I burn them up by getting them packed full of mud . Also running two, dual speed coolng fans, electric fuel pump, two 1000 cca batterys. It just takes its toll on things. Plus high rpms never seem to be good for them.

Amen to that. Muddy water really makes a quick mess. I recently had my battery's ground wire corrode with water and mud which kept my truck from starting yesterday. Just the way I wanted to start the day. lol

Are you sure your battery's dead or is it not grounding like mine just was. At first I thought dead battery.

Now today at the desert I fried my electric fan.The one that fried I pulled from a tauras, but I think this time I'm going to look for a dual setup. Hopefully its not to rainy out tomorrow so I can pull one from the junk yard. I think a newer civic fan should do.

You have no idea..... I've broke two 35 spline outers on my D60 already, sheared some teeth off the ring gear in it too. Among countless other things.
