I did Pikes Peak over 10 years ago with no issues, it ran a little warm at lower altitudes but the gravel part of the drive was slower and cooler. I did come down too fast and had the park ranger make me wait in a parking lot for my brakes to cool down. I believe he said that they were over...
The Vmax gets the most miles and the Kubota gets the most hours. I have two miles of gravel on my 16 mile commute, takes 18 min. each way. Old GMC van for snow days which is just a half dozen or so here.
I have been using Amsoil 75-90wt gear lube for nearly 50K miles, I think the gear box runs a little cooler. Only down side is hard to get into second when the temps are freezing until the oil warms.
Craig, you might want to check the wiring and placement of the VEC, it might be getting too hot and acting up or maybe a bad connection. I'm guessing but that could mess with the output to the speedo
Just got mine for $691, here are a couple of photos of the collector. The tubes are 1 3/4" not 2 3/4" and all headers have to restrict their exhaust flow down to whatever your exhaust it, 2 1/2, 3 or 4 inches. Five 1 3/4" tubes have the same area as one 3.91" tube.
You may have just evaporated the water and unburnt gas out of the oil. I have a 97' and it has always had drive-train lash that is most noticeable in 6th on level highways using the cruise control.
I've been using one for 6 years on my GTS, The only issue I have is down a long steep hill on the highway the speed will creep up to illegal because the engine in sixth gear does not produce enough engine braking to slow it down, otherwise it works great.
I found my car on Ebay then bought it through the VCA classifieds. I bought it sight unseen but I did investigate the seller who has an excellent reputation both on these boards and through his business. I couldn't be happier with the purchase, thank you Paul Scharf. 31,000 miles later I'm...
Worked my a** off for 14 1/2 years at a blue collar job doing all the overtime I could get and saving half of everything I got in some decent mutual funds. Then I inherited a house and took a close look at my net worth, shocked myself and decided to start living it up. Bought a motorhome, the...
I just read on another forum about a test with them in a C5, he had problems with the ceramic insulator breaking.
Here is a copy of what he said:
