    All I can point out is that my truck usually idles around 270* when first started. When I come home after a drive it’s usually 340* coming down the driveway at a few MPH’s. I then let idle to under 300* to cool down before I shut down. I run a custom mix of wmo and I know for sure it raises...

    To sum it up, that’s pretty close how it went for me also. I thought I even read “Veteran Owned”, which drew me in initially; shame. Sorry you had to deal with it also! Yep, other vendors have been amazing to work with.

    Thanks! Yes I do. I just hooked up a water cooler to the tig machine last week; what a difference being able to have longer beads/duty cycles for thicker material. Lately it’s been mostly aluminum stuff, but I had some stainless tube and angle to weld up today. If it works; it works!!!

    Unfortunately I was glued to the tig welder at work all day, so I only managed to “clean” up the outside from spilled fluid. I may venture out to the garage here in a bit; but it’s cold out haha *here’s some stainless scrap I practiced/set up my machine on before a customers project. Two...

    @banditt1979 Sorry to go back a page or two, but when you rebuilt your master cylinder, did you hone it out? Or just a “basic” parts swap rebuild? Any tips or advice? I gotta pull mine out tonight as it’s leaking behind the boot. I already have a rebuild kit at the house.

    I had the same brand saved haha, the one I found is a little less “powerful” if I understand correctly…

    Yes, my order took FOREVER to get shipped, same thing, it sat “processing”. I think mine was close to 10 days, and then like 2-3 in shipping. And guess what, it’s in Ohio just like us!!! It was my FIRST order with them; and also my LAST!

    i know some on here are against it, but I don’t mind burning waste. Here is my current recipe… 60% waste oil 30% diesel 10% gas Mix and then filter to 1 micron. Dump in tank and enjoy!

    My local branch did NOT even question the short VIN. Although mine already had an Ohio title and didn’t need an inspection.

    Interesting. I just registered, and plated mine a few weeks ago! I’m up by Cleveland. Although my title is labeled generic as a Jeep TK(truck). They never asked a single question other than if I was restoring it since it’s a “1969”. Never asked about size, type or vehicle weight . I put...
