    Reserve on auctions?

    I am not talking about the minimum bid, I am talking about reaching a reserve before the bid is accepted. Looks like over a grand on MEP003's! Ain't getting it from me!!!

    Reserve on auctions?

    When did they start putting a reserve on auctions? I am looking at generators and they all have a reserve, a fairly high one for what I am looking at from the looks of it.

    One for you 1070 guys, NEVER give up!

    That is exactly where I was thinking of when I saw that. He knew to keep the front wheels on the high side where the driest dirt was and it paid off.

    A rollback is almost as hard to get stuck as a backhoe. Bed down and push, bed down and push, repeat after me.;) I have gotten out of some sandy, muddy and snowy conditions that way. Not fast and miserable work but it gets you out.

    One for you 1070 guys, NEVER give up!

    Just goes to show that persistence sometimes pays off. That was what, 10 gallons of fuel in that section? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-JDUzH2n-4

    You don't think that flywheel is in need of a turning? Looks a bit on the rough side.

    Helluva banging noise and won't turn over

    CSM, Technically yes, IF it were the original from the factory starter and even then they were changing over at that time. I keep forgetting that 30 years ago is 1985! That is depressing, I am getting old. I have never heard an engine "Banging" due to a low battery, Solenoid chatter or not. If...

    Helluva banging noise and won't turn over

    Just as an aside, Do NOT bang on the starter unless you plan on replacing it! That worked 30 years ago when the magnets were ferrous magnets but now they are ceramic rare earth magnets and will break very easily if you hammer on them.

    Sounds like a broken crankshaft. They are famous for breaking behind Number 2 rod journal.

    Sorry Pete, Scrounger was at our site as I was breaking down and he said he would help me out , he had to drag his stuff out for someone else also. It is a nightmare maneuvering that beast around in there with people and carts and junk so I took the easiest route.
