Colinb17's kinda sorta build thread

My bad, I didn't know how to properly spell it. And yeah it is to hold the flange part of the shaft to his lathe looking machine while he welds the new tube in and balances it. That way it stays properly indexed and perfectly square during the welding/balancing part.

 

i'm sure they just use sockets or a u-joint press like everyone else. the die is for vvvvv

 

I saw that. Like I said, all them fancy tools and such.

 

So this is what I just ordered. Going to mount it in the center console under the A/C controls

 

If you don't mind me asking in your thread. If so, i can delete this. But i figured lots of your people have probably used it.

SEAFOAM good, bad, indifferent? And how have people used it? Fuel tank, intake, crankcase? And if in the crankcase, how long did you wait to do an oil change afterwards?

Thanks Colin.

 

I had the same problem last fall when I was in Louisville on the way home from a run trying to get some driveshaft work done.

The guy said he didn't have a way of mounting it in the lathe, so I went out to the truck and got a spare tcase output flange for him to use. You should have seen the look on his face! Priceless.

 

Got a link??

 

With a little googling, I'm guessing this one:

yep thats the one and the camera is the same one that colin is using on his front and rear. I will only be running one......for now

 

say no to seafoam kids!

what are you trying to do, just clean out the system? if so, redline makes an additive that you proportionally mix into the fuel tank. Locuriorunner did some tests on the stuff and highly recommends it. Torspd introduced me to it after that. he can explain the stuff further, and in more detail than I can, so i'll let him see this and hopefully comment. Paging Mark

 

Here! herp derp

 

Well fuck-a-doodle-do, there's too many or you!

paging other mark
however, you're welcome to stay. steel is shit, UHMW FTMFW

 

I don't know shit, I will leave it to the engineers

 

I can see why people get away from the 5mm air line that ARB supplies. Finding fittings for it sucks!

 

TOO LATE!!!!

Oh well. I ran it yesterday at work. You took way to long to respond. I don't care if you have a fancy job that demands your attention, us TW peeps need info darn it!

I split the bottle in thirds. 1/3 in each: gas tank, intake (fogged), and crankcase. Planning on changing the oil within the next 2 weeks or so.

 

I originally bought a new kit with a thicker hose but it was short. I ended up getting one of Becky's spares, and went to swagelok here in la porte and bought new 1/8" fittings.. for a discount of course

 

and then after you find fittings, you discover that after a few heat cycles, or too much continual bending and un bending, that you crack the damn things.

i sowy mastah

give this a shot instead next time. much healthier.
