Is Harley-Davidson About to Be Hit by a Major Recall? — The Motley Fool | Fuel Injection/Nozzle

According to Chevrolet, the trucks that seem to be affected are in what’s known as the salt belt states. The salt belt states include New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Maryland, New Hampshire, West Virginia, Washington DC, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Maine, Minnesota, Vermont, North Dakota, and Wisconsin. This is where the roads are salted during winter months.

But remember, it’s just a patent. It may not go anywhere. For now, it’s an interesting piece of tech and I’m eager to see if GM does anything with it.

This project began before FiTech finalized its fuel tank lineup so this is a larger, stainless steel unit. The current system for the Tri-Five Chevys employs a more affordable stamped steel tank and the FiTech Hyper-Fuel in-tank pump. This particular pump is capable of 340 liters-per-hour, which is more than enough to supply fuel to the big-block.

I became a GTI Protectionist. I bought a 4WD beater to daily drive since I quickly knew that I bought a unicorn that will only get rarer. My GTI does not see rain or snow.

I agree with Sajeev’s three reasons. Mandated safety equipment of all kinds has made new cars less affordable for many people which tends to keep more older and less-safe cars on the road for longer.

I love GM and I buy mostly GM products, but sometimes I question their speed and intelligence. Glad to see they are finally listening to owners in some ways, but it’s been since 2015 with almost no changes! They still haven’t moved the (expletive) 4×4 knob, or created an indicator on the dash or DIC that shows your drive mode in non-zr2 trucks! (Something my 1987 Jeep has) I really hope they make interior updates such as this for the 2020 trucks, it was clear someone who has never used a 4×4 truck designed the dial location from their desk and not in the real world. The amount of time’s I’ve had to feel for the switch into 4×4 in a quick moment and turned my headlights off, drives me insane. Nor does my wife (who rarely drives my truck) have the time to look below the steering wheel (eyes off the road!) and figure out which way to turn the knob) Ok rant off…

Combining the factory speedometer in your early muscle car with a 4L60E also requires additional assistance. The 4L60E generates only an electronic vehicle speed output (vehicle speed sensor – VSS), but there are various ways to make this work. The simplest is to use an electronic speedometer that either uses GPS for input to convert the VSS transmission signal to the speedo.

• 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.

Let’s face it: This annoying, instrusive and unfinished technology is really a way to enable a generation of drivers who cannot or will not look up from their phones. The automakers like it because they have plans for you to be focusing your attention on offers made to you via your dashboard acreen while they sell your personal information to third parties.

The main thing you’ll notice about the 2019 Silverado is that it’s whisper-quiet inside when you’re driving. It’s not just quiet for a truck; it’s the kind of quiet cabin luxury automakers strive for and generally don’t achieve. Even on rough pavement, you have to turn everything off and listen carefully to hear noise from the tires. There are a few features to thank for that. First, the frame and the suspension have been updated for a smoother ride, plus all the engine mounts are hydraulic. Chevrolet also made new cab mounts. Mission accomplished.

A few days later my customer stopped in and said the pedal was working but did not feel like it did before. Before he was done talking, I already knew how to solve his problem. I have a tremendously capable staff, yet I knew this was a job for me. These days I mostly only work on cars with the aid of a computer, but every once in a while we encounter a situation that needs my “ancient” experience.
