    2G Sunroof stuck off track. How to fix?

    At least one of the plastic articulating mount assembly is broken. Both sides have them and have to work in unison or it hangs up on one side. Pushing it forward on whichever side is broken as it attempts to close will keep it aligned. If both are broken you will have to apply force to both...

    ECMlink Ballenger Motorsports Wideband

    Check your power and grounds before you go replace everything. Widebands are very sensitive to sharing/loose grounds.If you haven’t read it yet, Ballenger’s downloadable documentation on the setup and features provides a pretty decent level of indication that they spent a good amount of time...

    Simple way to gain some Downpipe clearance

    Figured i'd add a bit of useful info on this. I did this mod yesterday and added a set screw per the following instructions. https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/oil-filter-fix-for-water-cooled-housings.274917/Couple things to note: Depending on what size bolt you use to retain the modified m20...

    3d printer help (Ender 3 v2)

    Bobby brings up a good way to quickly try height settings. Going to the “tune” tab ( if your firmware version has it) and bumping the z axis down a little mid-print on the first layer will give you a quick and dirty way of determining if it is height based.What software are you using? Maybe...

    3d printer help (Ender 3 v2)

    Maybe I missed it but you never mentioned what type of printing surface you’re using or what brand and type of material you’re using.Don’t get an auto bed leveler. They’re not a plug and play ordeal most of the time because you have to go in and configure firmware and whatnot. It seems like...

    3d printer help (Ender 3 v2)

    I have an ender 3 pro and print pla and petg. People will say use hair spray or painters tape or alcohol. 90% of your adhesion is in your level height. Don’t use a piece of paper or a credit card. Get a set of feeler gauges and experiment. As an example, petg printed at .0025” adheres well...

    Bleeding lifters

    After contacting gsc, I figured I would offer their response for future searches.“If your protrusion height of your valves is correct and the base circle of your cams is correct then our lifters will not hold your valve open at full extension. You also do not have to put them in at full...

    Bleeding lifters

    Thank you everyone for your input. @steve ive always been under the impression that the diesel was just a cheap solvent to purge old oil and trash out. Though it does make some sense that it would give a little more than oil due to its viscosity and ability to creep out the lifter’s...

    Bleeding lifters

    What if everyone has bled lifters down for the past 30 years for no reason (other than to purge contaminants)? Just going to present a scenario here, nobody hang me for it.Argument 1: The FSM says to do it. I don't have a fsm in front of me now, but does it say why? I mean it also has a...

    Bleeding lifters

    I’ve bled down my lifters for years using various solvents, oils, ultrasonic cleaner, etc. Went to install a set of new gsc lifters today and noticed that their install sheet said something quite the opposite of the standard procedure I’ve used for 10+ years now...

    Thank you for the detailed response.

    Ask Us Anything!

    Did you guys ever have trouble adapting to 321 stainless? I’ve been welding for several years and the whole 321/347 filler seems to just be harder to keep a consistent puddle profile. I’ve tried everything I can think of (angle of torch, amperage, flow, pulse settings, etc). For some reason...

    Post the BEST looking DSM

    The thread you revived is from before some of the forum users were even born. Not ragging on you, just think that’s wild.

    TurboGlenn has passed away.

    Very unfortunate to hear. I learned a lot from him in my earlier days on the forum.

    2G Lowering seat floor

    Here’s a few pictures of how I did mine. Moved down and closer to the center console to get away from the cage more. Just tilting the seat with the side nearest the door higher than the other is the fastest and easiest way to gain some clearance and actually doesn’t feel as unnatural as you...
