|
WHAT IS THE ENGINGE AUX COOLER?
|
WHEN WATER TEMP REACHES 200, CRACK, AND IT TAKES WATER FROM DISCHARGE SIDE AND SENDS IT THROUGH COPPER TUBING IN THE HEAT EXCHANGER.THE HOT WATER FROM THE RADIATOR GOES THROUGH THE OUTSIDE OF THE COPPER TUBING, STABILIZING THE HEAT, IT THEN ENTERS THE INTAKE SIDE
|
|

|
WHAT 2 TIMES WILL YOUR COMPOUND GAUGE READ VACUUM?
|
WHEN YOU ARE DRAFTING
WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO PUMP MORE THAN SUPPLIED |
|
|
STEPS FOR DRAFTING?
|
HOOK HARD SUCTIONS TOGETHER WITH STRAINER, TIE TO ROOF LADDER, LOWER INTO WATER AT LEAST 24 INCHES,PUT TRUCK INTO PUMP,THROTTLE UP TO 800-1000 RPMS,PULL PRIMER AND WATCH THE COMPOUND GAUGE WILL GO INTO VACUUM, AND PUMP PRESSURE WILL READ PRESSURE ON PUMPS, RELEASE PRIMER AND OPEN HIGHEST 2 1/2 DISCHARGE.
|
|
|
WHAT IS TO VOLTAGE METER?
|
IGNITION READS 12 VOLTS, WHEN STARTING ENGINE IT WILL DROP AND GO TO RUNNING VOLTAGE-13.8, IF IT MOVES SLOWLY-WEAK OR DEAD CELL, IF GOES BEYOND-REGULATOR IS STUCK OPEN AND WILL BOIL YOUR BATTERY,IF GOES TO BATTERY VOLTS(12) THEN ALTERNATOR BELT IS BROKEN,OR A LOOSE WIRE, OR BAD ALTERNATOR
