Re: [EVDL] EVnewswire status: heart, again
Hi Bruce,
Sorry to hear you are having those problems again. Get yourself to the
hospital so they can fix things for you and don't worry about sending
posts to us. The info will still be there when you feel well again. You
have probably had too much stress lately with the move and the car
issues, etc. Recover quickly. We will watch for you to be back to normal
soon.

my long observation period laying on a gurney connected with tubes and
sensors with monitor beeps and nurse's chatter (as if no one else can hear).
So, EV news posts may be delayed.
I hope to post the items I have queued later (I am in training for a 10hr
fasting period on Tuesday starting at 1am, for an 11am lab blood draw).
I have better take a nap now, to regain some energy :-zzz

Re: [EVDL] EVnewswire status: heart, again
Bruce,Sorry to hear you are dealing with this again. I am sure you would be surprised to know how many positive thoughts and prayers are being sent your way by people you probably couldn't pick out of a police lineup but whose lives you have touched in some way on your journey. Best of luck with treatment and let us know how it went. You know, just had a thought... Isn't a defibrillator basically a speed controller? Maybe you just need a `Zilla upgrade :-) Dach. "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are" - Theodore Roosevelt “We reached the old wolf in time to watch a fierce green fire dying in her eyes I was young then, and full of trigger-itch; I thought that because fewer wolves meant more deer, that no wolves would mean hunters’ paradise. But after seeing the green fire die, I sensed that neither the wolf nor the mountain agreed with such a view.” - Aldo Leopold On Monday, February 26, 2018 12:37 AM, Jim Walls via EV <ev@lists.evdl.org> wrote: On 2/25/2018 23:30, brucedp5 via EV wrote: > afib heart problems, again ...

[EVDL] EVLN: Nitty Gritty Tesla-3 Details Revealed (v)

Nitty Gritty Model 3 Details Revealed In New Video
February 19th, 2018 Steve Hanley
[videos
https://youtu.be/dxPDT843nOw
Tesla Model 3 Stripped - Part 1 - Frunk Exploration
https://youtu.be/RGzwnPgow8U
Tesla Model 3 Stripped - Part 2 - The Dark Side
]
A new video by YouTuber Ingineerix offers a perspective on the Tesla Model 3
few will ever see — the view from underneath. Entitled “Model 3 — The Dark
Side,” the video shows the viewer many of the mechanical components of the
car after the underside fairings and shields have been removed.
First up, the front of the car is revealed. Since this is a rear wheel drive
car (all early Model 3s are RWD only) there is no front drive motor
obstructing the view of the camera. The viewer can clearly see the air
conditioning compressor encased in its separate housing along with the
radiator for the battery pack cooling system. The fan for the cooling system
is an engineering tour de force with blades carefully sculpted to provide
maximum air flow with minimum noise. Tiny weights can be seen on individual
fan blades to keep the entire assembly in perfect balance.
Mounting brackets for the front motor are included in all cars, as well as
openings in the front hubs for drive shafts. Curiously, the front struts are
mounted directly in the path of those drive shafts, so dual motor versions
of the car will need to use an entirely different front strut assembly.
Ingineerix notes the top link of the front suspension is made from fiber
reinforced plastic — a first in his experience.
Details of the electrically-activated power steering and brake booster
systems are clearly visible in the video as well as the dual piston front
brake calipers. Channels in the front frame are included to accommodate the
power cables that will be needed when a front motor is mounted.
Moving to the rear of the car, Ingineerix films the details of the rear
suspension, The rear motor has an external oil filter and an electric pump,
presumably to circulate lubricant throughout the motor and gearbox assembly.
One comment on the Tesla forum suggests filter change intervals may be on
the order of once every million miles!
One detail Ingineerix noticed is that the parking brake actuator operates
directly on the rear brake caliper rather than using a separate small
caliper as many manufacturers do. It’s all part of Tesla’s commitment to
reducing the complexity of automobiles whenever possible.
If you enjoyed this video, be sure to check out Ingineerix’s other Model 3
video that explores the components of the car that live beneath the lining
of the frunk. It’s interesting information that the average owner will never
see. If there is ever a Part 3 in this series of videos, we will be sure to
let you know.

Re: [EVDL] Clutch Actuator
Hi John, For reference I'm using these pictured from ebay: 1992 automatic transmission brake pedal assembly: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/U8oAAOSwqaJaYWUY/s-l1600.jpg 1992 manual transmission combined brake clutch pedal assembly: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/o14AAOSw8-FaVSQR/s-l1600.jpg Yes. It does appear that the pedal assemblies for automatic and manual transmissions are quite different and it would be very difficult to add a clutch pedal to the brake assembly for the automatic. What I am suggesting is replacing the (single pedal) brake pedal assembly with the (two pedal) combined clutch brake pedal assembly from a manual transmission F-150. It appears that the single pedal assembly is bolted to the firewall/vacuum booster/master cylinder with 4 bolts through the firewall plus 2 bolts to a cross member above the assembly (probably the dash support). Removing these 6 bolts and the linkage to the brake master cylinder would allow the removal of this assembly. It appears that 5 of the 6 bolt holes can be reused to attach the combined two pedal assembly. If the cross member does not a have hole properly aligned for the attachment of the dual pedal assembly a new hole would need to be drilled. Reconnect brake master cylinder the linkage and you would now have the brake setup as original but with a clutch pedal flopping on the outboard side of the brake pedal. Two additional holes may need to be drilled for attaching the clutch master cylinder to the firewall and a hole cut for the linkage to the clutch master cylinder. Then attach the clutch master cylinder to the firewall and the clutch pedal. Install the slave cylinder on the transmission/bell housing. Install the hydraulic tubing between master cylinder and the slave cylinder. That being said, this does not answer your original question but is rather a follow on to another another suggestion. To address though not actually answer your original question: I have been looking for linear actuators to replace the shift and selector cables. he cables take up too much space in the engine compartment of my Fiero - space where would rather put batteries. So I have been looking to this a little. In general what I've found is that it is difficult to fine speed force and travel that would meet my requirements. I can have to of the three, almost any two but not all three. But this site might be worth a look for your problem. https://www.progressiveautomations.com/linear-actuators/stroke/1-inch/force/150-lbs <https://www.progressiveautomations.com/linear-actuators/stroke/1-inch/force/150-lbs> Click on the shopping cart to configure what you want. I chose 1" - 150 lbs and the only speed option was 0.59 inches per second. which means it would take 1.7 seconds to move the full 1". This may be a little slower that what your looking for. There may be other configuration options that would work for you. Hope this helps Cliff On 02/25/2018 07:03 PM, John Lussmyer via EV wrote: On Sun Feb 25 13:15:12 PST 2018 ev@lists.evdl.org said: https://www.ebay.com/itm/87-91-Ford-Hydraulic-Clutch-Brake-Pedal-Assembly-F150-F250-F350-Bronco-Manual/323080675802?hash=item4b391be1da:g:ri8AAOSwuA1ah8XC=mtr Perhaps F-150s had a hydraulic clutch for some years. More research is required but you may be able to pick up a used one at a salvage yard. Yes, ford trucks have had hydraulic clutches for years. As I have said, the problem is MOUTING the clutch pedal.

]
Bill Lillie collects and restores cars and Lillie’s latest rebuild is a 1931
Detroit Electric car that is powered by Thomas Edison built batteries.
“This thing hasn’t run in decades,” Lillie said.
Lillie’s Detroit Electric car is only one of three and was manufactured with
women in mind.
The car is 87-years-old and will be showcased at the Greenwich Concours in
June after it goes through some repairs.
Trained technicians will repair the body, give the exterior a new paint coat
and reupholster the interior.
“It’s original, that’s what I like about the vehicle,” Sam Willard of
Vintage Motorcars said.
The curtains inside the car are original silk, and pull down.
“They said that was a special car and they invited us to come if we could
get it restored in time,” Lillie said.
Last year Lillie showcased his 1922 Detroit Electric and took Channel 3’s
Kevin Hogan for a ride.

Re: [EVDL] Clutch Actuator
One consideration with a clutch is that you can easily overspeed the electric motor when downshifting if you miss a gear or aren’t paying attention. Relying on the synchros protects you somewhat in that case.

If you eliminate the flywheel and clutch entirely the syncros are more than adequate for up shifting and down shifting. There is very little rotational mass in the armature. This worked excellent in my 5 speed Pontiac Fiero, let off the accelerator and shift.

Bruce, if you need any transport assistance, don't hesitate to say so. I relish such day trips. I've been in three area hospitals in the past few months. All had excellent wifi. Do you know that VA does not? ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
