    Empty M1101 coming from Robins Georigia to Asheville NC

    My son had fun reading me the directions once past security at Warner Robins. After being there once, I think the directions could be simplified to: "find the water tower, go one block east and head south".

    Absolutely love my m1038!

    Thanks for letting me poke around today and ask questions. I appreciate you giving me a ride during your lunch break too! I will be working towards one of my own. You've got a nice machine there. Keep us updated on fixes, improvements, etc.

    Pickup Needed at Groveport (Spiegel Rd Location) on or before 4/25

    Per GL customer service the Spiegel Rd. site no longer takes phone calls. I'm thinking of going this Friday and pleading that I thought the 10 day removal rule applied in spite of their online scheduling tool. It is a risk, but it might work. I could show up extremely early Friday am. Will they...

    Hello From Mississippi

    Don't forget Memphis Equipment is right in your back yard. That may be a good place to hang out and gain some information. Shoot, they may even be hiring mechanics at some point! I just met another member this week from Hernando who just acquired a HMMWV. You may see him running around town...

    Pickup Needed at Groveport (Spiegel Rd Location) on or before 4/25

    Turns out the online scheduling tool doesn't have any appointments for two weeks. I've been assured by GL that my property will be held as long as I have an appointment in the system. I went ahead and scheduled for Monday May 2nd early am. but really don't have time that day. I had actually...

    Absolutely love my m1038!

    + 1 for pics! I'm working in Memphis for a few days. I could be convinced to drive down to Hernando tomorrow evening and take some for you... If you give me a ride. 8)

    Pickup Needed at Groveport (Spiegel Rd Location) on or before 4/25

    Ok, as it turns out I will be going to Groveport for pickup of my own items this Friday April 22 (if I can get them to answer the phone). Let me know if anyone needs small items picked up. I will be in a small station wagon with the rear seats folded flat. My box will probably take up 60-70% of...

    New to Me M998 and Fun in the Snow

    Great photos 70deuce! I love Colorado snow. We were out in Glenwood Springs skiing over Christmas this year. Excellent use of new (to you) M998 to rescue stranded motorists. Thanks for sharing! BTW, its 80 deg. and sunny here in Nashville today. :D

    Diesel additives

    I've been using Optilube XPD in my VW diesels (DPF equipped) for 5 plus years. It is a lubricity additive with some cetane improvement and decent anti-gel properties. I've put 150K miles on one and 50K on another with no problems. It's also about $51/gallon. I dose 4 oz for 14 gallon fillup...

    Pickup Needed at Groveport (Spiegel Rd Location) on or before 4/25

    The box is roughly 40" x 25" x 25" Weight is approx 150-200 lbs. I have a large box of small items that needs picked up on or before 4/25. Member tbar123 isn't heading that way until 4/26. Anyone else going next week? I can plan on picking up soon thereafter. If I end up going, it will be...

    Wet stacking, RPM, I wonder aloud too much

    Don't these MEP engines only run at 1,800 RPM? At idle the system provides more fuel than is really needed to keep the engine running. This accounts for sudden loads and helps the governor keep the engine at a constant RPM when loads switch on and off. I think under a loaded condition, the fuel...

    MEP-802a best practices

    Hammick, I read somewhere that a 24V slave plug can be adapted to a NOCO Genius 24V battery charger/maintainer and left plugged in to the exterior slave port. That might be a clean way to keep batteries topped off if you have enough solar available to run the NOCO. I bought the 6V/12V first and...

    Newbie looking to buy MEP802a or MEP831a

    Good choice Hammick. I just acquired an 802A myself. They are really great units. This site is a priceless resource. I've been able to correct several minor problems by reading posts and TM's here on this site. With a $0.50 fuse, my unit is now charging the new batteries I installed!
