    Opti Overhaul

    Went to throw the heads on tonight. Started torquing them and they just felt funny. I thought maybe my torque wrench was acting up so I tried another and same thing. These are stainless bolts so they're pretty soft. Torque is only 30 ft lbs. I couldn't get the to 30 before two broke. They...

    Boat question.

    I remember when I was thirteen. I started racing motocross. Had a YZ100. Broke a shift fork and nobody around to fix it. So I pulled the motor and split the cases and did it myself. Don't know what the hell I was thinking lol. Not sure how I even pulled it off. No manual or nothing. Now...

    we were supposed to get the cameras with ours but we weren't ready to install them at the time the system was put in. We haven't felt the need for them so we just haven't had them come install em.

    I think generally speaking they all make damn good motors. One thing they all have in common is they are all relying on the quality of parts from third party vendors. All it takes is a string of one part that has a flaw in manufacturing and the company takes a huge hit. The days of building...

    This isn't good

    Things have evolved so much that I doubt old testing methods account for this. Just a hunch. I also think there has been such a push away from general knowledge like mechanical/blue collar type things that people now fail so miserably in that testing area it brings the total scores down much...

    I just did a google search on highest rated ones. They are cheap as hell actually. Under $100. The top one is good for up to half a mile. Gonna get one. This one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074WLBT89/?tag=nodakangler10-20

    they cost so much more because your paying more per unit for R&D etc. Chevy probably sells more motors in a week than merc in ten years. But merc has the same R&D costs spread out on 1/100th the number of units. At first glance it makes no sense I agree. But when you realize they have so few...

    They have cages on the rod caps. Most of these designs are due the rpm’s they run. Cars and pickups can get away with less engineering because they don’t run 6k rpm. Everybody thinks they don’t last like car engines but they actually do when you figure the number of revolutions they make...

    We had problems with our front door dead bolt too. It's not the install it has an issue internally with it. I messed around with it quite a bit and there is no fixing it. We just haven't called to get it swapped out. We never use the front door so it's locked all the time anyway. But it's a...

    Got more of the tedious work done tonight after work. Every piston pin has little needle bearings to install in the connecting rod head. Couple hours of pissin around and I got em all on the rods and rings installed. Next step to install in the cylinders. The Optis are a strange motor in that...

    I've had vivint for five years. Love it. Wouldn't be without it living out here in the Williston area. I got a chuckle out of a buddy of mine. He had ADT for years. Switched to vivint. He unplugged the ADT crap and threw it in a box and ADT didn't even know lol. He quit paying the invoice...
