While the truck is screaming down the highway ? Damn Lol

That also crossed my mind but would have to wonder if that small dump valve (high rpm) would pull enough pressure for the IP not to function. I think it may possibly slow down the runaway a small degree but not stop it. Since more than likely you would be driving the truck when this IP...

I use the Big Buddy 9000btu propane heater for my car trailer. I love this little thing. Will run on low for 6 hrs and 3 1/2 on high. It uses one pound propane bottles or can be made to run off a 20lb tank. My buddy has one to heat up the cargo area of a Pinzgauer 712M and it works great...

Welcome to the green metal psychosis. Mark

So it pinches the hose to close it off. Yeah that would work but the cost is high. But it would work as a imobilazer and a emergency fuel cut off. Mark

How about a 1/2" 24v fuel cutoff solenoid after the fuel filter. Normally open and closed by am emergency switch. That will shut her down fast. Just a thought. Mark

That's a lot of coin for someone's wet dream.

Glad to hear it my friend. Good to see more green iron in the People's Republic. Mark

Quick question are these batteries the same model and also do the share the same lot number.

Not for anything but you should load test those batteries.. Unless one has a so so connection they should be at the same voltage. Any idea how old the batteries are? Fully charged with a small load they should settle and hang at 12.5-12.6. You can get a slight over top charge after a recent...

I would put a volt meter on the batteries and test it all out. I don't notice any real difference on mine when putting loads on the system. Our gauges are not accurate at all so confirm with a meter. Mark

Those oil pressure switches are a go to for these issues. Easy fix. Mark

The IRIS inverter is a great pure sign wave setup. Will run 1800w continuously and spike much higher. I have the whole Iris setup new in the box with the slave plug in a pelican case for my HMMWV. It's a very high quality setup used in the HMMWV radio trucks. Mark

He has a vent high up on the roof peak so with the genset is running and that exhaust system is running it moves a buttload of air into the room and the exhaust system pushes out. He has a CO detector and he also has a CO handheld detector with a digital readout and it's nothing. The drum is...

MEP831A generator. 30 gal fuel drum, Iris 24v 1800w inverter. 200ah battery backup and next is 400w solar system. He is also installing power and communication underground cables to run to the house for 220v transfer.

Perfect response to the posed question. Mark

The 700R4 is not garbage but hey thanks for the shot.

If I were to replace my 3 speed with a 4 speed I personally would go with a built 700R4 as it is a mechanical transmission and not have to worry about electronics at all. When built the old 700R4 can easily handle the HMMWVs power. I do have experience with the 700R4s at the drag strips and...

Thank you. Only issue with mahogany is it darkens over time and after like 5 or 6 years outside they need a freshening. I'm just going to pull them, sand them and relinseed them. But no deterioration at all. Mark

I used 6x1 mahogany and some boiled linseed oil. Looks really nice and holds up very very well. I personally prefer the wood look. Mark
