    The Goat went for its first swim

    Looks like I need to upload some info PS Magazine style on the Gama Goat. Since I was part owner of this particular vehicle a year ago, I collected as much information as I could on it. Here is a teaser.

    Hmmm..so it's more like a regulator, something else to investigate....

    Engine Prelube Info....

    If the bypass valve is open, obviously the pressure drop across the filter(s) becomes zero... I installed a differential pressure gauge to monitor the filters, but haven't used it (=truck) much since.

    Multifuel engine life

    I'm thinking about your explanation of the "schirmventilferstellung" (item 20, in the figure), if you can restrict the airflow, perhaps an engine braking feature is also possible....like the throttle on a gas engine...never heard of restricting intake airflow on a diesel....

    route clearing trucks

    Don't know how appropriate this is, but I have one of these pintle hooks for sale. Probably from a Gama Goat, PM me for details. That's one heavy duty bumper to mount that crane!

    Multifuel engine life

    RE: multifuel motors used in farm tractors It would be interesting to see some German applications of the MAN "Wisper Engine". Design details in particular.

    Engine Prelube Info....

    The bypass valve in the filter base open when the differerential pressure (the pressure across the filters) exceeds 15 psi. Don't understand where the rpm comes into the picture.... This pressure is a function of blockage within the filters and the clean (original) filter diff pressure is less...

    The Beast emerges

    Worked a little on the front axles today. Removed a shock that had been dented and acted as a solid strut and aligned the axles. The torn torque rod was replaced a couple of days ago and all steering knuckle boots were removed yesterday, all torn, I'm just waiting for more Aervoe paint, which...

    Good deal, I paid over $40 for my copy several years ago, it has come in handy with complete schematics etc.

    Good observation Andy. Fact is that I traded the delivery of the dolly (from Florida) for six new 1100-20 NDCC's. Jason mounted 4 of them on the spot, great guy!

    Maybe it's time to investigate the arctic kit, it heats both the coolant and the engine oil....Northern Minnesota, sounds cold even in the Summer. :-)
