Recently I bought an old monkey wards generator, about 1350 watts. I paid about scrap value for it because had been sitting for a while outside and had some issues, stuck valve etc. Well, This morning I got it running and the light bulb didn't come on, so I used the trick that I learned on here. I plugged in an electric drill and gave the chuck a spin, and sure enough it started generating! Thank you YT!! Now if we can only get Dave2 back! |

| It is a 40 year old Craftsman 3/8 variable speed that only runs wide open for the last 30 years! I plugged into wall power first and ran it to make sure it was excited! |

| Sometimes that does work and is a good safe way to flash the fields. Other times it must be done with a battery. |

| Good riddance to Dave2 if he was saying some of the things about lynching and KKK that I saw going around. |

| In cases where it is clear cut and undeniable. Nothing wrong with hanging criminals. We have an ex airforce Comander plus a couple Bernardo"s that need to be roped up. Some thugs that shot up the Eatons shopping mall over some perceived gang insult and/or dope dealing territory war need taken care of. |
