See that often too. Then people get mad when you tell them their new car needs a new engine at 40,000 miles. Its amazing that they are still running and some aren’t even making noise. They will come in saying check engine light it on, always related to the variable cam timing. Will be so sludges...

Looks like real peanuts to me but picture kind of blurry. Rodents will bring all kind of stuff in. And for some reason they love the taste of wiring insulation too. Can make a mess of a wiring harness overnight.

I also love when they get towed in for a no start after customer installed a battery. Pop the hood to find that apparently that little plastic cap they put over the terminals does not conduct electricity very well:D You wouldn’t believe how often that happens.

Peanuts? Maybe. Not very clear. Tis the season for rodents, they like to get cozy in a warm spot when it gets cold.

The other day when that car came in I was debating starting a thread about crazy things that those of us that work on things everyday see. I’ve been working in the car dealer world for 16 years since I was 16. You never know what is going to come rolling through the door. Especially when...

After the guy got irate on the phone because we wouldn’t tell him where the magic master reset button was on the car and saying he is not having the car towed 2 hrs so we can charge him to press this magic button for him he finally does have the car towed. Then shows up later in the day to check...

Lugbolt, don’t you love when people work on things they shouldn’t. Here’s an easy one, car towed in wouldn’t start, they said it’s not the battery,they just put a new one in it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I***8217;m with you on this,black smoke means it***8217;s burning and not enough air, white smoke would be not enough heat whether that be lack of glow plug or lack of compression. Being it died while running could it be as simple as the air filter plugged up or collapsed?

Can’t help with where to get the plugs but if you use loctite be sure to use blue, blue locktite is a thread sealer as well,red loctite is not.

Definitely don’t try that now days with the new common rail systems, like troverman said too. High pressure fuel pump failure is not cheap I promise. Can’t attest for gm but a 6.7 hp pump failure is about $8,000, 6.4 failure is around $10,000, i don’t mind them since I’m not paying the bill,they...

If the hat cost $20k I can imagine what the sweatshirt cost!! :eek:

What are you looking to use them for? And if both sides are on the same fuse then it would be 5 amps combined, 5 amps seems pretty low for a light circuit.

You won’t ever get all the fluid out of the system at one time,if you really want it out of the hard lines and the pump you could take them off,blow the lines out and take the pump apart and clean it,pump would have minimal fluid in it anyways. Just like changing oil in your truck,you don’t ever...

Probably not relavent to this situation if it don’t have any hydraulic pressure,but I ripped the p/s return line off mine a couple weeks ago,got it back together and topped off this weekend,had no power steering but loader and 3pt still worked, I picked the front end off the ground with the...

Send me some of that wing sauce please lol.

Filled the hydraulic fluid back up and bled the power steering system after I ripped the hose off last weekend. Gave it a simple green bath to clean up the mess of hydraulic fluid that was sprayed all over. Greased it all up while I was at it. Then the kids wanted to go for a ride.

And don’t forget about the food! Speaking of that crawfish season is just around the corner;)

I was born and raised in central Illinois, took a job in Wisconsin,spent two years there and said the hell with this, easier to do when your young, worst part though is being so far away from family, especially since my parents don’t get to see their grandkids growing up as much as they would...
