You should be able to run the hot water heater on LP - at least I can..my water heater is 4500w and my genny makes 7500 on LP or 8kw on gas. And as far as gasoline goes, I wouldn't worry about 90 day old stuff as long as it's in a good quality sealed container. In fact my neighbor and I got his...

Hey folks, my buddy had a lightening strike or some other form of surge in his area the other day which ruined a tiny little surge protector and tripped a breaker. Another person near him had damage to her stove.. This got me thinking maybe I should take a few steps to protect myself before...

I've heard interview from those who allegedly escaped who have said that basically anything that could be used for fertilizer must be collected and sent off for use by the government (and there are quotas that must be met). It wouldn't surprise me at all that the remnants of whomever gets...

Is the pickup in the fuel tank obstructed? I had a customer mower where they replaced the pump and filter, but didn't check the actual supply line - the problem ended up being grass had worked it's way in the supply line and got caught in an elbow.

My main concern about RT6 5w40 is my neighbor being able to pull the engine over in 0 degree weather. Otherwise I'd certainly prefer it with its higher HT/HS over Mobil 1 0w40

One word. Apathy.

If the price is right...

You may notice an increase of oil consumption when using 5w30 vs 10w30, otherwise they'll work interchangeably.

Awesome, thanks for the replies.

Does it restart immediately or shortly afterwards? Possibly a fuel supply issue? Collapsed fuel line, plugged fuel filter, etc?

I'm helping my neighbor up the road get his generator program up to speed after he was caught unprepared this winter. It's a Centurion 5kw that is brand new except for a few hours from this winter.. I'm going to check the valve clearance, replace the spark plug with a 5/8" hex NGK for ease of...

Sounds like a good plan. Since you have an oil cooler, that helps quite a bit. Also remember that being air cooled, your engine temps are directly tied to ambient.. so no need for heavy oil in sub zero temps. Heck, they may not ever rise above 120-150 degrees if it's cold enough. There was...

I'm guessing that he was saying that in reference to this remark from JimPghPA when he said "Better to maneuver to avoid incoming and lose something, compared to not maneuvering and taking a hit." My question would be - how much or what kind of support do the other ships in a carrier group...

Gotcha, thanks for your thoughts

Yes, you know, its a specialty lubricant for starters. It goes in a small reservoir below the drive gear 🤣 He probably means starting fluid otherwise known as ether.

If they have multiple eyes on it, can't they use that for guidance? If you have a running, traceable track, would that be sufficient for weapon guidance? As for nighttime, aren't things still visible? Be it with "night vision" or using different wavelengths? Obviously barriers (clouds) would...

Seems like an interesting concept and could be pretty effective for "small groups" if applied on a local level to things like drones and the like, or nations if implemented on larger scale. What would be some limitations or conversely what would be the next counter to something like that? -...

Wouldn't that vary depending on journal size and bearing clearance?

If you're worried about heat,go up a grade in viscosity. As far as longevity is concerned,in my opinion, the air filter is more important in OPE than the oil filter

Few, if anyone will have the answers to your questions unfortunately. If you select a common auto based filter like a Wix 51348 or Frame 3614, then you'll have a cheaper, higher quality filter than most all OPE filters and it'll be more than capable to handle your needs, especially compared to...
