The hot Co-op: Going to be close to 100 today…….

……….  Yep, that would be living in Florida right now……and it’s NOT a dry heat!  A shower this evening will feel good.

after installing block off plates on the cracked intakethe carb proved it needs some love…… Decisions are being made……stay tuned.

Here’s a pic of the latest arrival this weekend

Hmmm, that’s weird, the pic wouldn’t load…….after it’s mechanical review this project goes into our mechanical que to get its share of love.  I’ll do another pic later.there we goWe have a classic movie star getting ready to fire upand there’s Dr. Frankenstein back there bringing it alive……… Oh yeah, we’re going robotic!   What are we doing with an ABB welding robot?  Stay tuned………

Ok, I’ve procrastinated enough…..time to get out in the heat …..get the sweat going and make this a great day…….. Make today something special……thanks for coming by and we’ll see you later………

One other note of interest, here’s a pic of the “3 battery switches” along with the Semlax acr-160 solid state 430amp peak combined cir?hit tied to our self exciting “1 wire alternator” circuitno more blue tinned isolator, no more .8 volt drop in alternator output, direct alternator feed to the engine battery and a 160 amp continuous switch to tie in the living area battery while driving.  The 3 switches….1 for the living area electrical system and 1 for the engine battery, the 3rd hi current battery switch manually ties all battery systems together for charging all batteries while not running the motor plugged in or running your generator.  This is also a countermeasure allowing the on board charger to see the engine battery in case your alternator craps out.  These backup countermeasures for your electrical system will give you confidence you WILL be able to charge your batteries and run your coach.    Give me a call if you’re like to know more.

 

Ok….im really outa here, see ya later.Good lazy Eleganza…..thats the life!
