With a proper cross-flow head on it, it would open up the top-end of the engine rpm band by orders of magnitude. You'd still get the torque...
Cost, and packaging. Pure and simple. Has NOTHING to do with power and/or torque as other engines are often better than V8's in that regard....
Just traded my '13 Silverado. It served me well, but after ten years of ownership, I don't think I'll be looking buy another '07-'13 Silverado.
First year is ok IF buying used and the history on whatever vehicle/engine is established. Many of the more expensive issues take at least 3...
To add to what Eggshooterist said: Oil analysis only makes sense when the cost of any downtime caused by a failure exceeds the cost of multiple...
Drain plugs on small mowers are more aggravation than they are worth. Vacuum solutions for changing the oil are cheap, faster, and no mess....
Very little on the 025 would be usable on the 026 as they are completely different saws. Very few 025s see new engine parts since they are...
How are you connecting the jump pack to it? Using the battery terminals for both connections? Or negative/ground to the frame/engine?
HEAVY beast those are. We had a 2-135 White farm tractor powered by one of those. Maybe a bit too much for a Jeep, but a PowerWagon or old...
Saw that the other day! Rear-biased AWD, and the engine is facing the correct direction!
Oh, well before COVID for sure. This would have been pre-2010, but I was still in touch up through 2017 when I moved south. Support was...
We're seeing a little bit of a renaissance for the inline 6 lately. New Stellantis/Chrysler Hurricane engine, GM's 3.0L Duramax, BMW builds a...
For future knowledge, Stihl's parts distribution is actually pretty good. If one of the regional distributors has a part that's needed elsewhere,...
This wouldn't be all that different than a roll-back (flatbed wrecker) setup. Just a hydraulic power unit run off the transmission PTO. Is the...
That's going to be one heck of an inverter (for an automotive application) and most alternators aren't going to have the output necessary to run a...
Thank you all!!!
The impellers are typically threaded onto the end of the crank.
Lovable, fuel-slobbering, oil vapor spewing, .... pigs. Nothing like the clatter and cloud of smoke they make when coming to life.
I wouldn't put too much stock in that 10HP rating if it's a flat-head SnowKing. It should run the 16GPM pump just fine but so would a 270+cc OHV...
The "old" way was to gently wash the filter in something to remove the oil in the flocking/fleece material and then spilt the plastic housings,...
