    bbbang, If you decide to do an engine swap, let me know, I'd be interested in the diesel engine if the price were right. I am in Kansas City.

    white line from fuel filter

    if it is the white/clear hose, that is the drain for the bleeder valve. Make sure the valve is closed. It just drains to atmosphere.

    breaking starter bolts

    So, this is the second time I have broken a starter bolt off in the block. I did some searching on the forum and found that there is a bracket that supports the front of the starter. I don't have this bracket and that is prolly what is causing the bolts to break. Anyone have a picture of the...

    Pics of filter after WVO

    That is correct. It happens the same way as the diesel. You just need two valves. One supply valve and one return... if you want, you can add a third valve for a controlled loop to keep the hot oil up front and less vacuum stress on the wvo filter

    rear clunking

    I'm getting a clunking in the rear when I lift off the throttle or coast down hill. I replaced my drive shaft u-joints and it is still happening. It happens at all speeds and the rate of clunk is hand in hand with the speed of the vehicle. clunk-clunk ... clunk-clunk ... clunk-clunk like...

    Pics of filter after WVO

    The only sure way to filter is with a centrifuge... http://www.simplecentrifuge.com I have one of these and have filtered about 1000 gallons and have had no issues. it is a bit of coin but you will get EVERYTHING out of the oil. At 1200 G's nothing escapes. Also, never run wvo thru that...

    strange bump sound

    When I brake and come to a stop, sometimes, when I accelerate, I get this bump, more of a bumm sound. It seems to be coming from the rear. I don't even know where/ how to start trouble shooting that. It is not a clunk or a thud... the only way I can describe it is a soft bumm and it doesn't...

    CDR Valve Super Sale

    vibration at 55mph in m1008

    The bands in the tires can be broken and can cause vibration and steering issues. Even if they have good tread and are not rotted they can break. Especially if they are old. Does it go away after you get past 50 or 60 mph?

    Ok, I found that about the resistor, but how do I hook it up? Currently it is not functioning.
