Just changed out the belt for the raw water pump on the primary generator, not a fun job since it requires removing the pump which is almost inaccessible. Also adjusted the belt for the alternator while I was in there , plus changed the oil and filter. Hopefully it's good to go for a while, maybe a little fishing later. |

Yes, and Sheetrock is the trademark of a US manufacturer of gypsum board. Casady It's one of those trademarks that has slipped into general usage. I had a 1939 book on how to drive tunnels. It referred to the common 90 pound vertical drilling hammer as a JackHammerTM [Ingersoll Rand], some forty years after it was introduced. Now half the jackhammer users don't even know who Ingersoll Rand is. Casady |
