and noticed the goo. Yes, they're the original batteries, almost 7 years old. Seems to have appeared awful quick because I don't recall seeing it last time I opened the...

So I was cleaning the garage the other day, found lift pump #1 and remembered I'd kept it in order to cut it open and see what was going on. Well, here's the results (sorry old-school dial up guys) and forgive my lack of electrical motor term prowess: Dissected: Looking into the pump...

I really don't know too much about them. My idea of camping consists of throwing the quad in the back of the truck and rolling out to Nevada, one cooler for dry goods, one cooler for frosty cold beverages, and a cab full of guns. My wife's definition is well, a typical female's. I don't want a...

Hi all, After carrying around a spare factory lift pump for a couple years, I was finally forced to use it last year. Since then a part-time employee at my favorite gun shop who also doubles as a Mopar tech supplied me with an in-tank retrofit kit. So this Saturday was the install, and...

So I was at the local TSC and noticed their bulk company-branded oil is still CI-4. Does anyone know from which company they source their oil? BTW- it is available in 5 gallon containers if anyone is interested... . Thanks! :)

Anyone going to the BSOT show in Woodland, CA 6/21? (old crawlers, gas engines, etc.) My friends are into it big time. Bests, Holts, Caterpillars, etc... . People coming from across the globe!! Best Show on Tracks I just adopted an International TD-40 so I'm not cool... .

Please keep in mind I am an electronics knucklehead. I can run wires, hook things up, troubleshoot problems (like why won't my trailer lights work, etc), but I don't really understand principles of how it all works... so here goes... I just got my four Isspros (fuel press, transmission, boost, and...

Buddy of mine has an old '52 Kenworth he needs to get rid of. It's a runner and driver, but it's ugly with no paperwork. We're looking for a place to sell it (Craigslist hasn't worked out yet), maybe an antique truck forum? We'd rather see someone use it than cut it up for scrap... which is...

I'm purchasing my gauges soon. Pricing out the same gauges at Genos puts the DiPricols nearly $140 more than the Isspros (Boost/EGT/Fuel Pressure/transmission temp) ($361 Isspro vs. $500 DiPricol). I know the Dipricols use LED but why such a large difference? Should I expect better performance...

I'm looking at purchasing my gauges and I like the three gauge dash top mount the most. It keeps the gauges right in front of my eyes and I don't have to divert them far from the road. However, I have the Geno's coverking dash cover. I don't want to lose it. I've thought about just laying the...

From Spokane to Reno... Buddy of mine just bought three Jeep FC 170 DRWs in Spokane and will need to go get them. We're wondering if it would be cheaper to go get 'em ourselves or have 'em hauled. Google says it looks to be about 750-800 miles (one way). My conservative estimate says it...

Attention pilots and those employed as such... a few questions... Here's my situation... I'm looking to change careers. Not that I don't like my current job but in my neverending quest to find something I'd like to do, I've finally decided this is the route I'd like to go and it's time I get...
