Im glad to see someone using gloves when working with fluids. I catch a LOT of flack on my videos when I wear gloves. PPE is important with automotive fluids..
These questions always raise the same questions, which you must answer yourself...
1. Do you think more than $3100 in repairs will be needed (that they will cover?)
2. Are you a gambling man?
3. Will the company issuing the warranty be around at the end of year 3.
Personally, $1000/year is a...
Um. Okay. Well lets take this one step at a time....
1 Gallon? So, are you removing 25% of the motor oil, or adding 25% extra fluid? Because you hold about 4 gal of oil. A gallon is WAY too much.
Part two. Any Lucas Oil Stabilizer is too much. Its not good stuff. Reason number one is its...
Stop adding additives to your oil. Especially Lucas oil. That stuff is garbage in the oil system, its way to heavy and it foams in the HPOP. The only additives I would recommend are REV-X and Archoil. Nothing else in the oil. Fuel, do what you want, it probably wont hurt anything, but some are...
Make sure you are using Motorcraft filters. Aftermarket have been sub-par because of patent restrictions.
The dealer wont wash your frame, but no matter what you wont get rid of the smell. It will have to burn off. It will only take a few days.
Dont go aftermarket. Go OEM or International. Diesel site just released a kit with the international pump (which includes a coolant filter) and the necessary slight modifications already done to make it fit. I would get that if it were me. The Ford pumps seem to only last 150k (aftermarket...
I got word from my inside man that my application has been approved by Operations and has been sent to HR for processing. Word is they want the deal done by next week so I am inside the 30-day window and they wont have to treat me as a new hire (Orientation, training, etc etc...) and they can...
The company I got on with put me through orientation then let me go. It felt kinda personal...
Regardless, I plan to show up next week with uniform in hand and return it along with some other stuff and be professional just to show them they lost a good employee.
I heard from my old company. I...
I never grease my balls.
I just set a tongue on one and drive it on home. :sly
Seriously tho, I never apply grease. I was told, either always grease or never grease because dirty grease will mar the mating surfaces. Probably doesnt matter on something like this, but think if it were a small...
Yes, I got an offer last week. I should start tomorrow.
I'm still hoping to get another offer, and I would take that one over this one, but this one is still good, and most importantly, pays the bills.
I think a winch in my big item this year.
I'm not getting a WARN or anything. I just cant justify it. I have heard great things about.... get this... Harbor Freight winches. Everyone I have talked to with one says they are great. Slow... but reliable.
I am starting a new video series. The videos will address common trouble codes, how to diagnose, and fix them.
I dont plan to get every code, because some are not simple enough to fix with a quick video.
Starting off, we have P1280 - ICP Circuit Out of Range...
