Before dropping the new throttle bodies in place, the FiTech crew put the car up on the hoist and welded in a 14mm threaded bung that comes with the kit into the exhaust just downstream of the header collector. This adapter can be clamped in place with a gasket, but it’s better to permanently weld it and ensure there are no leaks.
According to Automotive Fleet, GM/ Chevy informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that there was Base radio default in their pickup trucks. The base radio gives off warnings if the key is left in the ignition or if seat belts aren’t clipped on properly. It also warns you if the doors are left open. Without the base radio working correctly it would cause the trucks not to be in compliance with motor vehicle safety standards. The alert can prevent needless injuries, and theft of the vehicle in case a driver or a passenger forgets. Pickup trucks affected are the 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 and the 2005 Silverado HD. There were no deaths or injuries reported due to this defect but Chevy took it seriously and fixed it of no charge to the customers.
I think in at least some of the cases, detractors don’t like these active safety mechanisms because it forces them to admit that they aren’t as safe as they think they are. Every time the car beeps during a lane change, it’s a reminder that they didn’t use their signal like they should have. Every time the car beeps and applies the brakes when the car in front of them stops quickly, it reminds them that they were following too close.
You generally seem inclined towards a utopic “dogooder” mentality like in the past taking issue with people in the US being able to use the services of unlicensed mobile mechanics for affordable car repair, you’d rather see everyone in debt making payments, you know what’s good for them you claim. And again here you’re advocating for higher expenses forced upon others, but instead of the usual justification of “it’s for their own good,” you let the mask slip a bit and are saying it’s for your personal benefit of keeping your own kin safe. It’s kind of disturbing, and I’m frankly rather glad that we live in different countries.
According to trucks.com, the problem came up from an electrical software issue where warning signs would include an alert in the Driver Information Center and temporary disabling of the radio, stabilitrack, DIC, chimes, door-lock cycling, air-conditioning or cruise control.
With a low-compression, power-adder-ready crate engine from BluePrint Engines on hand we decide to up the power with a 6-71 blower from Weiand.
Everybody screws up at some point, no matter how careful or skilled they are. Do I know how to brake at the limit of adhesion? Decades of riding motorcycles have served me well in that regard. Do I have absolute confidence that I will do so perfectly every time and under all possible circumstances? No.
The peanut gallery likes to root for the perennial winner to lose. It’s human nature. Tom Brady has enemies. Louis Hamilton has enemies. The New York Yankees have enemies. And KTM has enemies. However, to choose any other brand as the 2019 winner would require the MXA test riders to ignore the superior brakes, bulletproof clutch, design innovations, light weight, wide powerband, adjustable suspension, sleek ergonomics and no-fuss handling. It’s no secret that it will cost you a lot of money to fix the flaws of the FC450, CRF450, YZ450F, KX450 and RM-Z450 to make them better overall bikes than the 2019 KTM 450SXF. If our friends asked us which 2019 450cc motocross bike they should buy, the KTM 450SXF would be our answer. Like it or not, the KTM 450SXF is the 2019 450 shootout winner. Full test of the 2019 KTM 450SXF.
“The addition of the new MTA v3 to our marine product program really completes our offering to the tug segment and provides a leaner, simpler and more efficient integrated solution to our customers,” said Jorgen Karlsson, Caterpillar Marine’s Tug and Salvage Segment manager.
Without question, weâd choose the 2.7-liter engine, which is available only on the âvolumeâ trim levels. Those are the standard LT, off-road-focused LT Trail Boss, and sporty RST. These count as midgrade trims, so they shouldnât be too expensive, at least if you stick to LT. If we needed to tow a lot of weight, weâd go with a V8 sized to meet our needs, and if the 5.3-liter had enough pull, the very affordable Custom trim would be appealing for a working truck. If you really need the grunt, the 6.2 with the 10-speed configuration is there for you, albeit only on the top LTZ and High Country trims, so talk to your credit union or look to the Silverado HD.
Noise levels have been reduced on the models and are now on average between 5 and 8dBA quieter than comparable generators. This is achieved, said Atlas Copco, by a combination of technologies, including a VSD motor-driven fan that adjusts the cooling flow to the specific requirements of the engine.
New features in the update for the AGC-4 and AGC200 genset controllers allow up to 32 gensets to be handled by one power plant. The update adds a new warm-up sequence after generator breaker synchronisation, which means power will remain at the lowest stage until a pre-set temperature or input is reached. This results in the generator running on a lower load until it has warmed up, bringing the benefits of lower wear and tear and reducing the time taken to reach optimal operating temperature.
