A while back, sombody offered to help with the site software. I forget his username, but he had like a Chihuahua with a wig avatar. That you?

Hmmm so the old saying isn't always true......:)

nopicsLets see whatcha got. Pop that hood and get a nice shot of the engine too please...Lots of good pics of the truck

[thumbzup][thumbzup] very cool of both of them

With respect, I just did an advanced search for the 2 keywords "fuel leak" in thread titles only. I came up with 57 threads talking about fuel leaks in cucv's, deuces, 5 tons, and most other MV's that get talked about on here. I didn't read them all, but the ones I read said nothing about...

I am one of the few guys on here that doesn't blame ethanol instantly for everything that ever went wrong with anything. I like to try and get to the root of problems and not just fingerpoint at something because it is convenient. Still, I would avoid it in a deuce if for no other reason it has...

Ita a Vise-Grip locking wrench. The 3 models are 4LW, 7LW, and 10LW. Here is a link for one of them on Amazon.com ...

I know you said no vise grip, but these are designed for this. I have all 3 sizes, great tool

Well, that was an interesting video. I have never heard of that before that I can recall. It would be great to turn garbage and all kinds of crapoli into crude oil. Just think, a Prius could run about a year on a bald 53" Michelin tire :o I will keep watching for more about that, but it must be...

rosie, are you talking about making cellulostic ethanol? I THINK Heath was trying to make the point that the earth has no trouble making more oil then we could ever burn. But I am not sure. Could both of you elaborate a little?

Glad to hear the damage was as minimal as it was. With all that iron in the pan I thought it was toast. Anyway there are probably many good parts suppliers out there. Clark truck set me up with sleeves and rings last winter when I rebuilt my dumptruck engine.

The oil industry is also very heavily subsidized and has been for many decades longer as it is an older industry then ethanol. Probably all subsidies for both industries should be dropped. It would save alot of tax dollars, but you would pay it back at the pump. Oh well, time will tell what the...

Subscribed. My bet is that there will be collateral damage to the block or crank, rendering an engine that encounters that failure useless. Sucks to see that happen. You probably know that if you can find a good running takeout, that is most likely the most economical way to repair your truck...

This link is from the STA-BIL fuel stabilizers website that I posted a link to in a previous post. Why that shortcut was called "depreciated browser error" I don't know, but here is this other link...

I respect your opinion. Just wanted to show you an article about a guy who saw ethanol as the right chemical for the job. He was Henry Ford . Ethanol fuel: Journey to Forever

On vehicles that sit around and not get used often, I would just try STA-BIL fuel stabilizer as recommended by the manufacturer. Deprecated Browser Error There is some ethanol formulations if you so desire, but I just use the regular (and least expensive) one. I havent had a fuel system...

You do good work. Any chance you could get a few better quality shots? I would like to see a pic of that interior too with those seats done up like you got em.

Hmm, sorry OP, I never actually answered your question in my other post. I don't know if anyone has use DOT 5.1 yet, but if you want to use DOT 5.1 in your freshly and completely rebuilt brake system, go for it. Sound like a great choice to me. I like the bellows breather idea. If the system...

http://www.steelsoldiers.com/conversations/69120-dot-3-vs-dot-5-a.html Its all right here. You are rebuilding everything. You are in a position to choose ANY on the brake fluids mentioned and you know that they will all be safe and effective. It's your call. For me it's a no brainer (it...

Dot 3 or 5 ?? mixed? You may never know for sure but it very likely had dot 5 off the GL lot if that is where it came from. Ask the guy if he knows the difference and if he ever added fluid. If he says he went to walmart and got 2 quarts and blead the crap out of it, you can bet he threw in...
