    How to clean coolant side of a boat heat exchanger?

    of course might work. Would that work without a running engine, like pour in and sit. Boat is out of water, it is 37 footer. Won't be running for a few months. So no chance of a flush that has to work with hot coolant and running engine right now. I may try spraying oven cleaner. I want to use...

    Powerstroke 6.7L oil drain-back concern; filter?

    I agree about the ADBV blocking flow, but not all filters have that. I don't know if all Powerstrokes have ADBV filters, originally had assumed they did not because so much oil was leaking back to pan in Dave's video. But people have posted filters that do. My Cummins 5.9 has no ADBV. I don't...

    Powerstroke 6.7L oil drain-back concern; filter?

    I think if you took a 1.25" pipe full of hot oil on it's side, and opened up one side wide open, all the oil will drain out of the tube. What I don't know is if one end is submerged in the sump (the pickup), will prevent that from happening. I also do not know if in his test, the oil filter...

    Powerstroke 6.7L oil drain-back concern; filter?

    So question is, does the ADBV actually prevent oil from draining back on the Powerstroke? Or is it useless, the oil supply pipes to the filter are huge, maybe the oil can escape those huge pipes even with ADBV The oil drains out all the way to the filter itself. draining inlet tube pickup, oil...

    Powerstroke 6.7L oil drain-back concern; filter?

    Those are significant delays to getting oil pressure. Then you have some who won't pre-fill their big oil filters, will just add more time to finally getting some oil to the bearings. I have always prefilled engine oil filters.

    Powerstroke 6.7L oil drain-back concern; filter?

    AFAIK, Powerstroke filters do not have ADBV. Except for that Fram Titanium FS10890. If I had a Powerstroke Diesel, I would use that Fram with ADBV to help solve the problem. I know my Cummins filters do not have ADBV either I looked up Fram Titanium for my Cummins 5.9, and there is not ADBV in...

    Powerstroke 6.7L oil drain-back concern; filter?

    Was watching a Dave's video and he adds in a check valve in the large oil pickup tube in the pan Says he is fixing a lot of Powerstrokes with spun and wiped out bearings due to bad oiling system design. Thoughts?

    What do you think about this electrical work?

    Interesting, why cause it's too weak on the bare cable? Or it does not grip the wire cable? I have never used one of these done like this here.

    Microsoft claims AI diagnostic tool can outperform doctors

    About a medical AI, they would all be of the same mind or similar, always at peak knowledge and work in places where human doctors don't want to. Salary, getting paid, would not be their motivation. AI can learn on it's own and AI robots can be uploaded. Nvidia is working on AI robots that can...
