    Checked into this some more today, Its a normally closed switch [grounded]. Untill oil pressure comes up and opens the ground. With it unplugged truck will not crank, but in an emergency you can just ground the wire and truck will crank and run normal, you just wont have starter lockout...

    How to deal with this rust on fender

    All my MIGs are 240 volt, and all have charts, but the oldest one is only about 10 years old...Maybe yours is older. I have Miller and Lincoln. Sheet metal should be one of the lowest settings, not the hottest. What model/brand welder do you have? Sheet metal is very thin as you know, i wouldnt...

    Crankcase Breather Tube Smoke/Oil

    I dont know much about GL. Only bought one vehicle from them. I bet you bought it "as is" though. I really doubt there is any warranty with this stuff. Have never seen an auction anywhere with a warranty. Good luck though and hope you get it fixed.

    How to deal with this rust on fender

    Forgot the picture. Tig is nice and I have one I love, but I use it mostly on aluminum, wire feed can handle most stuff on these trucks and is easier to learn to use. I also dont like flux core wire on sheet metal. Lots of guys use it with good success, I just dont like cleaning off the slag...

    How to deal with this rust on fender

    All my wire welders [i have 3 at home and 6 at work] have charts inside the door. Just set it at what the chart says for the thickness of material, wire speed, heat setting etc. Will be very close and often need no changing. Also i don't usualy weld all the way around when putting a patch in...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I have a plasma cutter, but the Plasma Cams are awesome. My son used one in Vo-Tech to make all kinds of stuff and was really neat. He even cut out gears/sprockets, really cool.

    Car show, Ocean city Md

    The spring car show is coming up in Ocean City Md. Was wondering if any of you guys from the Eastern shore would be interested in going. Last year we didnt have the M35 done to cruise with it. I heard there were a couple Mvs cruising around last year. This year we have the M35 and M105 ready...

    Deuce clutch disc

    Most clutch discs do not have much material on them above the rivets. But I would say your mileage would depend on a lot of factors, mostly your left foot!! It is amazing how long the discs last with that small amount of material on them.
