    M114 sniper platform

    As long as the "powers that be" don't have a problem with me owning one, I don't have a problem with them owning one.

    Camp Shelby

    My former unit had a brigade there so I spent a lot of time at "Camp Swampy". :D I've picked up there before and had almost zero trouble with the GL folks. [thumbzup] When I picked up my wrecker and two deuces I had to deal with GL and folks from the MS Nat Guard. Appearently some items are...

    Veggie/diesel mix

    I get it at a convience store enroute to my job. There was another place selling it for 3.50 a gallon but they are habitually out (maybe someone else discovered the secret). My price for fuel is about 2.25 a gallon if you count my time and effort to strain the veggie.

    Veggie/diesel mix

    Four weeks of running 1/2 veggie and 1/2 kerosene (4 bucks a gallon) and the Ranger is running great. No problems starting so far. I am going to build my heat exchanger and switching system as soon as I can so I can cut down my overhead. If I can get more clean oil I will be converting a deuce...

    Any members own a wood gas powered mv?

    This is something I would like to try in my spare time (HAHAHAHAHA). It would be great just to have the knowledge just in case the fuel situation gets worse. I think it would work on a diesel...I have seen Detroit diesels that ran backup generators at my old unit configured to run on natural...

    Driving Habit

    What he said. If you know how to split shift low and high its like having two extra gears. Pulls a lot better when you have a load. Putting it in low range at low speeds also keeps it from bucking and jumping around and to me it seems to steer easier.

    Iron Mike Museum, Columbus, GA open Saturdays 1000-1600 hrs.

    I have met Larry ("Papa Bear" on SS) who is one of the movers and shakers of the museum. He and the whole crew are good folks. We are working with the GA MPVA and the Dixie Division (AL) of the MPVA about holding a big event next spring. Columbus has a lot to offer for us MV oriented folks...

    '08 SS Ga. Rally poll - please read & vote

    Helen was a great place IMHO and the time frame works for me. I have seven days off each month and they fall at the end of the month. I also have to consider fuel cost and the fact that I will probably be driving the M52 which is slow and sucks fuel. That being said I will make every effort to...

    Waste Oil Storage

    I laid my 275 gal "tote" on it's side and used a pressure washer to clean out the gunk inside. I have a portable 12 volt pump with filter on it. I use it to pump WVO and WMO and it works like a charm. Got it from Northern Hydrolics. When you pump out of a container make sure to stop about 5...
