    Search function very picky

    Looking for an old post, I typed in the number of an instruction sheet, that I knew was in the post, PM-32333. The on-site search function came up with zero hits. When I did the same on Google, I got my post in one of the results....

    Tested fuel burning heaters today

    Made some progress on the coolant heater. Replaced the control valve with another that I was able to calibrate close to the specified flow rate. Next, I went thru the starting procedure and could hear the flame catch after about 2 minutes. Good news it's running, however the flame detector...

    Battery group number for M35A2

    Batteries need care, well treated they will last longer. Keep them fully charged, when connected in series, charge each separately from time to time to maintain equal state of charge. IMHO, if you think a solargizer is going to help you care for a battery, then you are asking for trouble, the...

    Battery group number for M35A2

    Don, the reserve capacity is usually measured in minutes, that's how long it can sustain a discharge rate of 25 amps before the voltage drops to 10.5.....

    updated pics of my hemtt restoration

    On the HEMTT I looked at the other day, a fuel filter was located as marked in the image below, does yours have a clear/amber bowl, is it heated and what micron rating do you use? I have the same filter installed on my 8x8 and am curious.... Do you have a better image of this detail?

    Fuel Economy of Alternative fuels

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: Fuel Economy of Alternative fuels The MPG for the multifuel engine is pretty much directly related to the BTU value of the fuel, which is easy to look up on the net, #2 diesel gives you more miles than biodiesel, for example.

    Battery group number for M35A2

    The 6TN, 6TL, 6TMF etc, batteries have a higher reserve capacity than the common commercial replacements (twice what Optima has) and they have vents that permit under water operation to about 4 ft other than that, any two batteries will work fine for the deuce. Make sure they are identical...

    M35A2 -Clear Dashboard Light Cover Lenses

    Got the 356 bulbs from bulbdirect.com and cost me $6.30 for ten plus shipping...they put out more light than the 1829 types and the life expectancy isn't very long, so I'm keeping my extras. LED type lights may be more complicated to regulate intensity wise.

    solid state volt. reg.

    It should work for both the M37 and M35, check it before you decide to get rid of it.
