If your trying to use the batts from the funvee to do anything other than start it. Try and re think what your goal is. Running your house-toys off batts with a solar cell are not going to be reliable with the 6tl/tn or even the group 31. All are made for starting and slow recharge. Not any...
But ah. Where the fu&$ is my sf97 !!!! Bought that Po- truck on sep 2. Arrived home on 2-1-22 , it’s now 6-10-22. Still no sf97. Really starting to get un happy. 😕🤬
I hate to say it but it sounds like a bad wrist pin bearing. A rod bearing would sound more at the bottom. Pull your oil filters and see if there’s some metal in there. If you don’t see anything in there. Drain the oil and check the magnets on the plugs.
I would spend a little more time under the truck with a grease gun looking for fittings in the near future. Might save you more time in the future using a hammer. 😉
Gauges , sending units are not really as accurate as we would hope. More of a guide , loose wires , bad grounds etc. years of shaking around will cause things to go out of calibration. I have watched mine just start bouncing all over on a flat pice of ground. Put in a different gauge , sending...
As the saga continues. Called GP to get an update. They said they had sent the sf97 to the corps to be signed on April 15th. Not back yet and they sent them a request to get a return date. No response from the corps yet. In 3 months and @ 11 days. It will be a year
I still haven’t got my SF97 either. , I do all my driving at O-dark 30. But I live in a fairly rural area. I thought I had huge suspension issues , at above 40 it felt like the wheels were going to fall off. Everything shook like I owed it money. A new set of csm tires and dumping those run...
I had a friend that had a V8 (gas) in an M-211. I think it was a 455 from some Cadillac , only had a few thousand Miles and had better top end but no low end tork. After checking the motor I found you could slide the crank about 3/8 of an inch in and out. the main “thrust” bearings were totally...
Don’t put “gas” in the truck !🤯 it won’t last. It’s designed for diesel fuel “but” can run on other types of fuel , that is in case of AN EMERGENCY ! It’s your truck. Do as it as you want. There are LOTS of posts here on using waste oil an such. Also DON’T use either when trying to start. You...
Gvmnt efficiency at its finest , how low on the IQ table are you when your drilling holes in fuel tanks ? I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that “person” isn’t long for this life. I’m just spitballing here but using an electric drill to make holes in fuel/gas tanks isn’t conducive to longevity. 🤔
You can replace all the broken /bent stuff , easy way to tell would be if nothing will align , door , hood etc. even now if looking at the passenger door , is the gap between the door and fender bigger ? Just shimming the crap out of everything will not fix the bent frame
