      March 11, 2019 at 6:20 pm Good evening fellas, In the process removing old airseps and installing my new Envirovents on my 330 Diamonds.

The coolant plug is npt as well as the combiner block(which is next to go.) I guess it’s just a mixed bag of fasteners. On a side note cleaned …

      October 31, 2018 at 8:53 am As I prepare to winterize my 6TBA’s and as a first time diesel owner I’ve searched the forum looking for information regarding the storage and conditioning of diesel fuel and have not found anything significant.

      This topic has 3 replies, has 3 voices, and was last updated byBob Patterson 5 years ago

      September 4, 2018 at 7:55 pm I’m looking for a cummins surveyor and some advice for a boat I’m trying to buy in Long Island. I see there are a few guys from my area on here. I am absolutely blown away by the accumulation of knowledge on this sight. Wow. Like many others I can rebuild a smallblock in my sleep but diesel is all new to me. Thanks in advance.
