    rottela t oil

    I have always run Delo 400 and my truck seems to like it. There may be something to the oil differences in the 7.3 because of the foaming but from a wear stand point changing the oil regularly is a lot more important than what oil you use.

    Question pre pump filter and move fuel pump back?

    I did the pre-pump mod but I have never believed that the fitting leaks. It does not have any innate design problem I can see and knowing diesels ability to seep through anything if it leaked the fitting would get dirty. I think the real problem is the stupid duckbill valve in the tank. Mine...

    Question ceramic tile experts

    If only part of the tiles are loose and it is tiles from a specific company I would be concerned that there is something preventing adhesion such as oil on the back. I would clean them very well before resetting and check the the others closely so you are not doing them in 6 months.

    Petition will you please help.

    I doubt they would care what someone from CA has to say. We have the same problem here they have fits about driving off trail and trail conditions but the loggers are up there driving Cats etc all over tearing it up and stacking trees on the track so you have to drive around. They are just...

    I need to vent...

    Well at least it will only cost him time and gaskets. We reused a cam once and kept the lifters in order and it still went flat in less than a month. You can get away with mixing the other part the. I have not done it but one of the engines we rebuilt had mix and match con rods.

    Ants

    Finding the house the the problem, they disappear into the tree and the post on the house. I have DE and borax but I have nowhere to sprinkle them. I used DE on some carpenter ants once, it worked great.

    Ants

    That comes with a little more collateral damage than I am willing to deal with. Besides, I sold all of my nuclear material to the Iranians. Okay it wasn't nuclear material it was Pez but don't tell them.

    Ants

    You can still get Diazinon, I have two cans of it and I ran a circle of it around the shed yesterday. The problem with these clothes line bas$%@ds is you can't use granules on the line or the vertical surfaces and I cannot find them anywhere else. The Terro at least sticks to the wall and they...

    Ants

    Anybody have any secrets for killing ants? I have a ton of the little black ones ( I think they are called pavement ants) getting into everything. They are walking across the clothes line and going into the house. I have put out Terro bait trays and put Terro on and around the clothes line...

    What do you pay per KWH

    No only do we not have nuke plants they poke a stick in your eye with the $.40 "Nuclear Decommissioning" charge. No 201-300% of baseline? It is a bargain - $.31304. I wnat to find the knuckle head that came up with that baseline figure and beat the crap out of him. I can't hit it in the...

    butt whippin' NEEDED

    Besides being a worthless brat he is a lard. Needs to spend some time digging a hole and burying it. Sounds like he does not have a father around to get him straight perhaps there is an uncle or something that can "work with him".

    Lower steering knuckles loose?

    I just replaced the hub bearings and steering ball joints. Also it was toed out so I had it aligned and now it is worse. The did have the tires up to 70psi in the rear which always makes it drive like crap. I notice my VelvetRide shackles have appeared to let go as well. The center is...

    Lower steering knuckles loose?

    My truck is wandering a bit so I had the kid turn the steering wheel back and forth and it appears that the lower steering knuckles are loose. The top bolt/nut part does not turn but all of the bottom part that is visible appears to be turning in the hole. Also, the on the left appears to have...

    Waiting for a shipment by UPS?

    This reminds me of an air conditioner I saw that said "Do not truck this side." Someone had replaced the "tr" with and "f". I wasn't tempted to @#$% any side.

    Flu is going around here on the left coast.

    We had some nasty colds here. Wife and son got stomach bugs as well. Our heads are still plugged up. Hopefully that is the end of it for us.

    Just got a $50,000 oil change

    Nice truck but I think I would leave my money in the bank for now as well. You will be able to hear it depreciating all the way in Iraq.

    CPS Recall

    I just got a recall letter from Ford for the CPS. Said they will replace it or reimburse you if you have already had it replaced. I replaced mine at 90k even though it was still working and keep the old one under the back seat for backup. I am hoping I can get a new one out of them for free.

    HUMAN CAUSED GLOBAL WARMING, THINK IT'S A FACT??

    Droughts and flooding, what are they smoking? I think they are full of $#it and have very little to no understanding of how the climate is really controlled.

    HUMAN CAUSED GLOBAL WARMING, THINK IT'S A FACT??

    Now that is just insensitive. Don't you realize the banks took advantage of them? They did not realize they would have to pay it back. I would love to see us to move to cleaner energy sources but not because of any of al gores nonsense. The Earth has its own control system to control the...

    4x4 working and not working

    Or just replace them they are cheap. Also, pull the hub off and make sure nothing is binding. Where they hard to lock when you engaged them manually? Make sure the seals on the hubs look good also.

    Long crank time to start

    I was having the same problem only the temps are not as low here. It was even taking awhile after being driven. Then it just went away. My suspicion is a bad load of fuel. I would try some fuel additive and new fuel and see how it does. Also, get it warmed up and then run it hard for a bit...

    Price of Ammo!!

    Reloading is fun on it own besides. Mindless tasks that require concentration are good for the soul now and then. I have a Hornady Lock N Load progressive and it can spit them out pretty quick. It is a great press, it is auto indexing so you can't forget to index and double charge. Also the...

    Shopping for new HDTV

    I have a Vizio 32" in the bedroom (only $500) and it has been fine. The remote sucks though and the sounds has gone flakey once. It is a lower-end unit so what can you expect? How are you guys liking the Samsung's? I leaning pretty hard towards the 5271 myself.
