Is it really pulling that on a 12V system. I dont think so. There is another thread where it is explained why.Quote:

Awesome bit of kit. My uniden 9080 scanner/UHF arrived with one out of the box. Pretty handy.Quote:

Excellent. Have been looking for something like this for my Icom for the same reason. Just ordered two of them. Thinking about mounting it on the side of the existing roof lights.Quote:

Geez three dogs , your taste in music is varied but similar to mine , don't suppose you've heard much from accept have you ?
Wellllll. Just after this post I had this motor on the stand and started tearing it down. the timing case behind the water pump looked amazing. There was a little bit of gunk in the galleries, but I assume it had been sitting. No big deal.Quote:

Flipped it over to pull the sump off, and the bores looked good. But I notice the smell of the oil it wasn't right, then I notice some blue heat marks on the crank next to main cap 3. More heat marks next to the caps on cylinder 1, 4 and 6. Then looked at the big ends and they have blue marks on them aswell. So I get a magnet and wipe is around the sump and pulled up some swarf, decent pieces. Get onto the mob that sold the motor to me and sent some pics. They offered to replace or refund without hassle which is good. Then they asked if I could pull a main cap off and send through some pictures. The cap I pulled off had had some thing decent go through it. Probably what I pulled from the sump. The crank journal had some heat discolouration too. That was straw coloured.
I heard this Motor run before I bought it and it really did sell itself. It sounded sweet so I thought I was onto a winner. But no....not this one. Lucky I did have a good look at because today I took it back and they had another one there with the sump and a cap off already. It was in better nick than the first one, a bit second hand, but in reality what you would expect from a second hand engine. I was also reimbursed some money to cover replacing bearings on this motor they aren't really bad, you could run it for a long time if wanted to but I'm going to carry on with mods so new bearings would be good.
Very lucky Benny!
The mob you got the engine off sound pretty decent without fuss.

It's good to hear they looked after you Benny.
very good to hear Ben-e-boy sounds like they are a honest company.

Brought myself a 20amp waterproof mttp solar reg,
that will go in the engine bay,to run another panel somewhere
Am I right in saying this needs to be mounted close to the battery??
I bought some cable and a 120watt folding solar panel. Going to need to keep the battery charged for this damned CPAP machine I need to use now. Guess I better grab an inverter also.
Closer the better threedogs , just make sure it's not going to be affected by heat too much and is it waterproof ?Quote:

I bought two apps for maps. Hema and Mudmaps.
Pretty disappointing in both apps. Found out after purchase. Hema don't have 4x4 maps for Android. Only IOS.
And Mud Maps are pretty limiting in track names and can't really zoom in properly.
Any one else had any experience with them on Android?
A lamb pack. Had a couple of chops to night and the roast will be for dinner tomorrow.
I cant say for those two bud but I use Memory Map on Android with good success.Quote:

I've been quoted some ridiculous prices for Remaps, with one mob wanting an extra $500 for a manual boost controller, on top of $3000 for exhaust/remap, Fark That!
