I have built a couple of phase convertors using a 3 phase motor and a pony motor. To work well, you need to use a 3 phase motor that is twice as big as what you are running. A 10 hp for a 5 hp load.
I have installed many phase converters and have even had to use a transformer to go from 240 to 480 volt. You have to use one that is big enough and run the right size wire but will work the same as having 3 phase from power company. If you need help, the guy that helped me engineer out the...
I did not ground mine thinking it had to have a good ground if installed in metal dash but thinking I am wrong as I have been having turn signal problems not working all the time (don't know if this is related) and was told last night that I had no tail lights the last time I drove it. Was...
Thanks for the pictures. I bought 30 boxes of led lights on close out last year at Walmart to do my truck. Found out today that they decided to not have Christmas parade this year but will decorate it any way. I built a 24 to 12 volt converter that works on small scale but haven't tried it...
I got mine from Saturn. Mine only came with one brass nut per package and will fit drivers side. The passenger side will not fit I think left hand thread. The drivers side had the nut on outside of arm and is like the brass nut that came with Saturn and passenger side (assistant drivers...

I keep reading about replacing fuel filters. If you drive it only a couple hundred miles a year (I check them almost every time I drive it and never have found any water or bad crap in them) how often should they be changed? Also how often should the oil and filters be changed?
I had wanted to have a sprayed on bed liner but have decided that i is way too expensive so have been following this post. The primer for rust sounds great. Will a gallon do the bed? Sherwin Williams said that it would cover 400 sq feet for about $40. Is this what you are talking about?
$40 to $50 for a flasher? I have had a problem for some time with mine not working but evertime I start to check it (without doing anything other than turn them on) they work. The only thing that I have noticed when they don't flash, the front and rear are on but ligh on turn signal lever is...
