This is interesting. The infrared cameras on my security system. Does not pick up the light very well off the rapco brand paint. You can see the original CARC glows! The areas I touched up with rapco, looks dark.( around the door bottom and half the storage box) At first I thought it was the red...
Possible scenario... First Gulf war. Troops roll up on some dug in Iraqis. The Iraqis decide not to turn and run. (Big mistake) Soldier A comes up with a daring plan to break the stalemate! Soldier A will drive, while soldier B mans the rifle. The troops decided to use the earthen berm in front...
Well this is concerning! I pull that brass valve, and indeed its a pressure relief valve. The only problem it opens at 235 psi!
On top of that, the normal pressure relief valve show signs of opening. (150 psi) ((grease had sprayed out on the case))
The only thing is the gauges show normal 120...
No. It's some kind of valve. The inlet and outlet ports are defined, and the overpressure valve is on the side. So I'm not sure what the part does. It started chuffing air this week. I though the purge valve was sticking, but it was working correct. The secondary purge is coming from this valve...
I have this one on my truck. I'm trying to figure out what the brass valve does. It's not the relief valve or the purge valve.
haha sorry I just realized I did not load the pic!
Yeah EMR. I have found that the small chargers will only hold a voltage. I use two professional 12 volt chargers, that can run from 2 amp to 200amp(start function). I really did not need to use it on this truck until now. The specific gravity and voltage has been good. (Until now)
I think it...
I decided to take out the load failed batteries. I will try to recover the better of the two if I can. Had a good talk with Charles about the Pulse tech system.(posted above)
We both think it's unlikely that it fried two batteries in 5 days. So that leaves me with the possibility that one...
The instructions I found for the PDU. Said to run the 12volt off the same battery as the PDU ground.(to get just 12volts)
I tested the PDU, and it would only pulse with the 24 volt lead and ground hooked up. So the 12 volt should not have a draw with nothing connected. (Or fuse in)
Whats weird...
