  1. So for a while now I have been a CDL trainer at work. I am currently working with 1 employee. He's doing good, so for fun I thought I would give him a Birdseye view of his slow maneuvers course. As you can see, I only use the Best tools for this illustration.
  2. So... many years ago i chased this issue. I could drive the truck fine around town at low RPM's. I would get on the highway and at about 1600 RPM's or around 22 + PSI of boost, the truck acted like I shut it off. It would dump boost. It was the new boost sensor. It was the wrong part number for that VIN. turns out there are a few of them and all of them have a different voltage range on its 5 volt circuit. The one in my case was 1.5 volts (if I remember correctly) different than the correct sensor. Its been about 17 years ago.. Maybe Heinze can figure out the part number, and Mackpro is great with these sensors and such..
  3. Ive been at the top in spring time and it was snowing. What an amazing place.
  4. Yes.. Has the boost sensor been replaced recently ?
  5. Those 2 guys really are the reason we are where we are today.. Really... they revived racial bias and hatred...
  6. Thats the sadness within.. todays youtube truck drivers are cluesless
  7. Its all around here. The local dirt haulers all sit on the floor and reach up to the roof to shift.. Im surprised that the stick doesnt shift for them when they let off the throttle.. at leatse in to nuetral..
  8. Luv it..
  9. After you put that shifter in, you can also remove the air bag from your seat..... You wont be needing it.. 🍻
  10. Well i got the van back together. The test drive was a success. I would post a video, but the engine runs so quite, you wouldnt here anything. Me thinks it had an intake leak as well as the coolant leak. The new vacuum lines didnt hurt either.. She got : intake gaskets Valve cover gaskets Thermostat Coolant sensors Vacuum lines Blasted and painted covers And a water pump The serp belt was in grsat shape. The radiator should have gone to get boiled out, but....
  11. Oh hell. Your here in the States. Safe travels Paul..
  12. Looks a bit like Northeast U.S.A. 🍻
  13. Oh hell, those bolens are tough.
  14. How does this work ?? The Iranian Gov. Has killed 3,300 protesters, and the ayatollah of Iran Blames Donald Trump. To quote an old friend.. "I know less and less everyday"
  15. One thing i do with my yota when im pulling my 12' trailer with weight on it ,is,, I will unlock my hubs, and if im heavy or on a hill, i will start in 1st and low 4 in the transfer case and shift the transfer case from low to high in 1st, then carry on as normal. Yota becomes a 6 spd at that time. Been doing it for years, no issues..
  16. I would love to see one of those yotas. I prefer trrucks that have shifters and levers and such.. I am not a fan of buttons for mechanical controls.. for example...i would love to own a 64 International Scout...
  17. The whole thing will cost $350. The labor i paid was only $30. At the shopshe was at. The calipers are close in price.. it is what it is... It is also my wifes truck, so,,,, no corner cutting..
  18. Just the one caliper that stuck.. I have all the other parts to finish the front brake job.. hoses, pads,a caliper,and rotors. Gonna make it new again
  19. Bob... its a Yota... only has 192,000 on it.. i just put valve cover gasket set, and Cat converter in it. Runs great. 2.7 L 4 banger, 5 spd, manual transfer case and hubs...
  20. I still have my 4WD that I bought in March of 2001..
  21. Yes Brocky,, a day later its gone.. unlike where we came from. Hell Hippy is knee deep in it now... up there in New Hampster..
  22. In my case, the engine was outside uncovered sitting in the B chassis for years... the injectors were stuck more than just a rusty oring, they were STUCK.
  23. Here is a breakfast meal that my wife found. It is made with a 10'' flour tortilla. I prep the ingredients that I want , scrammble 2 eggs in a bowl the way you like them, on the large burner, put a 10'' non-stick pan with a little butter. I used chicken fat. cook on the lowest setting. place the tortilla in the hot pan, add the goodies you want in it and spread them thinly over the tortilla, pour the egg mix evenly over it, season with herbs iff you want to, cover with a tall lid, I use my wok lid. 10 minutes like this, then add cheese and cover another 5 minutes, you can check egg doneness as you go. this took my a couple tries to get it right all the time. when your happy with egg doneness, slide it out of thepan on a cutting board, let cool 5 minutes. you can cut it like a pizza. I fold it in have and let it sitt a bit longer before cutting it to make sure it doesnt ooze out the sides, then I split it and destroy it. Brocky,, I dont know if gluten free tortillas are in the store, but if they are, this may be a good one for your son.. I make 2 of them on sunday and it turns in to 4 breakfast's to take to work.
  24. Talk about packed with dirt... the parts engine that i needed the heads from had mouse nests built to the top of the valve covers. I cant seem to find the pictures. The mouse urine had rusted the rocker assemblies to the point they were too pitted to use. Good luck...
  25. I just looked at your first post last summer.. Awesome seeing that tip turbine sittin on the trailer.. youve come quite a ways since then.. 🍻
