Re: 6.0L Oil Pump Failure X 2
Thanks for all the quick replies. It sounds like you agree that the mixing of the coolants and old flat plate heat exchanger are a source of the issues. I will see what needs to be done to get back...

Re: 6.0L Oil Pump Failure X 2

Re: 6.0L Oil Pump Failure X 2
Thanks. I will look into the mystery lines. What is that flat plate heat exchanger? I will also look into the Bi-Pass oil filter.

Re: Hi Lift jack and mounting
I have to agree with mounting the jack in an easily accessible location because when you need it you usually need it now and in good working order. I have used the 60" Hi-Lift for tire changes, a...

Re: Re-finishing the PH Top (Raptor Liner)

Re: Shifting into four wheel drive
I typically don't shift into 4WD while moving. Just an old habit from earlier non-synchro gears on my '69 Bobtail. My thoughts are if there is grinding while things match up you are wearing the...

Re: Propane furnace - how noisy are they?
+1 on the noise waking me up when it cycles on. Its not overly loud just a sudden click that seems loud in the dead of night. During the evening I don't really notice it.
