    Ingersoll Rand Gyro-Flo air compressor, lubrication info wanted.

    Great info. Thanks for taking the time to post all that. The photo too. I was beginning to think my fenders and lift point might have been added later. I figured that that big front fitting was something important. I just added a 75ft Reelcraft hose reel (found it cheap in Canandaigua BTW) and...

    Ingersoll Rand Gyro-Flo air compressor, lubrication info wanted.

    Greetings, I just bought an old IG tow behind Mod 125 (circa 1957, 125 cfm, Continental flat head 4) w/Gyro-Flo R-125 air end (vane type). Does anyone here have experience with them? I'm interested in servicing the air-end lube, specifically checking the oil level and amount required. Also...

    Davey/Ingersoll Rand Air Compressor

    I was interested in an old tow behind (circa 1957 mod 3312 w/ Hercules flat head 6) Craigs Rochester NY area. I called the factory to see if there would be parts support. Steam Jenny bought them a while back and their website directed me to Davey (below). I think I used a contact phone # (...

    NHC250 Cummins fuel rail pressure

    I am using the #20 button. Never tried my 17. The slow-to-return-to-idle was indeed the gauge, specifically the air in the line to cab. The air would compress as fuel pressure builds then expand when you get out of the throttle, pushing extra fuel into the injectors. The issue went away after I...

    v-100 turret basket

    Here is the spent round boxes that I mentioned in your PM. The 50 cal trays were fab'd from 1x1 angle bent on same machine that did the basket floor (1-1/2x1-1/2?). The trays got tabs welded on after set up. The pic inside the V - all parts fab'd are seen in bare steel, tunnel, tool box...

    Here are some pictures, drawings and diagrams that Rory sent me when I was making mine. I thought I PM'd you them (with others and details) but they must not have uploaded, here are the 9 most relevant.

    818 now with turbo and pics.

    I agree with Jwaller. The small oil line is a concern. Discharge oil tends to be whipped full of air, like top of a black cappuccino. The nat aspirated heads are the ones with the open ports though I'm not sure if that means all of them. They do get swapped sometimes. Pretty easy to tell if you...

    WisDOT on the warpath again!

    I don't think there will be a call to arms over this issue. It is probably best if that aspect is not even be mentioned. update- Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker recently signed into law the Personal Protection Act. Details are in the Nov 2011 American Rifleman (below, second page is in the...

    Engine wont rev to 2600 rpm

    Yes. The LDS has many similarities with the LDT and LD. There are differences but the Troubleshooting shows many service aspects as the same. Unfortunately the HP/Torque graph is just the LDS output. Does anyone have a graph for the LD or LDT?? One of the LDS dash #'s had a higher operating...

    Engine wont rev to 2600 rpm

    Operating range is 1200-2600rpm. No load max rpm is 2850-2900rpm (page11). Make sure your gauge is accurate before setting it (page 30-33). Also see page 13... ( LDS465 Troubleshooting Manual, attached .pfd)

    Engine wont rev to 2600 rpm

    If you are using 9.00x20's might be an inaccurate gauge. (BTW, it won't perform like your other 3 vehicles)
