    CV head lights

    A truck whether C/Van or TT after a year of running in salt and road junk looses 75% of its grounding. Head lights are right out front getting it all. Suggestion, reground your headlights and see the difference. They last longer and are brighter. You might reground your cab or body to the...

    The Answer to insulating C/Vans and trucks.

    The box test that they are refering to is done when R ratings can't be figured. The only way to measure R value is by thickness and naturally this isn't thick. The Maxx vehicles are using this technology and claiming R-11, again where they get the R's I don't know. I will give an update as...

    TakeOff & Landing

    I don't know about the puppys but cabin pressure in an aircraft is adjusted as you go hence the popping. I don't know about the new aircraft but the older models maintained a cabin pressure of 7 thousand feet, that's another reason.

    The Answer to insulating C/Vans and trucks.

    It's hard to believe but this stuff works. 2 gallons will do a C/Van or Maxx. Brush, roller or sprayer. It's clear. Amazing stuff. Tip, Wash the top of your cab or C/van top and let thoroughly dry. Apply thin coat with a sprayer. Let dry an hour and reapply. Try not to get wet for 72...

    Yes, going to have it out end of 1st quarter. I'm waiting to fall off the cliff. :rolleyes: I'm trying to decide if it's cost effective to have an Onan with shore power and a low profile A/C and heat system. Almost $9 grand for the way I want it. When you look at a 2,000 watt Honda it's...

    Any GM van lock out tips?

    I did a job for a Lock Smith a couple years back. He paid me with a lock picking kit and a lesson on how to open car doors. I thought it would be hard but it's really a piece of cake. I can do it now with two paper clips. Try talking to a lock smith and see if you can inspire him to give you...

    mbe headaches again, 3rd time

    Some mechanics refuse to replace the seals (gaskets) on the exhaust manifold when they re-install the manifold. Those seals on a MBE fit into a groove. If they are bad you cannot get a good torque on the manifold bolt because you don't get a positive seal in the head. Could be the problem...

    Need to replace fuel pump in a chevy express van

    Smart thing to do. Very easy to do on that model. Just do it with very low fuel level, don't have to drop it to the floor, just about a foot will do it. Don't forget to take the fill neck off.
