TH-400s are infamous for spitting out excess fluid. As Tinstar pointed out, check that what's left of the ATF is good. If it is, and the level is still above "Min" on the dipstick, I wouldn't worry about it. You may want to start carrying a fire extinguisher if it happens again, though.

Unless I'm missing something, I think the main thing to buy for a charge air cooler mounted in that position would be a very potent fan.

Finally, all four tires installed. It would've been quicker had it not been for the 10-minute duty cycle of the (formerly) parts SEE. Gotta fix that air leak somewhere between the strainer and fuel tank, or put an electric pump in there for now. Primering with the hand pump is getting really...

What makes you think that I'll get the bugs worked out?!? Or learn how to post a video (if I can convince someone to take one)? I can and will take photos of the carnage...hope that helps. Today's adventure will be to find out if the (formerly) parts SEE starts. If it does, the new tires are...

Well, we'll see. I might break it the first time it's used. But the pins are 1-inch and the three pieces are very heavy so it may not be as weak as we both think. One thing that puzzles me is that from what I've read, the thumb must be longer than the bucket, meaning that the bucket hits the...

Glad to hear that it worked out, with the alternator intact and working.

Not even word of mouth, Ahab, but I'll have to pick up some rocks (not boulders, I hope) and move some brush around this spring. Equipped with a bad back, bad knees, and a hernia, I figured that 180 bucks and some welding could be a reasonable price/time to pay for being able to pick up said...

Would dual calipers be better than upgraded calipers and rotors?

I'm no alternator/regulator whiz, but yes, I think running the alternator open would result in overly high voltage output. I also think that it could be a good way to cook said alternator.

I haven't mounted mine yet so I can't guarantee that it'll be a perfect fit/size, but noticed that Titan Distributors has a 10% off deal going (and a 5% off for first time customers, if the offers can be combined) so anyone looking to get a thumb for their SEE may want to check out the "32"...

Wide whites, General, wide whites. And maybe a lowering kit.

Hey, I like all the things that can be accomplished with my SEE. And at least I'm not stuck with an M819. I imagine that owning one of those could put a damper on anyone's outlook on life. Then again, I wouldn't mind having one nearby when I get a SEE stuck.

So you had nothing to do with me smacking myself hard with a tire iron (very close to my eye) this afternoon? One down, three to go. In retrospect, I should've sandblasted these wheels. Not sure if they were found on the Titanic, or filled from a saltwater pond by the military. Either way...

Alright, Ron, you win. The retaliation was swift and efficient. Within minutes of posting the above, the power went out. Remind me not to rag on you again.

Maybe it's just me, but I'd be more inclined to try to help someone with vehicular issues if they didn't constantly badmouth the very vehicle I bought voluntarily (as, I'm guessing, did most of the FLU owners here on SS). Yes, being imperfect, like any other vehicle, a FLU can definitely...

Not saying that it'll work on a SEE, but I've had good luck on other vehicles with simply filling the master and then let it sit for a few days. Self bleeding at its finest...if time allows.

SEE sickness can be a good thing. No water involved.

These days that may be a legal requirement. Especially if one of the boys decided to identify him/itself as a woman. Except if it actually is a woman, in which case she probably can't be refused entry to the the boys' group. Or something like that - I can't keep up with all the new rules.

That makes two of us. I've found the FLUs to be very useful machines, although with their quirks. But then, if I wanted a regular boring life I'd probably be driving a Prius and watch TV a lot...and be dead because of boredom by now. Welcome.

Wimp.
