Root Removal from Septic Tank Exit Pipe
My_horse replied to 8ntruck's topic in non tractor related discussion
I want to start doing this. I’d like to dump it right in the exit pipe. I have a filter on the exit pipe, so I could pull the filter, then make a piece of smaller pvc with an elbow to fit in the exit pipe to funnel it in there. -

Also on the subject of the bellcrank the hydraulic one I have has been welded on in the past if anyone happens to have one out they could take a photo of to see if the angle is still correct. -

We played smart on the loam. Notice that the stones are there. They've been setting for at least a year because of a change of plans. The stones will still be used.... just waiting for the excavator to make time. No rush. They ain't in the way. - Yesterday

The wife had 4 cubic yards of "Mushroom dirt " delivered to put in totes for tomatoes, peppers zucchini ect. She had them dump it in the drive way. She has used half of it. I put 4 loader buckets full into a flower bed. There's about a 1/4 of it left in the driveway in her way. I keep asking where she wants me to put it and she hasn't made up her mind. I hope it's not there this winter! -
Your ignition points should just begin to open at the time the "S" appears in the timing hole on the compression stroke, a setting of 0.20 will occur later in the revaluation and there is no particular marking on the flywheel for this. You probably would be best off using the static timing method. The manual covers it well in Section 6, page 9.

This pic will give you an idea of the overall dimensions.

Sounds like a bit of deferred maintenance issues. The cam and plat as Mike @squonk mentioned are the prime suspects. Read through the manual Gary @gwest_ca provided and be sure your linkage is not binding someplace. If you need the cam and plate K&B has new ones. -
is the engine shutting down suddenly and under load when the ground cable broke traumatic to the condenser ? I don't have a timing light so I went with .020 with flywheel at "T", that's right isn't it

Got pics of the cylinder? -

Been thinking and I have these parts I got off Pullstart, the brake pedal is the narrower one to give room for the cylinder while I do have a proper bellcrank/rockshaft for the hydraulic cylinder as you can see I have everything for hydro hydraulics as well. So I have been thinking I don't really want to rob a cylinder from a complete system not to mention there are some gouges at the top of the cylinder rod probably from a pipe wrench. So I think instead of finding another hydraulic bellcrank I will cut off the lift arm and weld a arm on for the hydraulics. So I still need a cylinder, wheelhorse cylinders aren't exactly dropping from the sky and a lot of them need rebuilt. And maybe this will be helpful to other people as well but I came across this one, retracted length is very similar the pin hole is correct at 3/4" the stroke appears to be the same at 5" which would make the extended length the same. So all that would be needed is to fab a bracket for the threaded end to attach to the bellcrank. Anyone see any issues with this? I figure no possible rod damage to deal with with used units plus it doesn't need a possible rebuild right away on top of buying a used cylinder. -
Yep. Tough place....

That was 60 years ago when I camped on this beach in a tent. Jake the drummer just arrived Mark. HE may be playing at the Black Cap again soon. I'll let you know. -
Gotcha. I ask because I've seen pickups and semis with what appears to be RV style AC units on the roof. If that's a feasible option id consider it for my Ford. A very small one..... Done right... they look ok.

It does! She’s a dream to bomb around on, smooth and quiet. This one might get the next mowing session here -

Here in Maine we are pretty much limited to late spring for loam deliveries. That's due to two things. 1. Mud Season. The fields and forests where the loam comes from are mud pits until mid to late April most years. 2. Sharp demand early in the year dictates a lack of availability for the rest of the warm seasons. Sooooooooo..... A week or so ago the BBT and I were babbling about future plans for the garden area. This fall she wants to add more loam. Can't buy it then. Gotta buy it now. So she moved the big flatbed trailer out of its parking spot tucked into the front forest and the guy came today to deliver 4 cubic yds of nice clean fresh dark brown loam. -

Had that problem with a previous drain field. If you attach a 2" PVC pipe to the tank outlet pipe you can use this to add a couple of pounds of Copper Sulfate to kill the roots. I did this once a month for a year and then went to once a month for a year. Everything was flowing well and I continued to do this once every three months. -

Every things in a pile! Only thing organized neatly is Eric's new K181 long block -
Those symptoms could be a faulty condenser. To test this just disconnect the condenser from the ignition coil, the engine can run without it for a short time for testing. If an engine idles well, but runs erratically when revved up, like it hits and misses, pops and backfires, then chances are, it needs a new condenser/capacitor. And always install a condenser/capacitor with the wire facing downward so rain water and/or when washing off engine, water will not enter inside condenser/capacitor, ruining it. With water inside the condenser, this will also allow it to idle well, but cause it to run erratically when revved up.

Most of those guys will have a spring loaded razor sharp expandable bit that will conform to the pcv walls and slice the roots out. May enlarge the pipe a few thou! -
not new I don't, the one that's on it is less than an hour use, but it was an amazon cheapy

Have another condenser you can try?
