Hi all! I picked this Hobart welder up recently, have done a few repairs to it such as a blown out capacitor in the voltage regulator and the previous owner wired the new ignition switch in wrong. Mike at Midwest welding tested the voltage regulator, it was good. Motor runs excellent as well...

By chance do either of you have a parts machine? I'm in need of the ignition switch!

Contacting Hobart directly worked! It wasn't for the exact spec welder I had but is close enough to get me going! There is an odd wire from the resistor for the coil going directly to the battery from the previous owner... No wonder it didn't want to shut off on its own! Time to tune the...

Darn close that's for sure! I'll scour the one with the Chrysler engine see if it has similar wiring

She's a 1982. I need to call Hobart directly and try them There's a few wires that have been removed from terminals and I'm not sure where they need to be

Ford 200 gasser! Cute little thing

I have searched and have viewed all of those links As the one suggested emailing Miller literature department, I already have, they can't help since it was a navy unit Info for the MA-300-G is sparse

I bought a Hobart welder off craigslist recently. Normally Miller's literature department can send me a manual on the unit, but since it was a navy contract, they're hands off I am trying to find a manual so I can get the front stickers remade and make sure the wiring is correct, I am...

Where about in Oregon are you located? Outstanding looking rig!!

I'd beware of using the glow plugs longer than 15 seconds. If you do decide to go back to using the controller, one of the screw in solid state controllers has worked flawlessly for me for quite a long time. Usually these trucks only need about 8 seconds of lit glow plugs in 40 degree weather...

These IDI's are fun and work great when they are working. You might want to put new O-rings and return lines on it, the kit is 45 bucks. I'd leave the injectors in and not do the copper washers just yet. Pop all the return lines and plastic caps off, pick both O-rings off the injector. lube...

The folks where I work are spraying rice fields, that plane gets real freakin low and close to various trees, power lines and the earth! Dangerous job, but very neat. Cool pictures!

I would have snagged the smart car when he wasn't looking :grd:

Please take a camera with you to the DMV, I wanna see the clerks face when you show them a picture of what you are trying to register!

My first step too is to remove nortons, tell them to stop watching all the porn, then to install Spybot: search and destroy, then microsoft security essentials and mozilla firefox. I rarely ever get calls back for more issues. Its usually to do the same thing to other PC's

Still the good days for us younger folk :grin: I'm not lucky enough to get mice, I get wasps... and not just a few...

If I am home I might head over, but no MV's in my motor pool yet

If you head up I-5 maybe take a nice little 10 mile side tour and I'll buy you lunch, I definitely want to see a 925. There is another MV owner up the road that likes to drive the duece to school haha like cougar said, there should be plenty people along there to help. The only help I'd be...

Centrifuges will separate oil from algae, but not nearly all of it, and it will be backwards in energy production relative to the amount of oil you would get out. Keep in mind, you gotta grow a lot of algae, and get every drop of oil for this to be worth the effort haha

I keep running tests with my processing rig. I did learn the power of the capacitors that are in my power supply... ouch... haha I really won't know what works best until I get to talk to the science folk at school and I need to get it under a micro scope so I can see the effects the processor...
