I was noticing a slight hesitation and the computer threw an oxygen sensor code. Thanks to you and Billg I avoided a roadside repair. I replaced all 6 coil pack boots for $50 and only broke one clip. No more hesitation or oxy codes.

Another benefit to extending the intake duct and running it vertically is less chance of sucking up dust and larger debris that may be on the floor. . .

I have the Digi-Max D1000 controller mounted on the wall above my bed, about 40" above the floor. I was under the impression that the Digi-Max was a thermostat but found out different my first winter. When the outside temperature was near 0º or lower the inside temperature would reach 90º and...

Except the thermostat is in the unit which is mounted on the floor; the cold, uninsulated floor.

Wow, Big Al! Long time no post. Good to hear from you and hope all is well. I don't know if I'm The Man, but I'm still hanging in there. As for finding a home at the big cat, I guess its a place to hang my wheel chock. I can't believe I've been here two years longer than at Con-Way Now...

A few years ago Medtronic Inc., a large medical device company moved their corporate headquarters from Minnesota to Ireland to benefit from lower corporate taxes. Which is better for this country; to have large corporations pay a 21% rate or move overseas and pay nothing?

I did the propane Buddy thing for years. It was a cheap source of heat but also a PIA. I never slept with it running for fear of waking up dead. Spent many a night in sub-zero temperatures curled up inside a down sleeping bag which was inside a large Cabelas sleeping bag. In the morning I...

Fixed it for you. .

My sympathies to you, your children and grandchildren. Take care.

Year end fuel totals for 2017. .

You're such a techie. I even heard you have an iPhone SE.

A few years ago I bought four , 2" ratchet straps from Lodi Metals. 2 at 16' and 2 at 20' with 24" fixed ends. I like the ability to custom order the fixed end length. My only complaint is the web material is thinner and less stiff than my old Kinedyne straps. The Lodi Metal straps have a...

Tim, do you have the limited slip differential?

Let's get the facts? You started this thread with a picture of a Frito Lay delivery van wanting to know the box length and if it would be required to stop at scales. All we can do is speculate. If you aren't going to use this van for expedite, what will you use it for? If you plan on hauling...

If bigger is better and you want some revs, get your greasy paws on a Detroit 6V92. It goes exceptionally well with an old Fuller Road Ranger.

It is simple! It seems you can't grasp the fact that about the only commonality with these two vans is size. One is used in OTR expedite and the other is a fleet spec'd city delivery van. One is built on an SRW chassis and the other on a DRW chassis. If you really want to know why Steve's...

Great app! Where I'm at knowledge is power and power is considered a dangerous thing. Especially in the hands of cargo van drivers. I used to have a handle on steady customers and where freight originated. Now it seems like most of my carrier's customers are 3PLs and freight is hit and...

300 lbs. in an expediting cargo van is a big difference. Also there could be a difference in components like brakes etc.
