Where should I look. Kidding. My truck was made when I was a junior in high school.

No automobile solenoids have confused me.

ya. or run it to the grill, near the winch and controller, allowing a person to monitor the winch, rather than wiring the controller to the cab.

Thanks. Kinda think that the distributor cap/ rotor had been replaced recently. Timing hasn't been set that I'm aware of.

Well, carbon could be a camel breaking straw. Thanks. What a pool of knowledge at the TreeHouse!

a job for a real mechanic

Do you reckon the 'dieseling' is from a bad carb? Thanks for finding it.

ok. thanks.

429 gas in an F600

Seems part of my problem is an exhaust leak, causing too low of idle for the external voltage regulator to activate the charging system. My mechanic showed me the idle screw. If I turn it up, the gas engine ruins smoother, but "diesels" when I shut it off... sputters and doesn't quit running...

I think my alternator is around 95 amps. To run them in parallel, how would I hook it up. As is. I have the battery under the passenger step on a shelf. The easiest, shortest wire would be to set up the wires, and rest the other battery on the passengers step. A step further would be to have...

Maybe too much draw killed the alternator. I'm going to get it tested today, since my new employee flaked out. After agreeing to having paid working day today, she thought she should have a job guaranteed or not. I guess not.

I think that the only computer in the 1990 f600 is my smartphone. Thanks all the same. Good info.

Thanks.

Thanks. Ramsey winch. I'll get to it. Skipped work, by and large today, sick nanny, slightly sick kid dripping her off with mom in a bit. I can get more restful sleep without a cuddling, flip flopping toddler in bed. I won't likely get back over to my truck until Friday, at best. I'm coming...

Resources are still finite. Action happens when opportunity, resources, and motivation all line up. My truck hasn't been home in the weeks either, and I'm short one out of two groundies.

Burnham, you're right. If I had more time and resources, then a lot of things would be different.

If the heart of the matter is just not having it revved enough, that'll be easy enough to remedy. The battery charger will be good just to get it wound cleanly for now. I like the idea of running the batteries together. We'll see if all that is in the cards on this truck. I'd never...

This was my original thought. I have a 2a/ 6a/ 50a switch on my charger. I could at least unwind and rewind it for storage in the mean time. With the last stump, I just wanted to get home, so the cable is sorta could and strapped under the winch cover. I must have had other fires to put out.

Yes and no. I thought about this. The remote control for the winch doesn't reach to the drivers seat. Two groundies required. Hadn't thought about that. I'm use to a hydraulic winch that is really powerful. This troubleshooting help is a big help.
