For the last couple of years I have fought that door. I didn't even get it out of the door I used electronic contacts cleaner and sprayed it through the door handle hole and bolted it back in. and it worked the first time I tried.

I bought a good quality laser level, and it saved my bacon. The Harbor Freight laser level was a impossible to get right, and it was not even close. I have a gravity flow septic system and the depth is critical to get right. I was digging in the wrong place. I had to move it out another...

Well, I am not retired, but I am pretty sure I will not have any more time to do it when I am. It is all about priorities.

Not sure where I read it but one source said 1/8" per foot on the leach field, and lots of sources say 1/4" per foot on all the plumbing leading to the septic tank. When I asked a friend of mine who has installed septic systems for a living for over 40 years he said it should be level because...

I am going to change my focus from digging the trench for the power line to installing the septic system. (I have a lot of work for my SEE). I have been told that I need to make the leach field as level as possible. For the power line trench I did not care as long as the depth was at least...

SEE HMMH HME Owners The number under the topic is the post number, to convert to the page divide by 20 and add 1 to the value. So for example: for discussion on fabrication 9/20 = 0 + 1 or page 1 for NAPA oil and fuel filters 31 / 20 = 1 + 1 or page 2...

I looked back through my EI orders and saw that I ordered the replacement master cylinder back in December of 2018, so it has been a while. Since then I moved about 190 miles south west, and have most of my worldly possessions divide between two shipping containers while we build our house...

yeah, I went through several rounds of bleeding the brakes and replaced the master cylinder and reservoir. Lots of not cheap dot 5. This thread has a lot of info on building a pressurized bleeding set up for the two reservoirs. Unfortunately for me I discovered too late where the leak is, and...

I was looking for information on connecting an air hose up to the SEE, and came across this old exchange between 911joeblow and The Flu Farm on the subject, but there did not seem to be any resolution. Does anyone know where to get the fittings to connect an air hose to the tanks? I understand...

Knobby57, I was looking for some info on the air system and found this post Trailer tank used for accessories. So I think you will have some work dealing with that too. Small potatoes compared to your tranny issues, but thought you would rather know sooner than later.

I don't drive on the highway, and I don't drive fast. I bought some relatively cheap tires from Simple Tire Harvest King that have aggressive tread for more traction. I believe they were manufactured in India. If you search on 12.5 x 20 for FLU you will get very few hits Continental, Pirelli...

It seems like it is a common mod that they did in the field to cut the pins off and hinge the doors on the stubs. I bought replacement pins, I think from E.I. It was a trick to get the remains of the old pins out, but nothing a torch , 6 lb sledge, an a lot of determination couldn't deal...

My brake lines are a mess, I don't have brakes other than the emergency brake. I don't get up enough speed that I really miss them.

I think I replaced mine with just 3/4" standard pitch bolts, I used some nylon lock nuts. Not original equipment, but keeps the FOP place.

No I don't have one, I am not sure where I could even get one. I may have to borrow yours :LOL:

It's not exactly flat, but so far that is not an issue. Before I am done with this trench I will have to deal with terrain, and rocks. Fortunately when it gets steep it will be in the direction I am digging so I don't think it is much of a roll hazard. One advantage I have is that there...

I am sure I will get some well deserved ribbing. I have never operated a backhoe before. No one could accuse me of being an efficient operator, I am learning as I go. So this is all just kudos to my SEE. This is what I did with just 1 tank of fuel. About 330 feet at average depth of 5 feet.

My Dodge RAM 3500 is a 2005 with a 6 speed manual transmission. I intentionally looked for one that was pre Obama era regulations.

Well maybe it is just because it got cold at the time that I added the anti-gel, but since both the truck and the FLU started smoking so bad it seemed to be connected. I don't think I added more than the recommended amount, but I got a full sized jug. I figured it as 4 oz per 30 gallons...

Well after reading the rest of the comments, maybe I will just add OTC injector cleaner. I added the anti-gel to my RAM 3500 too and it is smoking really bad. A friend thinks that I may have a bad injector on it. I drove it about 45 miles to get the drum of AW32, and it seemed to stop...
