As a small engine mechanic I have seen this several times.... Most of the time it was due to a faulty regulator or a shorted stator under the engine flywheel. Also as mentioned earlier hold your hand on the carburetor anti backfire solenoid and if it gets hot, replace it..... because it...

Watched an awesome video the other day on how Mazda is supposedly fixing to revolutionize the combustion engine technology. They are even going to use this technology in a new rotary engine also...... Essentially they run a super lean mixture that is so lean that it will not self ignite...

Man........ lately I have been watching some pretty gnarly videos lately on YouTube having to do with graphene superconductors being built and refined overseas. Supposedly it's also 100x stronger than steel. Also watched a good show about how hydrogen battery systems paired with graphene super...

Built in whole home generator and propane. Best money we ever spent and most companies have financing available. I'm a big fan of the Kohler commercial grade engines since I rarely have them come in the shop besides owner neglect. Ours is 20kw and can take that load in one step. My vote is for...

All of the commercial guys in this area run OPTI2, as do I. It has stabilizers in the oil already and it's a "one mix for all". I have ran this stuff for 20 years and have had zero problems with my OPE and ethanol free fuel. Sometimes my stuff sits 6 months or more at a time depending on the...

I have a heavy duty echo kioritz SRM3100 I bought back exactly 20 years ago and it still runs good to this day..... it's a heavy mother trucker though...... I recently bought another commercial grade husquavarna 525lst and it lighter and smoother and I love it! I maintain my 55 acre farm and a...

Finest 21" walk behind made...... I wore one engine out and replaced it, second one still running strong..... I have had mine since 1999......... Worth every penny! https://www.ariens.com/en-eu/lawn-p...owers/classic-lm/classic-swivel-wheel-br

Autolite are on the low end of the spectrum..... its hard to go wrong with the good ole trusty NGK copper cores like a BPR5ES, CR7E, BMR6A, etc

Originally Posted by supton I generally think Toyota (Aisin?) has something against the concept of convertor lockup--they are quick to unlock and push too tall of a gear. I can repeatedly get lower rpm in my truck by commanding downshifting on a hill. It'll push 6th unlocked rather than 5th...

Originally Posted by Linctex Flashpoint of the fuel is too high. Try something more winter oriented. I know people will flame me - but adding just a pint or two of gasoline to your diesel tank will make that thing behave, You can also put a quart or so of methanol/e85 in there if its acting...

The ol tundra has a check engine light on...... it's the downstream oxygen sensors saying that poor catalytic converter efficiency/below threshold. I replaced the oxygen sensors a few months ago but had a feeling it was gonna be the cats. My question is that rather than spending $1000 on factory...

Based on VOA and UOAs, who makes the heaviest duty 30 WT? Can be synthetic, conventional or blend.......... Just curious...... Can be diesel or gas rated. ***PS*** I remember a year or so ago watching on a wear test, old recipe valvoline durablend spanking up on all the high dollar synthetics

I carry a 2nd gen g22 every day, that or a p226. Unless I'm wearing shorts then I switch to a g43 or a p365

Hard to beat oreilly super start. They are made in the USA. I have a lead acid in my tundra going on 6 years

From my experience in the drag race world and just general usage, autolite are a low quality plug. We ran autolites in all of our nitrous engines because of the low quality, (compared to others) the plug would melt before the piston. In my 2004 tundra I installed the autolite iridiums because...
