    From the doc I have it shows no connection to J1-6 but J1-23. Since you do have a wire on J1-6 then mine is different or in error :noidea:

    oil filter wrench suggestions?

    Strap wrench takes care of most of mine But love this type when removing the oil filter on the truck and some others. Attach a 12 inch extension and a ratchet wrench and it will reach way up under the truck and grab it. Expands from around 2.5 to 5 inch

    VP 5.7 GS PWTR Power steering fluid leak issue

    The valve has nothing to do with the return line. The return line should be next to no pressure in it in the line. Now if the line that comes off the high pressure valve side into the cooler then this is not correct, way to much pressure. It should be connected as such If the valve that...

    Assuption: RV Antifreeze clogs watercraft

    This is just an assumption, but right now we don't have any other answer. The PWC is winterized by pumping 4 gallons of RV stuff thru the motor. Used RV stuff and not straight antifreeze (exhaust manifold) because of the inner cooler. The PWC didn't get used any last year and sat on an Easyport...

    Did I mention I hate log homes

    Yours looks real nice, look like the smaller logs. Buddy house has logs which are about a foot wide. The guy that gave him the 20K price was going to use corn cob to blast or something like that. Will say, I like looking at them, just would never own one. Have a wood sided house just bought...
