A look inside a gas water heater (p.s. change your anode).
My gas water heater failed after about 8 years. It was leaking just a tad. I replaced it and there are tons of god vids on that but I thought I would post an autopsy for those interested.

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you search for [your brand battery] "power wheels adaptor" on Amazon, you can find ones for almost any battery brand. Just remember, if you wire it directly, make sure your light is good for the voltage range AND that you never let it drain the battery dead because with no low voltage protection, it can damage you battery if you let it go dead.

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You could wire one of these in and set the min voltage to be just above the min voltage of your battery. I did this for a led coleman lamp conversion where i want to let it run all night, but for the snowblower i just make sure to pull the battery before it gets low.

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No, it's a manual. I am weird and prefer manual. I overrode the reverse lockout so i can just press down on the foot shift to get reverse...leaving both hands on handlebars with one running throttle and one running winch. Much easier than taking hand off to work a gear selector. I think some new autos are adding an override button to left grip so you can hit it to get reverse quick when plowing.

    Also slide a 88 inch pressure treated 4x4 inside the bumper cavity and sctew it on toght to the top and rear. Makes the 1/8 inch thick bumper tube more rigid. You do lose the poop pipe storage though.

  • @origamigek
    @origamigek ปีที่แล้ว

    Wait so does it pivot where it is attached to the bike? If yes, is that good? If no, why not, did you make it that way and how?

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 ปีที่แล้ว

      The pivot is the fact that I used one hole thru the seat post so the pvc can turn. Since the seat post is at like a 20-degree angle, it will tend to fall back to center (rearward). Pro: the rotation lets the bike absorb trailer sway and makes it more stable pedaling. Con: in braking, it can "jack up," and the nose of the trailer can go to the side. To combat this, I also made a version where the larger outer tube was longer and went all the way to the front stem of the bike. Then I cut a notch for the stem so the outer pvc couldn't rotate at all. This stops any jacking and keeps things straight, but the trailer will sway the bike a bit and make it appear you've had a few pints. Hope this makes sense.

    • @origamigek
      @origamigek ปีที่แล้ว

      Ah thanks, yeah I'm a bit worried about the braking. After quite some research I think I'm going to use the WeeRide bike hitch instead, with a perforated steel bar or maybe wood.

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually, pretty good. You can open the other window flaps if it's not raining, but even with full fly down, if it's hot, we use our 20v dewalt fan on low and it's fine. I would say if you are out west and never plan to do snow camping, then a spring bar tent is probably best. If camping in winter or with lots of rain and storms...the Alaskan Guide tent is great. It does take a few extra minutes of set-up.

  • @matticus6339
    @matticus6339 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice job, just shows going against the grain of what people say isn't always bad. What do you think about a 2WD pulling a ATV trailer loaded with firewood? All the 4x4s I am finding have been used and abused but see some nice 2WD out there but wondering even with good tires if it will pull heavy firewood out of the woods, no mud to deal with, just hills.

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 ปีที่แล้ว

      It really all depends on where you live. If its really hilly, a 2WD may struggle, but if it's not, a 2WD may be fine. Also if pulling in deep snow or clay mud a 2wd may struggle. With those foot wide bear claws on the back of my Ozark, I have never got stuck trail riding in Michigan with others with big 4x4s. In Tennessee, there were some uphill creekbed trails I couldn't do that the 4x4 guys could...though they struggled too. Other thing is, these are really light, so when they do get stuck, a small wimch or some muscle will get them out easier.

    • @matticus6339
      @matticus6339 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@billmonroe7328 Thank you for the info. I found a old 2000 model Honda Rancher 350 4x4 earlier this week and got it, over all its in pretty good shape, it does need some work but I will work through that stuff and hopefully be pulling firewood out of the woods soon.

    • @billmonroe7328
      @billmonroe7328 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just use link below and put in your light wattage (actual, not "equivalent") times hours you want and your operating voltage to see amp hours you need. The led I used is 12 watt, so 12w x 2hrs =24 watt hrs and at 20 volts thats 1.2 amp hrs, so my 2.5 ah battery is fine for my 2 hour usage.
