With some help from bro., I who sent me a download for a "Mr Gasket" recirculating pressure regulator. Easily adjustable from 1/2" pound to 5 pounds. I have the regulator set in the minimum setting and the motor is responding great.
Now for the down side; Friday when I picked up the new packings from one of the blade cylinders, from the hyd shop, I forgot to make sure everything was in the box that the old and new parts were in. Went to assemble the cylinder Sat morning, and dam, NO nut to hold piston on rod. Gerrrrrrr. They wern't open Sat. so I called over this morning and it was sitting on the counter under some stuff. Well I had to go down in the valley and have some blood drawn for my upcoming second shot for my cancer treatments. They drew far more than usual ??? Anyway As I said bro. forwarded the info for pressure reg. to me and it was offered by Auto Zone store near hyd shop.
I walked in with the part # pic, and price on a paper printed off my computer. Finally a young twit with pink and purple hair and pierced earings stuck in her nose and eyebrows came to the counter. "I was impressed" lol. She looked it up and said she would have to order it. Well, I asked, how long will that take?? She punched a few more keys and said it was NLA. She sugested that I go across the arterial to the Advanced Auto store, which I did. I walked in the door and there wasn't a counter person to be found. I wandered around and finaly I hear a female voice from behind the wall behind the counter, saying that she would be write with me. OK she came out and I layed down the spec sheet in front of her. She pushed some buttons on her keyboard, and walked to an adjacent isle behind her an came back with just what I wanted. HURRAY !!! She charged me the price on my downloaded sheet and I was on my way.
That made it a good day again. I got home, and as said thing progressed well, and dozer is running.
Now the bad part again. I'm not feeling good at all. About passed out making the walk from shop to the family room. Rolled up my shirt sleeve and put the blood pressure monitor on. Blood pressure way low, and heart betting extreamly fast. Just sitting back and hopeing I feel better tomarrow. We're supposed to start tapping trees, tomarrow afternoon.
I think my crankcase is low HeHe.
