    Portable generatorv

    Of the 2 times I've worked on generators that wouldn't start... both times it was clogged carb jets. Blew them out and the generators started right up.

    Air hose

    I bought my first Goodyear hose on Monday to tie together 2 tanks. Now I want to throw away my other hoses and buy new Goodyear. Feels super sturdy yet flexible and easy to coil up...

    HANGOVER Run..

    Bought the Hutchinson Rock Monsters... Hopefully my 4.88s diffs can handle road duty and I'll just put in 3.116 gears in my TC (replaces 2.488). My list of things to worry about: 1) Tire rub 2) Spare Birfs (already have Longfields) 3) Gearing 4) Hydro Steering

    HANGOVER Run..

    Too late now... Maybe I should go with Hutchinson double beadlocks. I do like the DOT nature of them, I just wasn't thrilled about the backspacing. I'll keep having to run spacers for sure.

    HANGOVER Run..

    I had fun even though we didn't make it too the top. Thanks to everybody who helped tug my ass out... all those times. Even though nothing broke, this was a very expensive trip for me. Some 39.5/13.5R17 bias Iroks are headed to 4WheelParts with my name on them. Now on to the...

    Jump Starting w/ Duramax

    I figured it out, the ground tab has sporadic ground contact. Next time I just need to clamp the negative to the engine block. http://image.8-lug.com/f/17821033/0811_8l_30+gmc_2500_full_on_buildup+power_cord.jpg

    Jump Starting w/ Duramax

    I decided to be a Good Samaritan today. I was at the Milton Safeway and saw a Honda Fit trying to jump start a 6.7 Powerstroke. It wasn't working and I happened to be driving my truck, so I decided to help. I connected the cable to the "jumper junction". On Duramax, there is a junction...

    Batteries

    No they're not. As for radiant heater - they are fine for small RVs, but big RVs with ducted heating need the fans to push heat into the other rooms. I like the Diehard Platinum batteries. Made by Odyssey. Once or twice a year Sears runs a sale on Diehards...
