I need a good mechanic/shop to do some work on our 06 6.0 Power-stroke
I have been told the seal on the oil line on the back of the injector pump is leaking and this is why it has to crank so long to start it when it hasn't been running for a few hours. It starts up right away if it's only...
Just re-posting a post I had put up this spring, about how to make your own maps for the Garmin

Does anyone have anything good to say about the Telus 3G+/HSPA network out of town? I need to get a new phone and I have heard this network can be a problem out of town (I have heard others say it's fine, but I'm not sure about that).
What is the real scoop? I will almost never be by the big...
For those that have not found it yet, there is a place to store a sizable tool bag on the XP. On the right side, above the muffler, reach up way up, to find a sizable void. The back part of the bag rests on the ECM (but not on any electrical wires or connectors), I hold the bag up with some...
For those of us that have a GPS mounted to the sled, show us how you did it
I used a RAM mount with the U-clamp ball on the bar. I used a GILSSON 12-30V DC Hardwire Cable from GPScentral wire to my battery. It provides power though the mini USB connector which is so common on many devices...
Hi,
2nd question for tonight. Is this grease like stuff back around the crank under the clutch normal? I notice that under the clutch and the back of the clutch is very dirty compared to the rest. Most of the belt dust looking dirt seams to be coming form there. I have never blown a belt...
Hi,
I took my 08 XP clutch apart for cleaning (first time for me), I noticed a strange disk in the bottom of one button tower hole. The sled runs with a moderate engine vibration which riverside told me is common on some 800R but has always annoyed me.
My question is, what is this disk...
I love my goretex gear, I have klim. I was told early on that when I get wet (and I was really wet and f'n cold at the moment) that there was just one solution from that "Goretex". Some of it is getting long in the tooth now, plus we need more as the kids are getting older. The patent ran...
Wife sent me this:
THIS IS A MUST FOR ALL THE MEN OUT THERE THAT LIKE TO BUILD THINGS
New Dewalt Nail Gun
The new nail gun, made by Dewalt can drive a 16D nail through a 2 X 4 at 200 yards. This makes construction a breeze, you can sit in your lawn chair and build a fence. Just get...
This is pretty cool. Considering the year, I think it was way ahead of its time. (The movie is a bit slow to start, give it a bit.)
This is a 16mm demo film of the Armstead Snow Motors Company concept snow vehicle. It was filmed in 1924. The concept is applied to a Fordson tractor and a...
Ha ha! Probably some of you have seen this before, it was new to me.
At first I thought boy, that guy has not being around, he is taking a picture of a directional drill coming out of the ground, what is so interesting about that. Then I thought this was a little wild, I have seen some...
Nice view. Check the gages.
Big cat. When we came back, there were more cat tracks on top of our tracks.
Lunch. Fell asleep. Got a pic. Nothing but time.
Avy from a few days ago.
Supper at Enos. They give you the meet, your the cook. Fantastic food, wow!
They seem to put money...
Updated: More Yellowstone pics for Feb 19
Update: Fixed up the lighting on the full moon pics. Noticed they did not show up the same way on the CRT as my laptop. Yes, it really was pretty bright at night.
Pretty sunny last few days.
Can't seem to get the younger hot shot kids to ride...
Got to Yellowstone today, went for an afternoon ride and the XP isn’t running right. The mag side cylinder drops out at about 1/4 throttle on the trail. Just cuts out when you are just at about ¼” of throttle, drops from about 40mph to 20mph. Just a little more throttle and it cuts back in...
Any one know where to get a rebuilt power steering box for an 03 Dodge RAM?
Napa doesn't have them. I'm sure someone rebuilds them but cant think of who. Need one in short order, heading down to yellowstone next week.
Thank you.
