To my disappointment my MOG/S.E.E. hasn't run for years. For some reason (old age
I guess) I thought it was running and quit during the GL video filming. But on closer inspection it is obvious it hasn't run for years. I've been trying to resurrectct the completely dead batteries. Charged for over a week, put Epsom salt and charged for an other week. Hydrometer is dead flat. Zero volts. Next I am going to do the welder thing. The fuel looks and smell like burnt gear oil! Afterer draining the tank it looks like the tank is coated with varnish and there are varnish dingle-balls on the bottom but no corrosion. Going to remove the tank and get that cleaned out.
I CAN'T WAIT!!!!
I GOT TO START AND DRIVE IT!!!!!
So tommorow I'm going to borrow some batteries from the my M944. Remove the fuel tank. put extension hoses on the pick up an return line then dip them into a 5 gal diesel can. clean the fuel filter(s), prime and pray.
wish me luck
