Re: Instrument Panel LED light Bulbs - Any Available?

Yes, I replaced all of mine and I am pretty sure that I got them from superbrightleds.com.

Re: Rotella users: T4 or T6?

I have always used T4 as recommended by the previous owner who was a Porsche tech at one time working on a lot of air cooled engines. I've got nothing else.

Re: 24v Warn winch fully restored!

That looks great! I have done a similar install. Perhaps we should start a Vince Winch picture thread.

General Components Bison 2000A heater

Is anybody familiar with this Bison 2000A heater? It appears to be a Webasto Air Top 2000 look alike out of Canada. Parts also appear to be interchangeable. Given the rise in Webasto prices, it is about half of that at $649 ( Amazon and other truck accessory suppliers). It is available in gasoline (...

Re: Hard starting hot

What is the interval between starts? Long enough for the fuel to evaporate in the bowl in hot weather? Are you using the "choke" in hot weather; full? half? There are many variables.

Re: Pinzi SSI

This is disappointing but I guess I understand. Once a pinz ssi user, there is no going back. I hope mine functions for a long time in the face of the inability to replace or repair. As for the rest of my Pinz, I expect it to do well for quite some time.

Re: Pay monthy for your car's options??

The "connected" vehicle has led to this. It has been present for a while and now the manufacturers have figured out a way to make a buck. A couple years ago I was surprised when I received an email from my Jeep dealer telling me my tire pressure was low. I considered it an invasion of priv...

Re: Why do you read this forum?

It looks like another year has passed since I have hit the donate button and will gladly do it again. The forum has been a bit slow lately. Maybe all of our trucks are fixed. (uh no!). Maybe, as Andre has mentioned, other social media platforms are being used more. (hope not, I don't do either.) Reg...

Re: Won’t crank, point me in direction

I apologize for perhaps a little off topic. Although I agree with the rest of the post, this "if you'd store them on the ground that is the worst place possible as the charge will drain" may have been true a long time ago with inferior battery cases but probably does not apply to current b...
