    Greenville IL to Michigan

    Trailer I live in Vandalia Il about 25 miles from greenville. I can store it here for as long as you need but I don't have anyway of picking it up. Or maybe I do, is this thing road ready?

    Manifold

    I really need to replace the manifold gaskets on my gasser but I am afraid to touch the bolts holding it on. There is not much left of the studs past the nut.

    Mep 026 3kw

    manuals Not knocking the electronic route, just like the paper better. I just find it easier to sit the book on the fender, just kidding. I do like to have both versions though, I keep the paper versions in the shop and the other in the house and they both have there place. I can print another...

    Mep 026 3kw

    Manuals I downloaded manuals off the logsa site but I could not find anything describing my problem. My printer is out of ink and nobody here local has my ink so I have to order it, but when it comes I am going to print the whole thing out. I just like the old fashion way of doing things. When...

    Mep 026 3kw

    Pump Thanks guys for the info. I am learning about these things as I go. That little genset starts first pull everytime until the crankcase fills up then it won't. You take the plugs out and they are just soaked and the pistons are full of gas and oil and I mean FULL. You can pour the gas out...

    Mep 026 3kw

    I have a little 3kw genset here that runs great with the exception of one small problem, it will dump a half quart of gas in the crankcase in 30 minutes of run time. Any ideas? The float and everything else on the carb seems to be working properly. When it is running it does not appear or smell...

    On the road to Iowa

    Tire Nope. It is still on there he just doesn't put as much air in that tire as he does the rest. I will tell you guys one thing all the pictures on here don't do him any justice. That setup is looooooooong. He looked like a land train going across my hay field like the ones you see on tv down...

    On the road to Iowa

    DR UPDATE A couple of more pictures. I don't know why they downloaded so small, I down loaded all four at the same time. Sorry about the size, but if you can see them the black plum in the center is smoke rolling out of the truck about a 1/4 of a mile down the road.
