9:27 for answer your welcome
;)
my pulley exploded today, checked it when i was replacing the belt earlier this summer and it seemed good, now the car is in non working condition and i have to borrow a car till the parts get here next week..
Good times. You can replace the pulley itself if the alternator is good... last time I checked, they were around $95
Been waiting for this!!
Slowly but surely.
Nice video quality!
Thanks!
If the exhaust is that hot going through the wall then you are wasting a ton of heat. Figure out a way to keep that heat inside, maybe run the exhaust through a couple old cast iron steam radiators then outside.
I've seen that done and it works well
what day were you there? trying to assess the mud situation for an upcoming trip.
Its been a few weeks. With that said, the area has had very little rain over the last few weeks. Should be fairly dry.
Chris, Looks like you had some fun! What fuel do you run in your Jeep?
Its a 4.0 gas burner... gets 93 octane from the pump.
@@NotSoGrandGarage For some reason I thought it was a diesel and you ran it on WMO....
@@jeffgreen977 not currently. It may be one of these days though
You have to understand the application. My wife's 2017 Mazda CX-5 OE filter from Mazda has no anti-drain valve. Why? Because the filter mounts vertically and upside down so there is no need.
This filter sits sideways... And the original wix does have an ADV.
@@NotSoGrandGarage In that case, yes, you'd want anti-drainback valve.
Part number ??? I need one and I want to make sure it’s right before I buy it
amzn.to/3MpsL6T
Can you please post the parts and the socket used for the top king pin? Struggling looking for these parts, and I'd hate to order the wrong thing. I have a 97 f350 4x4 and everything I'm finding is only for 76-91, but I'd think they would work because I have a Dana 60 from factory. I don't know, I'm lost. Thanks for any help!
The '97 F350 SHOULD be a ball joint setup from the factory. If its got king pins, it was swapped in which wouldn't make much sense. The ball joint dana 60 is just fine. With that said, Dana, Spicer, or Moog would be my choices for replacement ball joints.
Very valuable. Priceless information. Thank you.
Thanks for watching
You think its possible to slowly push oil back into the new drain plug as my fill plug is in a very bad spot.
You can always fill through the vent hose.
1/8 inch plug looks like it might be a 3/8 inch
It's 1/8" npt.
Wonder if I can fill it from the bottom???
Probably not. You could use the vent hose though
Im curious, if i may ask, what or how do you deal with mixed oil? Ive heard to try an avoid synthetic. Or if a shop mixes that engine oil with trans or hydraulic oils
It all burns. I dump everything in my storage tanks.
I picked up a front diff bushing kit off eBay last week
Someone actually making kits with the side bushings now? Usually, those kits only have the rear bushings
well done Sir! Outstanding video 5 Stars!
Thanks
How did you do this I have a 2003 z71 1500 Silverado I want to put a 4bt in and can you keep the same tranny
A lot of fab work and time. You can use the 4l60.. but it won't live long in stock form. I'm running a 4l80e. Custom motor mounts... Torsion bars from a 3500hd to support the weight... Etc..etc.
Have you had experience with those marine oil purifier centrifuge units? They use multiple stacked cone discs which increases the surface area for solids and water separation. A used Mitsibishi SJ-25 sells for about the same price as those moms and pops centrifuge.
I've not had any experience with them but I'll say the stacked cone style industrial centrifuges work extremely well .. they are just typically out of most people's price ranges and could require 3ph power.
Why didn't you just pull the axles out as long as you had it like you would replace axles heck of more room
Wasn't mine and we weren't replacing anything else. It wasn't hard to drop without pulling the shafts.
@NotSoGrandGarage yes I looked at another one and your method was the best. Great video thank you.
TEMU wix filter, shit dont look real lmao
Straight from O'Reilly's. Janky for sure
pro tips use a locking collar on your drill bit save you a lot of headaches
Not a bad idea at all
Thank you. I had an 88 ragtop for ten years. I just got an 87 tintop. I like these videos.
I put LED H7 head lights in my RAM ProMaster they're way better for night driving
Nice. I love the ones in my Tahoe with projector housings. HUGE difference
Looks like they have a decent pattern and beam cutoff, but it does look like they still have more above the cutoff than the factory halogens. But maybe that’s your camera setup. Probably not enough to matter during regular driving, but even a little glare above the cutoff point matters a lot in inclement weather.
So far, they seem decent. We haven't had any rain and such yet but we'll see how they do here soon.
Thank you Chris! I would be interested to hear how your WMO vehicles are running and if you have made any changes to your system. Also, maybe some info on sourcing and collecting oil....
No changes to anything really. Everything has been working well without issue. As for sourcing oil, your best bet is small shops (that don't use it for heat) and / or farmers. Collection highly depends on your setup and what you are capable of storing. I typically pick it up by the tote.. 275 or 330 gallons at a time.
I like how the lights are super bright and blind everybody. We have tons of people in my town with them. Im personally going to chrome wrap the back of my vehicle so they can see what i see.
Gotta love d-bags that don't know how to properly adjust headlights to prevent blinding oncoming drivers.
What headlight bulbs do you have?
I now have Auxito LEDs in the Tahoe. STUPID bright. I've got a video on that too.
I have a question? My fill plug is rounded off so I cannot get the Allen wrench to loosen it so is it possible to fill it through the vent plug. I can get that fitting loose? Great video by the way!
Last time I changed the oil, I filled it through the vent hose. Only issue is you can't see how full it is so keep track of how much comes out.
Nice
They are solid little jump packs for sure. I've got several of them now.
whoa
He just wanted to know what I was doing. Probably EPA
Put a 1.9 in a boat
Could be fun
New security system
Should work fairly well
Where do you find a good center fuse
I sell them. I became a WVO Designs dealer after a couple years running their stuff. As or right now, they are the best in the game at this price point. www.notsograndgarage.com
Could you filter it into a 55 gallon drum and add diesel to it and use it just filtered through a 2 micron filter?
I used to do it that way... its been a decade or so at this point. I'd flow through a filter bank down to around 2 mic. The issues there are the filters are not typically absolute rated so they miss half of the particulate of the rated size. They also don't remove water. What engine are you planning on feeding? Some are a LOT more forgiving.
Nice
Thanks
Hey man great video, can you elaborate on installing the solenoid to avoid a runaway condition ?
When you remove the pump top bolts, the top will slide forward a bit (towards the front of the truck). When you put the cover back on, it needs to sit slightly forward and then slide back a little. If you try to bolt it on straight, it will bind on the internal linkage and potentially cause a runaway condition. Its always wise to have the air cleaner off and a plank of wood that can cover the inlet when working on an injection pump. If a runaway occurs, block off airflow and it'll shut down without damage. It WILL spit/sputter and rev up a bit when it first starts as the pump is full of air but should calm down pretty quickly.
@@NotSoGrandGarage thanks for your reply. I guess you showed that pretty well in the video; I’ll be sure to install the cover while it’s forward a little from the pump and have it drop in with no force. How far forward from the bolt holes should it be? I have the NA 6.9 with stock air filter housing, and the hose to the housing deleted. There’s a flat on the inlet of the housing that should work to choke the engine, I’ll test that before doing anything.
@@jadinzack9271 it isn't very far. You'll see it when you remove the top. Maybe 1/8" or so.
@@NotSoGrandGarage thanks man. It looks like you have the top forward and towards the right a bit too(when looking from the front) is that true?
Side to side doesn't matter too much. Line it up fairly straight and forward so when you sit it down, it has to move back to line up the bolts. That should be it.
May i ask what centrifuge you are using and a video on how to use it would be great.
Check the playlist. As for the centrifuge, it's the WVO Designs Extreme. You can order one from my website... www.notsograndgarage.com
You are sucking hot air into your intake with you air filter like that. Air density is a thing.
Beats no air filtration at all. Had to make something work as I didn't have the stock air box. With that said, it'll change at some point but not sure when.
How long have you been running on wmo?? Any issues with clogged filters,injection pump damage or injector problems? Any difference in milage acceleration and overall performance? I ask i have a 86 f250 4x4 6.9idi want to run on wmo
Multiple IDIs for over a decade. My flatbed has never had the injectors out and is on the original 200k+ mile pump also. I've never had a permanent failure caused by my fuel. Now in my Cummins and my bus, I've had issues with injector coking causing smoke and power loss. Pull injectors... Clean the tips manually and back in they go... Back to normal. The 6.9 will drink oil just fine.
@@NotSoGrandGarage hey man thank you the old 6.9 idi I have I love the old truck. Thank you so much for the reply. Would filtering it out with a Caterpillar 1R-0749 fuel filter or cat oil filter 1R0716. The oil I have at the shop has everything in it. I can't afford a 1,000.00 centerfuge
@@NotSoGrandGarage love your setup
@@NotSoGrandGaragewish you a thousand likes man!! I'm from Bamberg sc!! Hey here's an idea move here I need a neighbor and a fishing buddy!!
@@JefforeySiegel I'm a fan of SC. Nice area for sure. I'd hate to think of moving again but never know what the future holds. Thanks for watching bud
Why three passes? I know you have done tests and one pass is not always adequate. But three passes? Are you getting extra dirty oil? Or is it just so cheap to run it another cycle you do it for peace of mind?
Peace of mind and I'm in no rush typically.
nice unit mine burns around 3/4 gallon of fuel with lite load. mabe 20%
Yeah they can be a bit thirsty but it'll always do what ya ask of it.
Dont put that shit in your diesel truck it will clog it up and fuck the engine.
....15 years deep... I'm good. I have a whole playlist and a business dedicated to it. Thanks for the input though.
Its cool
thanks
canning beans i see lol
Something like that. Lol
NEGRO?? DE SEGURO LO HACEN CON COCA COLA.
Lol.. I don't think I'd want to run that.
MIlage has to be rough
Not really. I get 520ish miles on a 38 gallon tank... On fuel that costs me $0.10/gallon to produce.
What’s this cost to make plenty of used oil that needs a purpose
Depends.... I've got a playlist that goes into detail on it all. After setup... $0.10/gallon or so to make.
My diesel is black also. ⛽
Nice. I've got a whole playlist dedicated to it if you haven't seen it yet.
@@NotSoGrandGarage I'll check it out.
I'm always intrigued by your system. I can't wait to get back into this.
With the way prices are fluctuating.... No better time than now.
@@NotSoGrandGarage it's 3.49 a gallon here in TX .I have one with a 4bt 1946 stylemaster sedan disc brakes all 4 wheels. Need to finish brakes and wiring harness. The other one is a 88 short wide. With a 97bt .I was pushing it a little hard now it has lots of white smoke.
@@MiguelMartinez-gd1sv sound like fun projects. Yeah it's over 4/gallon here again. Was down to 3/gallon a month or so ago
I think I'd use an ⅛" ball valve instead of a plug.
You could... but it's pretty close to the ground. In my mowing area, I'd be concerned with breaking it off. Now if you are talking a normal lawn, it'd probably do just fine. Then again... the engine oil drain is a plug too... so it doesn't really matter that much.
