    Ford 4000 Diesel 4 cyl smoking and missing

    Jet star 3 clutch

    I know this is off base but a few years ago Mr Muhlenkamp posted about how he did counterweights with tires filled with concrete instead of a 55 gallon barrel. I would like to ask a few questions about the specifics of that setup. Could we talk at some point? Billy Alexander
