your probably right

Well if thats no good, help me out here, theres got to be a way to get excess motor heat turned into water heating heat beyond the 160-180 the thermostat will give. I'm not talking about wraping the whole pipe, just one or two loops , or go to the other side and a fiew loops on the oil filter...

Ok , heres the thing, trying to jump into your thoughts as the Deuce goes....If you could find some 22.5 wheels in a six hole pattern to fit the Deuce, you will have to use tires like the ones found on 18 wheelers in either a street/road pattern or a snow/traction type. The wheels are usually...

Any tire with a .5 designaton is a tubeless ie 14.5, 16.5, 19.5, 22.5, 24.5 All the point five rims are tubeless whereas there are split-rims/splitring rims which are whole numbers ie. 15, 16, 17, 18, 20" tube type used for heavy applications. Barring all the tubless auto and lt truck tire/rims...

Heres a thought how to get some heat to the box (guts) of the heater. As your coming off of the motor with the water line, come back and do some wraps/coils around the exhaust with the apropriate size of copper tubeing as close as practical to the turbo housing or first part of the j pipe and...

Heres the deal

Wow that looks impressive, as though you'd see GI's milling around.

How are you guys caring for and keeping the headlight glass/plexiglass lenses looking transparent

Well, then whats the better water type everyone's liking?, hows Boyce Equiptment's one stack up? its @ $200

Yea, huh.....2004

Pretty nice. The interior is especially well done....impressive all around

Some years ago I had a Southwind gas heater, which were widly used in VW's. I needed a igniter for it and searched, this was back in about 1994-95 or so and the Company that messed with them was in Castle Rock Colorado. They also used a specialty fuel pump. It might be that they are still in...

This is getting long-winded, but the point of all this is durability of your motor for years to come by extending lubrication charicteristics of your oil system. The seperate pieces, the bearings and the turbo are to be considered. The sound I'm hearing on start-up without pulling the stop cable...

Some years ago, I had an Old Fart friend that had 5+plus acres of all kinds of Diesel motors, trucks, TREASURES and such. In the fall, before the first snowfall, if His timing went off as scheduled, He sprayed used motor oil with a hand-pumped outfit to spray the stuff setting about to help...

As Cranetruck says, This is a variable also. Which leads me to wonder about such items as Duralube which claims to adhear to the crank journals and bearing caps, (And everything it touches) for a greater amount of time, before the coating of lubrication is exhausted and not on the surfaces but...

Being an observer and talking to different Truckers, in conversation, they stated that Cat was more costly for parts. Barring any other topic, that inclined me to think that by virtue of that fact alone they would ultimatly be a good choice in strength, yet a bad choice in economic terms as the...

Air pressure is ultimatly unimportant in that it is only needed to run aparatus's that operate in the air system, and are entirely seperate from the oil system, which is VASTLY more important than air supply My suggestion is let the air build slowly, its not anywhere as important as lubrication...

I'm a little stumped here, so I re-read as Westex said, and heres my thoughts. Supose a multifuel takes a certain amount of revolutions after start-up before the oil arives at the galleys and initally starts lubing the bearings. Lets sa this amount of 'crankshaft' revolutions amount to say 600...

I start up and listen for the oil to arrive at he bearings, about 10-12 seconds, at which time it sounds different 'quieter' and after that increase the idle till it is smooth, somewhere about just under 1,000 (if my tach's right), mabe 800 rpm, and idle there for several minuates before...

Man what a _ _ _ _ ..... but we all see what you see in it. No doubt it'll live again, just going to take a fiew parts thats all. Theres probably some Confuscious saying relating to this, but for the life of me....... Good luck Boss.
