4000 hours

So my prochem Hydraulic PTO is going to turn 4000 hours tomorrow. I have another tm that I'm building but the economy is not letting me finish it.

My van has 65K on it so how much longer can this van motor last? The tm is slowly self destructing cuz it's aluminum and the hydraulic system is a pita with it's leaks and overpriced parts. The van is a GMC Savanna with a 5.7 gas hog.

Give or take a few different formulas but each hour is equivalent to around 20 to 30 miles on the odometer. The wear is mostly on the engine but all the extra exposure to heat takes its toll on the wiring and cooling system.

So at even 20 miles = 1 hour PTO time your van has 145,000 miles.

Well I hope I can squeeze some more life out of it cuz we have thousands of empty homes and my customers keep moving out of the area or state.
