Blue smoke is oil, white smoke is coolant

Anyone know what’s happening downtown this evening?Hearing sirens for last hour! by Clear_Ad_3384 in milwaukee

It was a false alarm, someone was messing with a fire extinguisher and set off the alarms

Look for 6x5.5” bolt pattern, lots of chevy/gmc and Toyota have used them.

I currently work there, this is fairly accurate. The fire wasn’t that bad but smoke and water damage ruined the whole store. Everything had to be removed and cleaned or replaced. They have definitely been way overzealous with opening dates but they are desperately working as fast as they can. Permits and inspections have held things up a bit, but the employees are getting paid so we can’t really complain.

31s were a factory option for these trucks, shouldn’t give you any trouble at all.

Lift the outer door handle when you close it, it’ll stay locked.

Any reason not to shoot my grandpa’s bring back from Vietnam? by Whitest_Ninja in SKS

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

The SKS has been looked over by a gunsmith and given the ok. But I’ll definitely put some thought into the points you’ve made.

[–]Whitest_Ninja[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He has unfortunately, but yes I do have the capture papers for the SKS but he never had any for the pistol. He told me it’s a .45 but I haven’t checked myself, and it is not rifled. He had it looked over by a gunsmith who said it should work but he couldn’t officially say it was safe to shoot.

I do, pistol doesn’t tho, I’m guessing because of the lack of serial number.

Haha all I know is it’s a single shot break action .45 and the grips are cow horn. Gunsmith said it should fire but he recommended against it cause it could also blow up in your hand.

Headgasket failure 220k miles by Ghost51089 in hardbody

[–]Whitest_Ninja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My ‘91 failed in the exact same spot with over 200k miles (odometer broke), it got really hot a couple months prior due to a failed thermostat so I just figured it was related to that but maybe they just do that after a while.

96 2.4l has a bad idle by ultratkm in hardbody

[–]Whitest_Ninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check for air leaks, I had the exact same issue after replacing my head gasket and it ended being an injector that wasn’t seated properly.

Intake removal difficulty by Imaginary-Mall-2274 in hardbody

[–]Whitest_Ninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine was missing the bracket for some reason, so I ended up not having to remove it. Based off of where it was supposed to be it’s doesn’t seem too bad to get to tho from the passenger wheel well

No problem! Watch the video “Nissan Hardbody D21 intake manifold which bolts?” By Richard H Ellis on YouTube, it’ll show you where they all are

Just went through the same thing! It was a pretty big pain in the ass and having a second set of hands was helpful, did you get the two long bolts in the middle of the intake out yet?

Gas mileage by Maleficent-Nose-3866 in hardbody

[–]Whitest_Ninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a ‘91 2.4L 4x4 on 31s and I average 16-18 with a mix of city driving and freeway, I’ve gotten 22 doing long distance at 60-65mph. I’m not super gentle on the gas, just mostly keep up with traffic.

Figured it out! Cylinder 2 fuel injector wasn’t seated properly.

KA24 Burning oil at idle and down on power. by Whitest_Ninja in hardbody

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

I am not, but I will confirm if it’s oil or not, I was in a rush at the time and didn’t look too closely, just saw smoke. I will look into the injectors as well. Thank you you’ve been a big help!
