    Blown engine. Yeah it was fun, but time to move on.

    This morning while hauling a load of blocked firewood home, my big, ugly, beautiful truck went out with a bang and a 4 inch hole in the lower front end of the block. This is hard to swallow with as much as I, like so many of us have, have put into my truck both in time and ideas, but I am going...

    Motor Carrier Inforcement in Michigan

    So let us see take a look at these past two weeks. A Ludington judge throws out a drunk driving charge because there was a discrepancy in the two blood alcohol tests a .29 and a .30. Also a 21 year old convicted last may of a dui pays our states new "bribe for a clean license" in April and then...

    I am now an OIL BURNER!!!

    I personally filter my oil a little more intensively. I first let it cycle through a 10 or less micron filter for enough time to let the entire volume of oil have several passes through this filter to give it a near absolute 10 micron filter rating. A single pass will only give you nominal 10...

    spin on inline oil filter guys: where did you find one?

    Tractor Supply is a good resource for this. I got my setup there. They have both spin-on can and bowl filter housings ($30 for housing and filter). They also have small and large waterblock cans, standard cans, waterblock bowl elements, and standard bowl elements (all are 10 micron rated fuel...

    Jumping a 24 volt with a 12 volt

    Yes, by hooking cables to one battery whether it is to the individual terminals or any of the other ways to isolate the circuit to one battery, you end up with your jumper circuit registering as a 12 volt circuit (12-14volts on volt meter) with your electrical on the 24 volt system intact. No...

    Filtering wmo with 2 x oil filters

    I see you have zinga so this should be easy for you to get; my 3 micron is an AE-3, i believe, it is the generic that I get from the hydraulic shop where I order them. They use zinga as a rule, yet the 3 comes only to them as the generic. As for pictures, I do not and it is not a thing of...

    Filtering wmo with 2 x oil filters

    What I have found works best for me is to store my oil in 55 gallon drums and when ready to make fuel I use a barrel pump to transfer into an open top container (larger the better for ease of time) where I then add any additional elements depending on current temperature. I use a submersible...

    Need advise asap

    Hope the trip goes well sweetie. Yes, there was a lot of question answering/researching that I did before buying my deuce, but you know the vast majority of you have come off as complete jerks and wow did that do wonders in making Hannah, and who knows who else, feel welcome or encourage her in...

    Driving ?

    If you have the funds, space and will use a deuce, get one. It will take a bit to get used to to drive with the manual steering on a 13,000 pound vehicle, but shifting is so simple. The deuces have a tranny much the same as a my semi. These are synchronized and you just match your engine rpm to...
