put some epson salt in the battery and charge it ,5w30 is recomended

[@Chooman69]

Nice job

[@fordwindsor351]

You can't weld with a torch but braise yes.

[@starpuss]

Um... YES you can! You can both braze and weld using the oxygen acetylene torch

[@fordwindsor351]

welding though with a torch is not the preferred method, it just lays out slag. its mainly for heating/cutting. Plus, the work done is weak. in my initial post, I should of said "you shouldn't" . Welded for 6 years while in the USN and gas welding is a joke.

get her done snows coming quick lol

[@redneckbryon]

For your battery you should run a small car battery you should have the room in that tracker for one.

[@starpuss]

Yes that's what I am going to do.

at 15:45 the idler is ment to be the way it is on your blower... mine is like that too

[@thenorth03]

I think that would be a vent,,, (the spring thing),

[@starpuss]

Looks like it , And I think ill have to put some oil in there , seeing it got hot after 20 min of blowing snow last week.

[@thenorth03]

yeah, when the unit heats up, the vent will open and relieve any pressure, saves the seals etc.
