    Oil cooling

    I have the stock 04 cooler on the block, it has been rebuilt. Aux is a FLD-DB30618 Fluidyne Oil Cooler -12 hose through out. I could go with a 2020 cooler but then my mocal plate will not fit. I have not seen of anyone making a sandwich plate for the 2020. I know James made an adapter for...

    Oil cooling

    Both, gauge says 210 cts has not gone above 220. I have the oil temp probe in the mocal plate right now. I have an analog gauge to put in engine oil cooler just to try out, and have a different probe for the cts as well. The temps were not jumping around they were increasing with power...

    Oil cooling

    250 constant on tune 3 up 290 momentary 85 OT. 230 on tune 2 up 280 momentary 85 OT. I am running synthetic but still bothers me as a DD. All of this is holding back when it gets hot. I have read your whole cooling post James so I know you have tried it all. I have read everything I can on...

    Oil cooling

    Well I did this cooler about 7 months ago and it has been great in the cooler months hauling my 39' fifth wheel. Now that it is starting to warm up I have had to go from my 3 tune down to 2. Don't get me wrong it still tows just fine, I just don't want to be that guy towing a 65 mph on the...

    How's everyone doing with this virus crap?

    Just my 2 cents, which really is not worth that. If I have emphysema, contract corvid19 and die with pneumonia what is my case of death? If I had heart disease, contract corvid19 die after a heart attack what is my cause of death. I have seen reports of both instances. I am not trying to...

    New thought on Onboard Welder

    You can try 1/8" 6010 they will handle the ampere much better. 6011s are meant for lower ampere than 6010. You can also try an 1/8" 7018. Run a quick root with a 6010 to blow out all the trash and then come back and cap it with the 7018. 7018s don't burn near as hot as 6010 or 6011(not as...

    Neat little Roxor diesel Jeep clones

    And that is why the lawsuit is still on going. https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/mark-phelan/2019/11/29/fca-jeep-mahindra-roxor-atv/4333127002/ 20k for something you might not be able to get parts for would scare me away. The grill is not vertical so I know it is not "just like a jeep"...

    Question: WiFi Extender for Shop

    Like Coker said, at that range cable will be cheaper, weather proof and future proof. I would go will Cat6a cable. It will have less cross talk which will allow for less bandwidth drop.

    LML Sta Bil Diesel Fuel stabilizer for long term storage

    It only took me 4 dead batteries. Since then I just play it safe and put a piece of wood under them. Will it happen every time? I just don't risk it anymore. I do know lead acid will loose charge over time just by sitting, but mine were on trickle charger. Overcharge can kill them as well...

    LML Sta Bil Diesel Fuel stabilizer for long term storage

    You didn't leave the batteries sitting on concrete did you? Even on a charger that will still kill them (that was an expensive lesson for me).

    PPEI Next On The Chopping Block???

    Reply from Senator Jones AL, Thank you for writing to share your thoughts regarding regulations on race cars. I'm pleased to share that I am a cosponsor of the Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports (RPM) Act of 2019 (S. 2602). The RPM Act would legalize the practice of converting an...

    Crash tested my ‘15...

    Can I say the ranch hand made it lessened the impact? No. Am I a fan of ranch hand? No. The more metal in front of you on impact usually means safer. I know we can get into crumple zones, but lets not. Factory bumper was still installed from looking at the pics. Can I say it helped, no...

    Help me further my debt!

    It looks like you have the 2007 classic. Mine is an 2004 and I will bet dollars to pennies if you look on the drivers side door it will say 9200 GVWR. That is total on the truck. I would not worry so much about total GVW of the trailer but more on the tongue weight on the truck. There are 3...

    Help me further my debt!

    I am in the processes of getting a 39' Wolf pack toy hauler and went with the Andersen Ultimate. I did that for weight concerns. I already have a B&W for my gooseneck trailer, going with their companion hitch would have added 130 lbs. Andersen's is 35 lbs! and attaches to the B&W. So you...

    Ac temperature cool not cold

    I am going through the same thing right now. I am assuming you went by the ambient temp chart for R134a? 250 on the high side is on the low side if it is 90 outside. I added a little more to mine the other day when it was 90 out and got it up to 40 low side and 275 high side. From my...
