  1. 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.
  2. Bob,, So your saying that people have a job to do???
  3. 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...
  4. Uhhh. Bob ??? My wife ??? Oh wait, you only saw here on here in pictures... You're right...
  5. China is a power house... But our small country is in the top 3-5 consumers..
  6. I love these old pictures.. I have a bit more pride for the U.S.A. Our workers were always great !!
  7. I sure loves me some A.I. 🍻
  8. I wonder if the groove was for an E-Clip..
  9. 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...
  10. Set the clutch gaps first, then, if needed go to the arm.
  11. I dont know.... Gracey doesnt seem impressed. I bet she cant wait to get back in her R Model...
  12. Can you use a propane torch with care to heat the old gasket to soften it up.
  13. 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.
  14. You reckon he can use a temperature gun on the exh manifold to find the bad cylinder?
  15. 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?
  16. Yep. Slow down through there. Gotta be sure you pay attention...😉
  17. "I". May have it in my book... I dont know how my phone changes my sperring...
  18. 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.
  19. Adding to my last post.... If you were to get original/first gen E-Tech studs and nuts. The studs torque to 20 lbft, but be aware of the lower studs going in too far. Protrusion is 1 3/4".... The final torque on the nuts is 80 lbft... The updated nuts are torqued to 100 lbft.
  20. The nuts for the exh. manifold are not brass or copper, i have forgotten the grade if steel that they are. Those nuts torque to 100lbft.
  21. Yes sir.. i wont waste a friendship over a political difference as long as we are respectful and constructive with each other,,,, I respect passion in opinion.. Id still buy your dinner and a beer or 2 🍻
  22. Debating is great, disrespect is what my impression was.. I respect your opinion and wont disrespect you.. Just my take on things. Speaking only for myself..
  23. Oh hell. I have one if those... Get ready to get splashed.. put a hose with a brush on the end of it. Mine quit pumping after a bit. I used diesel instead of varsol.. good luck..
  24. Amen Mark... Your day isnt in your profile.. So Happy Birthday whenever it is this month...
