Thanks for all your thoughts on my problem. I will try to address it possibly tomorrow, keep you posted with my results.

I have a Sterling overhead furnace in my garage and it does a very good job of heating. It is about 7 years old and is good and clean. However it has started shutting down the pilot light. It relights with no problem, I replaced the thermocouple, but that didn't correct the problem. It works...

On a gas water heater , does it use less gas to run it at a low temp. setting ( I would think it would use more HOT water in a bath tub ), or to run the heater at a high setting ( and use less HOT water in the same tub and more cold):headscrat

I've got a 1970 BOSS 302 that I am rebuilding the power steering on. While I was taking out the control valve a piece of the roll pin got broken off and stuck up into the adjusting sleeve!!!! Any way I had to remove it and in doing so it damaged the threads pretty good, I don't know if they can...

Stuart in MN, thanks on the manual transfer switch info etc. I knew he would need that and extra lead cables but was not aware of the subpanel not having a lot of electrical background what does that consist of?

Does anyone have or know about the quality of a Generac 7000E portable generator? My son-in-law is in need of a generator, where they live they lose their power a lot. They can get a new 7000E unit for @ $650. It will be needed to supply enough power for their furnace, a few lights...

Yes, I have tightened the nuts and cleaned the tip different times, I think it's time to go buy another gun Thanks A-lot guys.. That P2KC-Pr looks as if it would be a good choice.
