G-Body Hydramax Clutch KitThis clutch kit from American Powertrain is a true, bolt-on, hydraulic clutch conversion for 1977–1988 GM G-body vehicles. The G-body firewall is not known for its strength to adequately support the extra force needed to engage a hydraulic clutch, nor is it very ergonomic. The powdercoated and laser-cut mounting bracket for the clutch master cylinder uses the factory brake master cylinder mounting location to ensure maximum strength. A Wilwood 3/4-inch bore master cylinder is included in the kit with the Hydramax release bearing that works with the T5, TKO, T56/Magnum transmissions and seamlessly works with American Powertrain’s G-body clutch pedal set. Price: $538–$750, depending on applicationAmerican Powertrain 931.646.4836americanpowertrain.com
" The contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. While driving approximately 70 mph, the low brake fluid sensor suddenly illuminated. Moments later, while attempting to stop the vehicle, the brake pedal extended to the floorboard and the vehicle would not immediately stop. The driver used the emergency brake to reduce the speed and stop the vehicle. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the brake fluid reservoir was empty; however, there was no evidence of brake fluid leaking. After refilling the reservoir with fluid, the brakes appeared to work momentarily before the failure recurred. The cause of the failure was not diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact was informed that the VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 16V345000 (service brakes). The contact stated that the vehicle experienced the same failure listed in the recall. The local dealer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 55,000."
In addition to the major items, it’s the little basic maintenance services that give me high hopes for this XJ. The previous owner took this Jeep in and got its 12,000 mile service done in late 1991.
(4) Kawasaki KX450. With the Kawasaki becoming the first Japanese-built motocross bike to update to hydraulics, we thought our KX450 clutch issues would be behind us. Not so. Our KX450 clutch squealed and faded, not because of the hydraulics but in spite of them. The hydraulics did not fix the shortcomings of the KX clutch. We not only replaced the clutch plates at abbreviated intervals but had to install stiffer clutch springs and remove the judder spring system to get full bite.
2. The ride-by-wire throttle on the 2019 Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE has a mode for every situation. Owners will be able to explore six modes— Road, Sport, Off-Road, Off-Road Pro, Rain, and a custom Rider mode. The five preset modes adjust the throttle mapping, ABS, and traction control intrusion, depending on the given mode. Off-Road mode disables ABS in the rear, and uses a trail-specific TC level. Off-Road Pro disables all aids. The Rider mode allows you to run any throttle map and any level of rider aids, including off.
• High-speed transit and light towing mode can be operated on full power with the main engines powering thruster and electrical load from the gen-sets.
Volvo Construction Equipment has unveiled its new range of Volvo-branded rigid haulers to customers and dealers
This is the best WP shock that we have ever ridden with. We set the race sag at 105mm and went in on the high-speed compression and rebound. We were impressed.
Additionally Company Basic Information, Manufacturing Base and Competitors list is being provided for each listed manufacturers
And though there are some components whose health you can easily check (for example, a compression test can be a good indicator of engine health), service records are the most useful bits of information to determine how a car has been cared for over time. Plus, they can help you out when diagnosing a fault. Knowing when certain components were replaced is a godsend.
The SCR system is fully serviceable, meaning the catalysts can be removed without the need for new or special tools and easily replaced when needed, Cummins said. Catalyst life is expected to match the engine life to overhaul in an effort to minimize downtime. In addition to the serviceability of the SCR system, the Vanadia-based catalyst is capable of tolerating up to 5000 ppm sulfur fuel, which allows customers to continue to use the same quality fuel they have always used with Cummins products.
But with an EPA-rated 150 miles of range, the Leaf is now outclassed by the likes of the Chevrolet Bolt EV, Tesla Model 3, and upcoming Hyundai Kona EV. So Nissan is working on a longer-range version with an even larger battery pack. Charging-station manufacturers will have to match the pace of developments like this in order to avoid obsolescence.
