    Runaway Multifuel cutoff?

    Had a Cat V8 turbo runaway on us at work last year in a 90k aircraft tug. They are auto, so had to starve it of air. First tried a chalk against the airbox but couldn't get a tight seal. Ripped the airbox cover and filter off next and for a stupid second started to use my hands covering the...

    Optima Battery - Which One?

    Dang, this is the largest group of support I've seen. My less than year lifespan of a redtop matches the results on other boards I visit of not worth the money. I like my plain ole Wally World group 65 1000ampers with a three year warranty. I know they get killed in the power carts on the...

    M1008 pintle hitch

    Got mine for a little more at tractor supply, but wanted to tow right away. If I had to do it again, I'd try a little harder to back the big stock pintle swivel nut off while the mount plate was still on the truck. To take that out means a complete unbolt of darn near everything on that...

    She lives! Finally I suppose dried out enough with the intake open and glow plugs out it spun over again with the starter. Screwed back in the plugs and she fired right over pushin' about 5g of water out the exhaust. Back to the mud today!
