    Ok. That's pretty sweet.

    That's pretty cool. Looks like this is their patent. https://patents.google.com/patent/US4192179A/en Piezoelectric pressure sensor reading each time pressurized fuel is sent through the fuel injection line.

    Oh yeahh...I forgot about that too until you mentioned it. My brother has the pickups. I think I would 'prefer' the lower shift speeds because it does feel like I'm shifting at a high RPM, but I don't know enough about the timing on these to know at what point I'm f'ing up the engine. From...

    For anyone looking for the most high tech stereo for their CUCV, feast your eyes. Waterproof, bluetooth speaker (and charger and flashlight). Cannot be stolen because I don’t leave it in the truck. What are others using? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I nominate @ezgn because I want to hear what his truck sounds like on each shift. :D

    ...but, if @cucvrus say's all of his trucks shift to second at 25 and 40 for 3rd (which is how mine shifts), and all I need to do to get that is push the VRV all the way forward without the need for a block tool...I'm good. How can you check the RPMs on these? I assume you'll need some sort of...

    I see. I thought the IP was just supposed to be aligned to the mark. How do I know if the timing is set correctly? Is this in the manual. Sadly, I only know about gasser timing using a timing light.

    I understand the IP timing mark and mine is aligned exactly to the mark, but why are you suggesting it? I thought you were saying that since I changed the fuel filter I needed to change something. Are you talking about shift points? I’m just trying to tie what I did (was doing) to your timing...

    I don’t know what you mean here… What procedure is this in the manuals? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Well in an effort to finally get around to dialing in my shift points, I drove the truck after making a slight adjustment then noticed diesel fuel on the driveway. I looked around and there it was pissing out of my fuel filter base. I tried a new filter and no go, so pulled that one out to...

    I went and got some 5/16 X 18 X 1, and 5/16 X 18 x 2.5 Hex Head bolts to finally bolt my camper top down. It's amazing how much banging went away while driving. [emoji16] Now the problem is I can hear all the seats squeaking, and doors rattling, and screws rolling around. So I probably need to...

    Fishing in the Florida Everglades this week. Caught over 6k fish. Kept, and cleaned over 1700. Oscars, Mayans, Talapia. All on cane poles and crickets. Over 400 lbs of fish gathered. 14 people using 5 boats. A lot of work but a great time with friends. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks. I can tell. I need to strip it back down once I'm ready to actually paint and touch it up a bit.
