Er....where's the overload switch?
-
Is full capacity after 7 years really possible?
-
Interesting reading.
-
Has anyone tried the YUASA version of the Trojan T105?
-
My Trojans are on their last legs. I've ordered some more. Meanwhile my battery charger won't start to charge unless I put the kettle on! Anyone know why?

He's been in touch with Deutz. New oil cooler probably. Engineer coming to check tomorrow.
-
My friend just found oil in the cooling system header tank. Any advice please
-
I’m trying to suss out how those winches are connected to the tubular spud legs?
-
Thoughts on a 230 volt motor to power the cable to lift a spud leg, as opposed to a 12 volt motor to avoid voltage drop?

Someone told me that all the hire boats on the Canal du Midi (and there are hundreds) discharge straight into the canal. Doesn’t seem to cause any problems.
-
Great stuff. glad you’ve cleared that up for me.?

It’s an inboard marine Genny so no need for an I G then.
-
I never plug into a landline as I have a Genny and solar panels. Do I need a galvanic isolator?
-
Is it true that surveyors no longer need to grind off hull coating to get down to bare metal, in order to carry out hull thickness?

Just wondered if some chooses to “Drawdown” their pension but takes less than £11,850 (personal Allowance) per year, is that all tax free, because I know that if they choose an annuity, only 25% is a tax free lump sum and the monthly payment is taxable?
-
Good point.

My manual is No 56 (August 1954) I don’t have any electrics running off the engine, apart from the alternator so maybe the 100 Ah battery would be OK.
-
I’m still hand starting, but just read my Gardner oil engine manual and it states “4, 5 and 6LW ..........148 ampere-hours at 10 hour rate” (100 ampere-hours is for the 2 and 3LWs)
-
No I’m not. But if the first cylinder doesn’t fire up, then the second one doesn’t etc, then the momentum of the flywheel is stopped and it becomes impossible to turn the handle further, whereas the JP4 allowed the operator to continue turning the handle, as only 1 cylinder would be under compression.
-
My point was that with the JP4 you are only “fighting” against 1 of the 4 cylinders which suddenly comes under full compression, as each cylinder has its own lever, whereas with the 4LW all 4 cylinders come under compression at once, so it the engine doesn’t fire up immediately you can’t continue to turn the handle.

I don’t understand what you mean.
