    Why are manual generator maual transfer switches so expensive? All I can tell is that they are 3 or 4 pole double throw swithes in a huge over size box. Harbor freight has them for over $300.00. Why are the enclosures so big? The switch looks like a gold fish in the middle of a swimming pool...

    Big day tomorrow for the MOG

    To my disappointment my MOG/S.E.E. hasn't run for years. For some reason (old age:???: I guess) I thought it was running and quit during the GL video filming. But on closer inspection it is obvious it hasn't run for years. I've been trying to resurrectct the completely dead batteries. Charged...

    refurbishing batteries

    Won't Shut down

    Can somebody point where in the TM that talks about normal engine shut down and the parts affected. My M944A1 doesn't. I have to pull the emergency stop. I assume you push the start lever down the the battery disconnect. There must be a solenoid that shuts off the fuel. Butch M944A1 S.E.E. 5...

    Recovery Volunteer

    An intriguing question. Lets dialog and see. First and for most. What is my opinion worth, not money? I could deem something good while somebody else would call it trash, Liability? What if I think it is OK, somebody gets it home and it is a piece of garbage? May be we can developer a check...
