  1. Not just hyd pressure, Air and the various Gasses used everyday are as dangerous it only takes 4psi to pass through skin. If I remember correctly. Its a minefield out there.
  2. Welcome, you have a really good selection of vehicles well loaded with the tools of the trade.
  3. Life is full of compromises. It looks good and safe.
  4. What a great looking truck. Good luck with the delivery.
  5. Only problem is the same as Blue Belle and others.( Forum Raiders) your art appears in other places without your permission
  6. They have an indefinable something you do not find in a photograph
  7. I can empathise with a good sulk but even they are interesting sometimes. When you come out of it we need more please. Do not let them grind you down.
  8. You have been busy. Where is the first show for the Dodge?
  9. Give it time and all of a sudden you will just click with the gearbox and you will wonder what all the fuss was about. Its a slow truck and empty so it does not roll well just keep the revs down because the old AEC pulls for fun. Revs to road speed you cannot get your technique right untill you get some time behind the wheel.
  10. Welcome, Grinding, welding, and painting is it DBG, or sand coloured. Along with everything from CAD to waiting for pictures of new born puppies.
  11. With the black probe pushed between the points it is closing the circuit and will be giving you false information. Is there any power at the leads you have taken off the dynamo. Do you still have the power drain without the dynamo?
  12. Aluminium is never easy to repair, even modern grades. So to finish like that is very good. Sigh of relief and on to the next job
  13. A sad day indeed. Thoughts with the bereaved and best wishes for recovery of the injured. Brings home the dangers of being a Tankie
  14. Welcome in. A QL. not for the faint hearted. Many QL owners on here. I did hear of a QL tanker in a field in Staffordshire, but I do not know precise location.
  15. Are the points closed on the relay. Take the power lead off the dynamo put a meter between the wire and the terminal on the dynamo to check there is no current flow with the engine off. Also do the same with the power input on the ignition coil to make sure there is not a small leak from the ignition switch.
  16. Stuck contact in the voltage regulator, set up is pretty basic when compaired to modern vehicles look for wires or dynamo getting warm
  17. afv handbooks.com seem to have one
  18. Move up the must visit list
  19. Its part of the journey. Good research Great pictures.
