    Not enough message storage.

    I periodically copy all mine off (several formats available) and save them locally, then delete all but the most recent or important ones. YMMV

    MBU Burner fuel connection diy coupler? What fuel do you use in yours??

    Which do come up every now and then on e-Bay, but it's usually faster to get them locally.

    The burners can get real finicky if the voltage drops too much when they try to light off, as I found out the hard way at the Monroe, NC airshow late last year. If your inverter is only putting out 26 volts, don't expect to get more than one burner working at a time.

    1886. Many buildings were damaged, but it was too expensive to tear them down and rebuild, so many buildings were bolted together with very large iron rods passing through from one side of the building to the other. There are buildings still standing with the bolts, nuts and washers visible...

    Need guidance with NSN number search

    You can also find things via a Google search, but you need to look a little deeper at what the search results show. Just last night I was looking for five ton wheel seals using the search term "seal 7979349", perusing through the first two pages of results found me not only the outer wheel seal...

    What is this

    Looks like a lift bracket. Mechanical Mule has a similar arrangement built in, not bolted on.

    People I knew at MUSC have passed to the other side, Dick Sosnowski and Julian Buxton, About the only ones I know down there now are COL Henry Durant, and a couple of neurosurgeons, Art Pacult and Curt Worthington. People I know from work live over in Mt. Pleasant.

    Another source for the new multifuel head gaskets

    Check with SECO in Augusta, GA. I got four of them via local pickup (I live less than 80 miles away) from them last fall. Less than $240 with sales tax. Shipping would be extra.

    Deuce driving tips

    Military uses wire numbers to distinguish which one is power and which one is ground, so all the wires are black originally.

    Deuce driving tips

    Anti-Fog, but if your windows have dripping water, it does not work as well. Course, it's a lot better than putting Rain-X on the inside - it will fog the windows and the only quick way of clearing them is to hose them down, continuously.

    The termites we have are not 'native', but came in on lumber being imported about 100 years ago. Much more aggressive, but they can be contained by regular inspections by an exterminator. Annual termite inspections are generally required by the mortgage companies. Another plus is the Medical...

    Soft Top j-Channel. I cant find it!! Is it available??

    It was a full piece of siding, I used the part that had the "J" hook cut about 1.5 inches above the hook part. Only thing done so far is to paint the rivet and washers green to match the cover. One piece of siding was almost enough to make two front pieces (and did - the leftover part was used...

    You don't want to live in Charleston itself. Not only is it expensive for decent neighborhoods, but the whole place is built on muck (silt), which means the streets are 'lumpy', or will be. It's also not very high off mean high tide (floating furniture on the second floor of houses during...

    Let him keep killing "C" turbos! Maybe that's why Uncle went to the "D" model.

    Ok had a strange conversation about a 6.2 diesel putting gas 350 gas heads

    GM poisoned the waters for diesel engines in cars with that Olds scenario. My doctor at the time had one and I told him to trade it in right away, which he did. Engine took a dump on the dealership when a potential customer took it for a test ride. But it was not his problem anymore!

    Paint

    Look for the ones that have BEHR in them. It is custom mixed to the exact shades you need.
