Can you get an old peugeot-citroen XUD 1.9 TD engine in the USA? Here in Europe, they are-were considered the best diesel engines for person cars from about 25 years ago to around 2000. A bit less strong than the VW Transporter engine (they range from 60 to 110 HP), but it gets a lot of jobs...

I know you have a lot of work trying to tweak the new setup and answer all problems, so you don't need extra work. Maybe this could help reduce the questions and help people adjust as well. What about a separate one-post sticky thread with "how to work with the new site". On that page, just...

So let's all become premium members. It's nice that you get to change your own rank as extra, but some very good things are done with the money. Even if you/we don't like all of the new changes, it still is necessary to stay updated and on top of these things. It can mean that some features go...

Nice balance of equipment to take care of all your needs. [thumbzup]

Funny. When I clicked the "read my latest post"link, it gave me a 404 error. Probably just a link disconnected. I agree totally with the statement itself although I would have loved to discuss politics with some members here. That said, the whole header stuff does take take a lot of space up...

It is, or used to be quite common that without doing coding tricks, one simple website never looks the same on all web browsers. That's why in the coding side, there often are tricks and tweaks to make a site look the same whatever the browser, browser version, screen size, or screen resolution...

First, h*ll of a job, compliments, don't envy you [thumbzup]. Off course a lot of people (me too) will always like the old version better for some time (and like this version better after your next upgrade). We're just tooooo old to easily accept change. - The "activity stream" and the...

Still going strong

For once the time difference is to my advantage. I can just browse happily through my Sunday morning and afternoon :jumpin: :jumpin:. In the evening I don't have time, and tomorrow morning all will be over :jumpin::jumpin:. On a lighter note, I just fractured two ribs, so I have a lot of...

Do you run everything on 12 or 24 volt or do you also have a 110 V converter installed? I know my brother had one (220 in our case). When stand-alone, he could run also a Desktop PC's and other 220 volt stuff of his power circuit. When he was along land, he connected to the regular net run the...

I did not thought you would have done it this thoroughly without considering a lot of options and probable problems. Never hurts to say it and it might trow up some things that other people doing similar things have not thought about. I am also sure that professionals know what to do (or...

Seems like a nice project. Some points with the placing of the tank and batteries though. 1) That high up, doesn't it bring your tank high up exposed to the full power of the sun when not driving? 2) Propane and butane are heavier than air, so escaping gas will go down. Outside is no prob...

Actually, took some time to sink in that I did not see any adds at all!. Maybe because I am privacy-aware and hate unsolicited adds and stuff, so I have several add-blockers, pop-up blockers and other stuff active to stop that and stop tracking if not all then at least some of the searches and...

fat lady singsfat lady sings Trying to make everybody sick here or what? For that amount, I would have bought her and shipped her to the Czech Republic (including first mate). We have a lot of large fishponds (the largest is about 2 square miles) and flooded floodplains here, so we could put...

That was my original plan, but reading on SS about problems with modern stuff in old engines, I got a bit worried. Today I had to be in the nearest bigger town, and asked at a Renault truck maintenance station. They had some stuff, and in the end I called the Dutch company to check if it is...

Last time two years ago I simply drained (no flushing or cleaning) the engine and radiator and refilled our multifuel with Eurol Coolant -36 XL, suitable for heavy duty trucks. Now I need to top up with about 5 liter (somewhere I have a leak) but cannot get this stuff here in the Czech Republic...

:oops: I did; lo and behold, found it. Thanks. Did they cahnged the name from TM to FM? The TM...10 on page 2-248 clearly mentions TM. I also downloaded your cover pic. The copy I downloaded did not have any cover, so I can use this to complete it.

Trying to make the truck winter ready again since temps are on average much lower here in the Czech Republic as in the Netherlands. The instructions in the manual mention "refer to TB 750-651 (found) and TM 9-207 (still missing)for further instructions". I tried to look for those manuals but...

I tried to find something on this, but could not. Could you explain a bit more please?

I did not drive much with our truck, but am loosing some liters of water. Was topped up before the last winter, after some driving and standing with running engine -together about 3 hours, low rpm, no pulling or cargo on the truck, even without dump bed. Noticed again that the level is lower, at...
