He ain't heavy, he's my brother.

Or maybe Robert Plant ?

That's not so bad, all things considered. I thought it'd be worse than that.






Still not sure what it means, but there is such a sign! Must be a UK/European thing...??

In this case 'plant' means equipment and in this case it would most likely be construction or mining equipment such as excavators, cranes etc. Anything big, heavy and not road worthy.

It is basically a warning that you might think you have right of way but physics always trumps a sense of self importance.

What Series folk with the old 2.25L petrol engine need is someone who is really good at EFI develop an EFI conversion for that engine. May not help much if any on the highway but it could make a huge difference around town. And I have discovered that EFI is much smoother on the trail.

im very surprised that nobody has does and EFI system yet for these motors..

Its been done with Megasquirt and a TBI. Ignition has been done with Magasquirt and Ford EDIS.

Most enthusiasts like the quaint simplicity of a carb that matches the rest of the truck technology and image with a stock engine.

The rochester does give more flow into the engine and more oomph but is one thirsty carb. I suppose EFI on the 2.25 is a fun little technical project but seems a bit silly to me in terms of both fuel efficiency and performance increase. If fuel efficiency is your thing get a diesel. The only time my 2.25 had real get up and go was with an engine hoist. Embrace the slowness, accept your turtle like meandering with 2.25 variants or replace the engine, oh and transmission. What no salisbury in the rear? have to change that too. Now your cookin but do you really trust those brakes?
