    Re: Diesel Winter Mileage

    The trailer is on its last leg, but I wanted it to last at least one more year. After this incident I didn't trust the wiring. I traced the feed from the inlet plug to the distribution...

    Re: Harman Coal Stoves

    After playing around with this stove I tend to agree. If you are going to use coal a stoker is probably the way to go. Using a hand fired stove requires you to be one with the stove. It's a lot of...

    Re: Fuel Line Freezing - Oil Furnace

    You might also want to consider a two line fuel system. After going through the fuel filter the excess fuel that is not used bypasses and gets pumped back into the tank.

    Re: Harman Coal Stoves

    I got a good load of coal going last night. Once it was going good I shut the air damper down so that it was just barely open. I came back about ten hours later and the fire was still glowing. I...

    Well.
    I banked the fire down relatively low and left for about six hours. When I returned the stove still had glowing coal but it had burned down pretty far. Two hours of coaxing brought the fire...

    Well, I slept "late" this morning ( 8 AM ) and the coal stove was dead cold. There was a bed of coals that was in fact all ash except for the occasional burning ember. There was no way to get it...

    Re: Harman Coal Stoves

    I'm continuing to experiment with the stove. If I shake it down every two hours and add coal it works beautifully. When I shake it I use an extremely short "vibrating" stroke and shake out just...

    Harman Coal Stoves

    Does any one have experience with Harman coal stoves ? Initially I was impressed with the stove. It seemed to be well built and the shaker grates seemed like a good design. However, after using the...
