  1. OP, are you good on the clutch?? Looks like a bomb went off in there!! W and F, care to explain this statement???? Not arguing, just asking. I've had both..........NV5600 is way better for towing. Less rpm drop between shifts.
  2. 8 years on mine in my '04.5. I'd have to say they're fine...............not like Furd glow plugs!!!!!
  3. Are you "deputized" and allowed to carry a sidearm??
  4. Just a wondrin' Michael. Sounds like it's to damn dry to even fart outside while smoking around your parts. Twas looking forward to some pix.I've run my new stove probably a dozen times now. After the first 6, I added 3 feet to the chimney. World of difference. Now I don't have to be so anal about watching temps as I dial her down. She cruises at 550-600* stove top temps............beautiful secondaries going also. I'll post some pox of the secondaries later. Need to find a way to circulate the heat around the house now!!!!:banghead:
  5. This is an '06????? Sounds odd to me. My '04.5 and my Buds '03 are still going on the OEM starter!!!! I dunno what to say!!!
  6. Can't get real excited over a chimney.............I understand................but I am.............I can burn now!!!!!! Burned last night in fact. The stove is no longer a virgin!!!!Here's a couple pix of the class A chimney I put in. Got the truck and trailer in there also!!!
  7. Was this guy wealthy and retired????..........or still working??? If the latter, that should answer your question. Snake Oil.
  8. Twas a good Monday to do the job........so I did it!!!!!!!! Took more trips up and down the ladder than I'd care for...........but so be it!!!!!:cool:Pix to follow in another thread!!!!
  9. DP=Drive PressureDo a search under Drive Pressure and member AH64ID. He explains is really good.
  10. This^^^^^^^ Also at that psi, your just pumping a lot of hot air and your DP is huge. Not very efficient.
  11. Were these new injectors pop and flow tested to ensure consistency???? Is the fuel return rate normal??? What's the condition of your VP44??Don't see how a Raptor fuel pump system could cause this unless the electrical is hinkey.
  12. Well thank God that we don't have to "Listen" to you spew!!!! All we need to do here is read your spew...............if that!!!!:lmao:All the best in the recovery man!!!!!:thumb1:
  13. You're just scoping out more firewood, aren't you???!!!! Be safe my friend!!!!!
  14. I've been following this fellows posts over on the TDR about his "new" FURD company truck for a while now. This thread is actually part 3 of a series of threads about his truck. All I can say is.........WOW!!! I'm gonna keep Mighty Whitey until she rusts away...............and then I'll put the engine in another vehicle!!! Did I say "WOW"??? www.turbodieselregister.com/forums/showthread.php?238657-2011-Ford-F550-Round-3!!
  15. It took a college edgumucated "engineer" to design it that way so the "backyard" mechanic can't work on his vehicle any longer. Make me wonder why the repair/shop manuals aren't considered "top secret"!!!!!
  16. If the 2nd gens didn't have the APPS located where it is; y'all could plumb in GDP's 2 micron FF kit like on my 3rd gen..............under the intake horn and keep the OEM housing....................
  17. From my first hunt of the year. I took the little brown dog with me. She did OK.....but I'm surely spoiled by what her old man can do!!!!!!
  18. That may be true for some Semi-automatics..................but not Glocks!!!!
  19. Did I mention the "black jump suit"?????:pant::drool:
  20. Bump to the top because I watched her again this AM!!!! Dang..........6'2" in stilettos!!!!!!! :drool:The drool emoticon is not happening now on my 'puter...............so insert the "drool" emoticon after stilettos in my previous paragraph!!!!It's hard to type with your jaw on the keyboard!!!
  21. This^^^^^!!!! I run the Smarty Revo SO 6 on default settings level 5 about 98.67% of the time. That probably puts me 350-375HP and approximately 700-750ft.lbs. torque give or take. I've still got stock injectors, stock turbo, stock cam and have just under 172,xxx on the clock....................all my mods are in my signature. I tow a 3500lb. work trailer around suburbia and normally see 18-20mpg in combined towing/empty driving this time of year. On the settings I mentioned above too!!!! I've had a couple 21mpg tanks since the "free spin hub kit" install, but I don't have enough tanks to truly say that helped any. Even though I think it does!!!!
