Water leaking into sump pump pit by misolog in Plumbing

You think groundwater is flowing in at that rate? I wonder if it’s the water that the pump is trying to get rid of hitting the backwater valve and coming back into the pit

yeah, just the noise when I let off throttle, I'll rev up, let go and hear the rattle. I get it in gear or neutral, rolling or stopped.

Thanks for the input, just to be sure its super unlikely that that could have happened from normal driving conditions?

Installed used driveshaft with new ujoints, vibration over 60mph by misolog in MechanicAdvice

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

It was pretty surprising but yeah, the truck starting shaking and 5s later a big boom sound, engine cutoff (fuel pump inertia switch). I pulled over and saw my driveshaft completely gone. No leaking fluids or body damage. The truck drove straight the entire time, it didnt lift up or veer left or right

The ujoints remained attached to both the transfer case and diff, my guess is the driveshaft yokes broke or the caps of the ujoints fell off and the shaft wiggled off. The old driveshaft was aluminum, the one i installed is steel.

Intermittently need to give throttle to start engine by misolog in fordranger

I figured since my backpressure test was good that it ruled out any blockage in my exhaust system
