I'm is Southeast Michigan. I've unstuck my share of bleed nipples - wrench on with a little torque, tap the nipple on its axis a few times, and it'll come off...
I drive through the U.P. to get to Fargo just to avoid Chicago. It's a little more driving, but FAR more pleasant. Donald. -- *Plain Text* email -- it's an...
camarines norte is a good place. but checkout the peace and order situation first. my wife's province is camsur. its on the upswing with cheap land. i dont ...
Hi MIke, Yea, I know the value of a dollar........I make Abe cry a lot. Repairing rather than replacing is often not fiscally responsible - just not always...
Hi Donald, I miss going north. I would so much more prefer driving through woods than concrete and brick surrounded by masses of busy people. Havn't been to...
I put some wood on my little trailer today getting ready for the trip to Ks. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WoodGas/photos/album/416897568/pic/select If I...
Hey Wayne, Looking forward to seeing you again in a few days. Make sure you bring a spare tire(s) this time. Forecast is for mid 90's for all of us so the...
Hey Stuart, I hope your trip east is going OK. I will call tonight. Is there a decent swimming hole near your place ?? It's gonna be hot. Thanks, Mike L...
Hi, I got tires switched around. Put some oversize ones on the back. 9.9% overdrive. Picked up a master cylinder too. Just have to see what happens. Best, Ron...
Hey Mike, I think you said your leaving in the morning, safe travels. I wish we were convoying, I could catch your back if need be. Leaving Sunday afternoon...
Hi Ron O, Stuart lost his truck on the way east. It had multiple organ failure but the killer was when it jumped time. I spoke with both him and his wife a bit...
David, I plan to leave Friday morning. Hopefully truck and I will make it in the condition we set out in (or better condition). That 50 is a big thing. Half a...
Hi Mike, I've been online with otter. It's not looking to good for him/us going. Wait and see kind of thing. Don't know/understand all of the details. Rain -...
Hey Woodgas people, This is for Mr. Garringer. I have heard you rant and rave on Ben before. Let me give you some advice. Please correct the MANY spelling...
Mike L; I have noticed a disturbing trend and I need to ask you about it. I have noticed that you never actually drive on woodgas for any distance. When you...
Hi Tom C, You are OK to pick on me. I can still afford to buy gasoline just like most of the folks around me and my truck is set up for local drives. I try to...
Hi, Tom! After others have answered to your main question, I want to go through your build. "I have spent three years trying to get where I can drive on wood...
Max, Here is a picture of Tom and myself at his place http://www.intergate.com/~mlarosa/images/woodgas/Tom-Collins.jpg It was from July of 2009. He had built 2...
My $.79 pressure sensors have arrived from Electronic Goldmine (sale ends 6/6 but then still cheap). A quick look shows .05mV/"H2O with 6V excitation. Not very...
Hi, Mike! I am avoiding to speculate about the Pope's beard, as far as I can. "Every" woodgas book talks about "critical measures" because they are CRITICAL in...
Thanks Tinker, Still wish I had met you in Berkeley so I could have a face to remember. So it appears they will need an amplifier to operate appropriately in...
Yes, need an amplifier unless willing to put up w 2"H2O resolution - or spring for a meter w more resolution or put up w the offset from using 12V. Looking...
Mike, If you need the better resolution it may be best to go with MPXV4115VC6U for $14.20 from Digikey - 9.51mv/"H2O if I did my numbers right. Two resistors...
Jonathen, I have worked on my website so take a look, it still may have some errors I am not a good speller. But I will call it as I see it, I may spell bad...
