Hello R., Has luck would have, my power went out due to a tripped main breaker in the outside main power box this evening and I figured I was good to start up the 15KW Generac and power the house. After running for a couple of minutes to warm it up. it started weeping oil out of the fuel...

This is a lawnmower forum. Take your political views elsewhere folks.

The early (dark brown bag) MRE's were questionable, and a lot of troops developed digestive issues if they had to eat them for very long during deployments. Some of the newer (light tan bag) MRE's are actually pretty decent and the portion sizes are better. I still have not figured out why...

The P38 is a GI tool that never wears out, but you don't keep them sharp. LOL I still carry my P38 on my key ring. We had MREs when I was in the Air Force back in the mid 80's, but it was still handy to have one around. I still get some funny looks from "green civilians" who have never seen...

This is the world we a living in: Society is being fed so much bad information by the current internet world that no one actually can distinguish the truth from fiction. https://www.metabunk.org/threads/debunked-we-will-bury-you-without-firing-a-shot.942/

Hello H., Many areas of the world have raised their children as government dependents with no real-world experience of having to be independent. I know 4th generation welfare families who think that is their way of getting by aka. "Making a living". I grew up in the 60's out in the rural...

Hello H., I agree to a point, but in our "throw it away" economy people don't want to pay for repairs hardly, especially on portable generators. I had a couple of them surrendered by customers this year, so I fixed them up and sold them.

Hello M., A couple of years ago when I decided to hardwire in my Portable 15KW Generac to my house, I had no complaints from my family when it came time to put it to work in the heat of summer or the cold of winter. Before then, I was using a smaller (bare minimum) 6.5KW portable generator to...

Last year, I also quit letting anyone drop off or pick up equipment except the actual owner.

Hello G., This guy just wants to play the victim like much of our society does these days. It will likely be early next year before I hear anything more from the county court. Meanwhile, the machine will just sit, chained to a farm tractor.

With a cutting torch, a stick welder and some heavy scrap metal anything is possible.

Hello E., Single digit weather is no time to be working on anything outside. We are lucky and might only get in the upper 30's (overnight) down here in South Texas by this Sunday.... I was raised in the mountains of Virginia, and I respect the cold weather, but I don't miss it all that much...

Hello E., We specifically need all the information that is stamped into the top of one of the engine rocker/valve covers. If the valve cover has been off, it could have been reinstalled upside down, so the numbers would be on the underside. Can you see the gear on the top of the starter? If...

I use a Thexton 404 most of the time for small engine and automotive.
