    Valair Performance Series Clutches

    Does that mean you're gonna give it a try? I'm interested to know if they are any good as well. Thing that concerns me the most is they started making clutches for big trucks. You don't disengage and engage the clutch on them as much as you do our trucks. I don't know if that's really...

    Quick redneck math tells me it'd be cheaper to just live in the shop :tounge

    Closet Gas hogs

    I'm not a tree hugger. I'd just rather see money stay in America (read: American farmers) than be shipped to OPEC. If someone would actually spend the time and money on research and development, E85 mileage will greatly improve. The down side is the vehicles will only be able to run on E85...

    Closet Gas hogs

    Why would soy based bio-diesel be higher? E-85 is currently made from corn.:dunno The biggest problem with E-85 is automakers produce vehicles to run on it just to say they offer alternative fuel vehicles. They won't actually utilize their resources to make it a viable option.

    Closet Gas hogs

    Instead of completely tearing it down, why hasn't anybody told the public how to make it work? The fuel needs a higher compression ratio to be fully utilized. Add a turbocharger to a vehicle running E85 and see what happens to the mileage.

    The Ultimate Dually (I'd buy it)

    There's someone around Findlay, Ohio (45 minutes south of Toledo) that has two Chebbys similar to that. One is an 80's standard cab and the other is a newer Crew cab I think. Both are six wheel drive.

    A few questions about my truck...99 f250

    If you haven't, be sure to check your fuses. The fuses are in the fuse panel under the hood. I don't have the list in front of me, but I had to add certain fuses to mine when I got it.

    Weird exhaust noise

    Only when cold? I bet it's the exhaust back pressure valve.

    Tractor pulling is a lot more fun than Monster Trucks.

    how to clean injector ?

    That's what I do. When I change the filter I refill the bowl with one can of seafoam. I dump a can in the tank on occasion.

    Smith and Wesson

    I have a chance to purchase a Smith and Wesson .45 cal semi auto pistol. It's a model number 0457 with a 3 3/4 inch barrel. I think it's listed for a pretty good price. Does anybody have an opinion on this gun?

    They walk among us

    It is cheaper to purchase 5 4-piece ($0.99 a piece) chicken McNuggets at McDonalds than it is to purchase 1 20-piece ($5.49).

    Kudos to one of Fords Designs

    That's the way our quad axle Macks are at work. I think the theory has something to do with the rotation or the tires going down the road. We use a 3/4" impact to loosen the lug nuts and a 1/2" to tighten them.

    Clutch Problems Please Help!

    Check the fluid reservoir for the clutch. I just had this same problem. My slave cylinder started leaking and left me with the exact same symptoms you are describing...except my pedal went to the floor and stayed there. I was able to start the truck in gear, drive 30 miles to work in the...

    Pros and cons of Manual VS Auto

    I hear this from a lot of people. Yes, the boost gauge goes to 0, but as soon as I hit the throttle it goes back up to 25:dunno

    Another SuperDuty Load...

    Where exactly does one find such axles? Are they any cheaper than say a set of tandem duals? Can you guess I have a project in the works???
  23. pdt1081

    I must be getting old......

    The reason for the higher price is the low production numbers. The manufacturers have to pay for the equipment and operators to make the tires somehow.
