    An interesting comment I heard from deep inside Ukriane

    I have been digging deep into the conflict using Youtube and Foreign news sources, including "France 24" and raw Ukraine rebel footage. I heard that the reason that the first Russian Column failed was that their trucks were shod with fake Michelin XMLs. These tires that had the same tread...

    Do we have a part # or equivalent to the 12/24 battery rectifier?

    A0. Auxiliary LED lights, which are diodes essentially. Could be part of the issue too.

    Do we have a part # or equivalent to the 12/24 battery rectifier?

    Yes, the polarity box. I am getting current leakage, evident with lights staying on after turned off, but dim. Good idea about the grounding.

    WMO pump to drive centrifuge

    The typical centrifuge turns around 3000's G's. Honestly, you would be better off using a smaller, air driven centrifuge on a 55 gallon drum. They are not too expensive.

    Helping the Cause

    You rock! I have a feeling that if we need support for any venue, there are A LOT of truckers who would sign!! Especially our brothers in Canada!

    Gasoline and WMO mix ?

    Sounds to me like it has a higher flashpoint. Pretty much all you do is change the gas to WMO ration to get it to flash. Look up flashpoint testing. Keep in mind, if the oil has some weird additive that has to be removed, then you have to "crack" the oil and run it threw a distillation tower...

    Have a good source for rubber air brake lines for FMTV's?

    I would appear that there are at least 3 types of DOT approved air brake lines. Am I correct? 1. Rubber 100R5 reinforced wire hoses which can be crimped or used with field reusable fittings 2. Rubber textile reinforced that use brass compression fittings, such as textile reinforced Dayco...
