Can the World Cup be won without having some superstars in the team? Look back at the past recent champs and tell me if a team of very good players have won of if it requires having a top tier player on the team.
Hi. I am repairing a very low miles 2023 Ram 2500 with a 6.7. I bought a donor vehicle which has a 6.7 that has been weight loss moded. It has a straight pipe exhaust - no muffler. I would like to give my new motor the same weight loss treatment. Any good mechanical reason not to use the straight pipe? I do plan on getting a new tune. Also I like the sound of the straight pipe, it is not too loud. Not worried about EPA check ups.
Hi everyone. I have a 2023 Ram 2500 with a 6.7 Cummins that was wrecked and the turbo intercooler was damaged. I need to buy a replacement. I plan to use the truck as a work truck that will be loaded at al times and tow occasionally. I can get new, non OEM intercoolers on Ebay for $300, New OEM intercoolers for $800, or new Mishimoto intercoolers for $2100. I don't want to waste money either way - by going cheap and hurting my motor or losing power, or by getting something amazing that I wont benefit from. What would you suggest?
I am needing a meter base for a duplex. Duke Energy requires a 2 position meter base, rather than 2 single meter bases ganged together. Each side of the duplex will have a 200A panel with main breaker. If a 2 position meter base such as the Eaton 1008842CH, is rated at 200 Amps can I use it for my application? I understand it has a max of 200 Amps - but I could pull 400 Amps. What do you normally do?
I am not a devoted landscaper and am looking for beauty with low maintenance. This home is in Hardiness Zone 8b. Big bushy azaleas provide great support for vines. I don't really like azaleas (there are more in the garden area that will remain). I have pine trees in the yard so my current thoughts are to put pine straw against the foundation as weed suppressor. Then add some easy care, slow growth plants. What would you do? Plant suggestions?
My nephew and I are trying to fix our boat. It has a 5.7L Marine Power inboard motor. We bought it in good running condition, then ran it out of gas which is when we realized the gauge did not work! Filled it up with gas and now the motor will only run at high revs (7000) for 2-3 minutes from a cold start. Then the revs drop down to 3000rpm and no more. Switch it off and start again and the revs will go back up to 7000rpm for 21 seconds, then immediately drop back down to 3000rpm. That is every time - like it is being controlled by the control module. We had the module checked out (I guess it is called an ECM or similar) and it came back as working perfectly. We have replaced the fuel filter, both fuel pumps - low pressure and high pressure, and oil gauge. We really need to get it ready for family vacation.
No boat = SAD CHILDREN.
We are planning to take it out and work on it this week. Any ideas? $40 reward just for your genius diagnosis if it proves to be correct!!! (first one) Just think what you could do with that $$
