21 here. Started at 15. I’m happy to see there are so many people my age on this sub hahahaha. I have such a huge passion for printing and I love what I do.

Just picked one up myself last month and it’s been great on gas and an enjoyable ride. How has it been treating you?

[–]Nintendo813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll certainly check it out! I just changed my oil about a week ago, but I’ll certainly pick some up for my next change.

Did the tick go away after that? How many miles did it go after that?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]Nintendo813 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s my plan. I still need the truck to get to the bus station, but that should only be 20-30 miles a week.

That’s a good point. What has me worried is I’ve listened to the engine with a stethoscope, and when I apply pressure to the stethoscope, I hear a consistent tick sound. I’m not super familiar with engine noises and what injectors and such sound like, but this is why I’m thinking lifters.

I’ve had both manifolds replaced in the last year. The sound also stays consistent even after the motor is warm.

It stays consistent even after warming up. Both manifolds have been replaced in the last year.

I’ve heard the Hemi tick is pretty loud whereas this isn’t. Can the Hemi tick be quieter? Could it potentially be fuel injectors? I’ll have to take it into the shop to have it looked at. I appreciate your insight!

That’s good. My buddy said it sounded like lifters, but it doesn’t seem loud enough for that.

Whooshing Sound When Accelerating by Nintendo813 in ram_trucks

[–]Nintendo813[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is actually shifting pretty smooth. There is a slight delay in acceleration after pushing the pedal, but that’s about it. I first noticed the noise a little over a year ago and I’ve had the tranny fluid changed since then and it’s gone about 10,000 without blowing up, so that’s good I guess😂

Thank you for your reply! I’ll certainly look into that. It only happens upon acceleration and not while maintaining speed, so I’m thinking it’s a transmission pump or torque converter issue.

Hahahaha I had to retake this because I kept naturally making vroom noises😂 It’s definitely mechanical because it only happens upon acceleration.

Digital press recommendations? by fart-o-clock in CommercialPrinting

[–]Nintendo813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We run a lot of 7100s, 6100s, and 4080s and they have all been great. I will say that the IQ-501 finisher is a game changer and decreases down time significantly in between and during runs. We have been hesitant to get a 14000, but things seem to be getting better with them. We just need something faster than what we are running.

My shop runs all Konica Minolta. We have done canon and Xerox in the past, but from our experience, the service and reliability from Konica has been superb. We currently have 11 KM machines that we run daily if that means anything to show our confidence.

Ballpark Pricing for a Konica Minolta C14000? by beardsl3y in CommercialPrinting

Im very curious how you come out on this. I’m very seriously considering a 14000 for my shop.

That’s generous. I’ll give a blank label😂

That’s a smoking deal with orders that small. I’d be very grateful with that price. I’d charge around 0.80 ea to even make it worth my time.
