MXA MOTOCROSS RACE TEST: 2018 HUSQVARNA FC250 | High Quality Fuel Injection Nozzle

The instrument cluster displays an overhead silhouette of the truck with a series of bars, which bars illuminate and change color from yellow, to amber, and then ultimately to red along with shortening intervals of beeps to alert the driver to approaching objects or walls before any contact is made. The system is designed specifically for larger objects (other vehicles, walls, parking blocks, etc) and not for pedestrians or children.

As I sat contemplating what I was going to write about, a longtime customer walked through the door and asked me if I could take a look at his clutch pedal.

The fully electric Manitou MT 1135 telehandler has a 360-volt vehicle power supply and an 80-horsepower (60 kilowatt) electric motor with a 30 kilowatt-hour battery, all driven by a Deutz TCD 3.6 liter engine. For the hybrid E-Deutz drive, the company was able to replace the 3.6-liter engine with a Deutz TCD 2.2 liter engine which generates 73 hp (55 kW) boosted by a 26-hp (20 kW) electric motor and 48-volt system in a Manitou MT 1335 telehandler

We aren’t conspiracy theorists, but we have to wonder if KTM/Husqvarna owner Stefan Pierer’s engineers aren’t handicapping the Husqvarna FC450 so it doesn’t perform better than the KTM 450SXF. If we were in Stefan Pierer shoes, we’d have the Husqvarna engineers on the hot seat explaining the mysteries of the choked-up airbox, faulty Magura component and ice-cream-cone restrictor. This is a great bike if you drill out the airbox, install a Brembo slave piston and add a slip-on muffler (or even borrow a restrictor-less FC250 muffler). Full test of the 2019 Husqvarna FC450.

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.

‘C. Refuse to acknowledge that through insurance and public funds we all pay a share of the cost of putting these freedom lovers back together after they fly through their windshield.’ Cute. Something only you have suggested as the only motivating reason to question the cost and effectiveness of trying to wring out that last 0.000005% out of passive safety devices.

If an older vehicle is safely operational (brakes, tires, suspension, lights, etc) but doesn’t have any of the new active systems, or say even stability or traction control, would it past muster to drive alongside your children on the road? I live in Indiana (no inspections of any kind) and see some really scary stuff as far as tires down down to cords, detached leaf springs on the highway, etc. I’m no more a fan of THAT kind of unsafe car than you are. Would I force a low income person driving an older car with a Check engine light off the road? No. Would I force operationally safe older cars that lack these active safety systems off the road? Absolutely not.

I would love a backup camera. In so many cars of this era it’s very hard to see out the back window, including my ’08 Civic. The general lack of visibility drives me nuts. I’d rather instead of various cameras and warnings, that the feds would mandate visibility. That would make driving more of a pleasure, as well as increasing safety.

Sometimes when the car was in park and the parking brake wasn’t used, the gear would slip into neutral and start rolling.

For initial EFI operation, FiTech recommends running the engine with its existing ignition system for ignition timing. Then, once the fuel side tuning has been finalized, then if the owner prefers, ignition control can be converted to the FiTech. This is a good plan because it minimizes the number of potential errors that could occur. That’s the next step for Buck’s ’56 but we just couldn’t wait so that will come later. No drama is anticipated.

Any internal combustion engine in which the air is compressed to a temperature high enough to ignite the diesel engine, the combustion and the expansion of the diesel fuel being injected into the cylinder which actuates the piston. It can convert the chemical energy stored in the fuel into mechanical energy to power cargo trucks, large tractors, locomotives and ships. A limited number of cars are also diesel generators and there are also some electric generator sets.
