MXA MOTOCROSS RACE TEST: 2018 HUSQVARNA FC250 | Fuel Injection/Nozzle

8. If the message wasn’t clear, perhaps the fully adjustable long-travel suspension—nearly 10 inches at each end—will drive the point home. Up front, 47mm Showa cartridge fork soaks up the hits, while twin Öhlins piggyback-reservoir shocks handle the duties out back. The suspension feel leans towards the stiffer side initially. It is more or less on par with ADV options on the market, avoiding the seesawing that leggy off-road machines can sometimes do. Once you’ve taken to the trail and set to work, the suspension moves through the travel in a plush and controlled manner, keeping the chassis in line or helping it settle up quickly over rough spots.

Then I attaching the reservoir hose to the new new master cylinder and rubbed some RTV sealant onto the mating surface to prevent leakage through the firewall. I pushed the clean, shiny part into the hole in my firewall, and attached the hardline.

Adaptive cruise control is an advanced system that automatically adjusts the speed of a car to maintain a safer distance from the preceding vehicles. The system can increase or decrease the car’s speed in order to maintain a safer distance.

Different generations of the Chevy Silverado 1500 have had transmission issues along the way. Some of 2007-2013 Silverado transmission problems have included slipping out of gear while driving and going into reverse quickly or jamming sometimes. In some cases, the pickup truck doesn’t work at all.

If your next project involves using EFI, consider the latest in electronics that now combine GM transmission control with EFI. For example, several companies now offer 4L60E and 4L80E control as part of their EFI systems. Holley’s Dominator EFI offers this, as does Big Stuff3. Just recently, Holley introduced the Terminator LS EFI system, retro-fit for multi-point LS, that will optionally control a 4L60E transmission. This eliminates the cost of purchasing a stand-alone controller. FiTech also offers a similar control opportunity.

Danish provider of control systems for generators, DEIF Group, has released software updates incorporating several new features for its PPU 330 paralleling and protection unit and AGC-4 and AGC200 genset controllers.

I can see a certain level of some of these driver aids but it’s jumped the shark. Inattentive idiots are using this stuff as an excuse to be even bigger morons. That’s a net loss.

Separately Tuesday, Harley said its U.S. motorcycle sales continued to fall in its most recent quarter, but overall profit jumped.

While four cylinders may not seem like enough to power a big truck, Chevy says the four-banger delivers 310 horsepower and 348 pound-feet of torque. The company also promises comparable payload capacity to the 3.3-liter and 3.6-liter V6s offered in the F-150 and Ram 1500, respectively, as well as 0 to 60 mph time of less than seven seconds. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rates the engine at 20 mpg in the city, 23 mpg on the highway, and 20 mpg in a combined cycle.

Many of the receipts show what type of fluid was used, where the repair was done, and what vehicle behavior prompted the garage visit in the first place. Plus the papers show the vehicle’s odometer reading, giving a good idea of how much the Jeep has been driven over time. Here’s a plot I made showing just that:

When General Motors recalled millions of its pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles back in 2016 for software glitches that could hinder the front airbags from deploying in a crash, the GMC Sierra Hybrid also featured on the lists of trucks that were recalled. This truck is identical to the Chevy Silverado and has significantly evolved over the years which included its engine – from 2005 to 2007 and 2009 to 2013 the truck’s 5.3-liter Vortec V-8 was paired to a mild hybrid system. This improvement boosted fuel economy but it later came to be a liability as the truck took on miles.
