I think I’ll be more occupied with things like “best pit toilet for after SHTF”.
Ever seen a setup like that for a blower?An electric clutch pulley, just like an a/c compressor has.
It's interesting how naïve a lot folks are when it comes unrest isn't it? Otherwise intelligent people that think their plan is a good one because it's what they thought up?
Kinda like those who's SHTF "get home" plan consist of looting their way home.
Sure have.Ever seen a setup like that for a blower?
What's the thought behind wanting to turn it on or off?Sure have.
Ogura and Eaton offer optional electric clutches on superchargers.
I got worried about this and bought a 300 gallon fuel tank about 4 years ago. I have yet to fill it up but if there's no electricity, there are no gas pumps and no atms. However, if I keep cash at the house I've discovered I just send up buying guns and trucks...Since this thread is in the preparedness section, I wonder how much fuel we all keep on hand for emergencies?
Even though your diesel truck might run on any number of fuels, do you have an amount of those various fuels on hand so you don't have to venture out into Mad Max land to try to find them? Trying to find fuel, even odd fuel, while others are in the same hunt as you?
For the same reasons a/c compressors have them. It improves the flexibility of a supercharged engine as to turn it off when it's not needed.What's the thought behind wanting to turn it on or off?
Seems you need to loosen up the money.I got worried about this and bought a 300 gallon fuel tank about 4 years ago.

Sidebar, country mark said delivery is free if you buy at least 200 gallons I think. There's no discount for bulk purchase though. My goal was to buy when it hit 3.17/gal but money was too tight at that time.
Money's so tight I stripped the bolt and threw the wrench in the woods.Seems you need to loosen up the money.

Remember when some stores were open 24/7?I keep a few 5 gallon metal gas cans. They have saved me more than once since the 'rona, as normal gas stations are no longer open 24/7.
And this is why I'm looking for an old FJ40 Landcruiser to plop a mechanically injected diesel into. You can virtually rebuild the entire truck on the trail with just 15 hand tools. No ecu's/programming required, no ignition boxes or digital dash etc. Just what is needed run and drive.Who would give a poop about parts when your ride is dead with the lack of fuel.
