I would get some brass shim stock that will add up to 1.6 or 1.7 mm and fit it between the seal and hub as you install the seal. With a good interference fit it should be equal to the proper seals fit. Machining a 1.5 mm shim is a easy job for a good machinist. I've had .060 " shims made to fit between the inner race and a shaft with no problems. Both made from brass and aluminum. Paul

High Crimes and Misdemeanors: Resolution to Impeach EPA Head To Be Introduced in Congress Just one month after the EPA poisoned Colorado's Animas River when government workers punched a hole in a gold mine they were supposed to be cleaning up, Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar is leading the way to introduce a resolution of impeachment for EPA Administrator Regina McCarthy. The resolution, which can be found here, accuses McCarthy of lying under oath to Congress, perjury and high crimes and misdemeanors. "Impeaching Regina McCarthy, Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, for high crimes and misdemeanors," the resolution states. A Dear Colleague letter is also being circulated on Capitol Hill in order to gain support for the resolution and details multiple instances when Gosar believes McCarthy made false statements under oath. "Administrator McCarthy committed perjury and made several false statements at multiple congressional hearings, and as a result, is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors—an impeachable offense," the letter written by Gosar states. "Perjury and making false statements to Congress are an affront to the fundamental principles of our republic and the rule of law, and such behavior cannot be tolerated. This bill holds Administrator McCarthy accountable for her blatant deceptions and unlawful conduct." A few examples included in the letter: On July 9, 2015, Administrator McCarthy appeared before the House Committee on Space, Science, and Technology and made false statements in violation of section 1001 of title 18, United States Code. When questioned on how a provision in the administration’s new Waters of the United States (WOTUS) rule was developed which allows previously non-jurisdictional waters to be regulated if they have a “significant nexus” to jurisdictional waters within 4,000 feet, McCarthy falsely claimed, “It is available in the docket…and that’s what we relied on, both the knowledge and expertise of our staff, the information that we received from the public and comments and the science that’s available to us.” An April 27th memo to Jo-Ellen Darcy, Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, from Major General John Peabody, proves that this was a false statement and that the 4,000 foot determination was not based on science stating, “The arbitrary nature of the 4,000-foot cutoff of jurisdiction is demonstrated by the fact that EPA staff engaged in drafting the rule told Corps staff during a conference call in March 2015 that EPA was going to cut off [Clean Water Act] jurisdiction at a distance of 5,000 feet from the [ordinary high water mark] of traditional navigable waters, interstate waters, territorial seas, impoundments or tributaries. Then, three days later, EPA staff changed its position” and went with the 4,000-foot cutoff; “EPA staff never provided any scientific support or justification for either a 5,000-foot or 4,000-foot cutoff.” Furthermore, Federal Judge Ralph R. Erickson also found “the 4,000 foot cutoff to establish jurisdiction over ‘similarly situated’ waters has no connection to relevant scientific data” and cited this fact as one of the primary reasons for his injunction issued August 27, 2015. On July 29, 2015, Administrator McCarthy appeared before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and committed perjury in violation of section 1621 of title 18, United States Code. At the hearing, I entered into the Congressional Record the April 27th and May 15th memorandums from Corps’ Major General Peabody. These memos include remarks that directly contradict statements made under oath by Administrator McCarthy at the hearing including: that Gen. Peabody and other Army Corps employees had “serious concerns about certain aspects of the draft final rule”; that “the Corps’ recommendations related to our most serious concerns have gone unaddressed”; that “the rule’s contradictions with legal principles generate multiple legal and technical consequences that, in the view of the Corps, would be fatal to the rule in its current form”; that “our technical review of both documents indicate that the Corps data provided to EPA has been selectively applied out of context, and mixes terminology and disparate data sets”; and that “In the Corps' judgment, the documents contain numerous inappropriate assumptions with no connection to the data provided, misapplied data, analytical deficiencies, and logical inconsistencies. As a result, the Corps' review could not find a justifiable basis in the analysis for many of the documents' conclusions.” Legislation for the resolution is expected to be introduced Thursday or Friday of this week. McCarthy was appointed EPA administrator by President Obama in July 2013. Her short tenure has been embroiled in controversy.

"People should and do trust me" - Hillary Clinton
41chevy replied to kscarbel2's topic in Odds and Ends
Good News: Official Overseeing Release of Hillary Emails is a Maxed-Out Hillary Donor As Mary Katharine says, they want to "look proactive and responsive," yet the appearance of impropriety doesn't faze them one whit, evidently. Plus, Jacobs made her maximum contribution to Hillary's campaign whole months before taking on this role, so what's the big deal anyway? Speaking of optics, what does it say that the State Department's choice to oversee transparency efforts is an enthusiastic financial supporter of a woman who deliberately side-stepped transparency and national security protocols by installing a private, unsecure email server in her home, through which she improperly conducted all of her sensitive official business? Yeah, Jacobs will be a real stickler. Impartial, too. Which brings us back to Mrs. Clinton, whose campaign finally decided that a simulacrum of an apology was in order. As Katie noted earlier, they released amea culpa email last night, defending Hillary's actions with four bullet points. Much like a recent campaign memo, this faux apology is riddled with intentional misdirection, misleading assertions, and outright falsehoods. Not quite as bad as allowing Iran to inspect itself at a contentious nuclear site, but perhaps a smidge worse than tapping a generous Obama donor to oversee the Justice Department's investigation of the IRS scandal. This gang pays quite a lot of lip service to accountability and transparency -- sometimes to the point of satire -- but they have zero interest in either. Janice Jacobs and the State Department argue that critics are up in arms over nothing, of course: Ms. Jacobs said she made that donation as a private citizen and months before she had entered into conversations with the State Department about her new role. She retired from the State Department in June 2014; moreover, federal employees aren’t barred from donating to campaigns. “I think that the announcement lays it out pretty clearly what Secretary Kerry has hired me for and it’s not just the Clinton emails, but in general to make sure that the department is as responsive and efficient as it can be in handling the various document requests that come in,” she said. “He just wants to make sure it’s all well-coordinated and that deadlines are met and that we just look proactive and responsive.” Katie dealt with some of these statements in her post, but here are a few more thoughts, one by one: (1) Hillary "takes responsibility" for something for which she's refused to apologize and still insists was totally above-board and permitted. What do those two words mean in this context anyway? Remember, the problem was not "using a personal account." The problem was using a single, unsecure account for all of her emails, both personal and professional. The problem was deliberately setting up an off-site, unsecure server for this purpose. The problem was habitually mishandling of classified materials. The problem was recklessly compromising top secret information. The problem was not reporting classification "spillage," as required. (2) This scheme was not permitted under the rules; just the opposite. And her justifications on these points are "laughable," according to an expert on these matters, who happens to be a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat. Hillary's email arrangement and conduct may well have broken federal law, which is why the FBI is actively investigating potential felony violations. (3) Hillary Clinton both sent and received (at least) hundreds of classified emails, several of which have been determined to have contained top secret information. Claiming that the messages weren't "marked" classified is a red herring. Officials with security clearances are given extensive training about how to identify and handle sensitive information. Such material is "born classified," so to speak. Hillary pronounced herself "well aware of the classification requirements" earlier this year, meaning she's also well aware that fixating on official email markings is not a valid defense. A timely reminder from a former NSA analyst, steeped in these protocols: (4) She did not belatedly hand over all work-related emails to the State Department. She withheld an unknown number of them, which we know because one of her top confidant's unsecure, private emails were hacked and leaked. How many of the more than 30,000 "personal" emails she ordered destroyed actually pertained to her official duties? What didn't she want average Americans or investigators to see? The FBI may be able to answer those questions at some point. -

Critics push U.S. to help Europe by taking more refugees

The U.N. mandates which member country gets how many. The "suggestion" to Obama was 350,000 and for him to ask Syria declare them "Emergency Refugees" which over comes the U.S. Limit of 70,000. -

"People should and do trust me" - Hillary Clinton
41chevy replied to kscarbel2's topic in Odds and Ends
New York Times September 8.2015 Adam Schiff, a liberal California Democrat appointed to the Benghazi Committee by Nancy Pelosi, is planning to move to have the committee disbanded. In a New York Times interview, Adam Schiff called for the committee to be disbanded, and he attacked it smearing it as "a terrible mistake," and "a dangerous precedent." MSNBC host Rachel Maddow picked up where Schiff ended calling for Congress to "end the charade" and "disband the Benghazi panel." Even getting the committee formed was a struggle... Congressman Frank Wolf first introduced a resolution calling for a committee to investigate Benghazi, but Boehner refused to act on it. Then, Congressman Steve Stockman used a procedural move called a "discharge petition" to put pressure on Boehner to form the committee. Finally, after months of pressure from grassroots conservatives, Boehner finally gave in and formed the Benghazi Committee. Now a motion to disband the committee may actually get a vote in Congress. The last thing insiders want is to be blamed for Hillary losing the election... ...or going to prison. -

62 Mack B85 Alternator / Rectifier
41chevy replied to mholm's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Starters like old generators can be polarized for a negative or positive ground system. They are an electric motor. Bench run it with a positive ground set up and it should be fine. If the grounds were reversed the Rectifier bridge could be toast. Some where I have the test values for the entire charging system. Paul -

Her being humble and an "ashamed " woman will probably boost her in the eyes obamanites and free loaders. The media compared her to Nelson Mandela's persecution (?). . . I do too, so lets put her arse in jail for 27 years like him, see how she disdains the American people than. Paul
