    K&N Air filter for the deuce

    THAT'S WHY I use RP and ProLong. It negates ANY 'dirt' in the oil. And in more than fifteen years of using K&N I'VE NEVER blown an engine. EVER. And I average one speeding ticket every two or three years. I drive my vehicles hard and nasty. Until now, because I AM gettin older and my...

    K&N Air filter for the deuce

    Bjorn, I am currently running what appears to be a new Napa Gold filter. I don't know if that's a standard filter or not. It's what was in the truck when I purchased it from Jeff. Having said that, the FIRST thing I do with ANY vehicle we purchase is to change the air filters over to K&N and...

    Hazard Lights

    Ok guys, my turn signal DOES DO left (down), right (up) and hazard (all the way up). But there does NOT appear to be some type of stop between the right turn and hazards. Granted it's a LONG WAY UP for hazards, but I don't have to lift up or anything. Is this normal or is this yet one more...

    K&N Air filter for the deuce

    98hd, No pissing contest AT ALL. While you don't LIKE Banks business practices, his records stand out for themselves. And for me THEY STAND ALONE. As I said in the previous thread, I do agree that there are unscrupulous business people that have worked for the Banks company over the years...

    How to quiet down the deuce cab...

    Dr Robert, I DO understand. But hey, you can't hardly RIP out the fatmat lining. Maybe with a scraper? Now, the door and wall additions from my upholsterer is another story. You didn't see where I've parked my truck. Behind my Suburban. I haven't fashioned a gate yet, that's later this...

    K&N Air filter for the deuce

    98hd, I've used K&N filters in ALL my vehicles for the past 15 years. Gale Banks, holder of the WORLDS RECORD for the fastest diesel truck (222 mph) ONLY uses K&N. That's GOOD ENOUGH for me. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=3472&highlight=turbo+diesel...

    How to quiet down the deuce cab...

    Gents. I concur COMPLETELY with everything said here. Having said that, my hearing is down the crapper already. Too many loud guns, loud music and loud motorcycles without hearing protection in my misspent youth. And I WILL be keeping the 'blowing smoke and loud noise part'. I'll just be...

    K&N Air filter for the deuce

    OK, after spending about twenty minutes discussing air filters with Edgar at K&N tech support, we both concur that the correct K&N air filter to use on the deuce will be the RU-3260. The NAPA GOLD number on the filter currently in my deuce is 2837 14699N3 ( it MIGHT be U3 as I can't read my own...

    How to quiet down the deuce cab...

    OK folks, I have now experienced first hand the noise in the deuce cab. Yeah, you can talk, kind of, but LORD ALMIGHTY it IS one noisey sucker. Of course, the fact that you are riding inside a 'tin can' doesn't actually help any. I have been waiting to purchase the deuce before embarking on a...

    Biodiesel manufacturing on the cheap

    Mangus, So, it sounds like WE need to do a minor redesign and post it here? I concur that you should be opening/closing a valve instead of 'swapping' a hose or hoses. I have no problem with raising things up off the ground. That keeps me from having to bend over all the time to work on it...

    Biodiesel manufacturing on the cheap

    Bjorn, I figured YOU of all people would be using this! Parts are less than three hundred (assuming you can find a fairly cheap water heater - new ones at the Lowes here start at about $125). Mangus580, How do you like using this setup? Is it easy to use or no? DrFoster says that his wife...

    OT - New Photo Display Site for Me

    THOSE PIX ARE SO KEWL! That shot of you going through the mud is just AWESOME! And you've got a really nice set of Super Singles on your deuce!!! Where did you get them and which arm/leg did you have to give for them? The only guy I've talked to wants $400 each per wheel PLUS s&h from the...

    What is this piece next to the exhaust stack?

    Ok, upon closer inspection I have a question. What is this piece attached to the rear (left in this picture) of the exhaust stack? It appears to be actually attached to the passenger door.

    Anyone know who made the LDT turbo? How about bore x stroke

    I just love it when people talk technical. I followed most of it Doc, but you used a couple of words I had to think on... This is gonna get interesting fairly quickly, especially when you get the yea or neah from Wyoming about your truck. If not, off to WV to Clarks Trucks. In a few weeks...

    Heated fuel tank project, biodiesel, WVO..

    Heated fuel tank project, biodiesel, WVO..

    mangus, How right you are. I'll just go back to my room, take some more medication and take my nap. And I'M NOT kidding. Having said that, what you have done Bjorn is amazing. You only have two (ok, one is split by you - three?) fuel tanks hanging in the 'normal' places? You seem to have...

    Heated fuel tank project, biodiesel, WVO..

    Bjorn, I just looked at 'Abusing the tractor again' thread. You don't show a fuel tank on the drivers side of your tractor. I want to put AT LEAST one more fuel tank where the spare goes. The spares (that's correct - plural) will end up in the back of the truck. I first tired to 'reinvent...
