Well...... (said Ronald Regan)

Well.....I didn't get my plasma diodes today, so hopefully tomorrow. This weekend looks to have some great testing. I'm making extra diode strings in case of other sting failures. My spark plugs are gapped to .035" so I will always get a plasma spark, not at .050" or .080" like I've done before.

I pressure tested the system on Monday and it worked great. I had 2 leaks which were fixed quickly. I started on making designs for the tank cage on Saturday and finished it today. Now I have a cage that will stop the tank from sliding around from my crazy driving. After the pressure test I had to turn the idle down on the Dodge. I think it cleaned out all the old carbon in my cylinder heads, off my pistons, and out of the rings. The Dodge seems to run a little bit better now after the pressure test and the water was misted through the engine. At one point it was blowing steam out 3 feet from the tail pipe. I bet that really cools down the engine down too. Wonder if I need a hotter thermostat? Hmm I'll ask my junk yard dog. That is another reason to use warm water. With Winter here I worry the cold air will deform the performance of the tests. Hope not.

I got a 150$ tetanus shot today. That was the public option. Good for ten years, so I guess that is 15$ a year.

I got the last bolts tightened up and the skid plate put back on the Dodge. The weather has been so cool I haven't had any vapor lock, but I must get that heat shield on tomorrow or the next day.

When I done the pressure test on the misting setup on the Dodge, the water was so much it would kill the engine if left on for very long while the engine was idle. I know the water was putting out the spark on the plug in the cylinder. I can't wait to get some plasma going so it won't do that!!!

I didn't put the in-line heater on the wheel well because I haven't gotten the extra tank for the water temp sensor. When I get that tank I'll mount them both to the wheel well just under the misting pump.

I've had to buy a heating pad (70WATT) and a radiator block heater (600WATTS) for the Dodge. I'm going to put a circulating pump/heater (60WATTS) on a return line with the water tank. So in the Winter it will use about 720WATTS to keep the whole rig warm. That is less than my little heater for my trailer (1500WATTS). Hell, it might even be warmer than my trailer. So if anyone asks me what am I going to do about it freezing?? Now you know. It's pretty simple. I'm sure you could have figured it out on your own.

I need a corporate law firm. I can Google corporate law firms (thanks), but does anyone have any recommendations? Yea, I know Lawyers are thieves. So I'd be willing to offer some stock for a life time commitment of a good lawyer or law firm. That will hopefully keep their commitment at high standards. I just made two Asia connections and my European connection is already in place.

c'mon Lord, give me some superb test results!!!

    try some 100 ohm fusing resistors be for your diodes some sites say this will help with this problem good luck!!
