Just a guy working on projects of all shapes and sizes in the back garage. Cars, trucks, motorcycles, 4 wheelers, home improvement, Hobby grade remote control planes, and maybe even some watercraft in the future. Usually if there is a good deal on marketplace, it'll end up in my possession.
Working on the GMC 2500
Oil Change ASMR on the Sierra today, after getting a bolt in the tire and getting new TPMS sensors. Maybe we can go a week without a check engine light *fingers crossed*

Testing Compression on a 2002 Cannondale Cannibal
มุมมอง 305ปีที่แล้ว
Doing some diagnostics on my Cannondale 440, checking compression and stator to try and get this thing up and running. The process is the same for a stock bore Cannondale of any model including the motorcycles. Check out Blackwidow ATV for parts and support. www.blackwidow-ok.com/

Got my new fuselage fixed up and hit the flying field for some fun. These Turbo Timbers fly great in the wind and look great in the air. #airplane #stol #bushplane #aviation #horizon #spektrumrc #fyp #remotecontrol #funny #sky

What leaf springs do you have and how does it ride?
@@jonathandennison7259 Icon Suspension 4” leafs, it does better than the rough country leafs that were on it.
Where do you find parts for this thing I just got one
Blackwidow ATV
This is a bad repair. Especially if the hose is part of the cooling system. The clamps that come stock in the car, are not ridged. Meaning when the fluid heats up the hose is also gonna heat up and expand. The clamps are made to expand along with the hose. The way your doing it. Wont be long ti that hose has a cut right along where you just clamped it. Sometimes what looks like a good idea , ain’t!
These come factory on fluid lines from German and European manufacturers, it’s just another option to have in the tool box. I’ve used these for a number of years with no issues small and large engines.
Checked out pmf, have you used their front axle/ knuckle ball joints ? They use delerin as the bearing instead of bronze so wondering if they last the same as OEM ?
Haven’t used their ballpoints yet, but when I need to replace mine I would definitely give them a shot
Just got mine replace at ford now I wish I had looked into it like I am now lol would of went with pmf instead 😅
Aren’t those clamps you used the same thing as pex clamps, like what you’d use on the plumbing in your house? If so I’m set 😂 good video 👍
They sure do look the same, if it’s good enough for water it’s good enough for oil right 😂
All of my German cars use them.
Why will nobody show how to remove the lower factory plow bracket mount, or crash bar that is held in place by 3 bolts with round flat heads??? Mine just turn in place. Vice grips are kinda working to hold heads while I use an impact.
I took my crash bar off when I got the truck, i didn’t have any issues with the bolts turning though. Maybe grind the smooth side flat with a flap disc if you can get access and punch them out.
I just went out and got the power of fire, lol. Torches will take anything off. I put mine back on with actual bolts now. I noticed a steering and sway difference without it. Thanks for the reply.
@@JDM850 that was my next suggestion, glad you got it.
This was one of the best vids out there on this mod. Subbed and Thanks!!
What size prop are you running
Master Airscrew 12x6
Agreed- Cork gaskets have been around since like 1923- there are better things out there now.
Hi thanks for the video, great info. I picked up a cannibal 440 what looks like a 03 or 04 the guy that sold to me didnt knw the history. He had aquired the shop. Looking at it it w/ a black bucket with sone plastics, and a gear that was replaced from the timimg. He told me just set the timing and youre good to go. At least thats what i see. How will i know the parts needed to be replaced have been? This quad has been riden
- ridden as like it been round the block but in good shape. Is it foolish to think previous owner handled everything?
What ended up being the problem?
Not sure, I sent the ecu and throttle body out to get double checked. I haven’t had the free time to put it back together.
@@CotterPinGaragebe prepared for one or more cam lobes to be wiped.
@@wwilcox2726 it’s a fresh 0 hour build from BlackWidow.
@@CotterPinGarage are the cams OEM? If they are, then the exhaust cam is advanced. Or they've substituted/modified the decomp roller that bumps the valve bucket. Normal Cdale cranking compression is 70ish with stock cams. BTW the OEM cams were originally from Megacycle and offer very strong performance. Also the later cams, though not Megacycle were exact knockoffs of the originals, just cheaper from Italy.
@@wwilcox2726 it’s a 495, so no telling. I didn’t originally build the motor I bought the entire machine from a guy on the east coast.
Is this good advice?
For an IDI oil pan that the engine has to be removed to change the gasket, yes 👍🏻
Promo_SM 😞
I completely removed all that plastic nonsense inside the tank from Ford, added a piece of stainless fuel line to extend the pickup line to about an inch from the bottom of the tank and installed a good quality aluminum body stainless steel filter on the frame rail before the fuel pump. Now it's simple easy to check and clean my tank filter without having to drop the tank.
I considered doing the same thing, and with the pump being on the frame rail I don’t know why ford didn’t put a canister filter right before the pump for easy maintenance. Over engineered pickup and screen assembly for sure.
How much fluid did you have to add after the swap?
I think I added an additional quart or 2, and dropped temps 30-40 degrees. Stock pan, stock trans as far as I know with 200k miles.
Sweet ride I wish they would bring back the Excursion’s!!!
That’s nice
Thanks!
Also Goin with the mishismoto
I went the cheaper route with a Dorman cooler, but I do love me some Mishimoto parts. I have their intercooler on my LML Duramax.
@@CotterPinGarage I was thinking of that but I love how the mishismoto lines are one line from 3/4 to 5/8 so thats less fittings.
P r o m o s m 🌈
I put the mishimoto in my 03 7 3 excursion pulling a boat though south Florida in July highest trans temp I reached was 155
Online from Amazon? Which one?
I just got the Mishimoto 23x7 cooler. I was going to do the 6.0 upgrade but didn’t feel like it at this point. 96 7.3. It seems good so far. I pull 4-14k daily
I got the mishimoto as well and noticed a MAJOR cooling difference. Also helped to change my inline filter that's been backwards since I got the truck 😂😂
I spy a Nac's racing clutch cover.
Yes sir 😁
Thats not the special tool for hose clamps but is super affective.
its an ear clamp tool
Just a guess but i think that crew has done this before,what a hiwire ballet!
How was there no troubling static?
Line was grounded on either side of the structures we were working
His eyes are up there
There are rubber isolators that are missing in the bottom holes that’s why the factory bolts didn’t work
That makes much more sense, I figured there may be variances in the core support from my 7.3 to the 6.0s
@@CotterPinGarage yeah I’ve never understood why dorman won’t sell them in the cooler. Even if you’re working on a 6.oh the isolators are dry rotted if you need to replace the cooler. Great video though!! The people new to these rigs will like to see it. Also do you have a trans temp gauge other than the stock one ? If so add before and after temps I’m in Minnesota and plan to travel some day and I’m curious how big a difference there is in daily driving at the higher ambient temps
I have a glow shift 3 in 1 a pillar gauge with EGT, Boost and Transmission temp. It was running 190 at 83 degrees ambient temp the other day which is what prompted the cooler swap.
@@CotterPinGarage Thank you CPG bundle kit makes it easy.. What temps are you seeing during towing now? I plan in doing this upgrade... I have a 4r100.. there's a vented Derale pan that increases fluid cooling as well..
@@camposvazquez it hasn’t been too hot lately but I’m seeing 140-150 under normal driving conditions.
Gotta get me a 7.3 excursion
Prices are going up better snag one soon!
Yes get you one, they are awesome, I will never sell mine
That’s a hairpin not cotter pin
Thats not a landing thats a slam dunk 😂
I thought it was real for a sec😳
Throw that thing away lol
👍🏾👍🏾 nice moves brother 🤙🏾
Useful thanks!!
what size lift and tires, and what's the total height of the truck? could you measure it if you dont mind?
285/70/16 tires 36 3/4" front 39 3/4" from ground level to center of wheel arches. Rear factory block maybe, but I have not added a lift.
I love the tricycle in the begining.. love Sally
Should we pull the remaining bushes? What can we replace them with??
The FERD Got er done! Love seeing this dude. Front yard looks way better without those bushes.
Love it! Wearing his finest threads I see!!!
