they are also pretty easy to remove, disassemble and clean too. care must be taken on adjusting the fuel rack.....its been 40 years since Ive messed with them. I did it in the kitchen (clean stainless tables) of Moores Riverboat Restaurant years ago, for the owners old Lima crane dredge he used...
chained up 4 wheels today as the snow just keeps coming. I usually put chains on the front, and one set of singles on the rear/front tires outboard. Never needed any more than that. maybe I'll get to try out the apocalypse plow this year.
the governor's working. I wanted to test it thinking maybe it could be stuck in the unloaded position without air pressure. Mine is fine. after removing the ice from the line, everything is fine. I started it up every day now and then bleed the tanks a little. No moisture comes out. Before I had...

there was a ice cube about 2 inches long in the air supply line at the air dryer. If I used copper, instead of that famous plastic/nylon crap, I could have heated it up yesterday with my propane torch instead of laying on the frozen ground becoming a ice cube myself.
