    Engine Prelube Info....

    To say such things... Many people here know how to cobble up stuff quite well. Why, just Wednesday night, I cobbled up an IEC61000 standard automatic power crossing generator for a guy at work that needed to run tests Thursday morning for a favorite customer. Took 6 hours, and will last many...

    Several people did that and it is good looking. Also a good place for a couple idiot lights for low oil or low air.

    installation of GRC-160 radio set in my truck

    Haney Electronics has an amplified 'LS-454' speaker that powers the radio from 12V via a standard cable and it is plenty loud. It runs on 12 volts though so you would need a 24-to-12V converter. I understand the AM-2060 does provide manual switching to control the antenna base's tuning unit, but...

    Boost & Pyro Gauge placement

    Is there room for the guage on the top right there? The defroster duct might be in the way.

    MO OK AR KS TX rally

    How is a Ferret on fuel? I have only looked at one, never been inside one or seen the engine, etc. Rolls Royce? In any case.. the tires DO need to be broken in.. :-P

    M35 Wheels

    They are some real nice looking wheels. No beadlocks, no slpit rims.. Big tires. Assuming they were balanced and used on the open road, the 395's themselves are not rated for much >50MPH. In the courses I'm taking on the 5-tons, which use essentially the same but larger diameter tire, the...

    Is this rack for radios?

    I sent the link to Steve Haney. He usually knows what these odd things are for. The far end, I'd guess a grc106 migth fit there, except the vary computer-ish looking holes on the far side plate indicate that something else for sure was the inhabitant..

    Headlight not working

    Does the high beam work? If not, can you check the ohms to ground of the ground wire -should be low, 0-2? What is the ohms from the like terminal on one lamp to the other, with the lamps disconnected? Otherwise, need the test light.. 17 is a lamp -high beam 18 is a lamp -regular beam 19 is...

    Shifting Transmission

    If you are not moving, the gears won't spin and engage easily. With the transmission in neutral, how hard is it if you let off the clutch for an instant to spin things up in neutral -then back on the clutch, and then try to put it in second while the gears are still spinning? It should slip...

    DEUCE spin on oil filters!!!!

    It's taken alot of consideration to come to this point, but salesmanship aside, products sell themselves. No salesman ever sold me something I did not want, much to their self-made frustration. People will pay the $300 for a tangible improvement, whether it focuses on faster pressure, finer...

    help please with diesel generator add-on advice

    RE: Re: enclosing the genset I have received no reply about the remote oil filter for the generator. I guess it's time to ping the Lombardini service center again. It won't be as big a deal as I thought to change it. Sitting under the truck, the cover plate is right there and easy to get to...

    Muffler Modification.

    well soon enough the enviros are going to demand we muffle the trucks to keep from frightening owls and dragons and whatever else is out there. I can attest to Sermis' muffler being very effective. I could hear the non-whistler turbo and also have a conversation easily.

    Boost and Pyro Info

    The guy at the pump shop told me that the wire has to be left the length it comes, and that is why it all comes with terminals attached. The TC probe has a short lead, then there is a choice of leads of different lengths that connect to the TC pigtail and go to the meter itself. He said...
