I'm looking at a 2015 F350 cab and chassis to purchase. The truck was either a state or town truck, so overall it was well maintained and has everything I'm looking for in it. When I crawled under to check it out, the oil pain is covered in oil and I'm looking for some info as to known oil leak issues with this truck. It has a 6.7L powerstroke. I have the exact same truck, but it's a 2013 and there isn't a drop of oil that leaks from it, so I'm in some unfamiliar territory here.

New to diesel, and I bought a 2013 F350 Super Duty C&C with 49K miles. It was a town vehicle and seems to be very well maintained. Bonus, it came with a 9' fisher plow that I've already put to good use this winter.

I'm well aware of issues with the CP4, Turbo, etc.. and I have some money to sink into the vehicle. I'm also fully on board with fuel additives, and I've already put an oil bypass filtration system on it. I'd like it to last a long time and have no problem dropping $$$ to swap out the CP4 for a DCR, and replace the turbo while that's being done. What I'm looking for is a good and reputable diesel shop to do the work. I have a trusted mechanic to do the gas stuff that I'm not

I have an Omtech 150w 4063 engraver/cutter, and I recently started having an issue with the laser constantly firing. As soon as I hit start on the cut, the laser turns on and will not turn off in between distinct sections. Doing some research, the overwhelming answer was to replace the high voltage power supply. I was planning on buying a spare, so I went ahead and bought one, but the issue persists.

I've put my meter on the L On lead, and did a test fire. I'm not getting any variation in voltage, which implies that the TTL function isn't working currectly. I read a steady .8v the entire time. Anyone have the specs on what I should be getting on that lead for a 6442 controller?

The first professional bike race that I got to see since it's last stage was in Boston. I had a Serotta Davis Phinney at the time and was able to get his autograph, but what sticks with me is Greg Lemond. After the sprinters did their thing, the rest of the peloton came through, and several minutes later, Greg Lemond was literally feet in front of the broom wagon.

Of course, he would go on to win that years TdF just 2 months later.

I have a Samsung gas stove that is probably 5 years old. Today, the oven stopped working. The top burners work fine, the oven and Brodie’s not work. I have verified that the igniter works, they glow cherry red, but there is no gas delivered.

I suspect the gas safety valve, and I’m looking for a way to test that hypothesis. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I did my first trip to Scotland this past July and had to have a kilt made. Fedex just dropped this off at my door.
