    slober tube plumbed back into intake?

    can't speak to the deuce specificly on this one - but on other vehicles the only time i've had that much blow by is from failed rings or a burnt piston. might be time for a compression test of the cylinders to see if you have a bad one.

    slober tube plumbed back into intake?

    to plumb it back into the intake pre-turbo you would have to add a catch-can to seperate the oil from the gasses. then you would have to check it regularly to see when it needed to be drained.

    Solid vs. Zippered

    i would consider keeping a zipper boot in the "emergency repair parts bin" but otherwise would use the solid silicone ones.

    Why 2650rpm max?

    rod failure modes not from RPM happen on compression stroke: -pre-ignition or detonation causes rod bend or fracture -rod bearing failure resulting int he piston impacting the head - end result is failed piston and or rod Failure modes from high RPM happen at the transition from exhaust to...

    Hard top gunner cutout

    the 55 gallon drum mod is probably the best bet. take an opentop drum with a lit mounted to it and cut the top 1" off the drum. weld the ring to the hard top then remove the lid and cut out the hole in the roof. then pick from a variety of available drum lids. that way when you don't plan...

    Underdrive Pulleys?

    underdrive pulleys are really intended for engines that are pushing high rpm. the high rpm puts a much more excessive load on the components like the alternator and water pump. in the case of the water pump it can even cause cavitation which stops the coolant from flowing when it is most...

    Turn signal/flasher problem

    easiest test would be to swap modules with a known good one and see if it still happens.

    Turn signal/flasher problem

    overheating flasher module could do it but I think it would work temporarily until it got too hot.

    Mod of the day - electric wipers

    thanks for the tip - the variable ones are WAY too expensive (100$), but the high-low ones aren't bad. if I knew the resistance required i could just get a seperate switch for the on-off and a potentiometer for the speed control. should ony cost a couple dollars. EDIT--- I really am rusty...

    Mod of the day - electric wipers

    still have to get those detailed photos. need a little wiring help though as I'm rusty on my electronics. The wiper motor functions from 24v down to 12volt. I'd like to put in a variable resister knob to slow down the wipers when it isn't raining real hard. do I need to know the draw of...

    Where to place the jack or supports?

    not trying to be a smart*** but if you can't drive it anywhere then what does it need an oil change for? If you can drive it around on the farm for a bit that should take care of it, if you really have to jack it up then I would use 6 jack stands - 2 under each axle.

    Mod of the day - electric wipers

    I'll add some more detailed photos tomorrow, but for now here is an overall shot. I scavenged the wiper shaft from two bad air motors, combined it with a single 24v wiper motor with auto-stop. after testing the connections in the wiper motor i was able to run external wires rather than the...
