    DRASH (GETT) Modification Discussion

    Why not spend some money on a 3 phase inverter that supports 100% unbalanced loads? You give yourself emergency power backup with batteries and solar, and if need be, start the generator to charge the battery bank. Money better spent. Run two legs of the inverter to your panel, or put a 3...

    There is a pull pin at the rear. It's a steel pin that drops in and prevents it from turning. My guess is it would allow 3 degrees if you were applying pressure from both ways. Let me know if that is what it was. Don't feel bad if that's it, it took me a moment to find it as well.

    Advice needed! Loss of power / torque M1083

    Ronmar, thank you for the advice. I will get on that today. Also, do you have any other thoughts on what it may be? The reason I ask is because I can throttle the engine up no problem. I hear a very clear whinning/something noise coming from the engine as the throttle increases. I am not getting...

    Advice needed! Loss of power / torque M1083

    Hello, and thank you in advance for the help. I recently replaced the bracket that holds the power steering pump and the air compressor together.

    Power steering mounting bracket and advise

    Oh, it definitely snapped when I was trying to tighten it down. It wasn't seated correctly. And or the shaft ends may be toast which is why it didn't re align. I had lots of stuff taking priority in KY so I didn't have time to troubleshoot shoot it at all. I truly don't know where the oil is...
