And the dummy of the day award goes to !?!???!!????

I sold the original shop furnace yestday as planned.
got for it what i had into it and they removed it.
was happy to get it gone.

So,put the new one in it's place,easy.
Dan my man, ( stihl waiting for gloves rob ) helped drain and move oil tank from old shop ,refill,run fuel line,etc.
%100 setup and ready to fire.
hose on bleeder valve and a container to bleed the fuel pump into.
hit the switch and within seconds,,,,,,,oil all over the place !! lots of it !!!!!!!!!!
shut it down and WTF ????

OOoppppssssssssssssssss,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, when i picked it up the guy told me it was setup for a RETURN line off the oil pump !!!
pulled out the fitting and plugged the hole and tried again....

fired right up.
then smoke,,,,,,,,,then oil leaking everyplace,,,then flame !!!!!
thing was roaring like a frieght train !!!!

shut it down dissapointed agin and went in the house to stew...

any body GUESS what was wrong ??

 

[sachsmo]

I'd guess you needed a part from the old one eh?

 

[Stihl 041S]

Hey Ron.
Post office open today??

 

[Cantdog]

You needed the return line.........plugged, the oil had no place to go but where it could...everywhere...including in the firebox....

 

[roncoinc]

After searching the internet i found when running a two pipe system as they call it when there is a return line,,a bypass plug has to be screwed up inside the hole the return line goes on to direct the excess fuel to the outlet.
on a single line like my setup that plug up inside has to be removed and it opens anothe passage for the fuel to recirculate in the pump.
what i did was put a potatoe in the tailpipe deal.
i blocked off the exit and the pump built up pressure and it had to go someplace !!

Cleanup in aisle nine !!!!!

will remove bypass plug and try again today ..

My motto is;

"the only way to avoid screwing things up is to never screw with them"

[Stihl 041S]

Well some of our engineers got a motto:
"If it ain't broke, I can fix that"

 

[sachsmo]

Yup!

Maintenance say, "If it ain't broke don't fix it!

Engineer say, "If it isn't broke, we haven't added enough improvements"

 

[Stihl 041S]

Yup!

Maintenance say, "If it ain't broke don't fix it!

Engineer say, "If it isn't broke, we haven't added enough improvements"

Zactly!!!!
