    Top speed / tire size

    captain rpms 813 on 1400s goes 72 mph on the highway empty. we clocked it with a pickup truck riding next to it. these speeds are with no load, nhc250 isnt really enough power for a loaded 5 ton or one with a trailer when it comes to highway speeds

    M35A stalling

    now that i think of it, this fording cap was probably part of a fording kit and not part of factory trucks. my truck at one time did have a fording kit which was pirated off :cry: and the hammer heads who got it prolly forgot the fuel cap

    M35A stalling

    yes, some trucks have it and some dont. my one m35 has a cap that says non vented and my other trucks cap says somthing like vented open normal operation and closed fording vapor lock. the little valve is on the bottom of the cap. you just twist it and go swimmin lol

    M35A stalling

    make sure the fording valve on the fuel cap isnt in the fording position. might not be venting causing vapor locking

    Winch Shear Pins

    the pin blowing out wont damage the universal. thats why the pin is there to begin with. the shaft will spin all day long under no load once the pin blows .

    Winch Shear Pins

    i use snatch blocks and alot of extra cable and i dont break pins. the amount of cable on the drum has alot to do with the strenght of the pull before the pin breaks. a winch with 200ft of cable on it wont pull much when the line is only 10 feet out. it will pull its capacity or more when there...

    Injector pump????

    both my trucks dont idle when cold. they dies. i shouldnt even say when its cold, more like when first started. i turn the throttle out to make it stay at 1,000rpm for about 5 min to let the turbo warm up then rev on it a little bit and its good to go with the throttle all the way closed and...

    Injector pump????

    my truck dies out without having the throttle pulled a little bit but only when i start it when its been sitting. once it let it run 5 minutes or so i rev it to about 2500 really quick and then i can shut the throttle and its fine.
