Project Corn Star: Tuning An LS For Boost With HP Tuners | Speed Sensor Chevrolet

A: We have never heard this. In our opinion, E85 burns cleaner and is less likely to contaminate the oil than E10 or pure gasoline. Besides, your engine was built to accept E85 fuel. You didn’t provide the make or year of your car, but your vehicle probably has a maintenance reminder system. Change the oil when it tells you to do so. Consult your owner’s manual.

Then there’s this $971 service from 2005 that included replacing the steering box and drag link, and—alarmingly—mentions that the side gears in one of the differentials is “very loose,” but does not mention a repair. Here’s to hoping that’s the front axle, since it’s the one I’ll have to replace anyway due to the crash:

Now you’re telling me the car is going jam on the brakes, or yank the steering wheel every time it beeps? No GD way, I’d set fire to it and take the insurance check after Day 1.

The truck is also said to have issues with updated software. With this kind of risk that came with the truck, if you can’t go for other trucks within the same class then you would rather check if the systems have been updated.

This is, I am sure, not likely to be a popular opinion, but so be it. I’d rather be sharing the road with grandpa driving a car that will warn him when he strays out of his lane or that will brake for him if he doesn’t see the deer or child in the road. It will make things safer, period.

I know. I assume the post is an attempted justification because the real reason can’t be mentioned.

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

It sounds great, doesn’t it? Guess what? No matter what level rider you are, the clutch won’t stand the test of time. Stiffer springs will help, but the real fix is a complete Hinson or Rekluse clutch (which will cost around a grand). The rigid aluminum chassis is very busy under the load of the added horsepower. The forks are mediocre. Finding good balance between the front and rear can become a full-time job, especially as the track changes over the course of a day. The 2017–2019 chassis is very hard to find a comfortable setting on. This has a lot to do with the Honda engineers’ selection of the Showa fork valving, chassis rigidity, shock linkage rising rate, borderline front-end geometry and stinkbug stance. The CRF450 is fun, fast and exciting. It is heavy at 238 pounds but feels light in the air. On the downside, control is hard to come by on a bike that is loose on exit, prone to breaking the rear loose on corner exit and needs 108mm of race sag (and the forks slid down in the clamps) to bring it into balance. Full test of the 2019 Honda CRF450.

(6) Honda CRF450. These forks are decent for light and slow riders and work well on some tracks, but the forks ride low in their stroke, giving up the easy travel to sit on a harsh spot. The rigidity of the frame and stinkbug stance aren’t easy problems to solve. We slapped last year’s 2018 CRF450 Showa forks on our 2019 machine. This helped balance out the chassis and brought the forks up in the stroke so they weren’t riding in the harsh spot as much. Even though the forks are the same internally, Honda used a fork oil that has less stiction. 

The key to any engine’s proper performance is a combination of timing and fuel. Candia discovered the initial timing had been incorrectly set with the vacuum advance connected to the full-time manifold outlet, which put the timing way off at idle. He reset the initial at 18 degrees BTDC. The engine wanted more but that would have put the total beyond 36 degrees.

Guess what Ken Roczen did to his works Honda CRF450 during the AMA Nationals? He had Honda remove the electric starter motor, battery, starter gear sets and wiring harness to save 5 pounds.
