Please put your first name/location in your 'Signature'
(Preview)
When we went to this this forum, we lost the member 'name' and 'location' on the avatar pic.

So, I'm as...

Any ideas on how to correct this?

I never knew about these. Serious heavy duty truck and industrial engines. This is a really neat video. Unfortunately the audio quality is poor, but on the positive side, the "reporter" seems to actually be knowledgeable about engines & machining.
