Man did that snow come down heavy,got called out at eight yesterday morning and by ten we were pushing snow like this..
-
The next model runs coming up later today will tell the tale, they know its coming for sure but the track is in question yet,the forecasted snow amounts will surely change..
-
Could be a Bigun for the East Coast later this week!!
-
The county and towns around here would be screwed without private contractors, the ins for my dump truck doesn't cost me any more to plow snow,I have a 100 hrs so far this winter..
-
It will be cheaper for you to stay with the 24's on the front by the time you get done swapping out the spokes. -
Most likely they were using the 24's up front for weight reasons.Still lots of guys running 24 rubber on Long Island never heard anyone having trouble buying them,last time I was there Barnwell tires had plenty in stock..

Happened to my buddy last summer.

Forgot to update,after checking a few things and doing a pressure test and I don't know what else,I gave him the ok to pull the heads,he said both gaskets were a mess,what ever that means, any way he replaced both and all is well,ran ten hours plowing snow and she ran like a top,I can feel the difference,so nice and smooth but not sure if that due to new head gaskets or the valve adjustment or both

You just cant beat the simplicity ,reliability, performance, ease and low cost of maintenance of a camelback suspension.. -
Nice find,if I am not mistaken the radio console does not come with the kit and must be order separately.

What is a fuel over flow valve,never heard of it?
-
New water pump did me no justice except to lighten my wallet a couple hundred bucks, tomorrow it goes to my friends shop so he can play with it,at this point I'm pretty sure the heads have to come off but he wants to check a few things first starting with the air compressor ,time will tell!
-
Ok the hell with it,gonna swap out the water pump for a new one and see what happens,at 400,000 miles I guess it's due any way!
-
Dam I already re installed the pump but not completely the fan is still off, thinking maybe refilling with coolant and run it for a short time with out the belts just to see if it still gets air in the system, if I don't see air bubbles at the water manifold or radiator then I will replace the water pump.
-
Why would it cavitate , the impeller looked like new, there is no play and it turns nice and smooth.I know the water should be gushing through with out the thermostat in but it's not. Thanks for your help.
-
Running with out the thermostat I see very little water movement and now the air bubbles are going to the radiator, drained it again and took the water pump off and took that apart, looks fine, guess there is only one thing left and that's the head gasket, time to bring it to a real mechanic.
-
Ok thanks for come back,removing the thermostat now just to see if I get some water cmovement,if not water pump will be next,I cracked open the water lines from the compressor and no air bubbles at that point so do not think its air compressor, I'll get back later,thanks for help..
-
Try what I said,crack a plug in the water manifold or the bleeder on top of the thermostat housing,My engine is getting air bound and it don't stop.
-
If it were a liner or a head gasket wouldn't I get at least a residue of oil or fuel in the coolant. the coolant is perfect as is the oil.no smoke or smell or whit stains,so the air compressor could cause this say if it blew a gasket or o ring or something.
-
No water moving at all..
-
Still having a problem,some how air is getting into the cooling system, if I crack open a plug on the water manifold after the truck idles for a bit there is no water just air, once the air comes out than water but the air still keeps bubbling out,if not a head gasket where could it come from, air compressor, any one ever have this problem? Coolant is perfectly clean and no coolant in the oil..
