    Powersaws - what's everyone using?

    Went for a drive in the woods... scouting for trash for our non-profit so we can organize volunteer cleanups...this is why I bring a saw... First one I cut. Second one is going to need a least a D9. And yes, 17.5 acres in Oregon 22 minutes from town is awesome. We're right on the edge of the...

    Gear pattern check

    Got the initial break in done. It's 19 miles around the lake. Seperate thread on chasing a noise in the front end...turned out it was the rear shaft. So with the rear shaft out it was a perfect opportunity to do a real break in. Starting temp 40.9 to 40.2. Ambient temp is 32. Mileage 249021...

    What's that noise? (Mac's edition)

    Got a Neapco at Eugene Driveline. Pulled all the caps and added grease. Pumped five squirts into the needle bearing after install. Zero noises. Thanks everyone! Mac

    How to install a Ecoboost oil cooler / heater in a 4.0 and why

    Yeah it's basically a Chrysler 300 oil cooler. Mine is doing great, but it pulls down the heat in the cab. -Mac

    Powersaws - what's everyone using?

    Yeah but he's not perfect. Really bad with PPE. Never sets the chain brake. Has a lazy thumb...was watching a video from him about the new 564 and the Husqvarna guy called him out. -Mac

    I wouldn't condemn an O2 sensor until I looked at live ODB data and voltages. Gross simplification but a "good" O2 sensor typically ranges below.9v. And while you're at it I'd look at your fuel trims and check your fuel pressure. Wonder if you're running lean. You can check live ODB data...

    What's that noise? (Mac's edition)

    1998 Jeep TJ AX15 issues

    Be careful of replacement shift forks. I had a shop rebuild mine. It went in and out five or six times. On the first lap it wouldn't shift until first. There was a metal spur on the replacement fork that made contact with the case. Tech didn't see it. When they took it apart I watched and...

    Is it safe to run a battery tender through the DC power port?

    Absolutely! Zero argument! My concern is the parallel conductors. All the wires that run next to that wire. The fuse box. The PDC. Possibly the PCM. I've gone through a lot of battery tenders. I've got mowers, tractors, vehicles, motorcycles... they're all mostly cheap crap. When one of those...
