    Breakfast In Mt. Airy

    It's the second Saturday of every month at 10am. I guess the IHOP is the new place. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    The big trip and a new MV.

    I usually cruise at 45. That's where my engine sounds the happiest. Good luck.

    The big trip and a new MV.

    Might want to break loose the lug nuts before starting. Remember, the passenger side is right hand nuts and the drive side is left hand. Just remember to always pull toward the rear of the truck. Nothing like a road side flat change when someone has torqued the bejeezes out of them. Took a 3/4"...

    The big trip and a new MV.

    Does the fuel pump work? They will start and run without one but if you run out of fuel you will need to manually reprime the system. I found this out when I changed the filters on my deuce. I replaced the pump but I always keep a turkey baster for emergency's.

    The big trip and a new MV.

    If it doesn't have a boost gauge it might be worth it to install one before the return trip. If the fuel has been turned up it might be pretty easy to melt the motor going up a long steep grade. If you're in a hurry it would prob take all of 5 minutes to install one. Just for peace of mind.

    installing new fuel injector - question about tightening

    30 ftlbs would prob snap them off. Make sure you replace them since they're most likely stretched now.

    East Coast Snowmegedden 2016

    I went out sunday because I didn't want my first snow drive to be during the blizzard. It did good but absolutely useless without the fronts engaged. I did discover that it will do donuts pretty easily. Which is a lot like losing control of a house. No chains, no weight, and tires around 35 rear...

    Safe boost?

    No argument there.

    Safe boost?

    You can pick either the stuffed bear or the giant inflatable hammer.

    Safe boost?

    I believe that's what the military did. I think stock is 7 psi. At that boost you can pretty much run them as hard as you can without damage.

    Safe boost?

    I turned up the fuel on my d turbo ldt a while ago. I have a boost gauge installed but not egt monitor. I don't know what my max boost is since I don't let it go above 15 psi max and I don't let it go past 10 psi when pulling a long hill. So my question is what are my egts doing under these...

    Welcome from northern MD. Don't be too picky. Most will need some work. The rest will be asking way too much for a perfect condition mv.
