Houston area (along with DB's not from Houston) BS thread

gas tank will fix it?

 

Yes. Even tho the tank was cleaned a few days ago, I'm still getting silt and rust in the lines and filter. The rust is clogging up the needle valve thus machine running out of gas.

 

Gotcha

 

Well. It SHOULD fix it. Hopefully at least.

 

You could rig up a temp (small, cheap) gas can/tank to get working again. Assuming you're careful and don't set it on fire. Could also verify that it is the tank.

 

I'm gonna look around this evening and see if we have any plastic tanks laying around I could try and rig up.

 

What welder? I thought it was 220

 

This is a generator style welder. Stick welder.

 

Well, there's your problem, keeps plugging in the gas tank.

 

Anyone want Beer delivered??

 

Won't work with welding on truck frame?

 

Ehhh. It doesn't leave as clean of a weld profile and isn't ideal for thin metals.

 

Yes please

 

Could have just said 'no', dick.

 

Well. The answer isn't no lol

 

Fool me once.

 

Depended what we're welding, stick could work.

 

When I get these lowers off I want a bead behind my alignment tabs and I will just sell the gusset kit

 

What do you want?

What? I went to like 4 different places looking for your beer last time and they didn't have it..

 

. 4:30p.m. rigged a 1/2 gallon gas tank up. From a 2.5 gallon tank to a .5 gallon is gonna be interesting. But it might just work long enough to do that cattle pen job and make some cash. Just gonna have to keep an eye on the fuel level. Gonna run the machine for a few hours today and hope its fixed.
