Oil Pan Cracked Around Plug

Q: the resin im buying is made to use with foam heres a quote from a vendor i emailed. west system epoxy a105 resin with a206 hardener would do the job nicely. metering pumps are available as well as a free users manual. do not use polyester sometimes called fiberglass resin as it will melt the foam. should be okay how ridgid is the flat panel *********** i use the polyester resin making or modifying parts. there are types of foam that will work with it the type that florists use is one example. flat panel can be made with as many layers of mat as you want & therefore can be flimsy or very ridgid. reinforcing thin panels with foam cardboard or any number of other composits can make it ridgid & still very light. if you already have the foam & resin all you need is the mat. i have a roll - where are you paul aka tha driver giggle cream - it makes dessert *funny*! dallas/fort worth area. -- moparman---remove clothes to reply! --scud coordinates 32.61204 north 96.92993 west-- .

i have noticed a lot of traffic to my website regarding this post and wanted to clarify that i am and amsoil dealer and you will find information on purchasing amsoil on my website however it was not my intent to drive traffic via this post. i apologize if you feel misled in any way. i have not received any complaints but i figured i should clarify just in case somebody gets cranky about it. with that said i still stand by my previous statements. i only became an amsoil dealer after using the product in every piece of equipment i own from lawnmowers and leafblowers to my personal vehicles and found it to be the absolute best product i have ever used. a little known tip to increase fuel mileage is to replace your gear lube in the differential. this is a very easy process it takes about an hour with the right tools basically a wrench screwdriver some goof off and red insta gasket. i have noticed about an increase in fuel economy by over 4%. the gear lube is my most recent amsoil addition to my ram 1500. please feel free to email me for directions on how to change your lube. you dont need to buy amsoil from me to get the directions and i would recommend changing your gear lube at regular intervals if you use a conventional lube. this is a very overlooked regular maintenance item that can really reduce engine wear over time. thanks again dan benedix president howling enterprises inc www.howlingmotorsports.com i use a product called amsoil in my rig. 2003 dodge ram 1500 4.7l quad cab and in my wifes 2002 accord. i run my oil to 35000 miles with oil analysis and i have absolutely no problems. amsoil makes mobil 1 look like pine tar. you can check out the amsoil docs at www.howlingmotorsports.com there is a link on that site to check out the tests comparing amsoil to mobil 1 and castrol syntec etc... butch ricker wrote subject mobil 1 vs. valvoline is there really a difference between motor oils dodge says use 5-30 in the 4.7l dak; i used castrol in the neon but switched to valvoline when i got the truck i notice a lot of folks using mobil 1 at least in their posts and was curious to know why. j. mobil 1 has a larger opening allowing me to fill my truck 23% faster then the conventional oil bottle. ;- i have never actually tried valvoline synthetic. i need to change the oil in my truck soon i can try it out soo how it works... provided i can find the right viscosity that my truck likes. .

the current hemi has two plugs per cylinder. i havent had to replace em yet but i know theyre there g. --mike while the spark plug is centrally located and has several advantages for being there this is not a strict requirement to be a hemi. dodge was working on a replacement for the 426 hemi which had a less expensive head that located the plug similar to their wedge heads of the era. chryco pulled the plug pun intended on this hemi and it was never built for production. dick landy dli owns one of these factory hemi engines. it can be seen at the walter p. chrysler museum in auburn hills mi from time to time. ken centrally located spark plug in that hemispherical head. almost like the advantage a central spark plug would have in a four valve per cylinder without the expensive parts. look at where your c1500s plugs are vs. where the bikes plugs are. the hemi looks more like your bikes head. whats different about a hemi engine that make it a hemi is it the pistons -- smoove 91 gsxr 750 96 chevy c1500 and 94 suburban hated by many... confronted by none! pain is weakness leaving the body!!! its better to be judged by twelve than carried by six. www.myhooptie.com .

peragoncoverreview@yahoo.com peragoncoverreview wrote before you buy a peragon cover you shold no they have a big fat no refunds policy. check out a peragon cover on a dodge truck at www.geocities.com/peragoncoverreview/index.html to add a couple of comments from someone thats had one on his 02 ram 1500 since last november * the cover is a pain to keep adjusted and aligned. its very sensitive to minor misalignment of the rails and then it binds up. when its adjusted right it glides open and closed like a charm. but i think its remained adjusted right about three days out of the 10 months ive had it. * the powder coat finish is crap. after 6 months it faded to an ugly medium-dark gray color. every time i wash the truck a lot of the black powder coat comes off on the wash mit and chamois. * the cover is definitely not water tight. even with the rails adjusted it drips a fair amount of water into the bed with just morning dew on it. i live in southern california so this isnt a big deal for me but someone in say seattle would be annoyed. i dont hate the cover really. but i would not buy another one and id recommend others look hard at other options before buying one. ciao paul . 222 289730 f8wdncdewbbthdlcrvn-qa@look.ca hey guysi got an 03 dakota 4.7 how do i unhook or disable this rev limiter thx thump .

on a 2000 dakota with 3.7 v6 engine where would i find the radiator drain petcock same place as it is on most all radiators - lower-left drivers-side corner of the radiator facing the engine. turn it 1/4-turn counter-clockwise while pulling it out. have a drain hose hooked up to the plastic nipple and drain it into a bucket. removing the radiator cap will allow it to drain much faster. .

budd thanks for your recommendations. i am thinking about drilling the welds out of the broken pieces and hopefully find a set in a salvage yard. i havent been able to find them new. must be a dealer only item with the bracket. then i will mig a bead on the top. i dont think there is alot of stress on this after the aligment is set and the bolts are tight. do you think this will work thanks again it might but the reason i suggested getting the complete bracket was so you could inspect and do any repairs off the truck . . .a whole lot easier trust me. vbg grade 8 bolts and nuts not the silvery grade 5 pieces!!! will allow a bit more torque for better holding. but i just thought about something i need to check for you access to the other side of the sheetmetal in the crossmember or frame. if you cant get to the backside to hold the nuts then the idea sucks. let me go take a quick look at the 79 d-150. . . .ok dont try to cut the rivet heads off to remove the brackets because they actually bolt to the frame. the bolt heads are pressed into the bracket like a wheel stud. front and rear brackets look to be identical. i doubt youll find any new brackets but you might check with local body / frame repair shops. generally if the vehicle is under 10 yrs old oem is usually available 10- to 20 or 25 yrs. go with aftermarket 25+ youre on your own. in the case of these brackets however those from a 1992 may be the same. budd .
