  1. So in my new world.. when we talk about cavitation, we say a gas has gotten into the system. Air is a gas.. this comprimises the movement of fluid through the pumps volute. The action of the water,in this case, mixed with air creates small explosions inside the volute, which pecks away at the volute. When enough of a gap between the impeller and the volute is created, the water will not move properly. Hence, and over heating condition. We all know air seeks the highest point in the cooling system.. venting at that point is key. Lets take a Mack E-7 for example... even though there are small tubes at the top of the thermo housing and pump, I have had 100% sucess when I loosen the plug in the front water manilfold behind the thermo housing, as i fill the system back up. When it leaks the air is gone...
  2. And of course Democrats here are mad at President Trump. Lets not forget that Netanyahu is also in this fight, and isnt the show of gratitude from Iranians that live here in the U.S. a reason to support this toppling of the Iranian Regime?
  3. Iranian leaders like the ones who were killed, with nukes means death to Christians and Jews...... Period!!!!!

  7. Is it the nut with the cross cut in it?
  8. Our stationary kohler generators around my city have John Deere engines, as well as 2 of our portable water pumps. One is a 1 MGD, and the other is a 3 MGD pump. Made by Godwin. I did build 3, 3179DF engines to be used as powerplants for water trucks. But thats all i know.
  9. Bob.. I remeber Robert Conrad doing the Eveready battery commercials.. Go ahead knock it off... 🍻 Same era.... ?

  15. Well... Today is Harley Day in the shop. The Tri Glide got a P.M. service, and the sporster got the same and a Carb re-build. The carb was nasty inside. The Sporty sits a lot because I had the Softail Custom to ride. Now that the Soft tail has turned into a Sweet C-10, Sporty is back in action. As far as 'Tino' goes... He kept me safe from the boogie man. He likes to stand guard.
  16. Happy Birthday,, Mean Green,, !! 🎂🥳
  17. I beleive you are talking about the E.U.P. "Electronic Unit Pump". They are sealed with 2 orings. Are you going to do the repair?

  20. Sorry Mark... at least im not asking you guys about my nail polish and which face cream is best for my oily skin, like todays men...
  21. I actually like Tofu.. It comes in my favorite soup when I order from my favorite Chinese joint... I used to fry it in my homemade stir fry's.. It is made from soybeans ...
  22. I will open a book in a second.. No pride lost.. Even on the engines and such that I built a bunch of, if I have a brain fart, or just pause and question myself, out comes the book..
  23. dumb me. I just realized I posted this on Hicrop's thread.. He too is doing great Mechanic work as well. Obviously highly skilled..
  24. I work with parts changers at the city. I will save take off parts that have near new parts so that I can put a piece of equipment back on line fast. The other 2 guys, will order all new and wait without concern and then replace the whole unit, and in some cases the issue is still there. They tell me im wasting my time and I should just spend the money.. I tell them I am a re-builder and a mechanic. they roll their eyes and make smart comments.. they are also 31and 26 years old. The fact that Larry is so meticulous with his build makes me stay tuned to the thread. I appreciate a Mechanic !!
