Very true, use silicone hosing wherever possible.

Do you think re-installing the original piece with sealant would work?

I believe you have a block heater. You need to buy the cord and plug it in. Do a thread search for this because there is already a thread that details this with pics showing the location on the block that you plug the cord into.

I pick up my Overland HA diesel tomorrow after 11 weeks waiting from order date. It would have been another 2 weeks but the dealer phoned and asked me for authorization for them to get the vehicle from the staging yard in Calgary and drive it here, about 100 km’s. Of course I agreed.

I read an article on Zero Hedge this evening that details delays in auto manufacturing worldwide. Apparently it is due to computer chip supplies that can’t keep up to demand during the Covid. Estimated to be up to 500,000 vehicles worldwide in delay status right now.

6. MAXIMUM LOAD AND COLD TIRE INFLATION Finally, in the area of the sidewall closest to the wheel, you’ll find the tire’s load capacity and its maximum cold inflation pressure. This might be different from the inflation pressure recommended for your vehicle by its manufacturer. That’s because...

I will check mine tomorrow. Itlooks different than yours, but let me find out and I’ll post it. Thanks

You are saying put more psi than max at max load? That doesn’t seem correct to me.

Also, my understanding is the door jamb max is also max load.

Note that I said 10% under, or in the case of 44 psi, 5 psi less.

Yes it is a general question that could be applied to any vehicle. I have run 6 vehicles this way but have not run out a set of tires in 20 years due to low mileage. My JT will be delivered to the dealer tomorrow so I don‘t know the specific rating on the Overland high altitude diesel. I know it...

That could very well be, I was just using an example from a GC. I assumed the principle would be applicable to any vehicle.

Yes I can do that. However just sitting around online in the evening and knowing there is a great knowledge base here I thought I would ask the question and tap into that. I’ll start with the chalk test though. Thanks guys.

Well I for one have had a lot of laughs reading through all 30 pages of this thread. I’m only disappointed that I am a nobody because one of my posts wan’t memed. Waaah, waaah.

I am asking if my logic with tire inflation is beneficial or not recommended practice. Quite a bit of my driving (60-70%) is with the vehicle unloaded and just me driving. The tire pressure decal on the door frame lists max tire pressure fully loaded. So, for example, the max pressure is 44 psi...

I have had TPM errors but only when changing from winter to summer tires and vv. Of course they are not really errors,the system is doing what it is supposed to - provide a notification that some tracked component is not reading correctly. No issue with my tires however, it just takes an hour or...

Keep in mind, in those days all towing was done with a cable/rope (synonymous terms in those days) so yes, the most capable cable or rope tow is a loose translation.

Since Rubicon has its origins in Latin, how about Latin for Max Tow? Remulco Maximus.

The Ravelco device is supposed to be theft-proof. Opinions?

not so true! here in florida BP has many stations and there normal pump handle is green, I think they use orange for diesel In Canada the diesel pump handles are all yellow. Same as any jerry cans or other containers for diesel. All yellow.
