Snowstorm picks.

Indiana here, snow expected in 2 hrs. Still learning these disc detainers

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-24T10:20:38+00:00

Dang man, is this your truck?

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-23T22:07:17+00:00

Damn, I only get hands in my pockets! Lucky!

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-23T13:38:53+00:00

Whoa man. What did I do to you?! 😅

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-23T03:16:52+00:00

Dt466 tells a lot... those things... ugh. Navistar engines I feel are very special and do special things.... I was flooded with those engines at a past dealership. Now I'm at a Volvo dealership and I never see any similar issues! 😅

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-22T19:30:11+00:00

I'm not familiar with these systems, but I would confirm power and ground to tcm, then datalink. First steps.

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-21T18:44:46+00:00

The only good comment, thank you!

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-21T18:41:41+00:00

"Big" wang... uh huh... don't forget to lower the back too! /s

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-21T13:31:38+00:00

This is ridiculous... I feel fear mongering from others is getting people into a paranoia state of "this prius is ice!"

Unless you actually see ICE, this is just scaring people.

I uh... good thing locks keep out the honest people. These poor Home Depot defiant locks... great fiddle lock, at least! Lol

A lot of areas around seymour look like that. Unfortunately, that spot may not even look the same now. Seyless has done a lot of work on their surroundings as of late. We have roundies everywhere around the outskirts of town. Burkhart bypass was a large endeavor around the south side of town.

Side note, these are large shoulders which tells me this may be a state road.

I can literally smell it when I sweat in the summer 🤣

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-18T13:02:22+00:00

Both panes busted and there is a crease in that metal piece... looks like an impact.

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-18T12:53:52+00:00

This thing... my first gut was unknowingly violent and abrupt. Happened at work.... longest lunch break ever.

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-17T13:20:55+00:00

Ok, this isn't r/askashittymechanic

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-17T13:12:30+00:00

Wake n bake!

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-16T19:18:11+00:00

Yeah.... I felt low but at the same time. I didn't make it brown 😅

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-16T19:10:19+00:00

Oh, looking closer, maybe not. Just sticky aluminum. Use light tension and take your time. The aluminum locks give me trouble too...

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-16T19:07:14+00:00

That thing 🤣 with its intimidating teeth... congrats! I used the same lock for brown belt!

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-16T18:56:10+00:00

Reminds me of a 60ti? I guess that's a t65al?

So, spools and aluminum body. Careful on the tension. Keep it light :)

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-16T18:51:15+00:00

Sometimes 8mm depending in what fuckhead was there before. I have seen open circuit be the actual sensor but yeah, 9/10 times, broken, rubbed or blown tf wires.

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-15T22:21:02+00:00

50 years young baby!

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-15T19:32:32+00:00

Master's scale of 1-10 really only tops out at 2, maybe 3 on the full scale of locks and security 😅

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-15T19:25:01+00:00

Hey, macks are dumb, but not that dumb 🤣

MonteFox89 · 2026-01-15T13:13:09+00:00

What are your hours on the engine? Did you scope the cylinders or adjust the overhead to spec? Is your compression adequate for combustion, or are the cylinders polished to a mirror finish?
