Make It Better: 4L60E Swap For 1967–1972 Chevrolet C10s | Speed Sensor Chevrolet

A week earlier, the customer had brought in his 1990 Nissan pickup because the clutch pedal was going all the way to the floor and would not come up.

The 2019 Silverado joins the 2019 Ram 1500, which recently got a complete overhaul, and the 2018 Ford F-150, which recently benefitted from a mid-cycle update. The Silverado will also compete against the aging Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan models, which were last refreshed in 2014 and 2016, respectively.

The MXA test riders didn’t mind riding the 2019 Suzuki RM-Z450, but not a single test rider would choose to race it. It is the heaviest, slowest and twitchiest bike on the track. It makes the least horsepower, has a marginal clutch and the worst rear shock—even its kickstarter design has flaws (it is way to high). The best thing about the 2019 RM-Z450 is the way the power is delivered. It is spot-on in the middle. It makes the meager output much more effective and usable than the numbers would predict. As a budget racer, it features the lowest out-the-door price of all the 2019 450s. Conversely, it has the lowest resale value.

People resent being told by a nanny government that they can’t buy a cheap car. In practical terms too, it’s unnecessary to mandate these features which insurance companies, economies of scale, and free markets would make ubiquitous anyway.

We checked to see if there was a leak from the clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder, but there were no external leaks. We then bled the clutch system (master cylinder, slave cylinder and clutch damper) to see if there was air in the system. There was a small amount of air in the system, but after bleeding it out, the clutch was still malfunctioning.

For the enthusiasts, the drive is part of the fun of the journey. For the average person not into cars (75%?), the drive is the drudgery of the journey. Might as well check the interwebs, the car will beep if something is wrong.

We then surmised that the seals in the master cylinder and slave cylinder were worn and should be replaced. We replaced both components and bled and adjusted the pedal. This solved the problem, and we sent our customer on his way.

here is my offer: if car collides and system is on – automaker pays repairs. If system is off – the driver

Competition in the truck market is brutal because customers want it all: Power, affordability, handling, and interior refinements. From what we saw at the top-secret proving grounds this week, Chevy’s going to bring the goods to compete head-to-head with Ford’s 2.7-liter EcoBoost and Ram’s 5.7-liter HEMI, with or without its mild hybrid helper system. With improved driving dynamics and advanced engine tech, 2019 is going to be a great year for trucks generally, and for the new Chevy Silverado in particular.

I don’t think anyone hates ABS or traction control, stability control or whatever. As others have mentioned, even good and attentive drivers make errors in judgement and its nice to have the system in the background. Just give me the ability to turn off (or turn down) the system. Except ABS. As anyone who’s dealt with FWD and traction control in the snow, sometimes the system is a hindrance.

Adaptive cruise control is an advanced system that automatically adjusts the speed of a car to maintain a safer distance from the preceding vehicles. The system can increase or decrease the car’s speed in order to maintain a safer distance.

Motocross Action is a true-to-life motorcycle magazine. Just as Bonnie and Clyde robbed banks, the MXA wrecking crew tests bikes. We test over 75 motocross bikes a year. It is a full-time job. The sheer number of machines we ride has taught us to take a straightforward approach to racing performance. And, make no mistake about it, we test by racing. What follows is a compendium of facts about the class of 2019.
