beyond "change all fluids" Thinking of all I have done... Coolant filter Block heater Service air drier' Multi-bank battery charger Adjust transmission modulator Check axle vents [/FONT][/COLOR][/LEFT]

Yeah, was about to mention that... P=(I^2)(R) V=IR You're 20K in elements are still 20K in power consumption in parallel. They'd drop in series because the voltage drop across each in series would be reduced depending on how many are in series. Since you are using a pure resistance load, the...

Large load starting, likely a quick under voltage while the govenor catches up. Wouldn't worry. Most of my UPS's had no issue with the 803a. The SMC1500 was finicky until I set it's sensitivity to medium instead of high. Waveform was pretty good, but between being near the low voltage line...

I get the whole avoid wet stacking thing... But an outage comes in two forms, a short one where I'm not worried about wet stacking the generator. Or a large and long one, where I'm more worried about fuel conservation.

At 52A instead of 50A the breaker isn't going to trip for some time. It's only 104% of load. It's not a binary device, there's some play. The curve for a SquareD QO puts the trip point for 125% of load at between 150 and 800 seconds. And it's a logritmic scale where under 125% isn't guaranteed...

Or... There's an entire market who will buy in small quantity and doesn't buy when it's by the pallet because they don't want to deal with unloading what they don't need. Used to buy ammo cans from Ft. Lewis... Sell me 8 pallets and I'd pay 1/3 the cost per can as if only one pallet was for...

For the "off" season here I change from monthly tests to every 2 months. That's about it...

Marketing and reputation.... I'd pay GP more for a unit that ran than GL for a "Cannot reach fan to check motor."

Invest in a com system for you and Dad. Gonna be a decent trip to FL, and I'm sure you'd rather not be shouting the entire way. I've got a Sigtronics Transcom II in the cab (It's 12-36V) and a few S-20 headsets so I can talk to passengers and hot have to shout.

$7 + lock & screws. I think worth it if you're going to have it running unattended. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00120JY1S/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Until you find the rust hole or something under the floor mat and have to re-weld 1/2 the cab floor. Or I just have bad luck. Other things if you're going to play with power are to get a pyro to measure exhaust temp. While it's not performance, coolant filter.

It's not that bad. I drive and park a M923 all the time in Kirkland, Redmond, Bellevue. Now, I've had people get so angry that their wife dragged them away, but 98% of the response is positive. When I park it at work I was averaging 15 selfies a day while I was there. (Left a GoPro running with...

No idea who that is, but it probably took me two weeks of glancing, think its a 5 ton 939 series. Not sure what length.

There's a Ritchie Bros lot down in Chehalis. I assume the rolling stock moved there. The diminishing number of lots @ JBLM is GL spinning down to scrap only and GP not being spun up yet. I'd guess that DRMO is getting a backlog...

And then send you a bill for the power it used to do so.

Everything from JBLM just got 33 miles further away... Oh well, could be worse.

Well (for me) those two points are good to hear.

Different heights? Huh? 14.00x20 should all be the same height. (Well, wear differences and all...)

Also: Does your neighbor have a generator they run? May be a moot point if their 3600 gas screamer will be running all night. The relative noise will be louder also as none of the background sounds in their house will be going still. But a stretched extension cord could also blunt annoyance.
