Perhaps not. Most A/C induction motors draw their max amps at zero speed, that is called Lock-rotor amps, and it can be 400% of normal full load amps (FLA) An RV roof AC can draw 100-150 amps (breifly) on start up till the motor comes up to speed. Most A/C compressor motors do not have enough...

Possibly, just thinking... Maybe you A/C compressor cycled off, and started back up under pressure and the genny didnt have enought oomph to start it. Is that 3600 watt peak power or continous? Tim

Dude, where in the hell did I insult you? Was it when I called you "sir"? My arguement was logical. One of the problems with the helmet law supporters is they portray helmets as a foolproof guaranteed way to live through a motorcycle accident. We, as a people, need to understand that any...

Speculation on your part, sir. Its just as possible that the forces of the heavy helmet whipping around could have broke his neck and left him a cripple. I refuse to allow people to argue that someone would have "walked away" from an accident if they only had worn a helmet. There are many...

I painted up my zook the exact same way my race car was, back when I raced dirt track. Pink nose and all. ):h tim

A bunch of us went wheeling on saturday at washita ORP outside of Farmington MO. Great park, many neat trails. This is how my day started. And this is how it ended. (this was after I broke the right rear axle, to boot) Everyone was ok, but we got the shit scared out of us...

lane splitting here in missouri is legal, in the sense that it is not specifically prohibited... But that being said, its totally unheard of here. I rode in LA with my brother and did lane splitting. I can see the attraction. However the LA drivers seemed to accept it as normal. In St...

done! I wound up using the wifes "pampered chef" (there's a scam for ya, but that's another story) pastry roller to smooth it out and help press it into place. It appears to work very well. thanks for the help! Tim

Roger that. Is that the shit that comes out like silly string. thats what I thought I bought, but it was actually more like an aerosol spray. I'll cruise over to the napa tonight. thanks! tim

Damn. My old winnie is a bit "weathered" on the outside, but the inside looks just like the day it was made (except for some wear tracking in the carpet). I always like how nice it was inside. I went into it the other day and the damn headliner is seperating from its backing in a couple of...

I drain black first, but its not that big of a deal. I got a hydroflush thingy. Its a clear plastic elbow that hooks up to the outlet pipe with a hookup for a garden hose. The garden hose sprays a jet of water backwards up into the tank. You can actually fill the tank that way, then shut off...

Wearing a helmet does not mean you are indestructable. A helmet will only play a factor in roughly 40% of the accidents. Meaning, if you wreck, 60% of the time it makes NO difference whether you have a lid on or not. Most of the time you are just as dead either way. If you ride your bike at...

It'll cost about $30,000 i bet Tim

Cars of that style are called "donks". Do a google picture search for Donks and you will be amazed at what you see. Most of them arent quite so extreme, but they follow the "jacked up, big wheel, little tire" motif. From what I understand, they are called Donks because the brothers referred...

that is quite possibly the silliest set up ever. Almost as stupid as: Looks like the brothers got tired of building Impalas, and went to diesel truck. Call me old school, but whats the point of putting big, jewmongous wheels on a lifted truck with itty bitty high-performance...

I find myself spending a lot of time in my Class A in the driveway. I got the shore line out to the garage, so everything works but the plumbing. I just like being out there, Its private and quiet. I can see out into the neighborhood (which I can't do from the house very well) and watch the...

my guess is to not screw up the federal hiway funds... Interstates are the only roads the Feds have dominion over. tim

My shit has only been on a trailer once, that was the last time I took the RK to Gatlinburg, and only because I took the wife, and she was not up to the 12 hour one-way putt. I get 3 weeks vacation time next year, and I am realllllly thinking about heading out to Vegas, and then LA, so I can...

yesterday the Missouri House passed SCS SB202. That means the bill passed both in the senate and house. Its on to the Governor to sign, next. The bill provides for 2 things... #1 it keeps anyone (i.e. insurance companies) from laying blame on anyone just because they were operating a...

I firmly belive that any bike looks it's least cool when parked outside the bar. I frequent Shady Jacks in St. louis. Great biker bar. You see everything from $60,000 customs, to rat bike to antiques to thing that make you go.. UGH. Nothing I like more than to watch a guy on a Big Dog (for...
