    11 gallons of oil?

    To easily check if fuel is in the oil, take the oil and place a drop of it on some paper. Diesel oil will form a black drop on the paper of course. But if there's diesel fuel mixed into it, there will be a halo around the drop after a few minutes.

    Got driveshafts balanced yet? Otherwise, it's like a grenade ready to go off at any time.

    Which is not allowed. On a side note about driveshafts. Something I learned from a old wise man who made a living working on driveshafts. When you've got things in place and there's just a little vibration you can't get rid of from it, drill a small hole and put about pint of ATF in it, then...

    Replying to a classified

    I'm not going to go any deeper, but I see where you've sent 4 messages to him. He hasn't been online since Saturday though. Your conversations have all been after his last logon date.

    What is this?

    Yes, some steam/smoke/oil is normal. Edit: I thought you were talking about the draft tube that hangs down if it's still there, or just a tube (if hose is gone) that hangs below the turbo)

    If no one is interesting in the oshkosh HVAC system in a crate, I won't be bringing it. I won't be able to get there until Friday. And I'll have to leave Saturday afternoon. I have a failover test that we had to postpone to next Sunday.

    Daimler Ferret MK1

    I've been recovering from covid-19, but today was the first day I felt like trying to do anything. So I sanded off all the rust on the fuel tank and primed it.

    Please Don't Squeeze The HMMWV! AKA Used My Visa To Make A SuperCharge

    Back when I used to play in the diesel performance world there were a few Cummins guys running a supercharger. But it was only to help them run huge single turbos to make up for the lack of spool on top end. However the cummins has plenty of power to spare. Superchargers require power to...

    Dana 44 axles needed

    The CUCVs use corporate 10 bolts front and rear on the M1009. Honestly though, and 73-87 chevy 1/2 ton axles will work. You could also probably find a 3.42 geared set. Or maybe 3.73. You could run 33's then. The gov-lock has never impressed me. I've turned 3 of them into kibbles and bits...
