Since this is trending toward a repair and diagnosis site, I thought I would add a little fuel to the fire. Iron Planet has 8-10 more SEEs on auction this week. �� It even looks like several are in pretty good operating shape. Others parts only.

There are still over 800 left at RRAD. Just bring your own chainsaw.

Here is how to get rid of rats and find them after they are dead:

1) leave a bowl of flower out for the rats for a week. refill as necessary.
2) After a week, mix 50/50 plaster of Paris (dry) and flour.

The rats will get very thirsty and seek out water which will activate the plaster. They will typically die near a source of water.

Can you then recycle the copper from the wiring they ate off of the SEEs?

I had my return and pickups reversed in my tank. Would run great till the tank went to 3/4 full, then would die. Might be something to look at.
Dang it, you had to be right, didn't you? Compared to two other FLUs, and the lines are reversed.
Yeah, I know, a two minute fix...except on this SEE. For whatever reason, the tank is so close to the bed structure above that the 90-degree hard lines coming out of the sending unit don't quite clear the bed.
I can get to the forward one, sort of, but there's not enough room for even a skinny arm to get to the rear connection. Tank dropping time.

Tank drop

It is pretty quick to drop fix and replace. Took me an hour or so. Glad to hear we finally came to the bottom of it.

Yes, I owe you one for cluing me in, but I'm not convinced about the 1-hour part. It would likely be had I not parked in a mud puddle.
Hopefully it can be primed, bled, primed, and maybe even ethered, to dry ground. Or, I could add fuel to the tank I'm about to drop, drive, then siphon.
Yeah, that's kinder to the starter and bleeder screw threads.

I was in my workshop with air tools and such....in the mud might add 10-15 mins... ;)

FYI, I sold out of the electrical charts some time back. There have been a couple guys on the forum ask for a copy since. My failing memory recalls one of you scanning a PDF version to be made available. You may want to post up the availability of the PDF to help these guys out
