    euc cetificate approval

    It can take anywhere from 4 days to 45 days....it depends on how fast GL sends it to Battle Creek (BC) and whether BC is going to do any work that particular month or not...LOL Also, don't mail it in. Unlike stated in the instructions, you will need a COLOR scan of your drivers license (a...

    My first deuce, which turbo?

    Other than the obvious whistle (C turbo) when it's running, you look at the turbo exhaust side and compare the two. The "C" turbo starts off at the bottom kind of wide and tapers rather sharply toward the top (it's kind of hard to see in this picture). The "D" turbo is wide the whole way from...

    My first deuce, which turbo?

    Chris, I think his EUC just cleared and he's waiting on his shipper. Oh, by the by, it's a "D" turbo....You can just make out how fat the upper end of the exhaust side of the turbo is in the picture.

    4a032 Governor help

    I've got my hands on a few other air cylinders that will work for my purpose, but things got pretty busy around here in the later part of the summer, and I have not and the chance to get back to it. Also, I just picked up a few extra 4a032 engines from GL, but I'm not advertising them for sale...

    Genny recovery

    When you are getting it started, after if starts to and you are holding the start switch for it to smooth out....DO NOT hold it for longer than 15 seconds. If you hold the switch for longer than 15 seconds you are taking a great chance of burning out your voltage regulator. Really, the only...

    How much fuel in an "Empty" tank?

    Could there be a clue here?? Is it possible that the fuel just ran to the back of the tank while you were going UP the driveway and away from the fuel pump pick-up?????????? I've had it happen in my pick-up before...parked at my uncles house on a side slope with 1/4 tank left in the...

    Dump Bed Conversion Questions

    ALWAYS disconnect the batteries in any vehicle you weld on!!!!!!!! all but the very oddest animals are negative grounded systems. When you ground your welder you are running a chance of back feeding the battery with potentially a much larger voltage than they are designed for and could cause...

    ?? genset mfg.

    To the best of my knowledge, there were a few different manufacturers, but Libby Welding is by far the most common. Manufacturer doesn't make much difference, all of the engines are Onan engines and the rest was build to the contract specs using the same parts so they should all be...

    Dump and Ramps pics

    That's impressive to say the least. I'm looking to convert mine to a tipper as well. Do you have any pictures of the fabrication and installation of your hinges on the bed??? I like the way they turned out, I'm thinking maybe I can use a variation of that so I can keep the bumper-ettes and...

    Bleeding the Master Cyc

    it's real easy and inexpensive to build a pressure bleeder from a garden sprayer. The one using an air regulator like Keith_J described works well, but like he said you need to stop and fill the MC after each wheel. With the garden sprayer that is not necessary. Fill the sprayer with about...

    MEP-002/ 003 genset filters available

    I dug up the manufacturer information on that strainer a little while ago...it's posted here Mil Spec. Fuel Strainer for MEP-003a. However you may find the price is more than the strainer is worth. If I were you I would just get some filter bases and put two commercially available spin on...
