your right. someone earlier in the post was talking about removing the 1-11/16 axle nut to take off the hub-bearing assemble from the axle shaft. that is what i was saying doesnt need to be removed if your just going to replace the u-joint. sorry if ive been giving you info you already know. .

having spent 10 years working with exhaust systems engineers with arvin industries i can say based on what i learned from them youre full of it. the only exhaust systems with definite negative pressure at the tips belong to engines with high overlap cams or burnt valves. not to mention the vacuum effect and its duration are still insufficient to suck up more than a couple ounces of water and no farther than the first upward turn of the pipes. -- budd cochran john 316-17 ephesians 28-9 romans 323 623 our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. it is wholly inadequate for the government of any other. john adams on 14 sep 2006 104850 -0700 fp@odonnelldrg.com wrote i have a 2004 durango hemi and a 2004 ram 1500 hemi. when the tailpipe goes under water both vehicles start to blow steam and the engine light comes on. last week just after leaving the engine runnig while i loaded the boat - the valves started knocking really loud and now i have a hefty repair bill to reinstall new valve lifters. does anyone have any ideas why none of my other trucks have ever had this problem. you did not state is the exhaust was stock or not but i have a theory here as to what likely may have happened. when your engine idles there is actaully a negative pulse several times a second in the exhaust system due to low flow and a combination of sonic wave travel and the rapid cooling of the exhaust gas. when you placed tailpipe in the water it started to ingest a little water during the negative pulses and it worked its way up into the system further which further cooled the pipes and gas and increased the draw of water into system and it may have gotten into engine itself. if you have a dual exhaust it would actual tend to be more prone to this yet because the quicker expansion and cooling of gas at a idle and stronger negative pressure pulses. expensive lesson for sure. if you want to avoid this in future keep tail pipes out of water and place a restrictor in pipes durring this time so the a higher pressure is maintained during idle cycle which reduce the negative pulse to zero. if you have duals go back to a stock exhaust. ----------------- thesnoman.com -- posted via a free usenet account from http//www.tera.com .

the guy has a point there are negative pressure impulses thats as far as he gets. even with the aspirator air injection system chrysler used when a full smog pump wasnt called for it required a one way valve to get air into the exhaust. there is no way no how water got in the engine from the tailpipe while running. if water got into the cylinder it wouldnt likely extremely unlikely cause lifter failure it would cause hydraulic lock usually resulting in a bent rod. i guess you may be correct...maybe not. fact of the matter is i have better things to do than to refute the info you state. that does not mean i will accept it as fact...i just have better things to do. that being said...and lets say you are correct. i find it utterly impossible to accept that any sort of negative pulse could in any way shape or form suck water up an incline of maybe 10-15 or so degrees through the muffler which being hot as hell would turn any water into vapor and expel said vapor through the cat and then directly upwards into the head pipe hot as balls into the manifold hotter than balls and after this water somehow made its way past these areas...made it into the oil passages galleys etc to do damage to the lifters come on now!! i know i requested things to stay on topic but i understand the rebuttal which was submitted so i just had to interject things in laymens terms. -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi ----cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ----mack daddy trailers ----ice angels on sat 16 sep 2006 010938 gmt mike mik@localnet.com wrote sadly your hypothesis is badly flawed in spite of your assumed knowledge of the physics of expanding and cooling gases which actually have little or nothing to do with your theory the said part is you are wrong but since you do not understand the dynamics involved your figure it is bs first yes there is a slight negative pulse however this pulse is grossly outweighed by the positive flow of hot exhaust gases. if your hypothesis were true and an exhaust system on an otherwise healthy engine could indeed ingest water how could the exhaust gases ever escape to overcome the negative pressure yet miraculously somehow they do. you are missing the point here. it is a cycle that purculates the water up the exhaiut system. the flow of hot gasses at a idle is very very low. because of to reasons one is that most of the energy is caputred in the engine via expansion in the cylinder and the rest of most of the heat is lost to engine block and exhaust so the air flow is very low. the net positive air flow is about 15 to 20 cfm at atmospheric pressure or about 10 cfm per pipe with duals. the peak pulse velocity is about 7 fps little more than a light breeze when pulse is first started but after pulse a negative wave it created is back pressure is low. this is because the average pressure is so low that it allows a negative cycle to form this creates a vacum that sucks water up and the negative pulse is longer in duration so it travels up pipe and is not expeled unless volume of gas in pipe is increase to a point that the average pressure is high enough that when the negative impluse cycle starts that it does not go negative enough to offset the postive pressure in pipe in relation to atmospheric pressure. simple physics here but too simple for some. also to test the veracity of your hypothesis travel to any lake nearby your home and look for an old fashioned inboard runabout. somehow they manage to avoid water ingestion without the need of restrictors or any other such nonsense. a inboard runabout has a exhaust system baffled and designed to be under water duh.... a car does not. your really should take the time to review your theories before exposing them to public ridicule. you should take time to read more and learn before you shoot down something you do not understand. you know i worked on the gps system proto types almost 30 years ago when government tested it under the milstar projet name. i can tell you exactly how it works and why because the theory of operation has not changed to this day on it though the packaging has. youcan kinda thank me if you use one today in any form becuase myself with others worked the bugs out if it back then there are three types of people in groups those that want to share knowledge myself those that do not know and want to attack others or cause trouble on things they do not understand for a notch on their holster you and those wanting to find the real reasons way. people such as yourself tends to hurt those that are asking for a solution or cause to begin with and if you do not understand the subject completely do not comment on it. ----------------- thesnoman.com .

i just traded in my 1992 dodge diesel for a new 2006 slt quad cab 4x2 dually long bed with the automatic transmission 3.73 axle exhaust brake and towing package. the 92 was a pickup truck this new one is pretty luxurious for a truck. the 92 cummins had another 100k or so left in it im sure but the rest of the truck was showing its age. rattles and squeaks all the window rubber was shot but for a 14 year old truck with over 200k it held up very well with no major problems. my 92 averaged about 18.6 mpg empty and around 15 towing. any idea what i can expect with this one empty i usually cruse the speed limit or 70 max and towing 60 to 65 max except california where it is 55 i will probably have around 500 miles on it when i will pull a 7000 lb trailer to oregon. i assume with only 500 miles that i shouldnt set the cruse control and just go along for hours at one speed. although the first 250 miles of the trip will be back roads through small towns to reach the interstate so that should help. while in oregon or california i plan to buy a 5th wheel that will be at about 85-90% of the trucks capacity and that i suspect will be a big hit on mileage. so any hints tips things to watch out for would be greatly appreciated. thanks jerry i had to go 50mph or less for the first 500 miles when towing with my 2005 2500hd slt quad cab. i think that is to help break in the tranny. seems you not only need to take it easy on the engine when new but the tranny as well. m2cw hawkeye65 .

it but didnt finish reading the chapter. you should do the reading because it you applied a vacum gage to the exhaust system at a idle you would find that a negative plus does exist at a idle at time and it would be worse with duals. when you placed tailpipe in the water it started to ingest a little water during the negative pulses and it worked its way up into the system further which further cooled the pipes and gas and increased the draw of water into system and it may have gotten into engine itself. id pay good money for you to demonstrate this in the real world. id even let you use my own personal truck. id even drive down to dayton close enough for you to do it. maybe just maybe if the engine in this demonstration had enough non-sealing exhaust valves no muffler or cat converter it might do this but i really doubt it. think of this an engine is an air pump. if the engine is to stay running it must be moving air. while a little water may get inside the tailpipe do you really think that water will take on the charactoristics of a salmon and swim its way thru a muffler ten feet of pipe and a cat converter while battling that flow of air coming thru the pipe i think youre confused this issue with the issue of an exhaust manifold gasket leaking that can suck in cold air and burn a valve. the water would not have to swim up the pipe as it would be drwan up it by the negative plus durring low flow at a idle and it would be self feeding in that as the water got in there it would cool the gases more and increase the strength of the negative pulses. also you must factor the angle of the ramp because if it is a shallow angle it would be easier for the water to be drawn up into it. people tend to think that there is always psotive pressure in the exhaust system but this is not always the case at a idle with a low restriction system. hold a piece of paper over exhaust outlet at a hot idle and watch how it is drwan tight against it several times a second and the lowe the restriction of the exhaust the more noticable it is at times. a diesel would not have this problem because it moves a lot of air through system all the time because there is no throttle valve limiting the intake air flow. if you have a dual exhaust it would actual tend to be more prone to this yet because the quicker expansion and cooling of gas at a idle and stronger negative pressure pulses. expensive lesson for sure. if you want to avoid this in future keep tail pipes out of water and place a restrictor in pipes a restrictor in the pipe muffler or cat converter fit this description no a cat would not fit this bill you would need to have a more restrictive exhaust so that a negative pressure never developes and this could be done temporarily with a retrictor inserted into pipes outlet when it water. i think id rather try to reason with my three year old grandcritter.. only if you are on that level too and if it makes you more comfortable. i do not make the rules of physics but i know how to apply them which some do not so they dismiss it as hogwash. i have yet to see another possible plausable theory that could explain this posted here. do not shoot the messanger because you do not understand the message. there is a lot more to the dynamics involved here than people realize. denny durring this time so the a higher pressure is maintained during idle cycle which reduce the negative pulse to zero. if you have duals go back to a stock exhaust. ----------------- thesnoman.com as usual it appears you pulled this * theory * out of your ass. where do you get all these bullshit *theories* from i can tell you for a fact you are full of shit as usual. i have owned four wheel drive trucks for the past 30 years and use them off road quite often. i have owned 4 6 and 8 cylinder trucks with stock exhaust dual exhaust headers with converters and without converters. i have had them idling in deep water and shallow water at any angle you can imagine. i have even shut them off while in the water. not once have i had a problem with water entering the engine through the exhaust. i have been on organized four wheel drive runs where there were dozens of other vehicles in the group. not once did anyone have a problem with water entering an engine through the exhaust. i have to call bullshit on your *theory*. now the op stated that he needed his lifters replaced. now i would like you to explain how water got into his lifters through the exhaust without doing any other damage to his engine i cant wait to hear this *theory*. bfg and while you are explaining things i would also like to know where the knock sensor is on a v-10 engine in a dodge pick up. . 222 322067 koimg2pmpp45e3mao95djs9sddol67dq90@4ax.com on sat 16 sep 2006 004429 gmt honeybs@radix.net beekeep wrote on fri 15 sep 2006 224257 gmt denny wddodge@woh.rr.com wrote i thi

thats exactly what my line of thought was as well. low oil running backed down on an incline with oil away from the pickup in the pan more than likely...left the vehicle so didnt hear it clammering for oil and walah sp...toasted lifters and possibly more that can only be seen by a complete teardown. -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi ----cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ----mack daddy trailers ----ice angels im probably way off base here but it sounds like low oil to me.that would account for the rough running the hydraulic lifters going bad quickly and even the check engine light which does come on when oil/oil pressure gets really low.just my 1.5 cents adjusted for inflation. goes under water both vehicles start to blow steam and the engine light comes on. last week just after leaving the engine runnig while i loaded the boat - the valves started knocking really loud and now i have a hefty repair bill to reinstall new valve lifters. does anyone have any ideas why none of my other trucks have ever had this problem. .

thanks! if you look on advance auto parts website they generally have a list of the different models a part will fit.you can drill down to this list after looking up individual parts. to illustrate the reason for my question below i have learned that the a/c compressor on an 82-86 capri 82-93 mustang 84-86 ltd 85 marquis 85-88 cougar and 85-88 thunderbird are all interchangeable. is there a book or manual either in print online or on cd-rom that lists interchangeable parts thanks! joe colella firstname.lastname@yahoo.com .

the only bolts you need to remove after you take the brake caliper and rotor off are 3 14mm 12pt. bolts on the back of the steering knucklethey are at 125lb-ft so they will be tuff to remove. then you have to work the outer hub bearing race out from the knuckle. i did this to my 99 ram with a dana 44 front axle yours may be different i/m not sure. .
