    Radiator Screen Ideas and Solutions

    You can get that spray at HD or Lowes. It used to be near where they sell the AC covers for Winter. It works OK and used to use it when I first got this truck 10ish years ago. I stopped using it when I started to take the cooling stack apart. It should work better on your screen as you can use...

    Radiator Screen Ideas and Solutions

    I don't know how I missed the pic. I've been watching this, cause if you don't have cooling issues, I'm doing this. I don't know this would fly in WW's warm part of the world though. It looks nice and clean.

    6.5L TD Motorhome repair/repower

    You also don't want that tranny ,even if they figured out the issues. If it were my luck it would live till the day the warranty expired, then die. This is a good thing even though it sucks.

    Moth balls for wasp repellant?

    Wasp traps are sold that attract them with pheromones. I've had no luck with them. Yellow Jackets ans wasps seem to be attracted to me though, and I hate them. I'm not trying to be funny.

    UOA Sheet ?s

    I finally got a sample sent out where I didn't have leaks or some other reason to add new oil between changes. The verbal report sounds good, but I am hesitant to extend out to 6K intervals. This is my former construction truck and it is my DD. It occasionally gets a max load in bed. Maybe once...

    6.5L TD Motorhome repair/repower

    My post earlier was complementing the shop. They are hard to find, especially ones that allow input and allow the vehicle owner to throw in labor. When I was younger I had working relations with shops like that.

    6.5L TD Motorhome repair/repower

    Sounds like they are doing a good job working out the bugs. Thats a good thing. Everytime I pay for work like this, the shop cuts bait and steams away. I get stuck with the problems. All work, with few exceptions are done by me.

    Decent CHEAP laptop?

    It's probably just my my bad luck. It was the lack of tech support I got and the fact that they made a sales pitch for malware protection and couldn't figure out issue with laptop. My sister uses commercial version and they are reliable. I really like the Surface concept as well.

    Decent CHEAP laptop?

    My Lenovo was broken right out of the box as well. Their overseas tech people made it worse, and I too fixed it myself. I will never get another one. It gets PIA glitches like screen won't brighten and then I have to reload the utility driver again.

    A military rebuilt 6.5

    Thank you, I'm definately sleep deprived as I didn't consider starting with atmospheric pressure when reading post. Maybe Saturday I can get some sleep and get some brain function.

    A military rebuilt 6.5

    FellowTraveler, maybe I'm sleep deprived and not understanding, but can you explain post #660 about 2.0 pressure ratio/14/15 pounds of boost and actual boost pressure. Maybe explanation not necessary and I need sleep. Its the actual boost pressure thats throwing me off. I understand the fuel...

    Throttle surprise.

    The really scary surging(think depends) has always been a PMD in my truck. Slight surging and fishbite tends to be grounds. Thats my truck though. I keep two bumper installed PMD's to keep me going. Call me superstitous, but PMD's behave longer when there is another right next to it waiting to...

    REAR BRAKE UPGRADE AND FRONTS FOR 94 K3500 4X4 SRW??

    Thanks for the tip Will. I was just installing Bilstein shocks and the brake lines on 14 bolt look bad. Its time for redo on everything. I have to consider buying the whole rotor/wheel bearing assembly up front. I'm at 150k miles on the bearings, as I have no service records from PO. The 3500...
