    PulseTech accsessories?

    Howdy all! I'm getting around to checking things out with my 998 and I got curious about the PulseTech unit in the battery box. I was a bit surprised to see that most of the unused leads/taps still have juice flowing in them, the few that don't... well I haven't checked the breakers yet so that...

    New to me 998!

    Ya know what, NDT? Had a thought while I was at work over night... heavy and wide may be a good thing! I'm a ham radio operator and for many of our events and competitions our club erects temporary masts and towers to get our antennas a bit higher... This might make a nice base for a tilt up...

    New to me 998!

    I never thought of that- but ya know.... that's the perfect size. You're probably right!!!!! Never crossed my mind. Cosmetically speaking- is it just easier to fill it with Duraglass and be done with it? Or is it better to try to pull it back out and have someone TIG it? Then again, to answer my...

    New to me 998!

    Oh that's definitely on my list of things to uh... clean up. I have a feeling I'll uncover quite a few things that need work while I get deeper into this...

    New to me 998!

    NDT Normally I would but since it comes with the 998... it's a freebee. In this day in age it's hard to pass up a freebee! I figure I can always turn around and try to sell or trade it. Thank you for the ID on it- now I can at least look up the specs before I head back down for it. I really...

    New to me 998!

    Since I am very new to all of this and I'm not even sure where to start in identifying things... Does anyone have any idea what these numbers/ID mean?

    New to me 998!

    A few questions.... The "Pulse Charge Monitor" box- are these standard? Or did someone add this after it was de-milled? The crease/gash in the tub, below the rear passenger door is can be seen, somewhat in the side view. What is the best way to fix said problem? Should it be Tig welded or just...

    New to me 998!

    Well it finally happened- I made the jump and picked up an M998. I had my heart set on one in Texas but shipping or driving from Texas to Ohio was just not in the cards when it came down to the extra money needed. (I'll be honest- I could have waited another couple months and it wouldn't have...

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    Since I'm stuck on trying to find the perfect color... my eye is definitely drawn to this shade of green. It's been a while since this gent has posted and I don't know if he is even active on the forums any more. This color was matched from a bridge weight plate instead of using a standard code...

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    So 383 is the green designation and 34094 is also the code? That's where I'm confused. I noted the ways in which to decipher the 3xxxx code, but the 383 is not necessarily used in conjunction with that number. They are both the same product? I may just be overthinking all of this and overlooked...

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    Hey all! Spent the afternoon and most of this evening reading through this thread and drooling over all the great Behr projects! Had a question that doesn't have any bearing on my upcoming projects, it's more of a general curiosity... what is the "383" designation that I usually see paired with...

    MEP-002 Output Voltage Problems

    Howdy all! Sorry about the late response to this. Between work, schedules and the lovely weather up here in NE Ohio it's been a while since I felt froggy enough to hang out in the shed in an attempt to diagnose the problem. After a brief talk with my dad he mentioned that he does not believe it...

    MEP-002 Output Voltage Problems

    Howdy all! I'm actually posting this on behalf of my dad- who is the proud ( or not so proud! lol) owner of an MEP-002 that seems to have developed some problems. Not knowing how to operate this unit I'll do my best to describe the problem. And for the record I tried to search for this topic...

    Cant find the right shade!

    98G That does look similar to what I had in mind! While I was typing up a reply to my first post you snuck in and offered up that picture. That is indeed pretty darned close. What shade might that be?

    Cant find the right shade!

    While still searching the interwebs, primarily Google images, I did come across a guy who was experimenting with mixing some paints for some projects of his own. He mentioned the US using using a mix of black and Ochre to achieve the correct tint. And that would follow along with what I was...
