    Any Ideas of clutch inspection?

    This may sound weird or strange but I figure I would ask. I just wanted to inspect my clutch on my 818 to see if it is worn down or if it is just a pedal adjustment or whatever. Before anyone tells me to read the TM, I have. I have removed the 6 bolts and looked into the inspection cover but...

    I hate you GM

    sounds to me like you have a brake caliper piston that may be stuck or slightly cocked preventing you from resetting the piston back fully. Brakes can be frustrating at times, but this design, as simple as it is, is pretty foolproof with some exceptions. Usually, those exceptions are related...

    Solargizer's on 4 battery's. Which way is correct?

    This should work for 2 Solargizers. MtSnow's method will work when using just 1 Solargizer

    Solargizer's on 4 battery's. Which way is correct?

    When you get a chance, take a few pics of your battery layout and I'll see if I can figure out what is what and where to make your connects at

    Solargizer's on 4 battery's. Which way is correct?

    I just included the battery tray layout for reference, you'll have to decipher your battery layout to how it corresponds to it. The diagram is a general layout, not to be confused with how it actually is in the tray, since that can change when someone changes a battery(ies). Best idea I can...

    Solargizer's on 4 battery's. Which way is correct?

    I have 2 Solargizers as well but I am currently only running 2 batteries, so they are not connected. I made a small diagram, hope it helps. It may not be 100% correct, but it is the way I would connect my 2 Solargizers if I had 4 batteries. The Solargizer units have a positive and negative...

    SoCal 2016 Summer Rally Aug, 5-7 Big Bear California San Bernardino Mtns. camping

    JD I know this doesn't cover all of the trails but most are no more extreme than this vid. There is 1 turn that is kind of tight from what I remember, had to make it a 3 pointer in my 818 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dRjEiADGCg&list=PLw2F2v_f7-mXY3Vx9JC5I0BIbC4A0Gt1G&index=2

    Alternator Isolated ground 12 side?

    Maybe just buy a louder radio, that always drowns out those pesky whiny noises, lol

    Is this a symptom of a problem or the possible cause?

    Shouldn't be any washers at all. The starter bolts had a wide shoulder under the bolt head to act like a washer. I wouldn't add a washer to one since that will put a stress point on the starter housing and lessen the amount the starter bolts protrude into the block. Not by much but maybe just...

    WD40 paint refresh

    WD40 has no silicone in it, not the normal blue and yellow can. There is a silicone version, but the one that everyone knows by sight is a petroleum and mineral oil base. Now of course a paint and body person will tell you not to use any petroleum based solvents on paint, but most of the...

    WD40 paint refresh

    I used diesel on my 818, it last for a bit depending on how chalky the finish is. For me, it had already been repainted with brush on paint, probably not CARC, but who knows

    Is this a symptom of a problem or the possible cause?

    You are correct. That is what they call the Bendix gear of the starter. Like Ue413 is saying, when the starter solenoid is activated upon the turning of the ignition switch, it moves that bendix gear forward and it engages the flywheel. It then retracts once the ignition switch is let go and...

    I can bring some if nobody else is. Can we use the exhaust manifold to heat it up?

    Fake GM Water Pump?

    Like CUCVRUS stated we have had a world economy for much longer than you would think. I for one, would like to believe that the US makes a better product, but I know that would be just a fantasy, sad to say. I would like to see more jobs here in the US, but the powers that be in the corporate...
