    Briggs Stratton Diesel

    I have a Daihatsu/ B&S 25 HP diesel engine. I am trying to identify the type on injection pump on it. The data plate has VE3 to start the model number. It is a distributor type pump. With that part of the number known, is it a possibility that it is a Bosch VE pump, 3 cylinder version.

    Gear vs Tranny Oil

    Its a 1986 Jeep CJ7. I have to rebuild the tranny (T-176) and am looking for an oil for it. I saw that the Delo line uses a boron base instead of the sulfur base. But I called the local distributor and they have both for the same price but the smallest container is 5 gallon. So I figured that I...

    grundfos 20-42 water circulator

    Based on that information, it will be a trial and error test. Try the highest speed without causing excessive water noise flowing through the pipes. However, too low of a speed and all of the heat is lost before it makes it to the end of the loop. So like everything else, it is a balancing act.

    Fogged Sight Glass

    I just changed the oil and filter in a Kawasaki Bayou with a 400 CC engine with Rotella 5W40 and now the sight glass is partly fogged over with some white substance. Also, let it be known that it has not been that warm recently and it hasn't really been run at temp that long so far. Does anyone...

    Used oil at Lube shops?

    The Safety Kleen products are not too bad. This past summer, I worked on a state run golf course and all we use are the recycled products. Even though we don't do UOA's the engines seem to be clean and run well with up over 4000 hours.

    Dodge Dakota cold weather oil

    What oil would one recommend for a 2001 Dodge Dakota with a 4.7 liter V8? Also, let it be known that this will be for the winter months in the Adirondack Mtns of New York. For starters, last I remember, the entire month of January was below 0 degrees f, with nighttime lows to the -30s. Brian

    Will they ever go to a -5 w Oil?

    It may just be me wanting to change everything, but I believe that it would be better to have an absolute scale instead of the convoluted SAE scale.

    Coolant Disposal

    If you are on a Municipal sewer, contact them. I know where I live, I called them and said that antifreeze was safe for the sewer. Just another food source for the bacteria.
