Log Book for February 16, 2004
General Engineering Report
Diego Casa Reporting
"Li'l Genny" started ok, oil ok, gas 1/2 full @1130.
Generac:
250VAC, 59.4Hz, 14.4VDC, Hobbs 5328.3 @1140
Restarted auto, oil ok and not sticky @1200
Tanks:
Tank 1(closer to Generac) 77%
Tank 2 72%
Furnace 32% @1125
Water:
Inside 45, then filled @1130
Outside high=47cm, low=32cm
Filling of the inside tank didn't start, the outside pump line was jiggled and flow started (same as yesterday). The cause is unclear.
ATVS:
#1 oil ok, gas full, started ok
#2 oil ok, gas full, started ok
#3 oil ok, gas full, was eventually made to idle without choke with some effort.
After they were warmed up, all of them were driven for a few minutes. They run better and cleaner with choke off in this weather (45-50F).
Hab: nothing to report
Suits: Mike tests - Radio #11 garbled
* Water problems: Toilet tank continued to be refilled with buckets. Pump in the 110 gal gray water tank was fished out with difficulty. A cinder block was found and moved to one side (It could not pass thru opening). A twisted aluminum measure stick was found tied to inlet hose and removed. Two lines were tied to the pump and the hose, and then disconnected. Pump was found to work, hose was probed with electrical snake and found to be blocked near tank. Work had to be interrupted at 1600 and will be resumed tomorrow morning.
