Hi! you need to split the piece of new hose you cut off and put it over the
new hose where it rubs the frame to keep it from wearing a hole in your new
hose! I love all the videos! Keep up the great job! Brad๏ปฟ
Don’t you just hate the parts that are designed to fail when they do it at
the most inopportune times. How did your 2012 fire season turn out after
all the preparations?
Jeff: Your are bringing back memories of my 17 years in The Galax Virginia
Vol. Fire Dept. from 1970 to 1987. I used to drive and operate some older
tankers and pumpers. We are part City of 9000 and rural 47000 people.. We
had to take our water with us on the rural County fires. We used hydrants
and tankers on the city fires also. We depended on and they still run
mutual aid with surounding Towns. Please keep the great videos coming to us
on the East coast.—WAGIII
BWA HA HA HA HA!!! ( My version of LOL) The stones came from it’s previous
life as a genuine fire truck. I don’t dip without a strainer. Pumps cost a
big chunka change.
Us old school truckers called that the Detroit slobber. I used to ride with
my uncle when I was a kid.He had an old A model KW with a 12 V71 Detroit in
it. What a classic old truck.
Detroit Diesels are notorious for doing what’s called “wet stacking”.
Because they’re 2 strokes, they’re designed to run on the high end of the
rpm range. When left to idle, low rpm or light load fro extended periods of
time, they tend to get wet inside. EPA had a real problem with the air box
drains. Part of the reason they no longer build them.

To the contrary, I truly appreciate when these fail. Just like shear pins
in the flywheel of the hay baler. The key going BANG means the pump didn’t!

back?? lol nice work Rog

I cant take credit for it being an original idea. I’ve seen the results of
Mr Bubble in a city park fountain – bubbles of fun ๐
671 non-turbo.
just think how much fun you could have by puttin 2 cases of Mr Bubble in
that water tank ๐
