  1. Thank you for sharing Dave... It is a solid story. Im blessed to work for my city. My coverage is $20/month on the buy up plan. My wife is fully covered by it at $185.00 / pay check, every 2 weeks. So just under $400.00/ month
  2. Ues Paul, i didnt state correctly about alternators and generators.. 🍻
  3. Ok. Got it. I was thinking of gennys needing excitement to generate. I do know that alts are hooked directly to power.. hot all the time..
  4. Generators need power, alt. make power... Mech ??? Your losin it.. 🍻. Me too...
  5. Mark, my guess is he left the lines loosly in place to keep dust out while getting the manifold powder coated.
  6. This is "Odds and Ends". Not truck talk.. We talk about truck stuff in other groups... Go there... Or,,,, better yet,,,, start youre own topic here for folks that align with your views... Its an open forum... It is a fair game..
  7. Just as we learned how to work on these Big Mack Trucks,, people can learn how to program and work on robots... American jobs will be here for a long time.
  8. Bob,, So your saying that people have a job to do???
  9. Come on man..... Robots are here, but people need to be employed to manage it all. It will just mean that people need an education.. not unlike anything we have had to learn to be good at what we do...
  10. Uhhh. Bob ??? My wife ??? Oh wait, you only saw here on here in pictures... You're right...
  11. China is a power house... But our small country is in the top 3-5 consumers..
  12. I love these old pictures.. I have a bit more pride for the U.S.A. Our workers were always great !!
  13. I sure loves me some A.I. 🍻
  14. I wonder if the groove was for an E-Clip..
  15. Im not sure on the gap size for a Lipe clutch, but the newer ones are set to 1/2" between clutch brake and throughout bearing, and 1/8" between fork tips and throughout bearing. Sorry i dont know the metric numbers . I guess 13 mm and 3 mm...
  16. Set the clutch gaps first, then, if needed go to the arm.
  17. I dont know.... Gracey doesnt seem impressed. I bet she cant wait to get back in her R Model...
  18. Can you use a propane torch with care to heat the old gasket to soften it up.
  19. Bob.... I did not use sealer at this time. When i am sure that i will not remove the covers again, i may put a light coating on one side of the gasket, however, the rubber gaskets were good quality.
  20. You reckon he can use a temperature gun on the exh manifold to find the bad cylinder?
  21. Ok. So you suspect raw fuel as the source of the white smoke? You say its a '91 E-6... Shouldnt it be an E-7? And has the injection pump timing been changed or checked recently? When was valve lash checked last?
  22. Yep. Slow down through there. Gotta be sure you pay attention...😉
  23. "I". May have it in my book... I dont know how my phone changes my sperring...
  24. It should be P-1,P-2,P-3. But his is likely not an oversized bearing. O may have the journal measurements in my books.
