Your not a dumb girl to ask that. I question the mechanics of some guys. To me if your running a Honda, buy Honda parts, that way there is no question it will work and work safely. You sure don't want to wake in the middle of a good sleep smelling gas or ????? Be safe.:cool:

15 BATTERIES ?????????????????????????????????????????????:eek:

Yes they can be aggravating. :cool:

Number one the answer is yes. They call them "Battery Maintainers." If your going to run that large of a generator why not run the roof unit direct and save the battery's? Matter of fact I believe the 2000 watt generator will run everything. The roof unit will use a lot when starting and...

clicking sound I believe is a hot relay. It's the small silver looking fuses in the box. They get hot and won't kick back. That is just with the key in the on position. If your starting it and get clicking its the starter.

Those are really great numbers. I wonder why some have more Turbo and EGR problems than others but it could be the idling. Dennis have you done any numbers yet with your new Max?? What year did the 6cyl come out on the Sprinter? Was it 08?? To bad the fuel economy went away on that...

Yes does look good. My only question when driving down the road at 60+ and hitting bumps with your 3900# on board, do you think it will bottom out on the wheel well??

The last APU I had, every once in a while it would loose fuel pressure after sitting. It did the same thing but always straightened itself out. Mine also had a hand pump by the fuel filter. Don't know if yours is like that, but if it struggles to start just pump it a couple of times and it...

That's correct but not all do. But that's a good point.:cool:

On one of my Chevy Extended, when the steering wheel shook when hitting a bump and hearing the front end make noises when going slow. The shimming is the idler arm, usually the first to go. After owning many Chevy vans I recommend changing out the front wheel bearings between 200,000 and...

Got mine on E-bay for $60.00. The big thing using them is don't overdue it because if you take to much rubber off then go trade for a new set they won't give you much because they need a certain amount of rubber for recapping. Also when going through a DOT check if they see a cord, your out of...

If you want a 24' box it will be a CDL truck. I don't think you can go that size and not be. You may be under 26k and not have air brakes but you will still need a CDL B or C license. Detroit does make engine for that category but I'm not sure the series number. Good luck.

Better check again. 2011 you can get both the 6 spd and the allison. The allison will cut the flooring space on the pass/side and weigh's more.

I took it in the a dealer and they replaced the torque converter. They seemed confident that that was the problem. It wasn't. That did not fix the issue. I have another appointment with them on Monday but was wondering if this is a common problem or one that may have happened to someone here...

Well that eliminated the drive shaft. It might be an electronic throttle control sensor like was earlier mentioned. Can't believe the tech did not test for that, but techs get paid by the job and a tranny pays more than the sensor???????:confused:

J.R. When you say shudder what exactly do you mean?? Do you feel it in the whole truck?? or only when your throttle up?? Make sure the drive shaft is true and inline. If that center support bearing is off just a little it will shake the van and only do it at certain speeds. Been there, done...

I went back to check my paperwork. The Allison became available in 2006 in Extended 3500 only. L80 was in the 2500. The 6.6 engine was and still is rated at 250 but can be re-programed. You will get better fuel mileage if up graded to a 325 -350 hp if you keep your foot out of it. .

I have owned a couple of those and they are good engines if you treat them right. Fuel mileage depends on the rear gear. If it's a 3.73 and you drive 62 -65 then you can expect at least 18-19 empty and about 17 loaded. The only thing I have against it with Allison transmission is the...

Lot of people wanting to know about super singles, load capacity verses fuel mileage, speed verses fuel economy. Read this link this morning, lots of good info. Bridgestone Commercial Truck Tires

So are you getting the Cargo Max?? And if you are, from Oh??
