I am working on a 12 DJC Onan 12KW generator and have severe wear on the gear drive for the injection pump. The camshaft gear that drives the pump is available and replaceable, but, the injection pump gear is unobtainium. I bought a parts set just for the injection pump, but, it's starting to...
How do you go about changing the timing set on a Gen V 454? The timing cover... It's 10 bolts. No bolts from the oil pan go into the timing cover like the older 454's.
Or is it 10 bolts and Drop The Oil Pan!? After all it's a 1 piece oil pan gasket that goes through the bottom of this timing...
Working on a buddy's 1993 K2500. Started just running bad one day while being a DD.
Just put a new fuel filter on and no change. Distributor was replaced in the past decade so any OEM issues with it would be less probable.
Stomp it from a light and it throws you back a second then looses power...
This is my buddy's pickup that I helped out the other year. Just put a new battery in it and I am told replacing the O2 sensor helped in the past. He has chased this a few years and now it's this bad. Aftermarket muffler is the only change over stock. (It may matter: it's NOT been over 45 MPH...
I have some questions about the sanity of the storm chaser. 🤪 💫 🤪 💫 The "self preservation" kind of questions.
I hope the kid's medical from a fractured back doesn't make him sell his new pickup. I am sure "New Chevy Pickup" was submitted to GM's advertising department for reimbursement as...

I would have picked a different engine myself. A more common engine that one could replace when it goes "BOOM!". Because I would...
So "Now What?" as I notice oil drips under the parents 2020 GMC Savana with the 6.0L V8 gas engine.
So I tracked it down to the oil filter leaking at it's engine gasket. Less than 1000 miles from the last GM Dealer oil change. (The dealer oil change required an appointment a week out.) Oil...
I ran across this "poor marketing" and was surprised there are other "not #2 Diesel" Diesel fuels out there. (These other flavors are available in California at the moment.) Mainly surprise that there are other Diesel fuels that are NOT Traditional FAME Biodiesel. As it is our #2 ULSD Diesel is...
Doesn't say what parts are holding production up. I guess it's more than oil filters 🤪

I was joking with my service advisor about a stupid simple oil change that I needed an appointment for. I joked "if you have the filter in stock for this 6.0L" ... He wasn't laughing and explained they just got in some 3.0L diesel oil filters they had been waiting a month for. I don't know if...

One of the few times a new vehicle had me consider calling the hook was a K&N air filter screwing up the engine. All of a sudden after eating lunch one day the engine would start and stall on a 2002 Chevy pickup with the 5.3L V8. I could rev it up and it would stay running, but, the second I...
Well if you have to get a van one may as well get a nice one. The main question is about dropping a roots type blower on GM's 6.0L V8 or other performance options. Not 100% clear how they maintain the GM powertrain warranty as claimed by Explorer Vans, but, keep in mind GM will paint the van in...
