    OH THE HORROR!!!!!!!! SOME FIEND HAS ABSCONDED WITH MY LITTLE BUDDY! Poor Ellie Mae is beside herself with grief.:wreckerman893: He was snatched from his perch atop a stack of ammo cans in broad daylight in the middle of the vendor section. If the perps are reading this please return Elmo...

    Starting issues on deuce!

    I concur with the above diagnosis. I replaced the starter on my little chinese tractor and it wouldn't hit a lick even with hot batteries and my pickup hooked to it. The negitive ground cable was corroded where it went into the batttery terminal....cleaned it good and she fired right up.

    There are some good Steel Soldiers out that way. I'm sure one or more of them will jump in and help you out.

    MVPA Show in Huntsville, AL

    Temps are expected to bust 100 for the next few days. We are hoping for a big civilain crowd Saturday (the only day open to the public). I did an interview with a local TV station today (channel 31 I think) and I stressed that it would be a cool place to spend the day with the family looking...

    MVPA Show in Huntsville, AL

    More vehicles and vendors moved in today including a SCUD missile launcher. Elmo and Ellie Mae were reunited (Elmo pulled guard duty in the M927 last night) and are shacking up in the center tonight. There are some colorful characters here. Here are some pics,

    oil for fuel

    With no turbo to force air into it my guess is that the "nifty 250" would smoke like a coal fired steam engine if you go too high on the mixture. Years ago a lot of trucking companies poured their waste oil into the fuel tanks of their trucks......that was before the computer controlled...

    Huntsville al. To annapolis md.

    I'm up here for the MVPA convention but I have nowhere to store it locally. I could come back and drive it down to my place next week (I have to drive my M927 home Sunday). If you can't get a truck booked PM me. If you need to buy some time let me know and I may can put the fix in with Teresa.

    Anyone ever found this in your radiator????

    Now would be a good time to flush the system and put new coolant in there.

    New to all of this paperwork stuff could use some help

    Since your friend bought the trailer he will have to apply and pay for the SF-97 from GL using his account. They will send him the SF-97 (eventually) and he can take that to his local DMV and get it titled. He can then sell it to you and you can title it in your name. This is the legal way...

    New Hydrogen Tech, very promising

    Ideas and concepts are good but until the technolgy can be mass produced and make money for a company that produces it I don't think we'll see it on the market. Hydrogen has a lot of potential but getting it distributed like we do gas and diesel will require a big infastructure. One of it's...

    Solar Panel for M109 Shop Van

    You will have to mount them on a rack that can be lowered to get them out of the slipstream while rolling down the road. The other alternative would be to mount them on a pole that could be set up and turned to keep them at the right solar angle throughout the day. You can make a battey bank...

    Jack for a Deuce and a half

    The issue lug wrench and handle are adequate but are (IMHO) a PITA to use. The best investment you can make for changing tires without an one inch air wrench is a one inch pull bar and a bud socket.......you'll also need an extension for the rear wheels. Resting the pull bar on a jack stand...
