Well someone who isn't me experimented a bit, and found that what ate up the most air speed was to cut off the mixture and have the throttle wide open lol. Oh and BTW, that someone who isn't me did some experiments on spinning a Cherokee 180. It was hard to get the damn thing to spin, and really hard to get it to stop spinning. It took about 8,000 feet. Nothing like a Cessna

I have a Dynatard on my R686 tractor, and I used to drive a R686 with a 750 Holmes on it with a Jake. As far as I remember the Jake performed about the same as my Dynatard. Then again comparing them is kind of hard, different loads, different hills, different amounts of wheels with operating brakes, hardly a scientific test. BTW I was always curious about putting an exhaust brake on a reciprocating aircraft engine. A windmilling prop eats up a lot of airspeed. It'd probably be great for a steep dive

Yeah, you're a total dick

Or better yet

I got better mileage from my EN707 gasoline powered LF wrecker. Hell you'd probably do better with a Hall Scott 1091

Yeah that would be a problem. How do we know this for sure? Somebody could have put a red knob on anything. I'd want a picture of the valves with the cover off the dash. God only knows what the kind of guy that welds to frame flanges might have done

You know how many old trucks I've seen converted from handbrake to Maxis without any kind of anti-compounding provision? Pretty much every conversion I've seen. And I've yet to see it break anything. Anybody else remember the 55,000s with the rotochambers on them. You couldn't just bolt a 30/30 maxi on them without some mods

So he hasn't even tested to see if the line coming from the dash valve is pressurizing when he pushes the knob in?

Try this. Connect the line from the dash valve straight through to the rubber hose going to the quick release valve mounted on the axle. Eliminate the valve you circled in yellow, just use a coupler. Clamp the line you highlighted in blue off with a pair of vise grips. See if your maxi's release and your service brakes work

Find a more common version of that rear, and bolt your pumpkin in it. Be nice if you could find one out of a Mack. Although it sounds like a lot less work to just have that bore welded up and re-machined

Over 140 young girls, mostly Russian Jews and Italians burned or jumped and died. But hey, we were all slave masters and need to pay "reparations"

I don't know, I'm starting to question everything I was taught in school Here is right from a LBGTSDFGHJKML website

If I was Governor of Pa I'd open my State of the State with this

These Brown Shirts liked red flags too. Probably reflected the Evil Eye when they were burning porn and books written by pedophiles.

WTF is this like "Dance Party With Beyonce?

I'd go with the red. It makes the Evil Eye bounce off and go back to whoever was casting the Evil Eye. That is why old school Italians always had red dump trucks, and wore the chain with the little red pepper. Jews had a thing like that too, they used to tie a red ribbon on babies for some kind of evil eye thing. That is why the red roof protected that house from the Jewish Space Lasers

Yeah you're a 13%er Should get a 13%er patch made op kinda like these guys with their 1%

Yeah there is cloud point, and there is pour point. Your fuel supplier will supply you with those temperatures if you ask. But I get guys who claim their truck shut down while running for hours in 20 degree weather, and that they looked in the tank and saw "jello". And I get there and the primary filter is all bound up with water. I don't know about now, but years ago "anti-gel" additives didn't treat for water (I've never bought the stuff). If I treat for water, and add a little biocide to prevent the algae I never have a problem. Actually without water contamination the algae will never get started as it lives in the interface. I don't know why none of them can't grasp it, it's pretty simple. I think it's because they are allergic to reading or something and they just go with a story some clown in a truck stop told them because he had a drop visor, low hanging bumper and a gazillion chicken lights (That makes him the wisest one) But anyway, 64 years on this earth, and grew up in a garage family, and I've yet to see this "jello" that they all think happens. It just doesn't get anywhere near cold enough around here for the fuel to get below the "pour point"

I've never seen a truck or piece of equipment with "Gelled" fuel. I've heard lots of drivers and mechanics BS cockamainy stories about tanks full of stuff that looked like grease and other shit. But every time I get there i find water or ice. I'm sure gelling happens somewhere, but not in any of the areas I've operated in. I've poured sloppy water out of filters right in front of them and they still keep saying "gel" like it's the only word they know. After doing this full time for 50 years, and slaving for family in a garage for the first 14 years of my life, I've come to the conclusion that about 87 percent of truck drivers and mechanics are dumber than a box of rocks, and big time liars

Set up real nice too. 29,000 axle. You can lift lots more with that than a tandem. Keeps the fulcrum as close to the tailboard as possible

Jamacains think about stuff very different. In about 1990 I met a Jamaican welder when I was working on a water treatment plant and we got to be really close friends. Hard worker. Could operate equipment and drive a truck too. When we were working and things went all kinda wrong it wasn't my problem, it was OUR problem. (I was the site supervisor). He brought some other Jamaicans around, one a carpenter, and the other a laborer and they were very proud of showing you how hard they could work. Over the years we got pretty close, knowing each other's families, holiday visits and all. Before my mother died and was bedridden he used to come visit her and sit by her bedside and tell her stories about growing up in Jamacia, walking to town to go to the store, hearing a car coming and hiding in the ditch in case it was the "Blackhearts" climbing trees to get fruit, and how if you had a can of corned beef you were on top of the world. He used to have her laughing and laughing. Sadly cancer took him in 2013. Started in his prostrate, went into remission, came back about 2 years later, and spread to his bones. I think he was only 57. I don't know if all Jamaicans are like that, but all the ones I met from his village were all about honesty, working hard, and their children. And they were defiantly not Black, they were Jamaican
