I don’t recall ever stopping for a weigh station. We had a rental business and
were hauling all sorts of stuff, mainly generator sets, on the Landoll trailer.
We had some smaller gooseneck trailers we hauled wit the same truck, too.

No CDL in those days. I worked a coupe concerts with a friend of mine who

When I was 17 I drove an old converted school bus party wagon full of drunks to

I was thinking 18 (but no way a major freight carrier's insurance will
cover you under 21) but I was wondering the same thing.
I don't think Michigan would have given me a Chauffeurs license before I

truck/bus endorsements
Privately owned and licensed separately from the trailer, maybe? It was a
single axle day cab if that mattered. Not something I ever had to deal with.
This was in the late 70s/early 80s if it mattered. I drove it all of the time
picking up and dropping off equipment, never had a problem.

That number seems reasonable for a late model CDI, or even low for a 250CDI.
What could you get from a 606 turbo in front of a five speed auto in a

Thanks for the explanation. I'm still skeptical on real-world effectiveness.
I wonder what kind of SEER or net cooling capacity these things deliver? Using
room air to cool the hot coil should make the supply air nice and cool at the
expense of sucking hot, humid outside air into the space.

Can't always do that. I've seen at least three different
rod-to-cylinder interfaces.

Once the lines and cylinders are full of oil, the clutch spring

Some (more expensive) models have intake and exhaust, which I would assume
would need some degree of separation, or you'd just be sucking the exhaust

I can watch the reservoir then cut the length I need. I will then pump the line
