If you leave the key in the on accy postion does the coil get warm/hot , If you have a condenser , don't know if you do , pull it out of the line of voltage as well .

We referedto the as APUs as well Auxillery power Units , and tiny turbines , The turbing is easily removed, Theses were manufactured when every thing aircraft related was built and maintained the same as your assigned aircraft , In the early days when ever we defueled a jet,could have been...

I retired in 1994, was a small gas turbine shop Chief in the mid eighties doing repair on these, Seems to me the T.O. number was 2G-GTCP-85-70a , it breaks down as Aircraft , Ground support, Gas Turbine Compressor Powerplant, 85- 70 a model. Air Research made or remanufactured most of these.

May you have been NAVY , In the Air Force we used HUNDREDS OF THEM , most had the 71a gas turbine . We called them Plooshes for short, because when you stretched the hose out and loaded air down the line to flush it PRIOR to attaching it to an aircraft it would make a Plooshe sound. The engines...

ALL I CAN SAY RUSTY is NIICCCCEEE !

I ve done a few recoveries, from as far away as Delaware to NH , They ae always a hoot, but ive learned two things. 1, did a tow bar haul from NJ to NH was a pain in the neck the whole way , kept it to 45 mph MAX ! If your going after a truck, either get it running and drive it OR 2, Trucking...

never worked one, grab the Wiring diagram and a multi meter , its a power applied problem , you are loseing applied voltage in the run circuit, BUT I am not telling you anything you don't know , Hate wiring problems, always say ill just quickly wire around it, never due have to find the fault...

Well contacted the manufacture explained pattern is 10 by 11.75. Still talking , problem on thier end is in under standing brakes. Can’t seem to get across five ton had wedge air brakes. They have it in thier mind that they have deuce style brake shoes. Still trying !

Any body tried running Centramatic Balance rings on the 5 ton. Looking at them as a possible cure for my wobbly moment at 43 t0 47 mph. Any one have a part number for them or the wheel lug pattern specs ? Price seems reasonable roughly $200 for a steer wheel set .

Tin Star is absolutely correct on the turbo. I rebuilt / overhauled hundreds , You couldn't even blend that and get any where near a balance on it , They are just like a grenade , shrapnel and all Don't change just the inducer,the exducer will need to go as well, Would wonder how mush was ingested ?

if you have the lever as well as the PTO ,now is the time to cut the hole in the dog house fibre glass. Locating the hole for that is the trick , I figured the location with the lever in mid range, popped a starter hole big enough to get the lever to protrude thru with the doghouse installed...

PTO is a MONSTER, (will take at least ten minutes) good job on the hole, don't forget the seal!

I just don't have the time TOOOOOO many projects and tooooooo many hobbies Thanks Mark, means a lot coming from you.

Guy Fang brings up a good source of multi purpose tool, In the Air Force we frequently checked The MAG PLUGS on the sumps on Aircraft engines and AGE equipment with a mil spec angle head flase light TWO CELL, easy t do, take two spare multi meter leads , POS NEG and attach them to the neg and...

Thank you Sir !

If you fail , Ill try him with my 5 ton, but , I don't do bigger trucks, hate to break things , good luck ! LOL

M 38 in Maine provoked thought for me and I finally retook the expired exams for my Ham radio Tech class, did well , lots of study material available and no more MORSE , also took the general on a whim. Looking back it was long overdue (30 plus years) Cant recommend it enough, Great group of...

Yup. It had the auto stop function. Every time I stopped or hesitated at an intersection or round about the car shut off. What I didn't know was that if you held steady pressure on the brake. When you let up Engine automatically restarted. so I was was the proverbial Yank cranking it with the...

So, buf, that post was useless with out photos. Please post some. Have been thinking about bumpers. But. Need fresh ideas. Thanks

Not to throw gasoline on the barbi. But my truck crosses many boundaries. Run classic CARC on the body. Three color although heavy on the green for some reason. Scant brown. And a TAN yes tan top. Must have been the only one they had when they turned it in. I was **** bent to change it at...
