      2001 F350 7.3 what to look for when buying used?

      Former 7.3 owner, great truck and great engine. A few other things that might be worth a quick look - not necessarily deal breakers, but at least you'll know up front. Check the oil pan for rust. Mine was showing signs of moderate rust, and I know of two others that had to replace the oil...

      lightning Pics

      Easy fix - get rid of the Nikon and get a Canon :D. It looks like you were just out of focus in the two shots you posted. The lights in the background look pretty soft. If I were setting that shot up, I would have focused on the treeline and lights. I focus on a distance object, or just...

      Pro Tips with Pat Rogers (via Panteao)

      Pat's tip to a student who identified themselves as an aspiring science fiction writer: "You should go check out AR15 dot com, there is a lot of science fiction writing that goes on over there."

      M4 reliability test

      http://www.bravocompanymfg.com/v/vspfiles/assets/images/filthy14_oct10.pdf Article on "Filthy 14", good memory cwood. Cleaning occurs when I get around to it, sometimes not for months. Quality tools should work even if they are dirty.

      Training with Reactive Targets

      Training with reactive targets can offer some very effective feedback on if what you are doing during static drills is going to hold up under higher stress situations. I've shot the balloon targets in one of Pat's classes, not the course Tinman posted, but one just like it at another location...

      MOA

      1 minute of angle is the same as saying 1/60 of a degree. If you were to draw a very long isosceles triangle, with the two long legs separated by 1 MOA, and extend the legs out to 100 yards, the base of the triangle will measure 1.047". It's convenient to say then, 1 MOA = 1" @ 100 yards, 2" @...

      Does anyone know of a shop near Goshen that will press u-joints out?

      This. Old, rusted 1-ton running gear sucks to get apart. My axle shaft u-joints basically laughed at my attempts to drive the cross out. Cut that baby out, heat until the plastic melts, and grab your biggest hammer.

      Eotech Reliability

      I've personally witnessed the following at various carbine classes while observing shooters with EOTechs: -(2x) Integral mount loosened up and the optic fell off the weapon during fire -(2x) Unable to attain and hold a zero. Other shooters attempted to do so, some of who I would never question...

      Welders: is there a difference?

      Are you possibly running solid wire and your buddy is running flux core?

      Ford 7.3 diesel tuners.

      Spartan specializes in the 6.4 and 6.7, they do very little with the 7.3. The general concensus among owners is that you'll be happier with a custom tuner over a generic box tuner, i.e the Edge, Superchips, etc. I'd start researching Power Hungry Performance, DP-Tuner, Tony Wildman, Bean's...

      Sears tools are junk now.

      I have an assortment of the standard Craftsmen ratchets, with the lever you flip on the back. None of them are original because they've all broken after time. I have one however, that to this day I can't find another one like it. It has a round handle, round head, with a rotary knob on the...

      Low-tec aiming aid 4 fast, automatic, and accurate aiming

      Are there any obscure, outdated, mosty irrelevant 100+ year old documents or manuals that in some warped way support this aid? I'd probably buy a dozen if there were. Kinda like the 17 year cicada, except a little more frequent.

      Six flags is having muslim family day.......

      Sadly, you are very correct. The extent to which they are willing to shred their integrity for more black ink just doesn't compute in my world.

      Six flags is having muslim family day.......

      Joe Williams summed up my thoughts on this subject in an earlier post. But let me add this. We as a country, especially various and numerous corporations, bend over backwards to appease religious and cultural minorities whenever they even hint at being offended. Occasionally for legitimate...

      s10 4x4 trouble

      Not your year and options, but may help you: On 1996 model S-10's w/ manual T-case, the actuator is a vacuum actuator located toward the front of the engine bay, accessible from under the hood. If the front axles aren't engaging, it usually means you have a bad actuator, or a vacuum leak...
