Us Lake Wobegone types, on the other hand — every one of us an above-average driver — can just turn ’em off.

Joel Rode’s Hot Rod Specialties shop in Upland, California, performed the new engine installation along with the FiTech system. With everything bolted in place, we met the ’56 at Westech Performance Group for a final rundown and tune on the chassis dyno. Because of some transmission issues they weren’t able to perform a full power run but, using the Superflow electric dyno, they were able to do some final highway cruise air/fuel ratio tuning by setting a given speed that allows the dyno operator to manipulate various throttle settings while maintaining a given speed. This is something only a load-based dyno like the Superflow can perform.

My psychologist explained to me that often (most?) times, anger directed towards external things is due to internal problems. It’s caused when you are forced to see yourself in a less than positive way.

“Cummins engineers have done significant testing of this system to ensure the same dependability, quality and reliability customers have come to expect from our brand,” explained Jim Schacht, executive director, Cummins Global Marine Business. “With more than 10 years of experience applying SCR to Cummins engines in our on-highway and industrial segments, vessel operators can rest assured they have a great product powering their ship.”

Seems there is some confusion interpreting Scarecrow’s post. He’s saying that when technology benefits extend to other people beyond the purchaser, the government may need to apply pressure, since the purchaser isn’t as willing to spend money for the benefit of other people. This is in contrast to seatbelts and airbags, which are for the benefit of the purchaser; in that case the government doesn’t need to prod the purchaser — it’s a personal expense for personal benefit that the individual can weight for himself or herself.

" Truck is a 2014 F150 5.0V8 with ~50K miles. While vehicle was in motion at highway speeds ~65mph, brake fluid warning light comes on. I test the brakes by gently depressing the brake pedal, but pedal continues with no resistance nearly to the floor. Brakes are almost completely ineffective and would have zero ability to stop the vehicle in an emergency situation. I throw on the hazard lights and cut to the shoulder and have to manually downshift the transmission to slow the vehicle. Situation could have been much more serious as I was in moderate traffic. I popped the hood and immediately notice the brake master cylinder reservoir is completely empty. After inspecting all brake lines front and rear and checking all bleeder screws are closed, no visual leaks are present. As I was 100 miles from home driving my wife and child home at night, I had someone bring me some brake fluid to top off the reservoir. After filling the reservoir and bleeding the front brakes, brakes seem to stay tight. I drive ~10 miles and the brake fluid warning light flashes again at highway speeds. Pull over again and notice zero fluid again. Visually inspect all lines, master cylinder, booster, etc., no evidence of leaks. Top off the reservoir to limp the vehicle to a safer location. Notice the engine starting to sputter and fluid completely gone in another ~10 miles. Obviously the master cylinder has failed and is leaking into the booster which is affecting the vacuum in the booster. These are the exact same symptons listed in safety recall notice 16S24/ NHTSA recall 16V-345, however this does not cover 5.0 V8 motors only 3.5L ecoboost despite the same brake components being used. So far over a quarter million trucks have been recalled. Apparently newer 2015/16 F150S are experiencing similiar issues as well evidence of a large defect in newer model F150 braking components." – Oct 7, 2017

Many of the receipts show what type of fluid was used, where the repair was done, and what vehicle behavior prompted the garage visit in the first place. Plus the papers show the vehicle’s odometer reading, giving a good idea of how much the Jeep has been driven over time. Here’s a plot I made showing just that:

Harley-Davidson said Tuesday it’s recalling about 238,300 motorcycles, worldwide, for a clutch problem — the fourth recall for a clutch issue in five years.

This is the section where we tell you where the six most popular 450cc four-stroke motocross bikes rank on the MXA test riders scale. You won’t hurt our feelings if you buy the fourth, fifth,sxith or 22nd bike on the list—but read each analysis before plunking down your cash.

The water pump leaking is just another problem that the Chevy Silverado 1500 has had. The water pump is a very important part for your car and helps pumps coolant through your engine and back to the radiator to be cooled off. Signs of a leak can be fluid under your car dripping while on or off, overheating and your car smoking from under the hood. If the water pump fails it can also lead to melting nearby plastic components causing a fire or causing your engine to completely fail. According to Cars, Chevy will fix this issue for Silverado owners.

SlowMyke, it’s the blind leading the blind. I still remember my driving instructor telling me to adjust my mirrors until I can just see the car. Obviously not correct, but no one I knew knew differently at the time.
