He was not selling it. He responded to my sale ad on face book. I had to ask him how much he paid for it and he said 1500 dollars 3 years ago. Pretty good for a pretty much new machine i thought. Although i do not know what they were bringing back then.
I started selling military Generators not that long ago as hobby. April of 2021 was my first generator and i knew nothing about them. tonight i got a call from a guy responding to my sale post. turns out he lives 5 miles down the road and says he has one like mine for sale but smaller? He...
So 5 minutes worth of work tonight after i had an aha moment. Although i have a new manifold it did not come with knobs. i was unable to get the knobs off the old valves. No set screws just rusted on. pulled so hard i broke the pin holding the round part inside the knob on the shaft of all...
i do not need the backer rings anymore as i have a new manifold coming. My old backer rings worked and the orings sealed the leaks but i just have too much wear in my valves and have taken them apart for the last time. found a really good deal on the manifold so its a no brainer for me to have...
Parker will not release the size of those backer rings. My local store contacted corporate and he was told they would only sell them as part of the kit and would not even give a part number. Great business practices
So still waiting for that fall weather, but gotta keep going on the truck. Yesterday loaded up the cardboard and plastic recycling and took it 5 miles down the road to the drop off bins. Today I got the Deoxit in the mail so i will work on the fuse panel this week. I also received my new...
I just bought one of these little Ini power generators and was looking at the auto start units on Ebay, but had no idea what i would do with it. FYI if you have not seen one of these generators and have watched the youtube videos, and the guy talks about the magic button on the back for...
I just picked up in Capac, a month ago. its a tow yard, but they had a very large military Wheel loader with forks and loaded 2 mep 802s on trailers onto my trailer. Only thing to keep in mind with trailer mounted units is the they usually will not fit between the fenders on your trailer. I...
I am going to take Mullaney's sugestion so waiting on some deoxit to come in the mail as it is not sold locally and not real confident in just using contact cleaner. So did some more work tonight after the funky weather passed. pumped the cab up by hand and changed the wiper blades, painted...
Had storms this morning so not a lot of time to work on the truck but i replaced the glad hand seals tonight which allows me to keep the dummy covers on thus keeping dirt out and not having those swinging around going down the road. I went to figure out the lights again. pulled K8 relay and it...
So hopefully no one feels like i am hi jacking this thread as i will apologize in advance, but just like the original poster GP is trying to withhold the credit card fees, 6 people i went through this morning and finally 1 person sent an email to finance to get this reconsidered. I am also...
I bought a 802 out of Wisconsin last week, yard would not let my broker schedule pick up till tuesday of this week. and then 8:30am Tuesday sent a message saying the Generator is not here. Talked with Gov Planet and they called the yard and then collapsed the sale. They better give me my...
glad it worked for you. I did total rebuild on the hydraulic pump and still can not get it to work. Kicker is it worked before i took it apart. How are you bleeding the air out?
I took the title option from Gov planet so it was a Florida title, but not really sure it matters. You will need to have an inspection done, and hopefully get the right person at the BMV. Because of weight it will have to have commercial plates
Pouring down rain today. So i spent some time going through the mk28 basic issue kit i bought for things i am putting on the LMTV. tools, locks, wheel chocks, document bag installed on my door. lots of stuff in that box that will not go on the lmtv and i have no idea what it is or used for.
