Re: curious

The compressor is reasonably quiet.

Regarding the fill speed, I think there are charts on their website. It only takes a couple minutes per tire. If I'm close to a gas station though I use their compressor so I don't have to dig out all of the gear....lol.

Re: Goodyear Duratrac's

The Ply number is in refference to how they used to build bias ply tires. The attached article has an excellent description. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=55 The load range/ply rating branded on a tire's sidewall identifies how much load the tire is designed to carry at ...

Re: Inexpensive Glow Plug Solenoid Replacement

Very cool mod! I love the attention to detail. Carrying a small adjustable wrench could also be a solution to the Metric / Imperial dilema. I carry a set of these wrenches in my toolbox so I con't have to carry too many wrenches. They work great. http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/mastercraft-maximum...

Re: Goodyear Duratrac's

From what I understand 10 ply tires really don't exist; however, a load rating of "E" means it has a stronger sidewall to carry extra weight. The "E" rated tires will perform similar to what everyone refers to as a 10 Ply tire. "C" rated would be closer to to a 6 ply ti...

Re: Introducing Fiona!

I saw something similar at Princess Auto yesterday for around $30, it may help you troubleshoot your battery drain issue. You could do it with a standard multiplier, but you practically have to stand on your head for the fuses below the steering wheel. This would help you quickly narrow down the cir...

Re: Add-ons/mods finally done

The wheels look great, is it a rubberized coating, or more like paint? How did you mask the wheels when you sprayed them?

Re: 1993 Delica L300 Fusible Link / Relay Problem

I don't have a L300, but the picture looks like a piece of a wiring harness, it would not be a fusible link. If the connector is still good and you have continuity through the connection, it is probably not the source of your problem. It does sound like one of the fusible links has cleared based on ...
