Re: Diesel mechanic and/or injector testing

The 7.3L International PSD was a pretty great engine. I hope you're using a fuel conditioner each time you fuel up from Oct-May. One of the things you might be having a problem with is the plumbing on the pressurized size of the turbo. Check all the connections, hardware, cooler etc for leaks. Witho...

Re: The use of knee braces and injury prevention

I've never had any knee issues etc... From what I'm reading, some are recommending these things to avoid having issues after a crash? I crash alot, should I be looking at these?

Re: Pressure Suit Recommendation

Re: Landing a plan in cold weather

In 1988 as a young stupid pilot that was so frisky to fly, I rented a Cessna 152 in 45-65 kts wind. I did a cross country flight in down/cross wind conditions in no time flat, landed and stopped on the numbers! It took me two hrs to fly up/cross wind back to my home airport! I curbed my enthusiasm a...

Re: Diesel trucks

I've put 2 EGR (1st replacement lasted 4 months), all new injectors, head tubes, turbo manifold, re-flash, etc etc etc. The new ULS fuel has much lower 'Lubrocity'. On some of my bigger trucks (International DT 466) I saw the milage go from 12mpg to 8mpg just from the fuel change. So while the truck...

Had I not been 'assimilated by the Berg'...
