Halp! Oil sensor shutdown

@Infinity Honda and steep go hand in hand. :rofl: I had a beater 96 civic that I needed to replace one cv joint on. Dealer wanted $250, Advanced wanted $50. Guess which one I bought? Lasted till I sold it too if ai remember right!

Yeah, I donā€™t think theyā€™re going to replace something I fried by my ineptitude. I mean, itā€™d be niceā€¦ but Iā€™m not expecting it.

@Infinity Who knows, maybe! Maybe you discovered a faulty part that isnā€™t standing up to the Honda name.:grin:

It really shouldā€™ve sent up a red flag when I reconnected the battery that last time, and the machine just started up on its ownā€¦ but at that point in my day, I was so frustrated and annoyed, that I was just grateful to hear it running again. But yeah, that shouldā€™ve sounded alarm bells that I had cross-wired something. :man_facepalming:

Iā€™m just grateful that it was something simple like the starter, and not the ECU :cold_sweat:

I think Iā€™m going to spring for a kubota diesel for my next build! I like it when things are more simple and you donā€™t need a computer and software out in the field.

I love mine, sips fuel round 3/4 gallon an hour with 130Ā° water all day long.

130 degree water, is that fuel consumption for a both diesel motor and a heater?

Yes sirā€¦

Yeah, thatā€™s nice!

Yeah we went all in last year on the SS marine grade Landa with a Kubota diesel and 120v burner and Iā€™m very happy with it after the first initial sticker shock. Knock on wood its been or bull out of all 3 machines.

Very nice! Iā€™m trying to buy/build the best I can afford right now. Too much downtime can add up quick!
