I do not believe it has an attached air compressor, but it has a 15 amp 110 outlet which would power a small compressor if needed.

It was not at Fort Drum.

Keith are you referring to the main switch of the unit?

I will double check the ground this weekend when I have time and let you know what I find. While I am at it I will also check voltage to solenoid while its cranking.

I will take some more pictures of it when I get home. you are seeing the front with the electrode side lead. I should mention it has a Chrysler flathead (appears to be 3 cylinder, though some people who have looked at it believe it to be a 6 cylinder) engine. Its currently running a touch...

maybe a pic if I can get it loaded to site.

I recently acquired a 1958 self propelled welding cart. The cart itself has. Hobart badge on it. The cart has a 3 speed transmission. The welder works very nicely and has very low hours on it. This unit was acquired from an arsenal, so it is NOT a military piece of gear, yet it is direct...

I will double check with my multimeter during cranking. When I observed during cranking and failure to start the solenoid did not retract. I considered lubing the solenoid plunger but decided against after I determined its an intermittent issue. It appeared as though the solenoid wasnt...

Sometimes (not all the time) when I start my MEP002A the low oil pressure over-ride doesn't work. I have to walk over and physically push up the solenoid just a bit. Then when I go back it fires up. Yes it does stay running once oil pressure is built. What would cause the low pressure...

Statesville 77 sucks pretty hard, but still not as bad as PA and NY roads.

11Echo, how do those do in slick grass?

So this would only be a 20,000 mile a year truck at most. 2 to 3 round trip runs on east coast for long hauls. Other than that, it would be just local putzing around. Do the M931s select in and out of 6*6 mode?

I have looked at FLD120s and found tons of them available with sleepers and such on them. The military trucks have way less use on them. However I do see the merit with air ride suspension as well. D7s weighs less than a 53' step deck full of bees. Generally I have to stop loading before I...
