Here we are arguing about who and who isn't a "superuser" and the only ones that will benefit are the politicians running all over the world in their private jets, yachts, heating/cooling their gigantic multiple houses. These turds are the biggest "superusers" of them all and they were...

specs like that are pretty hard to find. I do have a data point from a completely different application... 94 Z28 with the LT1 Years ago I was trying to prove an electrical water pump doesn't move nearly as much coolant as the stock water pump. I ended up coming across some data which showed...

This is a very small amount of water. Just keep running it. Engines are not hermetically sealed to water. Burning gas creates water, blowby when the engine is cold condenses a small amount of water into the crankcase. In cold climates many vehicles will see water buildup on the oil cap due to...

Pent up demand because no vehicles are on the lots. It's funny how you can swing an opinion with a single story or by a single omission. The industry as a whole is not in good shape due to the ongoing chip shortage...

Someone needs to put a damper on his throttle, the constant "blipping" is really annoying.

It's very possible that by 220k, AFM has either been deleted or deactivated. Without AFM these engines will generally outlast the chassis they are set on assuming its had oil changes and doesn't have the heads prone to cracking, although I believe they had that sorted out by 07

I would usually urge someone to go honda, but in this case I would choose the horizontal shaft 196cc engine for a few reasons. 1.) The 196cc horizontal shaft engine is basically a clone of a honda GX engine with an iron bore, the honda probably has a aluminum bore. These chinese clones have...

I put Element3's on all 4 corners of my 07 Camry. I've been pretty satisfied with them, despite being GG rated pads, I still feel like they don't have quite as good of feel when compared to the OE pads, but they are the closest I have come across so far.

Yup that's been the spec from GM on any of the Gen 1 and Gen 2 SBC's, V8's and the 4.3 V6's. Knowing this is why it always bothers me whenever someone quotes the 10 psi per 1000 RPM line while referring to these engines, which is obviously misleading in this case. If you got more than 20 psi at...

Most likely a 1000 gallon tank. My parents had one growing up, it was large enough that we only filled it up once a year. Handy when you could pick the cheapest time of year to fill it to the brim

The way the jiggle pin is designed is that when the engine is off and the water pump isn't creating any water pressure the pin will fall and provide a pathway to vent air. This helps purging air from the cooling system on the initial fill. once the engine is running and water pump is trying to...

When the clutch fan locks up it is absolutely unmistakable. They make an incredible racket and probably require 10 hp at 2000 engine RPM, they are that loud. You would know without a doubt if/when it locks up. On cool mornings you probably hear the fan make more noise compared to when it's...

That was a fair and factual article by Fox. It is true that some fast chargers cost a lot more per kwh than some other sources. This would effect people that would like to take their vehicles outside of a 150 mile radius (much less in winter sometimes) of their home or work charging which will...

I can confirm. Drove a 09 Malibu 3.6 and the engine and shifting performance was worlds better at all temps with at least 89 octane. The mileage increased enough that it would almost entirely offset the increase in price for 89 at least in my area. For anyone else that thinks a vehicle...

If you're interested in the date of manufacture for the engine its the 92120703 number we want to look at the order of the number is year, month, day, assembly plant in this case the year is 1992 the month is december the day is the 7th and the plant of 03 means the Rolla, MO plant.

Is your heater core still hooked up Do you have a coolant shutoff installed in the heater lines? Worth the ask since I see you're from a warmer state. I have seen people try to re-engineer those things and create problems. The loop between the two nipples on the water pump for the heater core...

My research shows propane expands 1.5% every 10 degrees F By my calculations it would take a 150 degree F temperature swing from a tank at 80% full to when it would run out of room to expand. So it would take filling a tank with -30 F propane and it would run out of room to expand when the...

Rear cover bolts should be 20 ft/lbs

I suppose a lube failure would be more common in a southern state. In the north I imagine lubes in the rear diff would last a lot longer which is where my experience is coming from.
