    Fuel

    Search out past threads From what I have read the answer is yes if you have a multi fuel engine. Just don't use gas. It will destroy your engine in the long run. Being that you are a new member, and this is your first post this has been covered many times. There are filters, cleaners...

    Rear Flood Light Installation

    Wow! How did you cut such perfect holes? The round ones I can understand but the tear drop ones are really impressive! The new oval LED tail-lights are nice, and make great marker lights. I was also wondering how to cut a perfect oval.

    Deuce Turn Signal Bulb replacment #?

    Question? Is it possible to install an inline ballast resistor to step down the voltage from 24V to 12V ??? Okay, how about two ballast resistors? I was just thinking there might be an inverter that would allow a 12V bulb to be used on a 24V system.

    Rear Flood Light Installation

    Can you show me how to install a relay to the switch? I get so confused. I read the display instructions but I still don't understand it. What I do understand is burning out my switch, blowing fuses, and I just burned out my alternator. I added four 55w lamps wired into my backup lights, and oops!

    head gasket

    up 2 U I always get an apposing view when I try to explain the torque stretch spec. Studs stretch too! I am from the old school. Did you know that when you install a set of studs, the thread that is inserted into the block should only be torqued to 20 Lbs. ??? That's old school too! It...

    head gasket

    You really should get yourself a new set of head bolts: I would go with studs. ARP makes the best! ARP-bolts.com | The Official Site of Automotive Racing Products, Inc. Head bolts have a built in stretch factor; once stretched, that's it. When you torque those bolts to spec, they stretch, and...

    Pressing Torque Rod Ends In/Out

    I agree Yup! You're Right! Silicone is much better where rubber is concerned. I'm in a New York State of Mind. I really need to alter my way of thinking.

    California Diesels | CARB Compliance

    Propane injection info. I do a lot of research. I want to add a propane injection unit to my diesel engine: I have six. The one I was reading about exsplained that a diesel engine only burns 75% of its fuel, and the other 25% is wasted. Using a propane injection unit will enable the engine...

    What grease do you use?

    Pressing Torque Rod Ends In/Out

    1) A don't believe a propane torch will not provide enough heat to hurt the metal parts. 2) If there is no taper to the pin, then they will be a bugger to install. I would apply some sort of rust protection to both side before the instillation. Moly grease is great if...

    Pressing Torque Rod Ends In/Out

    Tapered What he said! Bushings, and King Pins are made in a taper so you must press them OUT from the bottom up, or flip them up-side-down. Don't forget to apply some heat to the section before pressing. I like to shrink the pin by cooling it just a little before I try to press it. It...

    between body panels

    That's Great! I just love this answer!!! I have been using the polyurethane foam to fill voids. The foam deadens noise, vibrations, and insulates. But, for a wear tough connection spacer, that mud flap ideal beats them all! I have been cutting up those 55-gallon plastic drums (made of...

    M35A3 and Dexron III

    Criss/Cross - Q & A ??? I really don't have all the answers. Here is what I do know something about. Automatic transmissions are able to use SAE-30, and they work much better. I have been doing it since the 80s. It tends to run much cooler, and has no clutch slip at all. The SAE-30...

    UPDATE 2011 Kansas Steel Soldiers Rally

    I haven't been following this posting so I do not know where this happening will be, and I could use a few directions from the main highway. How far could it be from the Oklahoma border at Ark City?
