    POE/Mineral compressor oil

    I also have about 15 gallons of ref oil and haven't tested it. Have you noticed any differences with either POE or mineral oil? Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

    Who, if anybody, is going to Aberdeen this year?

    Visited the rally for the first time on Thursday. Typically visited on Friday but traveling through from Ocean City MD it worked best to stop by on Thursday. Many vendors and bought several things (Jerry can, receiver hitch, spray lube, magazines (to read not to shoot)). Stopped by Scroungers...

    Anyone headed to Chambersburg, PA for the 7/28 GL auction?

    Last week I went to recover a MEP803 at Letterkenny. Gov planet has an off base pickup/ storage lot. Pickup between 0800 and 1400 (not 4 pm like me). Just show and they have a wheel loader with forks to do load outs. Nice people there. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    East coast to West coast trip - Free part taxi - standby assistance requested

    Finally made it back to read the whole thread. I really think it was a good trip but it sure must have been scary sometimes. Have you been using the truck lately? Most of all I'm impressed that a 5-ton made it a whole way across the country. A trip of a lifetime. Sent from my LG-LS995 using...

    Did the Army have skid mounted centrifuges?

    I have not seen any sold surplus auctions either. I have seen fuel separators but I know they are different things. l do know a guy that has a sub centrifuge that he uses for his biofuel process. I should have a pic so where.

    East coast to West coast trip - Free part taxi - standby assistance requested

    Well glad you made it back home. Im sure it will be a while before you make that trip again but if you really want to sounds like Alaskaboy will have an empty seat. :) Overall your trip was not a total loss. If you remember when we hooked up my air grinder to cut the holes in the bumper for the...

    Fort Bragg 5 ton assistance?

    Makes sense why you went with this truck and not a A2. I also look at cost to operate. Bought a BMY with no year listed. With my research of the truck and Maryland's 25 year Historic plates somehow the research showed how it became a 1990 vintage.

    East coast to West coast trip - Free part taxi - standby assistance requested

    Bumpers are thicker than I remembered but we got them. You should have a much brighter trip once all wired up. I was really impressed with your purchase and to have the curage to go cross country in a 30 year truck. One other SS person spoke about a Infared gun to check temps on the critical...

    East coast to West coast trip - Free part taxi - standby assistance requested

    Just found this thread. I live in Hagerstown area. Im sure you are well past this but if not I can assist. I know a day late.:???: An adventure of a life time. By the way you didnt say why you are doing the journey (unless I am a day late for that too).

    Best for thinning WMO

    I agree with Beyond Biodiesel. Unless you centrifuge your oil the gasoline will make two distint layers in your oil. I currently use the 5 gallon bucket method to mix settle pour my black diesel. Mix at 4 gallon wmo and one gallon gasoline (gas in bucket first wmo on top to mix well) allow to...

    M923A2 Recovery from Barstow 485 Miles to home

    Congrats on the semi worry free trip. 500 miles is a long recovery. When my two sons and I bought ours from New Castle last year i was lucky enough to notice a local trucking firm hauling military stuff. Talked to the owner and worked a deal for him to haul ours back when he was dead heading...

    Anyone headed to Chambersburg, PA for the 7/28 GL auction?

    Mechanicsburg PA Pickup I know this is a old post but I wanted to share some information to the new GL buyers. I went to Mechanicsburg to get a fuel separator and a file cabinet safe a couple months ago. I was sweating last trip because at first I couldnt find my insurance card. This base...

    "New" MEP-002A Purchase

    Thanks all for the tank repair advise. Once I get some of my other projects completed I will get back on that mep. Currently its been too cold to work in my shop so I have been doing other things. About the Sparta sale. Was that thru GL or Iron planet? What was the sale number. Just like to...

    "New" MEP-002A Purchase

    Hi 002a users I bought an MEP 002a out of New Castle (GL) about a year ago on a trailer. When I was going over it I found that the fuel tank had a bunch of crap (sludge) in it. Once I removed it and flushed it out some pin holes opened up. A couple were about 1/8 in size a couple places...

    M105A2s at Wright Patterson

    Unless you have a 3/4 ton truck I would not even consider a double stack. Pulled several 105's and you can tell they are back there. I hauled a MKT with a F-250 IDI Ford and it was all it wanted to do with 90 degrees temps (since changed the clogged radiator much cooler now both temp and...

    1965 m101a1 Trailer out of New Castle Del

    Just an idea for other recoveries. I now pack a grease gun with a point adapter and a cordless drill with a 1/8 drill bit. Coat the drill bit with a layer of grease. This way the grease will trap the shavings on the bit not the inside of the hub and drill the center of the hubcap. Pump in enough...
