    $450 RTT's So-Cal

    After a quick look, I would say that they are coming from Shanghai Fosset Co. I have tested multiple samples branded under a variety of names including product directly from SFC and deemed them not up to snuff. Cheap short term solution IMO. Buy quality and cry once.

    The stock fuel pump runs the fuel through a pressure regulator that controls pressure to the injectors. The injectors needed for the stroker need to be larger to handle the larger displacement of the modified engine. In my case, I used 26 lb injectors. Unfortunately the stock regulator has a 40...

    Follow up here. Instead of adjusting the timing to solve a little bit of pinging that I was experiencing with my Golen stroker initially, I ran some Lucas octane booster. It did not solve it but it did help. Under the recommendation of Chad Golen, who is spot on with the customer service I...

    Explorer 1 gets a Stroker!

    FYI, I had a little bit of pinging with my Golen stroker initially. I ran some Lucas octane booster until I got a Hesco adjustable fuel pressure regulator installed today. The part number for the 91-95 engines is HES9195FR. It came preset at 44 psi. After my test run up the Mt. Baldy road at 44...

    Trailer tire question

    You will have less rolling resistance with an A/T and therefore better mileage and less tire noise. Other than that, in my 1000's of miles of off highway towing, I have not seen any advantage of the M/T other than compatibility with the tow rig configuration.

    Trailer wiring

    You have a short. You need to fully evaluate the wiring on the trailer and on the vehicle to find the source. What trailer plug configuration are you using the make the connection? We often see incorrectly wired plugs & sockets as the root cause.

    Trailer wiring

    Run it from the 2nd battery (I am assuming that it is isolated from the starting battery). Connect a 10 ga wire to your positive terminal with a 25 amp fuse or circuit breaker.

    Someone please explain this to me??

    Awesome system. We install them in vehicles with Flippacs, I run one in my own. It comes complete, all hardware included. I like the system better than a separate isolator, cables etc. I like the fact that that the cable connection is an andersen plug so that it can be moved easily to another...

    Zodi Exteme as a Mister?

    The Zodi cannot achieve the pressure necessary to power the misters for a reasonable length of time. The soda keg is from my home brewing equipment. I think I bought the used ones for $35-45. all that is needed is 2 fittings, hose, mister kit and a schraeder valve.

    Zodi Exteme as a Mister?

    Dave, What I do is use a 5 gallon soda pop keg (also known as a cornelius keg available from homebrew stores used). They can be pressurized to 100 psi with your compressor. My experience with 8 mister heads on a line is that it will run for an hour before refill. This is of course is dependent...

    1st 3000 miles & MPG Numbers I have just returned from a 3 week road trip. I was impressed with the 4.6 stroker motor performance. We ran the A/C the entire time and drove altitudes from 1800 ft to 13000 ft. Desert temps were in the low 100's. The engine ran warm but never into the red...

    Explorer 1 gets a Stroker!

    to remove those bolts you need a very long extension (or a series of them put together and access them from the rear over the top of the transmission. I would suggest keeping them in the torx pattern otherwise you may have difficulty getting to the proper torque when you re-install

    Stains on Ex-Officio

    Thanks to all for the advice. We picked up a product called "Stain-be-gone" in the regular laundry detergent aisle at Walmart in Payson, AZ. It is a gel with a scrubbing tip that came in a 7 oz plastic bottle. Anne used it the stains. The directions said it could be left on the clothing for up...
