m8, I thank you for your patience, the council is run in the best way to cause as much as buggerance as possible to those by not in the 'club'. The council is mistaken tho in it's assertion that voluntary works don't and can't happen. In the precurser legislation to the NERCA, there was an...

Paul !! Shocked........................... lol :)

One Boss site...................... visit it, go on, you know you want to............................. http://www.glu.org.uk/ ok, another Boss site............... http://glag.co.uk/forum/ visit and read, you'll be glad you did. Now is the winter of our discontent.......... yes I know...

I had a Ryder winch on my rangie, in the 5 years I had it, I used it on sites, maybe once a year, a few times helping the general public out of ditches etc but given the insurance nightmares nowadays, I don't think I'd fit one again. Its a dead weight to carry and drains the hell out of your...

I guess you could find a rheostat to hold 300w or so, but a little pointless. The best way is to fix the alternator, if one diode's gone, then more will follow. I'd recommend that the first port of call is to actually prove that the alternator is duff..............14.35 is on the high side. It...

I agree, fix the alternator is the best option, and if its just a diode, then it's simple enough. The basic fix I've underlined won't effect the charging circuit, nor will the battery be damaged, the only thing it will do is limit the current going into the plug. Nothing more or less. So as a...

I hope this is useful folks.............. Total RMS Power (watts) Distance 4 feet 8 feet 12 feet 16 feet 20 feet 100 10 gauge 10 gauge 8 gauge 8 gauge 4 gauge 200 10 gauge 8 gauge 8 gauge 4 gauge 4 gauge 400 8 gauge 8 gauge 4 gauge 4 gauge 4 gauge 600 8 gauge 4 gauge 4 gauge 4 gauge 4...

If we use I=P/V, 170 watts divided by 14 volts dc, we get the current to be around 12.1 Amps. Now we can work out the DC resistance of the circuit, using R=V/I which if we divide 14vdc by 12.1 gives us 1.157 ohms. So we add a 2R resistor to the load in series, giving us a total load of 3.1...

if the voltage is too high, you could always put in a current limiting resistor capable of say handling 200 watts, depending on the load, which I guess will be in the range of 10R. The idea is to limit the current going through the plug, you'd get a small volt drop depending on the value of the...

LPG on a diesel turbo engine.............. interesting, I had a rangie V8 on gas, went very well, diesel should be better, more complete burn etc. The system should have a stepper motor controlling the gas input tho......... tied into the ECU, it'll require re-programming I guess. Just a few...

could you scan them and send them out in block form................ ??

just for the record, if your T2 is anything like mine, it has NATS fitted, then it's catagory 2 Thatcham................... Damned insurance companies.....

Anyone who uses gas should have a carbon monoxide detector fitted. Carbonmonoxyde is an odourless killer and is responsible for a fair few deaths each year, I have one fitted to the boat, which I consider essential, I know others who don't bother. I'd also recommend some Kidde extinguishers, not...

Next we'll have systems compying with BS 5839 parts 1 & 2.......... Damn good thread tho, thanks Terranno ............ As a sometime design engineer in the life safety industry, I can only underline the recommendation that fire/carbon monoxide detection becomes a standard wherever human life...

its no spoof, I've removed my number from the list.............

I've just re done the math on the T2 intercooler, mass of air movement for 3200 rpm, (estimated), The HHO system cannot produce enough, I'd need around 5 to 7 litres a minute depending on RPM/load. I'm happy that the general principle works, I can power a 2.8kva generator off HHO, a 12vdc...

I'm still working on the HHO system, just need to get the thing working with a turbo, works on a disco, just don't know why it won't work on my T2

interesting............... and yes, proven via the article, I'm working on an HHO real time generate and use system, works on naturally aspirated diesels less than 2.5l but not my T2, so under development.

that's why I copied some of one of the posts onto the CRAG forum asking for info, we should know by the end of the day I hope..........
