    Am I killing my diesel sprinter by letting it idle?

    On my 03 e-350, the engine rpm would go up and down, as needed, to keep the engine operating temperature normal.It worked awesome!The heat would cook you out, all the time, regardless of how cold it got, the same thing with my gasser,at an idle. I have an Espar B-4 14,000 btu heater, have to...

    On a second note, maybe a sign out sheet for the amount of towels you take into the showers,by the dispatch desk,leaving a drivers license behind, so when you return the towels, you get the license back.Just a thought.

    I use my own towels, just to ensure others have towels to use.Unless I am out of clean ones.I use one to dry off with, and one for the floor, which then gets used to wipe down the shower walls, door, ledge,and the sink and countertop.I hate to think that anyone would steal towels from here, as...

    Honda Eu1000

    Why limit yourself with such a small generator to begin with? Get a 2 or 3 k watt generator and be done with it, using it for everything you will ever need.That's why I went with the 3,200 watt Cummins/Onan, so it will be capable of running the rooftop a/c when the time comes.
